Personal Narrative: My First Generation Of Asian Americans

The week before the homecoming game, we found out that our starting senior libero got sick with Mononucleosis, which meant that she couldn’t participate in any physical activity. We quickly had to find our next best passer, for that next week’s big game, and I was next in line. You will never know when you will have to step up, and when chances like this will arise . You always have be prepared, otherwise you might miss your chance. When I found out that I had to libero for one of the biggest games of the season, I was dripping with drops of nerves.

I learned this when I had thought that I got over my concussion until my grades started to plunge due to the fact that I was missing school because of migraines that had me crying myself to sleep and that were so bad that I wasn’t able to function normally. Soon, I learned different approaches to deal with these migraines that would help me deal with my post-concussion effects for the rest of my life. It was the fall season of basketball; when my team had been playing against an inner city school. The team was very aggressive, especially the girl I had been guarding. The other team was losing; it was towards half time when I was running

I have to fill two more tags by the end of second season of deer hunting. If I don’t fill the tags that would be a waste of money. We had to spend over $75 on those tags. I honestly think that the stress on me and the stress on Howard.Your book just lit me up. Ya it is kind of hard for me and my family because my dad has infection and his ankle broke a year ago, his shoulder was broke at about 2 years ago and it still not fully healed.

That means your knees are not going to be better but your kidney is going to fail. People with advanced arthritis definitely require surgery and cannot be cured by medicines. Several rheumatoid patients require knee replacement at a relatively younger age. Replacement Surgery in severely damaged knee may reduce the longevity of the replaced joint because of technical

That day I had knee surgery, and the pain and doubt brought on by the surgery; completely and utterly devastating. While I would inevitably have to have surgery, I just wished with all my might to hold off on receiving it. I wanted to twirl my senior year, the surgery rendered my goal, my hopes and dreams. Consumed by doubt and a crushing lack of motivation after receiving my surgery, I almost entered into a state of depression. Being different has never been my goal in life, and blending in with a pair of crutches by your sides creates a very difficult challenge .

Athletes Get Overpaid Imagine you're a surgeon that works day and night to get the money that you’ve earned then you go home and you start watching T.V. and you figure out that athletes that play games that little kids play for fun are getting paid twice and even 3 times more than you get in a lifetime. Therefore, athletes are getting overpaid and they get paid way more than others. Many athletes all over the world start to struggle financially because of all this money and responsibility. To begin with, they get overwhelmed with this money and most of these athletes are young and don’t even know how to open a bank account and manage all this money.

Athletes take the risk of getting injured not just for a couple of months but for the rest of their lives’, some athlete will not be able to afford the medication that they need in the future to cope with their injuries. Athletes are also held at a higher standard in the publics eye, they are being watch every second of every day whether it be by the general public or by the media. So Athletes sacrifice their own personal life to keep the public happy and keep kids encouraged to do the right

For the last year or so, I have felt trapped. Doing something that you do not want to do day in and day out is everyone’s worst nightmare. I use to think that pursuing soccer, as a profession was my calling on this earth. To think that something I dreamed of doing for years is now something that makes me unhappy, has made me realize what is truly important to me in life. I want to be able to identify as something other than my athletic successes.

When that didn't happen I shortly gave up because I thought I just wasn't good enough to be that big. As I learned more about my goal though I realized he didn't accomplish it in a day either. It took him years of going to the gym twice a day to look like that. I knew now that if I wanted to look like that I would have to put the work in. Thats when I started seeing results and overtime I got distracted from my goal I just thought of how I wanted to look, the end result is the ultimate motivation while on the path to get there.

I have had a very difficult time adjusting to college because I knew how to take advice about asking for help and not actually asking for help when I needed it. During my freshman year, this was a great problem and this resulted in me ending the year with a low GPA and losing my scholarship. The wake-up call came when my strong mother broke down after I told her I had lost my scholarship and that she had to pay out of pocket for me to attend an expensive institution. Although I could have dropped out and attended the community college near my home, my mother reminded me that this was my one and only shot at a college education. For the next two semesters, I worked hard and brought my GPA above a 3.0 which helped me regain my scholarship.
