Life Events 2016-2017
I’ve had many good and bad life events in my life so far from 2016 to 2017. Many of them changed my life and many of them left a dent in my life. They changed who I am today and glad they did. These are some turning points that have happened in my life.
2016, in the end of 5th grade, my parents officially got divorced and went to court dealing and working through the changes. Because of that, my parents now live separately, which is hard in my life now because some days I can’t see my mom or some days I can’t see my dad. At this time period, I struggled a lot in school and couldn’t focus. Though they might be divorced and separated, they luckily are now happier than before! We now have a schedule to organize things. Me and my sisters stay at my mother's house during the school week, while on the weekends, we stay at my father's home. This affected me in a bad and good way. Bad thing is that switching houses and having the leave or go to each others house, it's quite complicated, but the good thing is that I finally have my own room and my parents are much happier.

His name is Charlie and he is 2 years old. My mother wasn’t able to afford to buy an actual dog so her close friend had some extra dogs and gave one to her for free! He is so nice and an amazing dog. He is quiet at the most and shows everyone lots of love by cuddling and kisses! He is an amazing dog and me and my family are super thankful to have him! This so far is one of my favorite things that happened so far this year in 2017 and it affected me because he made all my stress go away and brought so much happiness to my
An important life event in my life happened when I was fourteen years old, my mother passed away. My mother was a symbol for me, she was everything a child needs and more. Of course when she was gone everything about who I was, and how I done things changed. Fortunately, as I healed I became more optimistic and happy in life. Now that I’ve been through all these things, I am a stronger person.
I was born December 16, 1998 in San Diego California. I was the third boy born, and the last child my parents would have. Although I got the special treatment that the youngest child always gets, there were some negatives to being the youngest. First of all, there is hardly any pictures of me. There are pictures, but by the third kid your parents start to get lazy. There are about a million photos of my oldest brother Frank and about ten of me. I like my name: Mitchell John McNeill. As a child, I was always very hyper. I was known as the kid with a lot of energy. Frankly, I liked being called that. I took it as a compliment and took pride in being energetic. I also always had a smile on my face as a kid. I would get excited

Our life events events make us who we are today. Getting step parents changed my life a lot. I was an only child till 8. My friends have played a big part of who I am. Without all these events I would probably have a different personality.
I also wanted to talk to you about a life event. As you already know, my mom is currently taking care of Lucas Francisco, however, she is going back to Colombia on January 2nd. I am looking forward to registering him on a day care that is close to Full Sail. However, they close at 6:00 PM, which means that I have until this time to pick him up, and I do not count with Francisco since he usually gets home after 8:00 PM. This might change, but it will not be anytime soon. With this said, I would like to ask you what are the chances of changing my schedule and work from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm, so that I have enough time to pick him up.
“Although I may not have it all, I will always have exactly what I need.”
I wonder why the hardships feel eternal but sometimes they are the best things for us. Do times of trials really make us better? Sometimes I really don’t believe this. But how do we learn and grow if things are never hard? If we lived in a perfect world then we would all be the same. Our circumstance must make us the people we truly are and who we become. I have never had much of a hard life. I’ve only had two people in my life die, my parents are still both together, and I got in to a great University. I have had pretty good odds through out my life. This was until last year I felt that my life was going under quick. It was never something that I thought would happen to me.
The only evidence that still exists as proof that she graduated from high school in 1980 is her graduation ring. Due to my mother’s financial constraints, she was not able to afford the ring, but acquired it through a friend’s kind gesture. Over time, it has become a symbol of an aspiration that extended from her to me. However, throughout my mother’s life, she has had many challenges facing her, not only in life, but also in education. Who I am today are blessings made possible by my mother’s sacrifices.
Even the smallest events can have the biggest impacts on a person’s life. These are some events that have impacted my life greatly. The first impact on my life was my parents telling me they were going to have my little sister. The next event that impacted me was my parents getting their second divorce. And the last event is my mom getting engaged to my soon to be step dad Dave.
A critical life cycle event that has impacted my family is the unexpected sickness of my maternal grandfather this past summer. My grandfather was hospitalized from four months, followed by living in a rehabilitation facility in order to gain his strength back. The sickness was unexpected and greatly impacted our family emotionally as we grappled with the notion that my grandfather may not have able to return home.
My life was outstanding after moving to Dallas. It was like something you read about in magazines or watch in a movie. I had the dream job, car, house, and social life. I worked as a bartender at the hottest nightclub in town and made a lot of money. I bought a beautifully restored 1961 Porsche, a lot like the one that James Dean had died in. My car had a pearl- white paint job, a red-leather interior, and aluminum alloy wheels with low-profile racing tires. I was living in a guesthouse on the estate of the nightclub owner; he lived in the mansion in front. We had parties there almost every night around the swimming pool.
There are many different life changing events that can change your life. Sometimes things happen in people’s life and they can’t do anything about it. Changes can be good and sometimes it can be a terrible thing that results in a positive turn in one’s life. Change is a part of life that no one looks forward to. Everyone’s life changes at some point. Life is full of many unexpected challenges that will be thrown in your face at any place and any time. People learn and grow from every experience that they go through in life. Some of the events that have changed my life was losing my grandmother, graduation, and going to college. Changes come almost every day in my life.
April Lecroy July 6 2015 My Life Changing event Up until about four years ago I would have listed any number of things from surviving child abuse at the hands of my psychotic uncle, to being a battered wife, the birth of my children, or having them kidnapped and fighting the local authorities to getting them home safe as my most lief changing event. All of that did play a part in making me the person I am today, but I have to say that the one thing that changed my life more than anything was watching my mother as cancer claimed her life. My mother was my best friend. I came home from the hospital on her 17th birthday, so growing up she was more like a sister than a mother. I was raised by my grandparents, so she was the cool big sister in my life. It wasn 't until after my grandmother passed away that she ever really became a “mom”. She never was like a parental authority in my life, she was always just there. My brother was her “golden child” who could do no wrong, even though I gave up everything to care for her when she got sick, he was the one who abandoned her in her time of need. I was helping my son with a homework project when I got a phone call saying my mom had been in a car accident about a mile up the road. Her oxygen tank had ran out and she was trying to change it while trying to drive. She hit a telephone pole and went airborne, jumped a bank and almost hit a building. I grabbed my son, my phone and my keys and went out the door, calling my brother on the way.
Growing up my life was not easy, I would frequently transfer from different schools, and I had to meet new students and teachers. I lived with my parents and three brothers in a small trailer home and times got tough while my step-father was working a twelve hour shift and having to provide for the whole family. My mother was a single mother for a few years so she was never able to sit down and talk to us because she always worked. I was always a quiet and shy little boy and it was not easy for me. We didn’t have enough money to buy luxurious things, name brand clothes, couple of pairs of sneakers, or even for all of us to get a decent haircut. One day, I picked up a pair of home clippers and practiced cutting hair on my three younger brothers. As time went on I decided to pursue the art of barbering and eventually enrolled at the Fort Pierce Beauty Academy. This was a significant life event because it brought me out of my shell, as I had to learn to interact with new people. The students there had to learn to do perms, coloring, tinting, twists, and of course different hairstyles. I made a lot of new friends at the barber academy and we always helped and motivated each other. At the academy I was not very shy, until I first began working at a barbershop that is when it really hit me. I was the new barber and although I knew how to cut hair, I was extremely nervous to cut someone I had never met before. I have met thousands of people and cut many
