Last year when I was in 8th grade I joined the track and field team. My main event that I did was the 100 meter dash I got an amazing time of 13.7 seconds, apparently I ended up qualifying for states in that race. I also made a solar system poster that took a lot of work but I got an A+,on it. The project was an extra credit project. When I was in 6th grade there was a Christmas competition where I had to dress up as a certain Christmas character. I was one of the winners in the competition, I was in third place. During 7th grade, I undertook a chemistry project to design a Beryllium molecule. I made the atom using plastic balls as electrons, and the nucleus. This was a three-dimensional presentation of Beryllium. I scored an
I have contributed to the following extra- curricular projects: three years of SWAT, four years of Raider Riot, three years of varsity Cross Country, four years of varsity Weightlifting, and four years of varsity Softball. I completed my goal of being a part of my high school in any ways possible and if I had to do it again I would do the same
Appendix D contains ten sentences in which my transferable, content, and stylistic skills were applied to an experience which occurred in my life. This is exercise 6-4 in the textbook. My transferable skills included “coached”, “listened”, “helped”, and even “evaluated”. It would seem as though I should be in a profession where listening, helping and evaluating are all integrated into a day’s work. By being a physician, I would be “coaching” patients, in a sense, by directing and guiding them back to their normal health state.
As I am quickly approaching the end of my senior, I am looking back at how far I have come since freshman year and everything that Henley High School has helped me accomplish in my life. In preparation for the life that every senior must experience after school, the senior capstone project was put in place to help seniors find out what they would suit them as career and give them some of the necessary tools in achieving that. Part of the capstone was earning service hours at a non profit organization, that can go on a resume. With serving came a facilitator, who guides one’s service, and also the challenges and success of the service itself. To Provide help on future careers, Henley High School also provided an opportunity to take the CIS test
Ever since I was a little girl, I had always dreamed of having a house that had a stair case within it. A house with a stair case, among with many other dreams, have been coming along slowly. Until my freshman year, I did not try to chase my dreams because of the fear of being challenged. When my freshman year of high school came along, I tried to get involved. I got the class of JROTC and did my best to contribute to the class until I had certain health issues.
“THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!” I could hear my heart racing at what felt like 1,000 beats every minute that had passed. My stomach felt like it was tied up in knots as I was dripping with sweat from my head to my toes.
“Crack”, “click” was what I heard before the most excruciating pain I have ever felt filled my right knee. It was on October 7th, it was just weeks before my junior season was going to start. I was at Massillon Washington high school at wrestling practice like I was almost every day. I was drilling with the assistant coach Percy McGee hitting single legs which was my favorite move. About 40 seconds into the drill I hit another single and all of a sudden my knee locked at about 90 degrees.
Duty log I picked up duty phone at 5pm, began my office hours at 6pm to 8pm. During this time span I received zero calls, nor did I receive any office visits. I began my first round at 8:05 after my office hours to discover housekeeping room 3005 slightly opened. I knocked on the door, received no response.
Bombshelter Story It was November thirteenth, 2017. I was having “issues” with finding the “right” person. So naturally I invited eight acquaintances to my home to meet with a psychologist I found on craigs list. Within minutes of my acquaintances arriving the air raid siren goes off. Quickly turning on my radio the Civil Defense station announces that Russian planes are rapidly approaching Douglas.
It was a usual Saturday morning. I lay in my restful bed feeling comforted, as it seems to cradle me in its soft hands. I felt alone. My long-term boyfriend, Michael, and I were fighting again. I changed into my yoga attire, slipped on my remarkable red Nikes and drove off to the gym.
My SAE is based around horses. I own one horse, whom I am planning to show this coming year. Tag is very talented when it comes to English flat work, so we will be competing in such competitions. He is currently my only horse, and in order to compete in harder shows I will need to get a more advanced horse. Until then, we will compete in beginner shows.
I was twelve years old and our church sound system was outdated and in need of replacement. Much to my excitement, we were connected with a sound technician named Jon, who specialized in sound and lighting installs for churches. Although extremely capable by himself, he was asking for volunteers from the church to help him with certain aspects of this particular install. Immediately, I volunteered. Being the small kid that I was, one of my jobs was to crawl underneath the two and a half foot stage and pull sound cable from the sound booth to the stage.
I was born in California, but I lived most of my life in Idaho and Washington. Some of the things that interest me are to make things with Legos, and to watch documentaries. Eye Witness videos that we’d check out from the library are the best. I was in a home link program up until seventh grade. A home link program is you do your main curriculum at home, but you get to go to a class or classes once or twice a week.
A fun thing we did a bit later in the semester is we went to on a field trip that took us to one of Santa Monica 's mountains to get rid of some of the invasive crayfish. Of course we had to do observations on these crayfish and it was pretty fun. I was a bit nervous to grab the crayfish at first but with some help from my friend Jonathan I finally got the courage to do it.
Personal Narrative A member in my family has an illness, not like most illnesses that come to mind, such as cancer or other diseases. This illness affects my family 's lives. Most people don´t understand how it can affect others, but it does affect like how most sicknesses do. Many people suffer from this illness. This illness is called alcoholism.
The way through the challenge is to get still and ask yourself what is the next right move, not think about what is the next right move and then from that space make the next right move and the next right move, and not to be overwhelmed by it because you know your life is bigger than that one moment you know you're not defined by what somebody says is a failure for you because failure is just there to point you in a different direction. Nothing about my life is lucky, nothing. Lot of grace, a lot of blessings, a lot of divine order, but I don’t believe in luck. For me, luck is preparation meeting the moment of opportunity. There is no luck without you being prepared to handle that moment of opportunity, and so what I would say for myself is that because of my hand in hand and a force greater than my own, I have been prepared in ways that I didn't even know I was being prepared for, and the truth is for me and for every person, every single thing that has ever happened in your life is preparing you for the moment that is to come.
