Personal Narrative-A-Team

Group project, as defined by the Business Dictionary: A collection of individuals that come together to achieve a stated objective. Group project, as previously defined by myself: a dreadful situation that I would try to avoid as much as humanly possible.

As a paraprofessional one of the biggest problems that is face is the collaboration between the team of the student you work with. I work on a team of twenty-one people who I must communicate with most of them daily or weekly basis. The main issue I face is working with the Special Education teacher and regular classroom teacher in curriculum. The reason being is that I don’t get things modified for my student occurring to the IEP and preview the materials ahead of time. Just being given the material to work with the day of is hard because if I must modify I don’t get the planning time to do so. Then I run into the student having behaviors cause the material is too hard. Looking at the problem-solving worksheet from De Boer I really like the

If I'm in...I'll be All-In. While I'll be the first of family and friends to attend the University of Colorado, Boulder and unsure of the challenges within the campus community, I know myself. I am at my best when I fully commit.

The team and I joked around to try and release our nerves. Something was bugging me though, I kept thinking back to when Durkins told me that Lincoln had said that we were going to lose(4). I was really shocked, I mean, I knew Lincoln trusted his old team more than he trusted us but I had dismissed that as a new kid kind of thing. That didn’t mean I was all cool about it though, I was angry that he wasn’t confident in his team to win against Franklin. Although that anger may be from the times that Lincoln disobeyed Coach or from when he trusted his old team more than his new team even though we were his new team. MitchelI put Mitchell in a headlock and a little later Lincoln strode into the locker room. I let go of Mitchell and straightened up. “ Durkins says you said that we’re goin’ to lose. Why did you say that?” I remarked.

Now that I have a girlfriend her parents, and my parents know, her parents also now know that i’m a militia leader. With them knowing that they figure I can keep her safe, so I guess her parents like me.

My feelings were all over the place. I was depressed, frustrated, upset until one of my friends came up to me and said “Hey don’t sweat it bro, if it wasn’t you it would have been one of us.” It didn’t make me feel any better but it was true. We got second place at a state championship. Next we had to line up to get the trophies and congratulate the other team. We walked into line to receive our trophies. Coach was asked to bring up our team captain to receive the runner up trophy. No one knew who that was, but our coach did. Coach yelled out “Carlos, Chase go!” Chase and I looked at in surprised and fist pumped each other. It was an honor for me to share the team captain with a good friend, Chase, but it was an even bigger honor to be a team

My pursuit of Kelly began almost a year before we met. I was at one of my best friends Ryan's house and I noticed Kelly's picture was on their wall. Immediately I asked Ryan's girfirend, Rugila aka Roo, every question she would tolerate to answer.

A point where one can only take so much before the fear eats away viciously at the soul. Slowly tearing away its prey bit by bit, until the victim can’t take it anymore. A point where all of the nervousness builds up and tips the glass jar over, and all those feelings that you were keeping bundled up inside spill out. A point where shaking has made your legs move so fiercely that they feel like jello, and with one stab they could be pierced and broken. A point where your heart has grown a pair of wings, and is flapping frantically to escape the cage that denies its freedom and ability to feel at ease. In all the final moments you’re left with your mind, that’s processing and soaking in the shouts and the screams.

In team member, I have a chance to work with other people who came from different countries and nationality such as American, Jamaica, Singapore, China and Philippines. I enjoy working and talking together with a team so we exchanges ideas about daily life and tourist attraction in the U.S.A. One day, the sky is clear and the weather is very hot that made the theme park had a lot of people who went with families and friends. While I controlled the playing machine and my friends checked a safety belt of people in the train. Unfortunately, I saw the woman who was shaking and seemed to faint. I thought she had epilepsy since her shaking on the train. Furthermore, a hot weather and long queue would be a key factors to make her increase. I decided

My family is full of musicians. My parents and my grandfather all play in the same wind band, in which my great grandfather used to play as well, so it was assumed that I continue the tradition. For a long time I thought that wind music is old-fashioned and certainly not ”cool” enough. I dreamt of becoming a famous singer making cheerful pop music. I’ve changed a lot since then.

“Ok,we will see who wins next week, if you guys think you guys are goody tissues then we will see who wins”

Generations and generations of my family have been Christians who followed Christ; so I grew up going to church and serving the Lord. I loved school, learning, and the Lord. Those were my three passions growing up. I did exceptionally well every year of school. I received A’s and a 4.0 GPA throughout all my school years. By my freshman year of high school I was ahead credits and on the road to graduating early. Then a turn of events happened. I met a boy; who became my boyfriend. We were happy and in love. Although my family was against it, they permitted me to move in with his family because of our persistency. His family was perfect in my eyes; after all his parents were still married and mine were not. Even though I had two exceptional

“Tori, get the girls their flowers”, Coach Fran whispered to me behind stage. The team was an emotional wreck. This was the last time that our seniors would perform with us. Makayla was stressed about her favorite girl leaving, Jamie was having a breakdown in the dressing room, and Haylie was trying to comfort her, and my coach was expecting me to be an anchor for the whole team in this situation. I quickly raced over as quietly as I could to my coach.

All around the country, students are being pressured to figure out the next step they’re going to take after graduation. Those with a higher intelligence might have been asked the dreaded question as early as their middle school years. Adults see this question as a good conversations starter, but as a student, they feel more pressure the more they are asked. In a way it is good to have that constant reminder to be on top of the game. Having this nagging reminder, the student should strive to have their decisions made or at least their options laid out simply to have an answer for the multitude of questions they will face. It’s important to be ahead of the game when it comes to college preparations.

My family and I were forced to leave our home in Syria on October 16 2016. I will never forget that day for
