My Best Experience

They don’t happen in a meeting or two. It’s a package deal, Friendship, only as valuable as what you put in it. Judging something like that after one year, even if you’ve got all the facts, that’s like looking for the final score before you’ve seen the second inning.” Over time, through the difficulties we had endured together; we had grown closer than ever. That is how I know that my friends really mean the world to me. Through the pain of mistrust, and lies, we became better friends than we had ever been. It is better to have one or two best friends than hundreds of acquaintances. It was not until I had to move away to Phoenix in my junior year that we realized what we meant to each other. The word “Best” found its way into our vocabulary and stuck to our title as friends. It seems foolish to me when after a month of friendship people call themselves “Best Friends.” The “Best Friend” title has to be earned through time, effort, and pain. I am proud to say that I have earned that title with two people, and I honestly do not think I could get through life’s difficulties without them.

WAAS, the Wild Area Augmentation System is an air navigation system developed by the FAA to Augment GPS satellites. WAAS is used to track aircraft in flight to better improve its accuracy and ability to locate aircraft within 25 ft. actual measurements of the system have shown accuracy as precise as 3 ft 3 in. laterally and 4 ft 11 in. vertically throughout most of the United States and Canada. The WAAS system has the ability to critique itself and correct problems such as incorrect signals in as little as 6.2 seconds. The WAAS system does this by using ground segment stations that continuously measure the small variations in GPS satellites in the Western

2:35 a.m. Even though it was something that I had experienced before, the pain still took me my surprise. And it was only the beginning. I had finally fallen asleep around midnight. My parents had come down to Indiana for a weekend visit and we had stayed up a little late enjoying our visit with each other after the boys had gone to bed. There were two bedrooms in my little apartment and I had given them the use of mine, deciding to sleep with my two children in the other room. Being two weeks overdue with my third child and still working full-time as a waitress, I practically passed out when my head finally touched the pillow. That is, until a bad cramp woke me from my peaceful slumber. Still groggy from

A smile, a small compliment from a stranger or a word of encouragement all have the ability to brighten someone’s day. These same actions can even change a person’s life. Inspiration can strike at any moment. For me, it was at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City sometime in March of 2011. It wasn’t a smile or kind word that changed me, but a musical number, a group of dancers, and an orchestra five feet in front of me.

Life is a journey and I wasted part of it. My freshmen year I was thinking the same thing that the vast majority of other high school students were, “When does school end?” This attitude, where I prioritized personal entertainment and immediate satisfaction as a priority over the hypothetical bump in the road that I chose to ignore, is what led me to get a ~2.3 GPA my freshman and sophomore year. I spent my after school hours spending as much time playing video games as I could and trying to put in as little effort as I could into school while still getting a grade that would not completely disappoint my family. According to source 1, “about 25% of freshmen fail to graduate high school on time.” I was on that path. During my summer after sophomore year, I decided to start looking into colleges and what requirements they had to enroll, and I was shocked at what I found. I found that in my position I would not enroll in the large majority of the universities that peaked my interests. It was this sudden realization that hit me, like a tsunami of life crashing down on me, making me realize that I was wasting my potential and making things more difficult for myself. I had always been so wrapped up in the quests that were made for me in the games that I played, that I became heedless to the most epic quest of all, such being the quest of life. I believe that my realization that my future depends upon the decisions I make, what I wanted from my future, and how close it really is

I, Jacklyn started playing volleyball in 7th grade. My friend Diana wanted me to play for our school, so she wouldn’t be alone. I was nervous because I wasn’t sure if I wanted to play volleyball to make matters worse I had never watched nor played volleyball in my life.

We get to know the people around us, what their personality is like, what they like to do, how they live, how they smell, and what their food tastes like off the ground. I personally enjoy the red, juicy meat which usually comes between two buns. While I try and talk to Sarah, my owner, my tongue doesn’t allow it. My day mostly consists of sitting, sleeping, chasing after the Gerald, the cat, waiting for Sarah to get home and sometimes I am able to get into this metal can in the kitchen with multitudes of heavenly treats; however, there is this thing, it sits on the right side of the porch on the back of the house, Sarah turns it on and she starts cooking. Horrible things come out of it; Smoke, fire, steaming hot objects, and worse Sarah even stands near it.

One of the real pleasures in being a member of Mario’s Band of Backpackers, was our weekend a month being in the wilderness. Even if it was only in the mountains surrounding Los Angeles.  Wild Horse Creek is actually further east in the San Bernardino Mountains.  Usually, the weekend. would be, some five or six miles, in this situation it was only four miles, to Wild Horse Creek.  There we would all tell our stories, relax around a campfire, have lunch, and later in the afternoon we would have dinner.  After breakfast, we hiked back over the same route as the previous day. Great Fun!

When we could get everyone rounded up and on the same schedule, my parents, brothers and I would pack up and go on our one “big” vacation of the summer. When I was8 one, we went to Mount Rushmore and witnessed the fireworks display. At the age of two, we were at the “grandaddy” of them all, Cheyenne Frontier Days. In 2003, I was three, we went spelunking in caves to explore Ruby Fall, Tennesse. I remember nothing about these vacations, except what I was told years later about them. However, when I was the ripe young age of four, my family went on vacation to Upper Peninsula Michigan. That vacation is, to this day, my favorite one we ever took. This is probably due to it being the very first vacation that I can actually remember. Over the years we have traveled to many different places, but the vacation to Michigan is by far my most memorable experience. The events that occurred on this trip instilled a sense of adventure and curiosity into me.

My childhood was never something that seemed to be a typical boy’s childhood. I never watched sports as kid since the T.V. channel was dictated by my parents so all we watched were shows like Law & Order, CSI, and Fear Factor. I never learned about cars whatsoever and talking about girls always perplexed me. I never understood how someone could base their feelings about someone based off physical appearances, but that could just be because I was very pessimistic and was always very distant of people in general. Video games are something that I loved to play and was something I thought would a normal guy thing. While I had played video games, they mainly consisted of Nintendo games which are generally much more docile than games than what most guys played, which consisted of first person shooter games such as Halo and Call of Duty. This lead to awkward moments when trying to have conversations with other guys, especially when I was going into high school.

As I went on my daily adventure, I thought that everything would go the same way. My bike which I named Purple was my favorite thing on earth. I had been going on these same adventures since I could remember. The bike rides started out being mainly fun and games, but before long, it was something that meant a lot to me. It meant a lot to me because that was a moment I could be myself and feel free. Each adventure was never exactly the same, but none of them ever failed in any way. Little did I know that this adventure would be one that I'd remember because of the great amount of tragedy I faced.

As a freshmen there are many experiences and trials you ,must overcome in order to support yourself as a student .These actions don’t come easily and may take may attempt before learning from them. If you choices to neglect taking these action it will only end hurting you later on in your academia career. In my personal experiences, I should have been more informed of on compass resources like the AEC alongside with improving my own actions like improving important skill such time management and communication in order to support my success.

In this past assignment that I made was that i need it to make some community hours. At first i was only doing this because of the grade that i need in order to pass the class, but when i was accomplishing this i had made a lot of memories that i did not think that i would be able to do it. What the professor told me to do was to accomplish only nine hours in the past four months of school. So that means that i did not need to make a lot of places in order to achieve this hours. What i decided to do was to do the hours very quick, so i only visited two places. In one of the places that i went i did three point five hours and in the other place i made five hours. One of the places that i went was the palm fest that was going on in the civic center in Mcallen, i never knew that this place was happening for year so my first time going to this place was serving my community hours. It was cool because not only did i experiment this event that i did not that existed but i also was excited to know how everything work inside this event. This was also cool because it was like a latino thing, for example, there were a lot of mariachi band performing and one of those mariachi band i had the pleasure to be part of them. People that went to this event was mostly happy to know about our tradition as latinos. Aside of performing with the mariachi i was inside playing with the kids, what they need it to do was go to all the station that were inside the building and collect stickers from

In a school setting I have very little experience working in groups. I have always been part of classes where presentations and work is performed individually. However, I like to collaborate with others. I am willing to do my best to help the group be successful in this class. In my job, we work as a team, which has helped me become more comfortable with team work.

It was a dark and stormy night, and my family and I had dinner reservations at one of the top restaurants in Toronto. On this day, I woke up feeling a bit tingly and excited, and it wasn’t because I had taken viagra the night before. No, I could tell that something interesting was going to happen that day — I could just feel it. On a side note, it was father’s day that day, and to celebrate this yearly tradition, we had rented out a VIP-style room at STK, my favourite steak restaurant. The day went by as any other day, and the moment 6 o’ clock hit, my family and I put on our best snobbish attire and hit the scene. We arrived at STK at 6:35, just on time for our 6:45 reservation and were escorted to our seating area.
