Please describe the factors and challenges that have most shaped your personal life and aspirations. How have these factors helped you to grow? (800)

Lastly, was the topic I found most compelling, community colleges. Did you know 55 out of 100 graduating students at a university actually went to a community college? That's an amazing statistic because it gives a second chance for those of us who didn't meet university requirements. Not to mention, some of the faculty told us they graduated from Goldenwest as well. This information made me feel more secure that I was on the right track to my academic success.

I chose the topic are college athletes given preferential treatment over non-athletes while in college because it is something very controversial in college athletics. Besides being controversial, I also find the topic very interesting. It is interesting to me to find out why college athletes get special treatment to play a sport when in reality the special treatment is probably a disservice to the athletes. Another reason I enjoy this topic is that I love sports in general and college athletics are some of my favorites to watch.

One topic that stuck out to me the most during this semester was chapter seven, which is The Working Poor and the Underclass. I feel as if this chapter is and will always be a big topic in society today. Being in nursing school and working at the local hospital in our community, I feel as if this is an issue I encounter a lot. Many people I care for on a daily basis are in poverty and cannot pay for their hospital bills. I see homeless people and other individuals barely surviving and just want a warm place and a meal to enjoy. From reading this chapter, I learned that there were different types of poverty, the amount that poverty exists, as well as new information about the homeless population.

The topic that was the most influential to me was the personality types. This topic has also been something interesting to learn about. First we were able to find our personality type and I turned out to be an ISTJ. Learning my personality type made me realize different things. For example, it has given me the idea that I need to be more extraverted to be an excellent nurse. It has also given me the chance to learn the best way to study. Being an ISTJ, I learned that I like to be very organized. Since my personality type states that I am a person who is very organized. This is true because I like to organize all of my information, especially notes, in a certain way. Or when I need to study, the best way to study would be in a quiet and isolated place. Introverts are known for liking their quiet and alone time.

There were many good topics we learned about this semester and the topic that I think is the best is when we learned about was the 19th Amendment. the 19th Amendment was created to give women their rights. Around the roaring twenties there was a big protest called the women’s rights movement which caused women to have their rights granted to them. Before this movement women did have the right to do anything really, they didn’t have the right to vote, they didn’t have have the right to own anything, they could not go out and buy anything because they could not work, and they could not do as they pleased. Women only really had a few jobs and that is stay at the house all day cook, clean, and take care of their husbands. This is why the Women’s

My entire life, my parents have always wanted what was best for me. My dad, an immigrant who moved here at the age of seven, speaking not one word of english. He lost his father at the age of five, and his mother at the age of sixteen. Therefore, he practically raised himself. He graduated high school from Honokaa High & Intermediate School, but had no desire or intention to further his education. My mom, born and raised in Puna, had parents who were separated for majority of her life. A father who wasn’t very involved in her life, and a mother who chose drugs over everything else in her life, especially her five kids, my mother being the second youngest. My father, for all of my life, has worked six days out of the week, to provide everything I could ever possibly need; along with my mother, who has, at times worked multiple jobs at once, to support me, in

I chose the topic “How did Gloria Steinem influence the discussion of women’s rights?” because feminism is an interesting topic to me, and it is an overlooked topic that should be talked about more often in society. In a society that is so dominant by men, women think they can’t change it. But, with this topic, it can show how just a simple book, or an idea can start up an entire movement just by influencing each other. Also, even in today’s

I am Naazima one the pharoahs, everyone loved because of my beauty. I was very tall, sophisticated, generous, and loving. I was special, there were hardly any women pharoahs. I became a pharoah at the age of 19, daughter of Nkosi and Rehema. I lived in Luxor, Egypt, but when I got older I moved to live with my husband Omarr. Omarr lived in Cairo, Egypt known for its Sphinx and Giza pyramids. I sadly had to leave my family because I was forced to marry Omarr. Omarr was disrespectful and abusive which I didn’t like. My beautiful children, Yaron and Yemima were bundles of joy I loved them dearly. I hated to see them hurt, crying from getting beaten by there own father. One day, I had to make the scariest and hardiest of my life and leave Omarr.

Please describe the factors and challenges that have most shaped your personal life and aspirations. How have these factors helped you to grow? Be it puberty, evolutionary ancestral traits, or apricot trees that bear fruit too early, precociousness is not necessarily a good or bad thing. Growing up, this was a word frequently associated with me for two reasons; my natural intelligence and maturity despite my young age, and the skills that I had to adapt after my parents had divorced. The challenges that I’ve faced as a result of the divorce were not necessarily a bad thing either.

When my family was traveling to United State, I realized the life had challenge me to make me survive. The first day was hurdle for me because I could not cook my foods, clean my home, iron my clothes etc. I was crying everyday when I remembered my mother because I acknowledged to all people that my mother had potential to do all that stuff. On the other hand, I could not do any of these things. At the same time I had a problem, which I could not find a driver, which could take me to my school until my father found someone to take me to my school by own car. His name is Aziz and he was kind to me. I admire my parents since they helped me and resolved any big problems that faced to me. When I missed my

One topic I found interesting was the one about Bonnie and Clyde. I've heard about them but I never heard their story. Reading it in Kyjuan Martin’s infographic created a deeper meaning of the story to me. I learned that Bonnie was very smart. She had great grades and was “amongst the brightest of her peers.” Her family raised her as a Christian and so she has always been one. Clyde, on the other hand, had a life of the opposite. He would have died as a child due to not having much to eat but his parents gave up on their farming business and searched for something that gave them more money. His life was hard but he found his safe place in playing the guitar and saxophone. Later, his brother created a criminal out of him. He was sent to a prison

Some of the things that have shaped me into the person that I’m today are my family, the people that I grow up around, some of the events In my life. There are many events that have shaped me in the the person that I’m today. Also the people that I have grown up around has dramatically helped shape me into the person I am. My family is one of the main things that have helped shape me into the person I’m today. One of my early memories are of my mom working and going to school at the same time to take care of eleven kid son her own. We also used two have a garden and we would go there everyday to take care of the plants. But my mom started to work all of the time so we were no longer aboul to go there so me and my sister made a garden in the back yard so that when my mom had time we could still garden. That is why one of my hobbies is gardening.

The three things that have made the biggest impact on and have influenced my life that shaped me into the person I am today are family background, experiences from my school year, and religious beliefs. Our culture provides a lens through which we view the world and interpret our everyday experiences. In order to know who I am today, I must look at who you’ve been. Many educators around the country are interested in developing a multicultural approach in their teaching. They find themselves in classrooms with 25 children of varying racial and cultural backgrounds, and are looking for ways to connect what they do in the classroom to the cultures represented by their students. Before we can begin to understand others, however, we need to understand ourselves and what we bring to our interactions with others.

So far in the semester I have had a top three out of all the chapter and subjects we have learned about. I chose to start with psychological disorders because I find the concept of multiple personalities and what it abnormal and normal to be interesting. Second, I decided to go with sexuality and gender because sexuality is something that we all struggle with every day along with identifying who we are. Lastly, I decided to go with stress and health because stress is also something that we go through daily and struggle with.
