People always say that if God closed a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you. Yes, people always say that, but 36 is the window for me?
I am not disappointed, just a little worried 37 as my roommate said, “ Why are you angry with yourself once you 38 to do anything?” I have no idea. I just can’t 39 me if I can’t understand some easy things. Currently, I just feel__ 40 _with myself because I couldn’t finish the assignment on the lab, and what was 41 worse was that actually I did not understand what the 42 was! Fiona asked me why I didn’t 43 for help. The problem is that if I have to ask some silly questions, I will feel 44 .
Before I came here I was confident. But I have totally lost it. Sometimes I can’t__ 45 find the right words; sometimes I am too shy to 46 others. I have to admit that I am 47 .
The wisest people are always 48 who can take advantage of others’ wisdom. But I was so stupid as to close myself and 49 a lot of time soaking inside the workbook, 50 made me more confused. Why can’t I follow the sentence? I am 51 to get help the next time I have any questions. I can 52 I am not smart, but I shouldn’t hide it. I must 53 it as soon as possible. 54 I will have to waste much more time on it—just like tonight.
Difficulties always go with me. Go 55 ! I can make it.
