Personal Narrative: Gene

I am a daughter, I am both an older and younger sister, I am a student and I am Brazilian. I`m not only what I do but also where I came from. Moving in to United States only reassured me what I learned from my country is still running in my veins. Once you are immersed in another `world` you not only have a main perception of the difference between cultures but it also makes you see with other eyes what is presented to you; that, is a completely break of pattern, an experience of dissemination and absorption of knowledge - a continuously critical thinking.

When I was young my Dad would always remind me of how important these years as a kid are. He would always say watch how you act as a kid, for it will set the stage for the rest of your life. So many people I know ruined their lives when they were kids. This small, yet so important statement runs through my mind everyday. I love how everyone says they don’t care what people think of them, but I wish they knew how important it is to have a good image. I am not perfect, but I would like to be close as possible. But as Salvador Dali said “Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it. “ The problem I see is everyone wanting to be someone that they are not. Sure, we all have our idols that we look

She carries symbolic bracelets and tangled up headphones and torn playbills. She carries crumpled sheet music, a highlighted play script, a rusty gun and holster, an old calculator, worn out journals for writing fragmented lyrics, passionate feelings, unforgotten memories, and so much more. Twice or three times a week she carries packets of law and a lunch that was packed that morning. She carries a water bottle that is always half empty, or much like herself, half full, depending on how you see it. Wyatt carries the priceless shark tooth necklace she gave him, locked away somewhere unknown. Hannah carries the cheap but meaningful books that she gave her, unread but still valued. Her mother carries the candy she gave her, hard but sweet, a reflection of her soul. Something they all carried in common, was that they all carried something that was given; taking turns, they carried pieces of her shattered heart.

Many people have left legacies from when they were alive. Some are good, and some are bad. Those people may not agree with what they have left behind, and some may be perfectly okay with theirs. For me, I would like to leave behind a legacy that shows my family that I was a good person. I would want them to know that I had good intentions for my life and that I wanted to do good for myself and others. In this essay, I will explain what I would like my legacy to be like.

The changing of Genetics has been around for awhile now, ever since the 20th century it is a set of beliefs and practice that aims at the improving the genetics quality of a human population . there was this mad scientist who stayed in a wooded house, that looked as if it was haunted , in the woods , he had been bullied all his life and once was even called “different and too ugly for society “, but when he got the head coaching job at YCHS every changed .

It became normal. I started to believe these names. If somebody called out, Tree, I would look around. In the barn scene, Kunta was getting ready to escape, and Fiddler was helping him after he was singing that lullaby. Kunta had asked Fiddler his name, his real name, and I have to admit, that moment was really emotional. Fiddler seemed to come to an understanding of how unbreaking Kunta was. I feel Kunta wasn’t built for a slave, his roots, his mindset, and his resilience wouldn’t allow it. This leads to him escaping, or trying to escape, many times. The first time he was bought by Samson, and the other times, he was caught by dogs. A very disappointing moment for me, because my nerves had built up while he was running, so when he was caught, I was extremely disappointed. It seemed to me, when he was escaping the second time, he was doing it not only for himself, but to Fiddler, and his family. Maybe even Jinna. At the end, where he was losing contact with his parents, was absolutely heartbreaking to me, because he is giving up. He was giving into his new identity, losing his

We human beings are all works of art. Every experience that we have is a new stroke of paint to our canvas. The things that influence us do the same. I am not a completed work of art, but I can show my progress of what makes me. I am influenced by the media, my teachers, and the neighborhoods I lived in. Now here is the showing of my work.

Roy was invited to a party because he was symphony pianist. Roy attended a ceremony and was returning from the bathroom. He stopped by the giant cannon and began to light a cigar. Suddenly he heard a pop. So loud, so strong. He heard everything as he collapsed, and instantly after the world went quiet. Time felt lost and Roy felt abandoned.

I will want to know about my personal genetics if I have some potential diseases for an early prevention to reduce any risk of developing of them. In my father side, my grandmother, two uncles and two cousins had died of stomach cancer. Since I was a child I suffered digestive disorder, for that, I have the fear to develop this kind of cancer. Knowing more about my personal genetic analysis allow me to take preventive measures to improve my well-being such as, what kind of medicaments or diet I can make.

She’s worried that when they do discover a fault in her genes, she’ll bring down the company, and all her parents’ hard work, with her.

The lives I would touch for my legacy would be my family and friends because those are the people that care about me and what I do. That they would help me out with anything I need. My major accomplishment would be a pro soccer player and go to Rutgers College. The other accomplishment in my life would be to get very good grades in school to get a good education.

I am a first generation child to have been born in my family, the first generation who is about to graduate high school and the first generation to go to a college and succeed in life.

Since I can remember I have had a fascination in the biological field. From a young age, I have wanted pursue a career in the medical field because I have always have felt the need to try help everyone in my community. I have taken multiple science classes in the past, been part of multiple medical clubs, some part of the school, and another outside of school. The course that I took, and enjoyed the most out of all the courses that I have taken was during my junior year of my high school. That course was Anatomy, the study of the human body.The reason why I enjoyed taking this course was because it was the first time that I was exposed to the biological field. During this course, I was given the opportunity to dissect a cat.This was the greatest

My dad says “what’s on the table is what you eat or you don’t eat at all” if we didn’t want what was on the table then we would either have to make our own food or don’t eat at all. My dad thought that if we tried something new we might like it, if we didn’t like it and we tried it my mom or dad would make us something else as long as we tried something new, but if we didn’t try it they would tell us we would have to make our own food or we don’t get to eat at all my grandma and grandpa also say it too.

First, I had an interest in genetics and wanted to be a genetic engineer and/or a genetic counsellor. I shadowed a genetic researcher and then knew for sure that I did not want to be a researcher and it made me think of options other than genetics. My mother also told me of a friend whose husband does genetic counseling and said not to do that because it was very sad and had poor effects on their lives. Next, I considered biomedical engineering. I did not know very well what it was about but I thought I would like it and knew it was similar to genetics, as in it worked with the human body. I looked into it a little more and read that it was basically a version of chemical engineering that had less jobs options, so I switched to chemical engineering.
