Personal Narrative: Gabriela

When most people hear my full name , “Joann Botani," they automatically assume I'm Italian, but truth is I am actually Middle Eastern. From what I know my dad does have a little Italian in his blood but the name “Botani” actually comes from a city in Turkey. I come from an upper-middle class house hold and I have two younger siblings, a brother and a sister. Being the oldest has its challenges because there is so much expected from me whether it is school, work or social life. I tend to think my younger siblings have it easier because I am the one who pushes the boundaries with my parents and because of that my siblings usually get to do what ever the want because it is not as extreme as what I do. It has always been easy for my younger sister because she is the “princess” of the house but I am my dad’s favorite while my brother is a momma’s boy. My family is very competitive when it comes to school and grades, my little brother and I were always duking it out

My name is Aline Gutierrez and I live in Phoenix AZ. I am currently working on a BA for Justice Studies. I am Mexican (actually born in Mexico). I guess I consider myself Hispanic. I speak Spanish and for the most part, celebrate many of the Hispanic traditions.

I apologize for a late reply. I wasn't in my office today, but I'll be back tomorrow. I need to check Hunter's student file before answering your question. I remember that Hunter is one of our new students at McBride and another ELL teacher had assessed his English proficiency. In general, students are eligible to receive up to five years of English language support if required.

I prefer you start by asking me questions, so I can get in the mood because I don’t feel ready for […] I can tell you about my life and about how the whole art thing started. When I was fourteen years old I suffer an attack on my spine. When I was a boy, a draw a lot, but they were mostly school-related. I show them my work in L.A. [Los Angeles] because they liked a lot there. I lived next to a Mexican neighborhood. What was its name? “Maravilla”, it was very dangerous. The pachucos of that time lived

Who am I. Who am I? I am the color orange, strong and fiery like a lion’s luxurious mane billowing in the savanna’s breeze. I am cheesy and dorky, similar to this introduction. I am Vicky Giuliano.

Last year, 2016, scaled to my first tournament that would be played at Marista. I would not

As well as green and blue I love the color black. Why black? It is a sad color! To me when I look to the color black I look to the black you see at night. The black that comes in the absence of the sun, it magically transforms everything to a wonderland, amazing and beautiful. The black with small dots that I used to see when I go to the park at night, and when I lay on the grass and look up and night, it seems like I’m drowning in the beauty of the sky full with adventures.

Patience is wearing thin , the shocking moment is almost here. Then a miracle happens! A beautiful brown eyed baby is born into this world.

Have you ever wanted to get something done but people doubt you throughout the way? Well I, Yvonne DeCarlo, experienced much of that but ended up being successful and proving a lot of people wrong.

Throughout my life there have been few people that have made an impact in my life, but the one that has made the greatest influence in me is my older and only sister, Diana Cienfuegos. Although we often argue, I know I was very fortunate to have someone who guided me through the right path in life. My sister has been my role model as a student, given me strength when I need it, and helped me in whatever she could to make me happy.

“I’ll see you soon. I’ll see you when we all live in peace and harmony. I’ll see you on the other side.” My great-grandmother, Minda, was a ninety-one year old lady from Russia who had a passion for dance and music. Minda, I called her Omi, filled any room with joy and happiness. Omi fell deaf at a very early age, which led to her family's move to America to get a stapedectomy which repairs hearing loss. Unfortunately, doctors in America were unable to save her hearing. Even though she was deaf, she still sang and danced her way through life, until the very end.

My favorite colours are yellow and black. These colours compliment the sage archetype perfectly. Yellow means enlightenment and wisdom. Sages seek to find wisdom, they bring enlightenment to others about subjects that they might not know about. I find myself doing this a lot, trying to teach others about the subject as I’m very knowledgeable or very wise in that subject.

Aileana and I made plans to jog along the beach and then go out surfing today. We decided to meet on the beach around nine this morning. I thought I would surprise her later with something different she would delight in. I wanted this to be a special day of having fun and enjoying each other. She now felt up to exercise. Her ribs still gave her a few twinges when taking deep breaths, but her face was back to its beautiful contours with her lush lips back to their kissable self.

I believe that it is great you are inquiring about Ms. Holman and I will be honored to tell you about my time of knowing her. I met Jenna when I was stationed with her at Fort Bliss, TX and I am happy to have worked with her there, we remain friends today. I have known Jenna now, almost 10 years. Since I've known her, my opinion of her, is that she is a very bright person with an impeccable mindset. She is a hard worker and possess a strong character of heartiness. While I did not work with her on a daily basis, the times that I did, I have observed her work ethics and the way she upheld policies and procedures. I believe that she is a trustworthy person and very supportive to everyone, when they ask for her assistance. Even if she notice something

Ariana hasn't been answering any of my messages or any of my calls. I eventually decided to give up and I went and took a shower.
