Part of a Group

A time that I was part of a group was when I joined Academic Decathlon. The first year that I was part of it the topic was Latin America, and I lost interest and left. The next year the topic was the French Revolution and even though that wasn't really my favorite thing in the world, I stayed because the members of the group were all very nice and helped me with the material. When we took a trip to New York City, everyone got a lot closer. We were always together, and everyone became a close-knit group of friends. No one was left out. This experience showed me that being part of a group isn't always bad; before that I usually avoided groups in favor of being on my own.
