Later on the 11th, Paul 's grandparents call to tell the family that the sinkhole at the school is on the national news. Paul is disappointed to learn that the sinkhole is smaller than he thought it was. Dad comes home angry and agitated because his office has been getting calls asking why the Department of Civil Engineering had approved putting the school over the sinkhole. Dad 's boss couldn’t be reached so he had to answer the questions. Paul was shocked because he had to go to school on Thursday.
My brothers got super bored that they went to the Goliath but not by themselves they forced me to go. Next, my idea was to go to the restroom but it was no use we were stuck in the line for about a whole hour. I felt really scared because I remembered that I used to watch videos about horrible accidents that happened on rollercoasters. At this point I could not do anything so I just decided to ride it and to just get over with it.
I was in dilemma wishing I never walked the face of the earth and I thought I would be doing everyone a favor just by taking my own life. I was going through a rough patch, every mistake and wrong thing that I had done in the past rose back to life; eating whatever shred of self worth that had left. I started performing badly at school, my two-year long sweet relationship with my girlfriend was brought to an end, I felt as if God had turned his back on me I could not handle the pain, my life was now a complete failure, it was a huge scar that I had to bear for
I had a BMI of 37 going into my freshman year of college and my physician warned me numerous times to change my lifestyle. I dismissed their warnings with youthful ignorance. However, there I was laboring away on that treadmill, with only one response to those thoughts begging me to quit, “This pain is nothing compared to how you felt that day.” My dad was never out of shape, but he also wasn’t as healthy as his physician asked him to be.
The evident pain of an appalling time where my mother was at her weakest, not knowing how she would support her four children after being laid off during the Great Recession of 2008, was suffocating. Having no father figure to look up to in my life, other than an illustration of a man leaving his family behind, was excruciating, especially at the boisterous stage of my innocence. In elementary school, I was suspended, received unacceptable grades, and was bullied. Growing up, I found myself isolated and disadvantaged in my institutional environments. I find that it was grossly unfair that the complexity of adulthood was initiated at the time of my childhood.
Moving, Starting a New Life. I was ten years old in fifth grade and my parents’ said “we 're moving to Idaho son”. I was depressed I knew I would lose my friends and my school. This was on my parents minds for a while, but I never thought they were serious.
I was already having problems that same day. , It was a Thursday morning when these three kids walked up and said to me when they told me that it made my blood boil (it does not help when I was already in a really bad mood),From there on I was mad at people because i thought they looked at me differently, that no one cared about me that I was on my own. I was really mad at people I didn’t talk to anybody for about 2 weeks because I was hurting and shut everyone out. When people would ask what had happened to me why was I changing, it didn’t help that I was having problems and that I don’t have anyone that I would trust to talk about
Failure to Express From as far back as I can remember, shyness made me scared to speak up for myself. In fifth grade, I distinctly remember being unable or unwilling to speak with my teacher. I had had a skiing accident where I had broken my jaw in the mishap. The accident caused me to have to stay home from school for about six weeks. My teacher sent home work for me, so I diligently finished everything, in hopes of making my teacher proud.
That’s when I noticed all I have here is my mom, sister and father. From that moment I just hated living here but I knew all my parents wanted was a better future for me. The day to start school came and I was scared but I also wanted to know how school was going to be here. The first days in school were very hard, never really understood a word the teachers were saying and it was hard for me to make
Have fun. All too many times, people forget the reason on waiting to play the game muddled especially when they know that they have a chance you become a pro. Try to stick to the reason why you want to be playing the game in the first place. Winning competitions is second the first thing you need to be worried about is whether you still have passion for the game and you enjoy it and have fun playing
I want students to push themselves harder than they though possible, which has been modeled by my professors pushing me to do the same. Teachers are role models to show students that it is okay to not be perfect, but it is about trying to improve and persevere. George Fox has teachers that modeled and let me practice my own pedagogy, which will allow me to be a confident and effective educator. By finishing my education at George Fox I can show my students what it is like to set goals and finish them. I am a proud first generation college student
Thomas, Elizabeth starts the last part of the Being Wrong segment. She starts by saying, “I recently read one of those life hack articles online and it included the Step of Adding water to Mac and cheese as a life hack. One of the most well known facts of the college realm, to add water to mac and cheese is certainly not a “life hack” an actual necessity.” There she goes again with macaroni and cheese talk. I still cannot believe half of a segment talked about the wrongdoings of mac and cheese.
After my aunt had her baby whose name is Brian she said, “I wanted to name him Andy but you already took it”. I just stood there for a moment and thought why did my parents name me Andy
In this unit I learned about the procedures that follow the aftermath of an event in which the President is incapable to perform his or her responsibilities and duties as President of the United States of America. Before I started this portfolio I did not know the specific procedures that the President and Congress must follow when determining if the President can serve his country. I also learned who will fill in the spot of the successor if both the President and Vice President were unable to fulfill their duties. I now understand the purpose and procedures of the Presidential Succession Act and the 25th amendment.
