392 Words2 Pages

My first thought of what I would do, as a career would be something far away from a high school. This was all true till my junior year of high school. I found my passion to teach.

The start of that weekend I never knew how it was going to change me. I had about nine FFA members in my group, all of them from different chapters. There was one thing they all did have in common and it was they were really shy. The next day we were having contest against the other group with some FFA career development contests. I was working with half my group on the agriculture communication contest. They really

    I had ideas, but I didn’t have anything I was extremely passionate about yet. My junior year, while I was going through a rough patch in my life, I started to work at a daycare to get my mind off things and make a couple extra dollars. After only a couple shifts at the daycare, my passion was incredibly clear… teaching children. I was able to help children who needed me and it made me feel an incredible sense of worth at a time when I felt worthless. The way their problems were so small, the way they smile endlessly, and the way they were so innocent and untouched by the troubles of the world made me want to always be around them.

    For my Diverse Field Experience this semester, I spent fifteen hours at the Mclean County Juvenile Detention Center. This particular center was occupied by about 8-14 juveniles at a time, all depending on court dates and occupancy of other nearby detention centers. This center usually had 3 staff members working the shift every time I went, which was seven to nine on weekday afternoons. I was intrigued to go to at this time because I thought it would be the time of the day were the juveniles had no school work or other obligations to do while I was there. I wanted to see what they liked to do in the free time before bed, the only stipulation being mandatory snack time at eight pm.

  • Personal Narrative: A Career As A Farmer's College

    496 Words  | 2 Pages

    When you think of the University of Florida, things such as football, orange and blue, and the Rowdy Reptiles are things that might come to mind. Agriculture probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, but did you know that without agriculture, and a need to create a “farmer’s college” in the 19th century, that UF wouldn’t exist? As a product of the first “land grant” act in the age of Abraham Lincoln, UF’s roots were built on farming and home economics with the beginnings of the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. Today, UF is so much more than a farmer’s college, earning the moniker of “the Greatest University in the South,” and I am proud to be a part of it today. Since I was involved in agriculture as a kid through 4-H, FFA, and showing animals at the county fair, I always knew one day that I would be a Gator at the Florida’s premier college of agriculture.
