Personal Narrative: My Ability To Make Up Work

My first example of one of my peices of work is my Garage Sale flyer. I choes this as one of my examples because it demonstates my understandings of our unit all about creating flyers,business cards etc… The strongest aspects of this peice of work is the way I have all the information needed in an organized way. It does not look super cluttered. I think i could always work on something with any peice of work i do. With this peice i think i could work on my spelling and puncuation. Some of the skills i use to create this peice were; Change the backround, Bordes and accents, Text and

When it comes to writing I have a mental breakdown, I get nervous, overthink, and emotionally stressed. These three words describe me as a writer. In high school I would have a difficult time starting papers, often times my weaknesses was grammar and sentences fragments. How I feel about writing is how I feel when a love one dies. It's like as if I'm at a funeral and my paper is the one being funeralized. I think the reason why I am how I am about writing is because my college English teacher in high school was so harsh on my papers, and ever since then I've been traumatize to write papers.

I started to write when I was 10 years old. It was under the recommendation of my therapist who believed that it would help me release negative emotions, and it did. Since then I have loved to write stories, journals, poems, anything that could set my imagination free. However as a writer I’ve always felt unsuccessful I have always felt that the pieces I write are never completed. Even more that as a writer I was not good enough and I shouldn’t show my writings to anyone that I shouldn't even bother to continue as a writer. These reason both motivate me and make me not want to continue but I choose to let it motivate me because I

Throughout my high school career, I have been exposed to many different elements of writing and, although some teachers have emphasized certain areas more than others, I feel I have come a long way as a writer. Despite this I also know I have much further to go. This fact became very clear to me as I was taking my previous course of English, Accelerated English Three. Within this course I was introduced to the MLA method of citation, I experienced disappointment due to receiving a lower grade than I had desired, and I discovered difficulties such as my impatient tendencies to look over errors and mistakes during the editing processes.

Children running around, screaming, smiling. Just a normal day as a water park lifeguard. I take a friends spot for their break, as i often did. He was the reason I got hired in the first place. $10 an hour to pace back and forth he told me. My 16 year old self couldn’t ask for more. That was 3 months ago and I had no excitement over the job left. I find myself daydreaming staring at the bottom of the pool as I pace back and forth. I hear a splash from the area to the left of me and see a young girl struggling to keep herself up. I kick my shoes off the second I see her and dive to assist her. I get to her while she’s still struggling, I pull her onto my tube and begin my spiel. You are required to see the person and react in 10 seconds, I took 6. I smile happy to do well and keep the young girl safe. As I’m filling out the paperwork, as we did with all rescues, my managers call me over. They say I did well on the time requirement side, but I was written up. Kicking my shoes off was wasting time in a situation where every second counts. I started of thinking I didn't deserve the write up, since I had saved the young girl as

I would be an outstanding student in Spelman College's faculty classes because I am hard worker. My work has always came first even when I had experienced a big transition in my life I didn't allow that to stop me from doing my work. My work was always a outlet for me to express myself and to show my teachers how I really think. For instance, in my English Composition Class we read a poem called "I Want A Wife by Judy Brady" then we read a book named "Fences by August Wilson", and one day we were in class discussing the poem in the book and it shocked my teacher when I made the connection between the two. I thought my teacher made us read "I want a wife" because in the book "Fences" the main character named Troy expected everything in that

This week in field was interesting as I experienced a situation I am certain will re-appear after entering the work field. On Monday my field supervisor and I received a phone call from a mother who had been physically abused by her boyfriend. The mother was emotional and admitted to having scares and bruises. Before the client was able to explain the situation, my supervisor informed the client I would be listening to the conversation; receiving consent from the client before allowing me to sit in on the conversation. After receiving consent, my supervisor went on to ask questions in regards about the mother’s safety and her children’s. The questions she asked were, “Is the boyfriend still in the home?” “Were the children around when the abuse

    On Sunday, March 12th of 2017, I had my first interview with Dr. Isaac Siew, an Emergency doctor, who works in Amarillo, Texas at Baptist Saint Anthony’s Hospital. Mr. Siew and I discussed many of the major topics of Emergency medicine such as, the risks of being an Emergency Doctor, the pros of being an ER doctor, what skills one should have prior to being an Emergency Doctor, and what one does in Emergency Medicine. With each question I gained more and more information on the career that I love, and saw a new point of view on Emergency Medicine.

My ability as a writer and a reader has grown stronger each moment, from the beginning of the year until now. I have always struggled to write down my thoughts on a paper, it is easier for me just to say them out loud. Making the portfolio was something I was looking forward to. Making a timeline of how much my skills as a writer and a reader has improved throughout the course it shows my progression I have made. These two essays are the ones that showed how much I have improved over the past couple of months. The first essay that you will see in my portfolio shows how much I lack on providing critical information and how unclear the essay is. The second essay demonstrates how much I have grown from the first essay, it demonstrates my ability as a writer and a reader. Even

Thank you for reading my work - I'm glad you enjoy it and might find it useful.

As both of you probably already know I have been a VERY sick man since February of this year and into the hospital 8 times for treatment. During this time my recovery was looking optimistic and I thought that I could work again. With the spirit of trying I did no more than 5 hours work before having to be shipped off to the hospital in an ambulance again. During this time my thought process was clear, turns out it was skewed and I am still unable to work. That being said it has more been a horrifying process to come to terms with being medically disabled and unable to work at 20 years old. During these months of suffering I realize I have caused this company mass suffering with me having to divert tons of my shifts due to being unable to work them.

I worked by myself for the most part, and was given tasks by either Tom Kelly or Eric Dykeman. I was given access to everything that Tom would tell me to do, and that includes seeing billing info, and on the bills I would you tell the company how much they owe the Chamber in dues, I also was to see why they left and complaints that they had. With Eric I would be given tasks like making schedules, finding people to contact for meeting, and to organize how the meeting was going to plan out. Almost every day was different, and there was always something to get done or to visit. I traveled with Eric a lot to the town of Braintree where there would be meeting, and I also traveled to see where they are trying to build more infrastructure. I would

As an altogether functional human being, I can deduce that making mistakes come as naturally as breathing air. Therefore, I'm aware that numerous people would utilize this do-over to rectify a life-changing blunder. Often taken for granted, our successes and failures give us an indispensable opportunity to learn from. For the most part, I can say that I’m satisfied with the experience I have gained through my past. Therefore, if there existed a possibility of a do-over to change any point in my life, it would be a rather inconvenient option for me. I'm distinctive because of the choices I've made, setting me apart from the rest. In addition, I've come to learn more from my mistakes than from my successes. My failures remind me not to repeat

Life. Four simple words that makes us. Life, I believe, is when you take a leap of faith or when you get to know who you actually are. Everyone is different in one way or another. They may like something that you may not like, or they might enjoy different ways of entertainment than you. Either way ignoring all of that all of these things make us who we are, it makes us human beings and it makes us. I know for a fact that I'm not like other people, I am very different and different in a wonderful way. In life and throughout you get to know who you actually are, you get to find out what makes you smile and what makes you sad. Thru the past fifteen years of my life I have learned many things about myself but there are still many more chapters in my life, but so far I learned many useful things that are gotten so far to where I am and hopefully to get me where I want.

It’s hard to recall a time where I’ve succeeded in creating a somewhat decent paper, mostly because I never wrote much as a high school student. However, last semester, I did write three essays for my Psychology class which resulted in a good grade and very great feedback. I put a lot of time in coming up with personal examples that would interest my professor. As I expected, my professor loved how personal my essays were and how I met the criteria.
