A year and a half ago I decided to end my relationship with not only my boyfriend at the time, but also my best friend, named Dakota. We both went to the same high school and went on numerous double dates but not with each other. However once we were single a mutual friend thought it would be a good idea to finally “hook” us up, but I was afraid nothing was going to work out considering I was still a senior in high school and he was a freshman in college. However I decided to take the chance and go on a date, and to my surprise it was one of the best dates of my life. Everything between us clicked, we had the same interest to similar personalities, and since that date we were irresistible. Dakota and I were known as the power couple, my friends where jealous of our relationship and I could not be happier. In my mind I really thought I found the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with, and we were both ready for that commitment, since I received a promise ring from him stating that were going to make it through college together, and then settle down. The first couple of months of college were difficult for both of us, but we made it through by seeing one another every other week. However it was not until spring semester of my freshman year when things started to change. I noticed Dakota becoming more over protective, especially after I found a good group of friends who wanted to go out every weekend and party. Due to this my feelings for him started to fade,
2014, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She came a week earlier than expected, but she was still perfect. The baby weighed six pounds, eight ounces and was twenty inches long. I heard her cry; it was like music to my ears. I felt as if I had just won first place in an Olympic race and my trophy was this cute little bundle of joy. Virtual Husband and I named her Dakota.

I decided it would be fun to name my virtual child after my favorite childhood toy, so we named her Dakota, after

Brookings, home to South Dakota State University, was named the 2015 safest college town in America by SafeWise. Along with SDSU’s safe and vibrant atmosphere, the university boasts several opportunities for academic, athletic, and personal enrichment.

When comparing South Dakota State University and the University of South Dakota, I found
I lived in Minnesota in a small town called Bemidji. It was a normal town with some local grocery stores, gas stations and a fairly nice mall that had a JCPenny’s and a Macy’s. Lake Bemidji was the center point of town and everything was built around it, with many trees and ferns growing throughout the whole town. I lived on the northern part of town where there were many forest’s. I remember waking up every morning to see my mom out on our deck with her crazy hair and wacky pajama’s on chasing away

One of the many things that have shaped me where when my grandparents came over to my house from India last summer. Also, my cousins were staying over at my house while my Aunt and Uncle were in India. During this time, my grandpa got low blood sugar and fell while he was on a walk with my sister. One major thing that I felt was guilt. This is because that day, I was riding my bike outside, my mom and older cousin

Family of Origin Paper
To start my family origin paper we have to go way back to 1976 when my parents met in Alamo, North Dakota; a town of about 200 people in the northwestern part of the state. They met while going through school playing sports, mainly basketball. Both were pretty good at the sport and won some awards and had chances to play more but decided to get married and start a family instead. Both grew up around the whole farming scene. My mom actually lived on a farm growing up
them. The stories of the Coss-McDaniel family range from the humor of my dad being born in a bathtub to the tragedy of my Grandma Coss becoming paralyzed when my mother was only twelve.
On April 10, 1975, my father, Donald James McDaniel was born in Lantry, South Dakota, in a bathtub. When Wanda Lee Parker-McDaniel went into labor, she locked the doors of the small bathroom and sat in the bathtub. In order to get to Wanda, my grandfather, William Dean McDaniel, had to take the hinges off of the old
When I was born it was around lunchtime on October 27, 1998 in the Plainville hospital. All went well other than the fact that I would not eat and had to stay in the hospital a little longer along with a few check ups afterwards. I never attended a formal preschool but, I went to daycare where my babysitter taught me the same as a preschool would. I have always lived in Stockton and have lived in three different houses. One of those houses was the rental house we had to stay in until we finished
