Personal Narrative: If You Really Knew Me

One short-term goal that I have is to graduate from high school. I will need to do all of my work and do my best in all of my classes to accomplish that goal.

It is our goal to help you become an autonomous adult, who will be ready to go into your mission field of work.

Create SMART Goals: To achieve a goal, one must set the goal in a way it is achievable to the individual. When the goal is too vague or open, it is difficult to complete. SMART goal setting creates a path that one can achieve.

So many people argue that you need to be realistic when you’re setting your goals. With dedication, persistence, and time, you can accomplish any goal you put your mind to doing so. Anything you decide you will be able to accomplish the biggest or the small goals you set. No matter how big of one you will be able to complete the goal. I believe that with dedication, persistence, and time, people can accomplish any goal that they put their mind into doing.

Goal #2. I will also work to eat a healthy diet contributing to my overall health decreasing my risk of chronic illnesses having a debilitating affect on me.

Throughout all young adults’ lives, they are told by all adults that they need to set goals for ourselves to thrive to accomplish. I’ve lived my life looking up to the adults around me, so I have made a list for myself of the goals that I strive to accomplish in fear that the adults who pushed me will be disappointed if I do not succeed. Some goals are short term while others will take a considerable quantity of time and vigorous amounts of effort to accomplish. My top ten list is an agenda of the different elements I would like to accomplish within my life.

My goals would include finishing my college career at either Texas State or UTSA with a bachelors degree within five years. During that time another goal that I have set is to figure out something I would like to do to provide myself with a decent income that isn't too stressful. I plan on spending about an hour of my free time everyday to find that job I'm looking for. This would include researching the job titles and looking in my area to see if thats a growing business or is it going to be phased out one day. It will also include browsing around different states to see if they have more options while also opening my horizons to new job choices. My goal is just that which doesn't seem too hard to accomplish within the next few years. I picture

“Not for the first time, an argument had broken out over breakfast at number four Privet Drive. Mr. Vernon Dursley had been woken in the early hours of the morning by a loud, hooting noise from his nephew Harry’s room.” — these are the words that framed my childhood. Unlike other children, who were raised to spend time playing outside, I was raised alongside a young British wizard with a scar on his forehead and a penchant for finding trouble. Of course, the adventures of Harry Potter are not actually fact; however, to a boy gleefully resting on his mother’s lap their authenticity was never in question. I can still remember so many things about the way that she would read to me on those lazy Sunday afternoons. Entranced by her soft voice rising and falling as each syllable passed over her lips, I sat and dreamed for endless hours.

What do I feel you should know about me? I think as myself as a well-rounded student all together. I think you should know that I enjoy English much better than math, and a large percent of my other classes. Sometimes, it takes me a moment or two to understand a new lesson. At other times, I catch on fast. It just depends on if I can wrap my head around the concept we are learning. When it comes to writing papers I tend to get writer’s block quite often; however, when I think of something to write, I try to stick with it and add more and more to that subject. Occasionally I procrastinate homework (don’t we all), but I try to stay on top of things. I do make sure to get all of my homework in on time.

There is a lot to learn about me, but here are just a view things. First, I live at home with both of my parents and I have two younger sisters. I also have a three year old dog named Ella. She is a pointer beagle mix. Most of my time I spend outside of school and on weekends dancing. I am on a competitive dance team at Vibe Dance Center. One of my other hobbies is playing the piano. This year will be tenth year playing the piano. My parents love to travel so I have been to the majority of the states in the US. I have also been to Mexico and Canada. This year for spring break we are going to Costa Rica. When we are there we will spend have of it in the jungle and the other have in the mountains. That is all there is to know about

Some people are very ahead with their knowledge, as in, they know what to do already; they know what their future will hold for them if they follow a certain type of path. But... What happens if there’s a certain person who isn’t as ahead as she’s supposed to be even though she wants to be recognized? Well, that certain person is me, Keishlayari Melendez. My one adjective that would describe me the most is being introverted. I got used to staying at home and be quiet most of the time. I like the way I am right now than how I was before.

The second goal I have set for myself is going to college. I have set these goals for myself, so I can have a career and retire from my career that I chose.

A: My short term goal is to graduate high school in the top ten percent of my class. Then hopefully by

     I understand that in order to achieve my goal, I will have to make many sacrifices such as continuing to balance a full time job with family responsibilities and numerous difficult classes. I will work hard and plan to put a lot of effort into my classes to assure success in each of them.
