Everythings better together

[Applause]

i’m vivian and i’m nine years old and

i’m michelle

and i’m seven michen and i are sisters

and we do a lot of things together we go

to the same school

and even take many after school classes

together

like piano violin ballet

painting tennis and skiing and horse

riding

we also speak four different languages

including english mansion french

and even beginner spanish it is easy to

practice

because we can speak it to each other

even though

we spend a lot of time and do many

things together

we are still different in many ways for

example

my favorite subject in school is english

and i really love drawing

because it makes me happy my favorite

thing to draw

is cute animals and when i grow up

i want to be an artist because i like to

create art projects

my favorite artist is papa picasso i

really like his artwork titled

the old guitarist because i like how he

used the colors in that painting

my favorite subject is squish art and i

really like to paint

i especially like to paint sunsets

because i like how the different colors

mix together to create a beautiful

vivid scene i also like to design things

and that is why when i grow up i want to

be a fashion designer

i always love and go look in my mom’s

closet sometimes i secretly try them on

when she isn’t looking

she has many designer brands but i want

to design my own brand for her

and i know she’ll love it vegan and i

spend most of

our time with each other we study

together play together

and just have a lot of fun together

whenever one of us needs help

the other is always there and it makes

us better at the things we do

i helped vivian improve her french at

the very beginning

and later on she improved so much that

we are at the same level now

and can have a conversation together in

french

i don’t think she could have done it

without my help

when we work together we are stronger

and we are happier

and we improve faster i hope michelle in

music theory class

and also in piano practice now michelle

understands music better

she easily got through the difficult

part of piano practice

and got an excellent score in the class

recently

i don’t think she could have done it was

all by herself

we not always get along and that is okay

sometimes vivian can be bossy and

sometimes michelle does not listen to me

however none of these take away the love

that we have for each other

i love my sister because she is funny

calm and is good with words

she is also very open and honest she

always speaks her mind

i love my sister because she is kind

smart

and thoughtful she is patient

considerate

and respectful of others and she is now

very good listener the reason why

we can learn so many things and be good

at it is because

both fabian and i have perseverance

our mom taught us that and our teacher

instilled in us

is what makes us successful in school

and our other activities

perseverance is what keeps you going

when you feel like giving up

but more importantly we are a team

we have each other always

and when you’re a part of a team

persevering is

easier when you’re a part of a team you

achieve so much

more faster you always have the support

of your teammates

i have learned a lot from my sister and

i know that i’m lucky to have her with

one important lesson i have learned is

that nobody

is perfect there is no person who knows

everything

and there’s always something new to

learn from people

when you have a partner like i have my

sister

you have someone to correct you when you

say the wrong thing

or help you get through difficult tasks

but you have to open yourself with

working with others

you have to be willing to make friends

and be nice to them

when they try to teach you something you

don’t know you should be humble

and listen to them and when they need

help

you should be kind enough to help them

in return

sometimes you won’t get along with these

people

and sometimes you may even have a

misunderstanding

just like we do but that should not take

away the love and respect they have for

each other

when you have a problem instead of

thinking about your feelings

think about what they are trying to help

you with it could turn out to be better

for you but you just

don’t see it yet having a sister

or a friend to help you with everything

you do is the best thing that you can

ever ask for

my sister and i have a lot of fun

together

when we are chatting playing the piano

or doing other fun things

everything is better together

we have other friends outside of each

other and we spend some time with them

too

i have friends vivian has her friends

and sometimes we all play together

michelle’s her own person and i’m my own

person

we have many differences but we also

share many similarities

she doesn’t enjoy eating tomatoes like i

do and i don’t enjoy eating chocolate

like she does

everyone is special in your own way

every single person

is unique in their thoughts actions and

ideas

everyone is different but just like

michelle and i

everyone should learn how to work

together we can achieve more when we

work together and we can get

there faster when we work as a team

we want each other to succeed and we

will do everything we can to help

we have the full support of each other

and that

feels amazing it doesn’t always have to

your sister or brother that you team up

with it could be your friends or family

you can play with them chat with them

and you score with them

whenever you have help them

when they need it and watch them do the

same for you

i want to encourage all of us to create

a team

just like vivian and i have ours we are

a team

and we love and support each other

everything we do

feels better together and we will not

have it any

other way

[Applause]
