How Do Photo Booths Affect Me

Freshman year, I received an award for having the highest overall average in Biology. Receiving the medal led me to believe I could become a marine biologist. However, my father never seemed too interested in my education, or the award. My father never once asked to see a report card. I made excellent grades without the

With my father is still strong as I used to be. The only difference now is the fact that the roles are almost flipped. I am not teaching my father to be a good person, but I am protecting him for other things in life. Not literally protecting him, but looking out for his well being and his safety. He comes to me when he needs

My father, William, is a family man who deals with his family before any other individual. William worked 31 years of his life at GM. He went to work at GM to help me head off to college. When it came to helping me with math I could simply request that my father help me. Whenever an item broke, my father would endeavor to restore it. He could rewire most hardware that broke around the house. Reta, my mother, would help me with just about everything. For every one of my years of going to class my mother drove me to school so I would not be late. Regardless of the possibility that Reta needed to drive such a distance out to the Career Center, Reta would blissfully drive out there. In the event that I ever require help with the spelling on my work, Reta was dependably there to help me. The main issue is that Reta knows nothing on the how to run a cell phone. I am asked all sorts of questions ranging from how to utilize a cell phone to asking that I write most of her posts on

In the summer of 2010, I had to make a decision that could change my life. My mother and my father had been fussing non-stop. My father had gotten a new job offer in Hawaii, but my mother did not want to move. She said that all of their family lived in Wisconsin and that her job needed her. Father, however, said that it would be a great opportunity for me and that my mother could easily get a better job in Hawaii. They continued their fussing for a week, and they had decided that the best thing would be for them to go their seperate ways. My mother would stay in Wisconsin and my father would move to Hawaii.

Up until now, I had lived a relatively unassuming life in the middle of nowhere Virginia. My dad was is in the military and got to travel all over the world to different bases to teach the United States Military Troops how to best serve our country. I always wished that he would take mom and I with him, but he never did. I don't think it is very fair that we had to stay in boring Virginia while he goes to places like Paris, Tokyo, and Moscow. In fact, he basically doesn't even live with us. I barely get to see him once a year; even for big

So I had applied for a job and started working, I would work 8-10 shifts just to get enough money to help him pay the bills and the insurance for the car. The weeks went by and I didn’t realize how ,much class time I was missing, I was just so focused on helping out my parents, I couldn’t stand seeing my father stressed so much and my mom so sick. Finally, everything started to get better, my mom was finally out of the hospital, my dad was not stressing so bad, I put in my two weeks at

I chose my dad as my salesperson because he provides and does so much for my family that I thought it was more than necessary for me to understand all he does and the things he goes through in order to be successful. My dad and I met a little over a month ago at our house because he works from home. My dad and I began the day by discussing what he felt was important when selling his product to other companies as well as difficulties he faces. On that particular day he had a sales call with a company in Amelia, Florida. I felt a little lost when I was listening to the sales call because there were completely over my head, but I took the best notes I could. Once my dads call was over he discussed with me what had happened in the call and I had a better understanding about what went on. After we had finished discussing the call, I headed back to Stillwater. My dad then went to Florida to meet with the company, Amelia Island Equity Club. When he arrived back in Tulsa, we made a point to meet again to discuss what had gone down the meeting with the company. Shortly after, my dad went to Florida again to meet with Amelia Island and once again returned to discuss with me what happened. At this point he had closed the deal. I took more than one trip to meet with my father because I felt that it was important that I experienced the

Dad was a very stable man, holding the same job at an office furniture retailer for 25 years. In 1985 he decided to take a chance and open his own furniture business, a retail store that competed for sales with the very store where he spent most of his life working. It did not take long to make the new venture a success. Most of my father’s customers from his

Memory has been and always will be associated with images. As early as 1896, leading psychologists were arguing that memory was nothing more than a continuous exchange of images. (Bergson) Later models of memory describe it as more of an image text; a combination of space and time, and image and word. (Yates) Although image certainly is not the only component of memory, it is undoubtedly an integral and essential part of memory's composition.

My family was still reeling from a recent divorce, my dad did not seem to want to visit my sister or me, and we had to move; the moving part did not bother me, since I was raised in a military family, but this time we moved and my dad did not

My opinions of my father change along with his mood. My opinions on his past actions are permanent and personal. When my father was in his twenties he became very sick and was diagnosed with a manic-depressive illness commonly known as bipolar disorder. This serious illness is especially exhausting in a family with young children. (Bipolar). This is a genetic disorder that he couldn’t help but acquire. He having these massive changes in mood take a huge toll on my mother. Often he will have

Dinner was as normal as could ever be. We ate food, talked a bit about school and work. It was after dinner when the ball of stress rolled back. My dad took me upstairs to my room for “a little talk”. I had no idea what the conversation was going to be about. My dad started off by telling me how great of a year it was for me at school and was praising me for getting Distinction. I was still confused at what point he was try to come across. That confusion though, only lasted for a mere second. My dad straightforwardly told me why he wanted to talk. My 4 year old brother would normally be babysat by my grandma when I have my summer vacation. This year though, my grandma was at my aunt’s house taking care of a 10 month old baby boy. At that moment I resentfully realized that I would have to babysit my brother every single weekday until

The story of my father he was not in my life much until i got older around 6 or 7 year old. Most of the time i really wasn’t worried about my father being in my life, but sometimes

I was the average Junior High student attending school with no worries. The summer before I started high school, my life changed forever. Of course it was for the better. I was blessed with sharing a life with my nephew. He showed me a way of life I never knew existed. My nephew, John, was two years old and he always spent a lot of time with us. He was at our house on a daily basis. Of course, he spent every weekend with us, too. His Dad, which is my brother, was in prison. His teenaged Mom, Alyse, was struggling as a single parent. She felt like she couldn’t give John the life he deserved. Alyse decided she could no longer raise a child by herself. She wanted the best for her child and believed letting him go would be the best option for him. Alyse called my Mom and asked if John could come to live with our family. My Mom did not hesitate when she answered in excitement; “When would you like for me to pick him up?” I knew that John moving in with my family meant that my life would be changing forever. Due to financial reasons; my Mom, who was also a single parent, would have to work nights and double shifts to make ends meet for our family. Because of this, I would be responsible for caring for John after school. My Mom tried very hard to allow me to participate in school activities as a normal High School student would. I was allowed to be involved in as many activities as logically possible. The reality was we all had to make sacrifices. I don’t think I realized at the
