After talking with Mr Hudson yesterday, it was clear that I had to improve people's opinions of me if I wanted to gain their recognition. In my mind, I hadn't expected them to accept or like me. I realized this wouldn't be easy to do with my current situation. However, I should try to reduce their misconception of me, even if it was just a little.
Thinking back on Nina and Aslan's advice, I understood that to win the crowd, I should face this head-on and show them my true self rather than creating a fake persona. Thus, I planned to seek their respect instead of their favor. It would be easier that way, too. Honestly, I wasn't confident if I could force myself to maintain a smiley face all day.
I would begin my plan starting from today.
