“Through the Tunnel” Prove Yourself Paragraph

The time when I had to prove myself by reaching my goal was when I was beginning to lose my outing priveleges because of my grades. My dad told me that he had noticed my grades slipping and said I needed to get them up in order to go out and hang with friends. In a matter of weeks I proved to my dad that I was capable of reaching my goal and he was very impressed but still wanted me to push myself because he told me that he knew I could do it, and that I am smart enough. He added that he wants me to have a better life than he had and more opportunities. Once I reached that next goal he gave me my priveleges back and told me how proud he was of me.
