My Story Of My Life

We have both have the same interests. We are both only children. Both her and I enjoy volleyball, softball, music, and we have pretty much the same friends! Her favorite restaurant is Subway. Kailey dislikes country music, spicy foods, and scary movies. She dislikes math, and books that leave you wondering what happened. Her biggest Pet Peeve is when she can hear people chewing. Both of our favorite subjects are English and science. We like and dislike almost the same exact activities.

“So I guess I’ll pick you up around noon, so that we can go on more of an adventure tomorrow.” Archie suggested.

Brennan Doyle, my boyfriend of two years, works here after school to help out his dad. Sometimes, when I come and he is working, I realize how amazing he is.

“Ok, I’ll think about it, but I wouldn’t get your hopes up. I’ll tell you tomorrow over by the north lockers, ok?” I said.

“Yeah, yeah... You want to go to the ice rink for the evening. I’ll drop you off. Will you be okay walking home afterwards?” He asked in a serious tone.

"Oh, well in that case, I definitely will. Should I pick you up at 7:30?" I asked.

It was nine-forty-five when I left. I gave Grammy a big hug so tight that I felt as if I were glued to her. Finally, I began my journey.

“Maybe after we go and eat lunch, but not right now, okay?” my parents replied.

The girls have many similarities when it comes to appearance, like their skin tone, facial features, hair color, and body build. Looking at the two there is no doubt that they are sisters. Physical features are not the only similarities they share though, they also have many of the same personality traits. For example they are both major daddy`s girls, they both enjoy spending time with family, and enjoy the same movies. Both of the girls are hard headed and stubborn, but they are both very loveable and are two of the sweetest little girls you would ever

Morning soon came and my dad, my younger sister Niomi, my sister Nina, and I were all ready to leave and finally begin the drive to Chicago. Not to mention, it would be about six hours to arrive there. Finally, after

My life wasn’t always so phony and insubstantial. I had a life once , a real one, but I threw it away for the “better” make-believe version. Now here I am, standing on the ledge, with no parachute to catch me in my decent. Staring down into the vaporous abyss that is, my ticket out. All I have to do is leap, and gravity will carry out the rest.

This paper will detail the journeys of my life that lead to my marker moments. Each marker was born out of a circumstance or ah-ha moment. A moment that opened my mind and heart and branched out towards the path of leadership in my life. There are three that I will speak about for the purpose of this paper although there are many more. The three that stand out the most are my first trip to Jamaica, Transitioning into Christianity and Returning to School in that order.

I am here to tell you my story about how I struggled dearly throughout high school and how I am back in school to try and start my life. Usually, all college students’ stories are the same give or take a couple of details. I guess you could say that I have had normal college experience except for a couple hiccups along the way. The usual “normal” timeline would grade school, high school, then college. I tried to do it that way but it did not work out so well for me personally. Even though school has not always been the most intriguing to me, I decided to go back so that I could get my degree and I could start my career, to be able to start my “adult” life finally. So here is my story of how I got to where I am and where I hopefully will be in five years.

“Fine, I’ll go, but I don’t know if I am going inside or not yet.” I stated.

People don’t realize the sad truth that I’ve been holding on for and secretly suffering with most of my life. People seem to see me as a girl that is naturally bubbly, happy, and outgoing. This was a way for me to hide my real emotions in the time when my depression and anxiety were major factors impacting my self-esteem, just a couple of years ago. So, yes, I admit it -- I was a victim of depression and anxiety. My anxiety has been occurring ever since I was a toddler. My usual anxious behavior would be when I would easily get nervous, wouldn’t talk that well in order to be understood, would go through emotional meltdowns at times, and so forth. My depression however, seem to connect a lot with my anxiety because of my meltdowns and it would easily bring my self-esteem down. One interesting fact about my depression is that it got extreme when I was in middle school. Many events in that time of my life made me feel absolutely worthless inside.
