I never wanted to deal with anybody .I started seeing the world as a dark place. I always wanted to be alone and i felt like everyone was talking about me like i was always doing something wrong and something about that feeling played with my emotions. I soon ran into something that felt like depression. I always thought about the negative things that could happen which started to run people away which made me feel like the odd one out of everyone. However, me looking back on how this affected me was crazy. I’m kind of mad at myself for not finding a different way to maintain what i had going in the beginning of junior year. Everything that i felt that year could've been avoided if i just found a different way to be happy. Since all that happened , I've had a different view on how i handle things and on how i see the world.

I found these ways by someone pushing me to be better

My life has been a crazy roller coaster with many events that have affected my life all in different ways. There have been times where my life has been at its highest peak in the world then it falls down, right into a deep valley. From the time my lovable younger sister came into my life to when my grandpa had a near death experience, I have learned many valuable lessons through the rough times as well as the more happy times. When I was a young girl, my mom had always told me the same thing over and over again. I never really thought about how a few words would have a deep effect on me in a short amount of time.

I would get ready in packing my books, Sherlyn my sister, two years younger would be pestering me about how she is better than me at everything but despite this problem, together with Sylvia we will leave the house and she will take us to the catechism. I recall how she used to get very angry at me She would get mad and hit me on the shoulder I will respond and bump into her before telling me I am stupid, but not after I say that a stupid person is the stupid one for saying that a person is stupid, of course, it doesn't make sense at all even so Sylvia will demand for us to stop the fight before, sisters should love each other not fight that fighting is just ugly. I walk behind her and Sylvia she would walk right behind me, that road every Saturday afternoon, I could smell gasoline from my father business that was not far from where I was and overhear the sound of a motorcycle rumbling in the street unrestrained, I looked at the sky, blue with such a pure color of white clouds, I close my eyes for a moment to enjoy the moment.

Adults seeking to complete their undergraduate or graduate degrees bring a unique perspective to the college classroom — life experiences. For many adult students’ life experiences delayed the ability to attend college but valuable learning occurred by having careers, raising families, and traveling. Schooling in the traditional sense is void of knowledge unless academic teachings can be experienced and practiced in real-life (Carroll, 2015). While not all life experiences can be classified as college-level learning, an adult brings a level of maturity to their studies that are not often seen in the traditional college student. The value of experiential learning can be quantified not only in the adult learner but also in those that choose a second career in teaching.

Although my life has only been a short sequence of fifteen years, I've come to heartily believe that life is only as good as what you make it. The effort I put in to be a good person has truly affected the outlook I have on life due to personal karma. These life lessons have recently come to my best attention and interests. True colors have surfaced immensely during the past two years that I have taken on the combats of high school friendships, relationships, and learning self-worth. Despite the pity I have thrown before, I can now boast with purpose, the distinctive endeavors I have overcome. Lessons learned from these hardships have taught me that the more I go through young, will have been worthwhile and much appreciated as I grow older.

What is a sport? If you look it up in a dictionary it is defined as “An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.” For me sports is so much more than that.

“Mom, when I grow up; I’m moving to New York City!” I remember telling my mother at the tender age of twelve. That dream of living in the big apple stayed in the back of my head until it finally became a reality. I was twenty years old and was ready to come into my own, so I made one of the most significant decisions of my life. A decision that is most responsible for the evolvement of a young boy having to quickly become a man. I moved to New York City. It was there that I would soon learn, that along with all the excitement and responsibilities associated with this new chapter of my life, also came a ton of fears and many lonely nights. It was there, where I would have to learn to fend for myself to survive. After all, this was an enormous unfamiliar city full of people, tall buildings, unforgettable noises, a distinctive scent and big dreams. It was there, in New York City, that I would grow up and spend the next sixteen years of my life.
