There is one childhood memory that I can easily remember, even though it was ten years ago, I can remember it as if it were yesterday. Reminiscing back to the sad day racing my brother home from the bus stop where I had the accident of my life. Him being nearly a year older he beat me home but shut the door in my face as soon as I reach home where I was running full speed right into the door head first. That day change my life in all the wrong ways because I chip one of my tooth and lost a one as well. I was mad at my brother for weeks even though I know he didn't mean to hurt me or wanted to damage my teeth because I understand that accident do happen. I forgave him for that incident but indue time I realize the way my teeth was growing which wasn’t normal.
Meanwhile, as time past my teeth situation had gotten out of control where I desperately told my mother that I wanted to go to the dentist. She immediately told me she would book me an appointment. As time past I went for a check up where I heard the great news I would need to get braces in the future. Growing up my mom was single parent with four kids so paying for braces wasn't her first priorities. Therefore we

I would ask my mom at least three times a day if we got approve or is the progress speeding up. I was so impatient because I was still dealing with being called names and not being comfortable about my smile. Then the day came where my life change when my 6th grade teacher came up to me while me and the rest of my classmates outside running around saying I had an earlier dismissal. Getting braces was all I thinking about while packing my bag and on the way to get in my mothers car. As I got in I saw her smiling and ready to tell me the truth that I finally was going to the orthodontist to get my braces. I was extremely happy that the day had finally came and was more than ready to take on the pain from the
She was urgently needed the dentures as she lost almost all of her teeth due to periodontal disease. I had trouble communicating with her as she seemed so wary and upset when she first came into the clinic. However, after her several office visits, she recognized me as her granddaughter and often brought me candies. I couldn't be any happier when I finally saw her with a white and a well-arranged teeth and with a big, satisfied grin on her face. I can say that dental services can be challenging, but I can also say that it is a rewarding career which will bring me a great achievement.
Although Virginia and New England colonists shared many differences, many came from a common background. Almost all colonists could trace their heritage to European starts, mainly England. Many colonists came to the New World to start over, whether for religious or economic reasons.
Looking back at my childhood, I suppose you could say it was pretty difficult. Even at my happiest, I was living with a foster family, separated from the rest of my biological relatives. However, I couldn’t complain. I loved them like they were my family that I spent my whole life with. I was a five-year-old boy living a happy life. I had grown attached to the family, feeling like I was truly a part of it. Then one cold November day it all changed. A woman dressed in black came to my home I had grown to love and told me it was time to go away. I horrified, not knowing where I could be taken. After waiting in a room full of toys for a few hours, she came back in and told me it was time to go. She put me in the back seat of a car and started driving. Driving to my mother’s house, to live with her and my two brothers. They didn’t even feel like family anymore. Time marched on, however. My sister was born, I was reintroduced to my family, and although I missed the Bernards, everything felt like it was going to be ok.
On a bitter cold December day when I was in the 7th grade, my mom took me to the orthodontist office in Sioux Falls. When he announced the news that I needed braces, I was not real thrilled. I tried to think about the fact that I would eventually have perfect, straight teeth but I wasn’t ready to give up caramel apples. Although I liked straight teeth, I did not like braces, but my orthodontist said I must have them. At the appointment, my orthodontist performed an x-ray to fit my braces. That’s when my life took a turn.

The good old days, the days of being an innocent child without limits with care free attitude. My childhood, for the most part, consisted of intrepid adventures and endless hours of fun spent exploring and making huts in behind the family house. These were the times that I shall never forget for they will be forever ingrained in me for eternity. As a child, the world felt small and insignificant, all I knew was that I was living it up like another child on the block, free to do whatever we wanted, free from the pressures of society. These were the innocent days. The fondest memories of my childhood were the times spent exploring the back paddock behind my old house. It was like stepping into another realm, a place that was our own little hidden gem, like a secret garden that we could escape to at anytime.
From the day I was born to the 7th of July 2012 I lived in Kidlington, UK. In this small and secluded town, I hold some of my best memories.
On June 8th, 1990 is when I entered this place that we call Earth. Born to Montasser and Nagla Hassan, the only girl and the youngest with two older brothers, nine and seven years apart. My parents were born and raised in Cairo, Egypt, and moved to America after getting married, leaving their families behind to better their future and the lives of their future off springs. Their courage and dedication to life and each other is a characteristic that they carried on throughout their journey of careers, life, love, and children.
My childhood was a very dark place for me, I didn’t have as many friends and people were bullying me and I started to become a bully myself including hurting my family members. There was also a lot of family issues in my life, Also with my school life with the grades that I was making.When I would come home from school, my parents would always argue and have always fight. My mom would always make me read a book to her before she and I went to sleep and before I finish my last sentence,an argument occurs and then I would cry and feel depressed and a lot of adults were making fun of body and making rude comments. For example: I would open my fridge and my grandparents friend would come over and see me pull out a jar of ice cream and say to my grandparents “she looks like she pregnant, why would you allow her to eat ice cream. She will get bigger.” I didn’t have as many friends or talents. I tried everything I can to help others, but they just use me and call me mean things.
D.H Lawrence 's ideas of love and interpersonal attraction are nothing if not polarizing. His distillation of love to an animalistic desire can be seen as either the height or death of romanticism. One may argue that such uncontrollable hormonal puppeteering undermines the human element of restraint or a more noble idea of love as unique companionship. In a sense, Lawrence challenges the notion of separation between and the beasts; he suggests the protestant-fueled traditions of courtship are not a sign of human elevation, but a convolution of instinct that is as primal as the lust of thirst. However, Lawrence may also represent the life of romanticism, shaping such animal drive into the current of a more galvanistic construct of romance.
Paint this, it’s the late 90’s in Highland Park, L.A. County. An oriental looking boy is sitting on a wobbly wooden stool about 3 feet away watching PBS Kids in a black and white picture on 10” screen. I can still recall the flickering picture and the pixel barred pallet, also in black and white. I’m not stating I grew up misfortuned but this is one of my earliest memories, in-fact my grandmother did have a colored picture t.v. It’s the setting as the focal point, especially if some are familiar with the area. In my flashback, accuracy was not intended. Myself being an oriental boy was not the factually detailed truth.
After a trip to the dentist, I declared my future career. I told my mom not going to have to worry about my siblings and me having cavities because she had a little dentist in the house. I “operated” on my brother and sister’s teeth as if I were a dentist.
The day was here...finally here! I have been waiting so long for this day to happen, my very very first soccer game. I was so excited to play in this game that is all I had been thinking about for the past week. I had been dreaming and dreaming about starting soccer. My parents, my sister, my whole family was so happy for me! It was my very first time going shopping for some cleats, shin guards, socks, and some shorts. My happiness was unexplainable!
