My Cousin Has Changed a Lot

By Karen Flores Machuca

My cousin has changed a lot. He has transformed his mind and body; I can see a lot of differences in him. The changes in him have been extreme. In school, he was overweight and introverted. However, he looks very different at this time. He is thinner than before and he looks skinny. At school, he was shy and he did not have a lot of friends. Now, he is known by everyone in the streets. When he was a teenager, he wore really ugly clothes because he was overweight and clothes did not fit him. Now, he looks cool and is concerned about his look. I think he is happier than before because he loves the things that he does and he is always smiling. I really enjoy seeing that. Before he did not participate in anything because of his insecure personality, whereas now, he studies electricity in college and he works in two radio stations as an entertainer. He is a hard working and extroverted and he loves it. Some people have told him he should leave one job, but he does not want it. He feels confident about himself, and he thinks he can do lots of things with the time he has but the important thing is that he has changed to better himself. I am surprised how a person can change their life style (physically and emotionally) and how someone can feel better because of a transformation. I think he has changed a lot from this. And what really matters is that now he is a happier successful person.
