My Birthday Nightmare
When I was little, I dreamed of becoming an elementary school teacher. I wanted to teach the second or third grade; making a difference in children’s lives. I was going to go to college and get my degree, then move back to my hometown after graduation to teach at my own elementary school that I attended when I was young. That was my plan all the way up to my junior year of high school, and everyone knew that. But, notice I said dream because now, I don’t want to be anywhere near a school. I can still remember that horrid day in March. Now, even thinking about the schools in my hometown or becoming a teacher, makes me sick to my stomach. I was a junior in high school in Worland, Wyoming. My year was going better than expected; good grades, the wrestling team was doing well, lots of friends, and a sweet boyfriend. Life couldn’t get any better, I was happy and looking forward to my seventeenth birthday that was going to happen in just a few days. My parents had planned a huge birthday party and invited all my friends and family. There was going to be a barbeque with cake and ice cream, and because I was so close to starting my senior year, my parents said they had a surprise for me. You could say my excitement level was very high over the course of a couple of days. I manage the boys wrestling team at our high school, and one day before my birthday, we traveled to the nearby town for a duel. We arrived at the school, unloaded the bus, and went
As I was getting ready for school, I told myself, "I 'm so excited to finally go to school! I can 't wait to get there! I bet it 's going to be the best thing ever!" Once I finally arrive to school, I realize what it is actually like. My teacher, Miss Fisher, doesn 't seem to like that I already know how to read.
All my life I had dreamed of following in my mother 's footsteps and becoming a UConn Huskie. I had watched every UConn sporting event with my parents for as long as I can remember. I 've acquired many autographs of players over the years and even obtained a basketball signed by Jim Calhoun. I remember the devastation I felt when I learned the major I was pursuing was not offered at UConn. I had graduated high school convinced I was going to be an accomplished architect.
I didn’t want to leave my friends or teachers. I loved my school. I have moved a lot in my life, so I didn’t want to move again. One day my mom said we might be moving in a couple months to Oklahoma.
According to the Mayo Clinic “ an adequate intake of water (AI) for men is roughly about 13 cups (3 liters) of total beverages a day. The (AI) for women is about 9 cups (2.2 liters) of total beverages a day”. I drank none. July Fourth of 2006 was the day I realized I did not like orange soda. It was the summer of 2006 and, because my parents divorced when I was 5 years old, I was visiting my dad for his allotted two months in the summer.
Elementary school was a place where I thought I could be me without any problems. Younger me was a bright, colorful and cheerful child. I enjoyed drawing, wearing vibrant colors, and making outfits for myself. But I also enjoyed singing so I joined the choir. That was my dream, to become a singer.
For years I have dreamt about getting into my favorite college. The rush I would get as my school’s football team ran out of the tunnel. All the new people I would meet that would become my friends for life. It is now November of my senior year and I have decided to go to Colorado State University.

“Help! Help!” Have you ever had a day where everything was going right and then there was that one thing that happened to you to ruin your entire day? Well, that was the worst day of my life.
I remember thinking how great it was going to be because I didn’t have to go to private school and wear a uniform. I could wear colorful clothes and not have to go to school. My parents and I could go out all the time, eat ice cream, and shop in the big malls. It was a dream until September came around and I learned I still had to go to school, and suddenly this new place wasn’t a paradise anymore.
All i wanted was to throw my alarm clock across the room and sleep for the rest of the day. I could smell my mom making breakfast, it was pancakes my favorite. I finally got up after smelling that. While I was getting ready, was kinda excited to be in the sixth grade. I was finally in middle school.
Shortly after my sixteenth birthday, something terrible happened to me. But, first let's start at the beginning. When I was five years old my parents got me the best gift a little girl could ever ask for, a puppy. My dad came into the house with what I thought was a black jacket in his arms. I was wrong, after he came into the kitchen the “jacket” popped it’s little head up, it wasn’t a jacket, it was a puppy.
It was a diverse and strict school with many rules I had follow so I knew I had to make a big adjustment. It was challenging for me to come from a school with nothing but freedom and those I’m used to being around on a daily basis to an environment where they teach and students there learn and actually had an interest to want to. I tried to adjust their but I just couldn’t and found myself not attending school once again.
I had asked all my relatives for my birthday to give me money so I could save up to get a horse. I had already been saving up by collecting cans and bringing them in to get money. The day of my birthday, I
Hopefully I have achieve everything that I have strive for. I hope that I graduated college. That my life is on the right track without any worries. I see myself working hard as a pediatrician and a traveling nurse. I hope to have a bachelor degree, master degree, and my doctorate degree.
A memorable day I my life is when I first found out I was a diabetic. I was scared and didn’t really understand what was happening. I was too sick, and for the most part out of my mind. But, what I do remember is a lot of pain and a few visitors. It wasn’t the best day and I don’t remember every detail.
