Someone who has integrity always does what they feel is right. They are leaders and with great pride. They are always in control of the situation that they are in. Someone with great integrity is never going to lower there pride in themselves. Integrity stands for soundness, completeness and honesty. Without integrity you are considered a low grade human being, someone who is going to lower themselves to someone else's level because they are not strong, and have no pride in themselves, no self esteem, and most of all no integrity.

I thought that I was better than everyone else. He treats me different; he treated me with respect and as an adult individual and not a little kid student. All the group projects that I did alone, all the extra time spent in honors and taking everything to a whole new level was worthless right Wrong I am still happy that I accomplished all I did. 0 GPA they act so shocked and surprised. I know it will be hard and possibly impossible but I will try as hard as I can to do it.
