Autobiography Life is hard to understand sometimes it give us lessons about something that can impact on the way who we are by the experiences we had suffered along our life. Those experiences people received from it could have a big impact on their lives, those people can be influenced in a good way or in a bad way. In my life I have had a lot different experiences that influenced me in a good and bad ways but, I feel more in good way, a clear example of those good experiences that have influenced
Hope Rebecca Davis, a little formal don’t you think? You’d think that my parents thought I was going to be the hope of the world or something of that sort, but that is the farthest from the truth. I was named Hope just because my mom thought that Hope was a “pretty” name. As you know that was probably a bit disappointing for me, but my name represents a great deal to me. Hope means to have a feeling of expectation or desire for a certain thing to happen… then I considered the following, I can be
great deal in the past 16 years of my life, mainly due to my parent’s commitment to raise me through experience and new cultures (thank you guys). Of course, a lot of adventures comes with learning to lean into discomfort and struggle. Some of what’s in here isn’t going to be peachy, so I ask you keep it confidential. My parents and I share pretty openly so I can assure you they know of my road bumps. From the time I was born, I have been a very adventurous soul. My first memory involves near death
best decisions of my life. Starting college, being broke and alone, I was nervous to see where this path was going to take me. It only took one block for me to realize that I had made the greatest decision I possibly could have at the young age of nineteen. This process has taught me many lessons. I have grown into an educator with a rare look on the world. As I reflect on my experience, I look to the outcomes for the bachelor's degree and I cannot be more excited about my experience. Outcome 1 :develop
day and night before my 15th birthday was spent in the ER with a crippling migraine. The feeling of being treated like there was nothing wrong with you, and you were just faking it must be the worst feeling I have ever felt in my life. Chronic migraines affect people differently and can cause so many different problems. This is when it all started, when it got better, and when it began to go downhill all over again. The most impactful moment of my life during this experience is when I first went
encountered different environments, people and communities. In my life, I experienced about 3 different communities. These communities have helped shaped me for who I am. For example, the first was a small town here in Texas, about half an hour from Uvalde. Batesville had been where both of my parents were raised and I, myself, had been raised there for a total of 2 years. Throughout my life, my family and I have constantly moved around. My dad being in the Marines, we always got stationed between
statement’s significance, I was struck by the realization that I cannot point to one place or time in my life to find where I’m from. In the last twenty years of my life, I have lived on both the east and west coast of the United States, and shifted between all sorts of communities across the socio-economic and cultural spectrum. It is through my experiences in these places that I have learned to find strength in my loved ones, have confidence in myself, and look towards the future with anticipation. I was
Volunteering is an important part of my life, so Tulane’s emphasis on community engagement is one reason we’re a good fit. I actually had the opportunity to travel to New Orleans in the summer of 2016 through the Rustic Pathways organization to help rebuild the city from Hurricane Katrina. Even though I technically spent two weeks aiding others, the experience helped me more than I ever imagined it would. Not only did I immerse myself in the vibrant culture of New Orleans, but I learned firsthand
hope, motivation, or joy. After hitting a brick wall in my path towards graduating, I felt totally incapacitated. Suddenly, through the struggle and pain shone a tiny, fluffy, and cuddly beacon of light. Her name would eventually be Boogies. She brought a purpose back into my life. Her love filled a void in my heart that I could not have previously defined. My relationship with my cat has helped me regain ambition and a true excitement for life. I was overwhelmed when I came across this assignment
It has been drilled into my mind by family, teachers, and just about every adult in my life that school is an awesome experience that provides students with an equal opportunity to succeed. That I shouldn’t take advantage of my time in school because I’ll miss it when I’m done. Yet I feel I have tried so diligently to feel this way about school and I still haven’t found what I’m looking for. Every decision I have made in my educational career has reflected on me as a person. There are things I am
