My Writing Experience I have never been good writing, I was never really exposed to it until my tenth grade year in high school. It was my first year at Clinton High school, August 17, 2013, I had the hardest english teacher in my grade. I already had imagined how that year was going to go. Looking back at it now it was not as bad I thought it would be I learned a lot from that class.
Returning to school is one of the most life changing things I have ever done for myself. After high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. Therefore, for a year and a half I stumbled through life trying to figure out what to do. How was I supposed to get a job if I did not have any experience? Luckily, I managed to land a job as a camp counselor, but something was still missing.
My Contribution to the FNLM Program I’ve always grown up in an environment where drugs and alcohol were always a huge no, but I never thought that I’d be teaching my family values to other kids. I’m aware of some people’s situations due to their unfortunate uses of drugs and I’m grateful that I got to give insight to others and hopefully change their lives for the better. In the beginning I was scared to teach the proteges because I thought that I was not going to be a good teacher. Later in the mentoring program I realized talking in front of a crowd is not all that bad.
What happens to their friendships is one thing that might help students before they get here? For example, I learned about quality over quantity, having friends that care and are there for me is more meaning full than having a lot of friends that may or
Coming from a poor family, being shy, and moving around a lot, Sandra learned she needed to overcome these problems by accomplishing her goals. When she finally settled down and ran away from home to go to college, she had more confidence in herself, and was heading towards her objectives. For example, “I’ve done all kinds of things I didn’t think I could do since then.” Eventually she learned life is what everyone makes of it.
-robert greene I picked this quote because teachers are not going to going to hold you hand throughout high school. Their just their just their to teach the students who want to make it in life and some do not care if you pass or not. My grades have changed since I first started high school they were really good at first but then I got side tracked thinking I would pull up my grades last minute.
Eyes Like a Shutter, Mind Like a Lens I never thought that a credit card sized image would mean so much to me. As a going away present, I received a brand new polaroid camera from my parents. At the moment, I was excited; but subconsciously terrified of moving away to school. It's not that I was afraid to live on my own, but rather the fact of having to make new friends and having them like me for who I truly was.
Suddenly, the connection I felt with them all the years prior began to fade and it felt like I was talking to strangers whenever we communicated. At the time, this had such a huge impact on my life. I was in my peak year of middle school, I was starting to figure out who I was, and these were people I had grown up with and whose company I felt familiar with. I had decided to branch out and do something that I had not felt comfortable enough in my own skin to do. Receiving judgement for my own personal leap of faith, taught me that happiness within yourself is the most important happiness you can have.
Because they came from humble beginnings, my parents taught me and brother to respect but not worship money, to be generous to those who are not as fortunate, and to work hard and earnestly for the things that we want. My high school education has positively affected my career and life choices. During these four years, I have had, in my opinion, some of the best teachers in the entire Lamar Consolidated district. My teachers have pushed me to achieve my dreams with high expectations and interesting and useful lessons and without their presence in my life, I would not have achieved all that I have now. My grandmother’s stroke was the catalyst and along with these four years and especially my science and math courses have lead me into a career in medicine and
Besides viewing this process as a foundation for future knowledge and abilities, I have been anticipating this stage of gaining deeper and professional knowledge in psychology for a long time. To summarize, this goal is elicited from my passion and enthusiasm for psychology, to remain focused throughout these three years, instead of gaining fame or impress others. After graduation, I want to engage in a job related to psychology, allowing me to serve others by applying the knowledge learnt. It may not need to be anything very great; I just hope to contribute to the society’s wellbeing, whether it is in the clinical setting, corporate world or any other aspects. Most importantly, I hope to raise awareness and acceptance towards mental disorders.
Xander had a great start to his time at HHS, but over the last few weeks he has done very little in class, been very disruptive, and has to be reminded most days on what the expectations are at the beginning of class (seated with something to write with and something to write on). He has not completed the writing reflection that went with his presentation on The Crusades. The window for turning in the late work just closed. He was
My parents’ example of hard work pushes me to have these goals, and as a child I have the passion to one up my parents, to be better so that my kids can
I would like to be apart of ASB because I’m interested in helping Medea be the best school it can be. I always like to learn new things and I will appreciate new experiences learning from seventh and eighth graders. I am responsible and I am excited for my leadership skills to be tested. Also, I will gain more responsibility and learn more leadership skills throughout my time in ASB. As part of ASB, I will be able to work with other students who have similar interests and want to be fellow leaders at Medea.
Being the first one in my family to graduate was a big pressure for me as well as a motivation. I had the pressure to make my family proud and to set a good example for my children to follow. Thinking about it, the pressure was not only that, but it was also learning to juggle my full time job, with family and school. That was definitely the challenging pressure I was putting on myself. Their support slowly turned into pressure because they were all going out of there ways to help me achieve my goals, so the pressure of graduating and achieving my goals was 100% more.
At the same time my children were looking at colleges and contemplating their future careers. When they asked me what they should study I remember telling them to find a career you enjoy, something that makes you excited about going to work, be happy, and most of all try to make a difference. This started my investigation of other careers because I realized it was time to follow my own advice. The concept of being a FNP was first suggested in passing at one of my youngest son’s doctor appointments.
