This car accident led me to have PTSD, which stands for post-traumatic stress disorder. It is a disorder that follows a traumatic event. It made me into who I am today because even though it happened nine years ago I still feel the effects as if it happened yesterday. For example, when my friend’s dad was also in a bad car accident and I went with them to see the car I had an anxiety attack because I had flashbacks. I went months with nightmares and whenever I saw something that reminded me of that day I would shut down. PTSD made something that people do so effortlessly into something absolutely terrifying for me which is driving. I still can’t drive in big cities like Sioux City

On the February 14th, I attended the student success at Hennepin Technical College. I got there around 0800 and met up with some of my fellow classmates there. Also, since we got there early, and there was nothing to do beside the small tables and activity. Therefore, we decided to do some activity and went to some small tables. I was lucky enough to win candy from one of the table, get a chance to get massaged on the back, massage on the foot, and played a bowling video game in Wii. I asked us to take a group picture together as a group for memories and we did (picture is attached on the second page) but then there was some students that was busy doing other activity. Therefore, we just took the picture without them.

As a teenage driver, I have received one speeding ticket and been in one accident. Getting into an accident in my front ditch has changed my view of driving and being more cautious on the road.

It was one life-changing experience I was seven years old when I became grateful for the things that I had. I remember packing for this big trip my parents were planning for a year now. I precisely recall my mother telling me to go through my closet and pick clothes I did not use to give away, I didn't know why, but I didn't ask, I just did it. As the day got closer I remember my parents had accumulated a great amount of things to give away. I quite didn't understand why they were gathering so many things and for what reason.

It’s all start when my sister and I went to Watson. While I’m doing window shopping, my sister went to buy some stuff. Accidently, in a glance, I saw my sister at the health section. In consciously, I went to her with full of questions, and asked her ‘are you sick?’ Then she turned back to me and answered my question with a question, ‘is this good?’

Old man Mr. Youssef changed my life forever when he introduced me to electronic engineering. His knowledge, confidence, enthusiasm, and character was unique enough for others to mirror. He knew how to dance salsa with the heavily populated Hispanic population of my high school. He smoked cigars and stank of cigarettes, but the young men and women in the classroom were blinded by the smell. Moreover, this 6 foot 5 inch giant made a difference in my life by molding me into a perspective student who now has a dream of becoming an engineer.

Driving is something we have to do on a daily basis. If you have a license you more than likely drive yourself and sometimes others around wherever you need or want. We do not think about being in a car accident every time we get in our vehicles to go somewhere. The first time I was in a car accident changed my life drastically. I was heading to work like every morning, and I had to swerve from hitting a van. I then rolled my two door cavalier six times down a hill and landed upside down in a ditch. The experience of this accident has caused me to have a significant amount of medical bills, a totaled car, a severe amount of emotional trauma, along with physical damage.

It seemed like a normal day, I'd just gotten off of school and ran to the school bus like normal. It was sunny, but in the air was a bone chilling breeze. As I waited in line to get on the bus, I searched for my bus partner frantically hoping I wouldn't have to sit next to a rowdy immature little 5th grader. Eventually the bus doors flew open and kids started shoving and pushing. I eventually got on and went towards the back as I was an 8th grader so I got dibs on the back of the bus. I sat down next to my friend, the bus went off on its route like everyday. But that day something happened that would change my life, “ring ring” my mother was calling me. I answered and asked her what she needed, my mother proceeded to tell me that there was a huge surprise waiting for me when I got home.

I’ve always heard, “you don't know what you have until it's gone”, I never really appreciated life until I realized how quickly it can be taken. One morning at my house in the summer of 2015, my brother that was 5 at the time had an incident that changed my view on life, and strengthened my beliefs. I am a fighter, and learned that I can get through anything, and do things I never would’ve thought I was capable of.
