Good morning!
Today is the fifth session for the C1 league.
It means that it’s the last session for this season.
The top five people will move to the next league, and I’m number 13 right now. At the moment I have a difference of 100 points with the person on 5th place, so it will be very hard to move up, but I’ll do my best, with all my might!
Writing this right now I suddenly realized that I often use the words “do my best, with all my might.”
Back in junior high, our teacher used to say “‘with all my might’ isn’t an expression you should simply use just for any reason.” She actually said why, but I forgot (even though it was such an important thing ^^;).
But ever since then I’ve used this phrase a lot and I ended up actually doing my best, so these words are “with all my might!” and doing things “with all my might,” so these words impacted my actions.
Even now, whenever I’m about to write “with all my might” in a blog or something, or when I’m about to say it, I stop for a second but since I really mean it when I say it, I doubt my teacher would be mad if I used the expression. I only use it at times when I really feel that way. ^^
I forgot the exact point of what she said, but I think she meant we shouldn’t just use this phrase casually.
Anyway, see you later!
