$I used to be a very self-centered person, but in the past two years I have really changed. I have started to think about other people\_\_36\_\_I think about myself. I am happy that I am becoming a\_\_37\_\_person.$

$I think my \_\_38\_\_started when I was at Palomar College. At first, I just wanted to get my\_\_39\_\_and be left alone. I thought I was smarter than everyone else, so I hardly ever\_\_40\_\_ to anyone in my classes. By the end of my first semester, I was really\_\_41\_\_. It seemed as if everyone but me had made friends and was having fun. So tried a(n) \_\_42\_\_. I started asking people around me how they were doing, and if they were having trouble I\_\_43\_\_ to help. That was really a big\_\_44\_\_for me. By the end of the year, I had several new friends, and two of\_\_45\_\_are still my best friends today.$

$A bigger cause of my new\_\_46\_\_, however, came when I took a part-time job at a Vista Nursing Home. One old lady there who had Alzheimer$’$s disease became my\_\_47\_\_ . Every time I came into her room, she was so \_\_48\_\_ because she thought I was her daughter. Her real daughter never\_\_49\_\_her, so I took her place. She let me \_\_50\_\_that making others feel good made me feel good, too. When she died, I was\_\_51\_\_, but I was very grateful to her.$

$I think I am a much\_\_52\_\_ person today than I used to be, and I hope I will not\_\_53\_\_ these experiences. They have \_\_54\_\_ me to care about other people more than about myself. I \_\_55\_\_who I am today, and I could not say that a few years ago.$

【要点综述】本文叙述了“我”丛以自我为中心的一个人到关心关爱他人的一个人的蜕变。丛最开始在PalomatCollege开始认识到这个问题而做出改变到“我”做兼职时的巨大改变，现在的“我”已经是一个能主动关心关爱他人的一个人了。
