My Life
I was born February 8th, 1998, in Lisbon, Portugal. I lived in a very pretty beach town my whole life called Ericeira. My mom, Maria, was born in Cuba, and she currently works as a translator for Neogen. Because she spoke in Spanish to us almost every day, me and my sister learned to understand and speak a little bit as well. My dad, Antonio, owns a dairy farm in Portugal and also fixes computers as a hobby. I have one little sister and two half sisters. My little sister’s name is Patricia and she is 17 years old. She currently attends Okemos High School.

They always incorporated healthy meals with either pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice, meat or fish, a side of soup, fruit, salad, and water. We could never leave the table until we showed our teacher that we had eaten enough. After, we were able to enjoy some free time outside, eat more at the food bar, play volleyball or soccer in the very spacious school grounds, or sit on the tables outside the cafeteria. We were not allowed inside the school during break unless it was to speak with a teacher or use the bathroom. On Wednesdays, we finished school at 12pm, only had 3 classes, and we ate our lunch at home. We did not have school sports, but we were always evaluated in our gym class, which was required. We did a variety of sports in gym class, and in the middle of the school year, if the gym teacher thought we did a good job, we could choose to participate in the school competitions. I always did running, and won 2nd and 1st place in my two years at the school. If one got 1st, 2nd or 3rd place, they were qualified to go and participate in races with other schools. We were also required to have music, religion, and english classes. This was a small private school, but it included people from grades 5 to 11, so there was a big age difference. For the two years I attended the school, I also had the same students and same class teacher, but we did move to another part of the building. I became really good friends

A field sobriety test is commonly used to see if a driver is under the influence of alcohol or other substances. It's important that drivers understand how the test works and what is involved so that they are prepared should they ever find themselves having to take one. Understanding the field sobriety test will also allow drivers to better understand their rights.

Breakfast, like all meals, was Spartan, consumed hurriedly in a refectory, and followed by three hours of recreation was limited, and bedtime was early. Weekends varied the routine by eliminating classes, but Sunday usually meant more time spent on religious observances. Until the 1950s, holidays for many of the students included periods of work and play at the school. Only from the 1960s on did the schools routinely send children home for

I am Skylair Caitlin Orr, I am 22 years old and am the daughter of Taunya and Marty Orr. I am lucky to say that my parents are still together rather than being divorced as so many parents are today. They had three children together, including myself. I am the middle child and I have two sisters. My older sister is 27 years old and works as a special education teacher at Mark Twain Elementary school. She is divorced and has two children: my niece who is eight years old and my nephew who is two years old. I spend a lot of my time with my niece and nephew. My younger sister is 15 years old and goes to school at Lafayette High School. My mom stayed at home and took care of the children while my dad worked hard to make sure we had everything we
The days began early in the morning, students were often summoned by a bell that would signify when to wake up, when to eat, and when to work and go to class, as seen in the first hand account of Pauline Dempsey who attended an Anglican residential school. “There was strict discipline at the school. There were certain times of the day when the bell rang and we had to adhere to the rules of the bell--to get up in the morning, to go to chapel, to go to eat, to go to the classroom, to signify our playtime, recess from class, and to go to bed” (Dempsey, 2011, ¶ 9). Breakfast and most commonly all meals were simple and were eaten quickly. The day for students
My full name is Christina Kaysone Chantharavongsa and I was born March 23, 1995 in Bridgeport Hospital located in Bridgeport, Connecticut. It was a little city and a small world since a ton of people would know each other. My parents were in an arranged marriage and were both moved to the United States from Laos during their high school years. But I’m actually half Laotian and Thai since my mom’s side is Thai from Thailand although she was born in an Asian Southeastern country called Laos. I’m the second oldest out of four children with two sisters and one brother. The order goes from Sarah, Christina (me),
Growing up in a home with both my parents, I was fortunate to be able to spend a lot of quality time with my father. We used to go out together and play soccer, baseball, and ride bikes. I remember we used to play a lot of old school video games and my mother would get pretty upset at the hours we spent playing and not doing anything productive. In my point of view, our relationship was perfect; our bond was strong like any father and son. I was only four years old when my world was turned upside down. My life changed the day that my mom and my dad separated, I felt alone. The process of a divorce was too much for a child that age to handle; it was a hard time for me. Although I had no father figure for about 12 years because my dad moved
To this day, I can still remember standing at the end of my driveway watching my mother arrive home from the bus stop. This day was different; she was not coming home empty handed. In fact, she had stopped at a yard sale on the way home and bought a prize for me, a doll named Suzy. This memory, from the age of two, embraces the story of my mother and my entire childhood. In Indianapolis, Indiana in September 1980, I was born to a single mother. Throughout her life, she worked for the phone company in downtown Indianapolis. Even though she raised us through hardships and despair, she always took the time to love my brother and me outwardly. Until second grade, I have no recollection of my father visiting more than three occasions. At last, in fourth grade we began to spend weekends at his house and with his family. Sadly, when I was eleven we learned that my father had cancer. One week before Christmas, after a school music program, I read his obituary in the paper and told my mother he had passed away. From that moment, our family forever changed, specifically my relationship with my mother.
Me and my parents have a really strong bond and we have a really strong relationship. They are the only ones in my life that help and support me in anything I do. They don't want me to give up because sometimes things get hard. My parents and I need to learn how to continue on and work through it without giving up. My parents know when something is wrong and I want to give up, but they always tell me to never give up and they make me work harder. I desire to be like them, I want to be strong and independent.
The lab report focuses on the experiments showing how contaminated water can be turned into uncontaminated water. The process was interesting to do, as well, watch happen with my own two eyes. The three experiments completed were: 1. Effects of Groundwater Contamination, 2. Water Treatment, and 3. Drinking Water Quality. During the experiment I used the tools provided in the Lab Kit, which included: Glass Beakers, gravel, sand, charcoal, cheesecloth, oil, and detergent, different brands of water, vinegar, alum, and bleach. All of which showed the contamination of the water once I started the
