Part One The language arts have always been an impactful part of my education. I always find myself enjoying these classes, but I know they’ve always felt easy. They’ve never been challenging enough. College is an intimidating factor I’ve yet to face. I feel as though I should learn what is necessary to further my education and push myself to the limits that I won’t reach if I’m to continue on with the current English classes. I understand that it will be significantly more difficult than English 11 and I acknowledge the work I will receive if I am to take College Prep.
Part Two When asked about an impactful person in my life, my mother always comes to mind. It’s not at all surprising to hear that the person who raised me helped determine my life, but sometimes it’s rather

My mom is a very perceptive woman. She’s always had a way of explaining the world and the people within it. It came as a great shock to myself when I learned she was extroverted, as I had always known her to exhibit introverted mannerisms. I had assumed she would be the watchful and quiet one, but she’s usually the life of the party. That’s when I started to ask her about her life. She’s experienced enough things to warrant a jaded perspective of the world, yet she still holds some appreciation. I owe her much more than just giving her a mutual respect and completing my chores. I attribute my perspective on the world to my mom. My personality was shaped from her open mind and helped me find my passions in life. I’ve always had a strong sense of who I am, what I want to do in life. I know that I’ll always be welcomed back to her regardless of any mistakes I may
I am originally from California I spent more than 15 years of my life there and I still have family living that lives there now. I have lived in a few states Montana, Texas, Utah and Washington of course.
In this activity we were given three separate tasks based on one theme. The first activity we were given was to form five questions that we could ask a specific person that we knew. The questions had to be based on a journey that a specific person has either been on or had been taken part in. Once we had formed these questions our second task we had to complete was to interview the specific person that you based your questions on. We had to ask the questions that we created to them and then we had to record their answers. Our third and final activity we had to complete was to turn the interview and answers that we were given into a story based on our subjects journey. We had to change the interview into a story which meant that we had to change the interview into past tense. We also had to put the interview together into sentences rather than questions and answers.
Right from the beginning of this course I had a terrible feeling that I was not going to learn what I had to or finish it with a good grade. It all began when I found out that I had to be in contact with an administrator in order to obtain the data needed to complete the final project. Dirksen (2014) wrote that one should never give up, even when everything seems against you. That is exactly what I did. I tried and fortunately, I was able to find help, gain a lot of knowledge from the material I had to read, good advices from my assistant principal, and learn how analyze school data in detail and put together a Data-Driven Decision Making Team together (3D). Also, and probably the most important, I learned to think more like a leader than a teacher.
Happy Sunday , I hope this week started out great for you. I really like the way you address week one's questions. When working in large buildings, where there is only two way up , stairs or elevator, you are completely correct, you must come down. William, I did not think about it the way you did, making everyone feelings a part by add to the planning and assign responsibility will make them more receptacle to the evacuation training. Rehearsal drills are the best it allows you to see if a plan is working effectively, if you can't do it any certain time , their is time to make adjustments for improvements. I think the United State government has put more force on crisis situations since the 9/11 attack. Another crisis like

I personally believe that Habermas is trying something quite idealistic: conciliate the principles of liberal democracy, such as the state neutrality regarding beliefs and deliberation using arguments accessible, understandable and acceptable by all the citizens, with religious principles, not only considering them legitimate but at the same time indispensable for a democratic coexistence. I do not disagree with a pre-disposition to listen to each other and be open to see the potential truth-content, translatable to values of public reason, such as solidarity or the respect to certain human rights. When Habermas indicates that if the State obliged the believers to argue “like if God did not exist” it would involve a huge renounce for them and inexistent
Ognjen Svilicic's films a powerful naturalistic drama about bus driver Ivo (Emir Hadžihafizbegović) who lives with his wife Maja (Jasna Žalica).

The next day, they find their son on the bathroom floor. Through all of this, Ivo showed no emotion, it was like he was just going through the motions of life.
A third person that has greatly affected my life is my mom. My mom was born in America, but she lived in Mexico until her 7th grade year. She is the middle child of three sisters and another three brothers. She is a teacher and has been for over 15 years. She has taught every elementary grade level at least once, and was my teacher for 5th grade. My mom is very determined, she doesn't let anyone make her do things she doesn’t want to do. My mom has taught me many things, one of which is that if you focus on your goals you can often reach
The number one person who has had a great impact on my life is my late grandmother Pinkie Mae Howard. She raised me from a little baby boy to the great young man I am today. She raised me the best she could. She always told me to give whatever I do my best and shoot for the top. Every morning she would wake me up for school and have me some breakfast ready. She would always tell me to behave and don’t get into trouble at school. I would leave for school as soon as I get there I would get in trouble and they would call her. When I would make it home from school she would tell me “now didn’t I tell you to behave “I would replied yes ma’am and promise to do better. She was truly a great woman, loved by many and many loved her. My grandmother lived
But for a long time through all the trials and tribulations I rejected her for so long. We argued left and right and had so many fights when I was younger. Being taken away from her was a big peel for me to swallow especially from my point of view. I thought I knew everything and I just rebelled every chance I got. Over the years, I’ve calmed down completely and learned to accept my mother for who she is and how she has been there for me; As a single mother. She may not have always had it, but one thing she did have was love and that’s all I was looking for. My mom is very generous, she cooks for me and all my siblings. I remember that used to be all she talked about is cooking for us as a family and seeing us eat together and laugh together. Me and my other siblings have been with my mom for about 6 or 7 years straight. After all this I have told in my autobiography this has made me stronger than ever. It has taught me how to be independent. Now I accept everything in my life and I can move on from it. As of right now I am 17 and I’ve had all my time to cry about it and tell God about it. Knowing that my mom is a single mother I want to give back to her and take care of her like she’s did for
While a father’s role plays a huge part, there is a great opportunity for a mother’s influence. And I didn’t realize this until…
Before my freshmen year in high school started, my dad and I moved in with my step-mom. In was a huge change and I didn’t know how to deal with it so I kept it bottled up and pretended everything is fine. Currently, I try to keep in touch with my mother as much as possible, but it’s hard. I always see the good in people before I judge them but I consider it has a blessing and a curse. Since I’m half my mom and have my dad, I deem myself to be an interesting person. I am hard headed, stubborn, understanding, and love learning new things. I could stay at a classic car show for 24 hours straight but I could also go shopping for 24 hours straight. I love meeting new people and learning about their backstory. Also, I can see the beauty in almost anything. You could sit me anywhere and I’d scan the room looking for the positives, whether they be the room itself or the people in the room. The transition from living with my mom to my step-mom was very rough on me. Even though my stepmom is very sweet and caring, I just couldn’t accept it. To this day, I can honestly say that I still haven’t accepted it. That is probably the only negative trait that I can openly say
My mother's and I relationship has always been close. But, ever since I got older I sort of drifted into not always depending on her as much or leaning towards her advice. I notice that I’m in high school , I’m getting older and I have to find my own path, my own way of living, and lastly learning things on my own. Whether if I stumble upon some bumps on the road, I have to learn to get back. But boy , was I glad she was the person who had most of my future in her hands. Therefore, it lifted a lot of weight of my back.
In my budding years of childhood my mother and I had a marvelous relationship. In addition to being my caregiver, she was also the most substantial influence I had. At a young age that’s how it commonly is, your parents are the first people you admire, the ones who promote growth and development into our inexperienced brains. As I got older, I became more observant and interacted with more people, gradually, an immeasurable culture barrier began to build up between my mother and I.
3. When I was around eleven years old, my older brother, who was only fifteen years old at the time had gotten his girlfriend pregnant.
