Mathematics. All of these require students to learn, memorise, understand and to be tested. Besides grades and examinations, the school also encompasses a wider curriculum including character moulding, citizenship building and personality development. Indeed, I think the school does prepare us for life. Firstly, the school teaches us self-discipline. We learn to keep to a schedule and to adhere to the timetable. We also learn to appreciate time and to be punctual. Moreover, we are trained to plan and manage
I had always known I was different. No one ever liked me, so I never liked them. That all changed when I met Earth Chikyū. The one who stood up for me when I was made fun of. The one who comforted me when I was sad. The one who left me alone on the street. When I met her, I learned how to open up to people and I didn 't feel as lonely because I knew I had someone who cared for me. That all changed when Moon Tsuki moved in next door to her. I had suspected for a while that Earth had been cheating
My Mother and Literacy The first teacher I ever had was my mother (Stephanie). From tying my shoes to my ABC’s she taught me so many things throughout my life. Enhancing how literacy fit into my life was one major thing my mom did for me. Similar to the reading Superman and Me by Alexie; we always had books lying around the house. We would take trips to the library to look for new books and we would attend the summer reading program. My mom would have me read anything and everything; menus, recipes
choice to be in band, I was very anxious to start. We had to meet with Mrs. Jones to try a few different instruments before making a decision. I considered percussion and the clarinet (only because my sister had played it), but I really wanted to try out the trombone. In the end, Mrs. Jones decided the clarinet would be the best for me, mostly because I could use my sisters and not have to buy a new instrument.

I had always considered myself a writer. I had always found comfort in identifying with the title of writer. I had the cliché I was born a writer stories to back up this self-given idealistic position. I was drawing full-length picture books at the age of three, before I even knew how to string together a coherent sentence in the written word. By five, I had no trouble whipping out a thrilling (maybe for a kindergartener) story that I begged my grandma to type up for me, considering I was not yet
many aspects of my life and work I need to apply in order to be successful when it comes to achieving the goal of graduating with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering. One of the methods I can use to help me to be successful is goal setting. I believe this will give my life a direction and allow me to focus on what is important, as mentioned in Chapter one of ‘Studying Engineering by Raymond B. Landis’ and in my 2nd 4MAT. Some of the goals I have set myself are: Short-term goals: • Successfully
I had prepared myself for forty weeks but this impatient lady right here is forty weeks, six days, eight hours pregnant. I am practically going on my tenth month of pregnancy. I thought I knew everything there was to know about pregnancy until last night when everything started to become a reality. I have no clue what to expect. Today is the day! Never in my life have I felt so many emotions happen all at once. Pacing the hallways I have already peed four times in the last hour and still have
As I ran out on to the field, I could feel the sweat beads running down my forehead. The pounding of my heart echoed in my ears like beats from a drum. Smelling the sweat that dripped off people 's bodies, I could tell everyone warmed up hard for this game. Everyone knew this game was a great deal, since it was the game that would take us to the championships. It was a scary event for my whole team. I had planned to play as ferociously as possible. Being the best player on my team I knew that
Things between Marcus and I has been perfect the last seven months. Marcus took care of the police as a gift of me quitting hustling. I have to admit me stepping down has been the best decision I ever made. In a sense, me and Marcus has gotten closer since all this happened. In addition to our happiness, business for both of us is better than it’s ever been. After stepping down from the drug game, Marcus expanded by adding my guys to his team. My boutiques are booming right now. Life for me is perfect;
Hardest Thing I Ever had To Do. Life is full of pain, sorrow and difficulties. Everyone has experienced something very painful at one time in their life. What was the hardest thing was in my life? I asked the question to myself? Nothing in particular came to my mind, but what do I feel when thinking about” the hardest thing and painful” that I never can forget? Sadness and depression comes to mind. Do you know how it feels to lose someone whom we love the most and are very close to us? I know.
