Personal Narrative: My Experience With The AVLIC Board

Since I am unable to make judicial board tonight I would like to state my appeal. In terms of “bumping” the kid who threw the punch I do plead guilty to that charge. However, leading up to this incident I was trying to play peacemaker, as Tim and the others trying to keep this kid out were unable to control the situation appropriately due to this kids hostile mentality. Leading up to this event I had been watching the door all night and just minutes before I had broken up a potential fight between a non Sigma Chi and two other non Sigma Chis who were upset about not being able to enter the party. After I peacefully got those kids to leave I went back up to the steps and calmly told the others who were loitering around the party

Mercy Medical Center is where it all started. On August 4th, 2004, 6:47 p.m. I was born. My name all started as a simple idea 4 years before I was even born. It originated from an American singer-songwriter Shannon Hoon, the lead vocalist of Blind Melon. Eventually, Shannon had a daughter, and named her Nico Blue. My mom liked the name and decided she would name her first child that. Though my first name isn’t actually Nico, it’s Nicolynn. She added her middle name to the first half, leaving me with no middle name.

I knew that when I thought of Matthew as a potential student I could teach, I knew he had been a long-time athlete and how much he enjoyed playing sports he loved. Along with that, there is a large amount of numbers into sporting events, such as: batting averages in baseball, field goal percentages in basketball, competition percentages in football. All of these in which have different formulas to figure out the final product in each case. Whenever thing about Matthew for being a possible candidate, I called him and just asked him about his former math courses and how he last took Algebra 2 his fall semester of high school his junior year. I proceeded to ask him how that class went for him, with him responding as “very difficult for me.” That was when I knew he was going to be my so called “guinea pig” for my SMED 310 Clinical Interview.

In my Middle School years, I went to E.L. Wright Middle school, that year, I have more responsibilities and more class and work to do. In my 7th and 8th grade year, I accomplished the A/B Honor Roll for all school year. In those years at high school ever since the speech, I tend myself to care about my grade and making the highest grade. In 7th grade I apply to the AVID Program with Mr. Quitter, he changes my work ethic. He introduced me to Cornell Notes, writing on the right side of the paper. He introduced me to college, and at that time, I now know that college was very expensive. Even though he’s short but he did a lot to the avid program a success. After he left in my 8th year, miss. Liandra Davis took over, but she is strict today. Having

National Honors Society is an amazing opportunity to be chosen for. By being accepted, it shows that the hard work that I have done in the classroom, and in the community have done well for not only the community but for myself as a person. Since I have started High-school, I have done many volunteer hours at my church. I have done many things such as help lead game-time for the little ones during a learning program called Awana. Awana is a program done by some churches to help raise children to love and serve God. I also help most Sundays in the sound room at church. I help to run the sound and the computer that displays the songs that we are doing that particular Sunday. I enjoy doing these things because seeing the children’s faces, enjoying

Why? Well, I personally have a heart condition. I was born with left Valve Stenosis witch means my heart has to work harder to pump blood though the valve and my body can suffer with less oxogen. With having this condition I do have chest pains, more then anyone has. The wild part is I can not take birth control because there is a lot of effects within the heart. I’ve had an inhaler many times to help with my breathing and multiple open heart surgeries. With my condition there are many things in this world I am not able to do, such as I have to be a certain weight. As for me I can’t weaigh over 120 pounds, I can’t go on roller costers, I can’t have too much salt, and I’m very limited on working out and I can’t skip meals and being stress is not great for my heart.

My second clinic rotation is internal medicine and I’ve had many encounters, both with patients and colleagues, which have made me pause and reflect. One of those encounters, in particular, will still be on my mind long after I finish typing this reflective journal. The patient at the center of it all is a lady I’ll refer to from here on as “Mrs. Flowers.” Mrs. Flowers is an 81 year old female with dementia and diabetes. She arrived on our unit with a diabetic foot infection that had progressed from a simple toe ulcer to wet gangrene. Over the last 2-3 months, gangrenous changes encompassed the distal half of her left foot. During pre-rounds, our medical team unanimously agreed that we would contact surgery for a consult. At time, it was obvious

June 5 1944 I wake up on the HMS Ramillies hearing a barrage of our Naval Artillery being shot. I quickly rush to the deck to see a squadron of BF 109 airplanes diving in on the deck. In the heat of the moment I quickly hop on the AA Gun, and lay down a onslaught of shots that take out 2 of the 12 BF’s. They quickly take evasive maneuvers, and reset their formation. So, tunnel-visioned by my thought to be victory I wasn’t ready for the next attack. I turn around to see a MG C/30 round barreling towards me. I started racing away from the shot before it hit the AA Gun. I had just remembered I left the AA ammo right near where the round impacted. The explosion blew out most of the deck, and left me deafened and motionless. In the confusion a squad

The clinic that I am doing my clinical rotation is a small family medical office with one physician assistant and one doctor. It is located in Collier County Naples, Florida. Naples is considered as one of the richest city in Florida with a diverse ethnic group like Caucasian, African America, Asian, Latinos, Haitian, and much more. They see any patients start from 6 years old. Most of the patients who come to the clinic don’t have a medical insurance. They are self-paid. My preceptor is a professor of physician assistant at Nova University in Florida over 20 years.

My experience in FBLA has been a continuing, life changing journey. I joined FBLA in 7th grade, with no leadership experience. However, I took a bold step and ran for my local middle level chapter’s Treasurer and won. From there, I have served a leadership position, both locally and state, every year. Just because I served these positions, does not mean I am qualified to hold a position on a National Council. It is what I have done, and what I experienced that has helped me grow not only a member, but as a person. Throughout the last 5 years, I have been through many challenges in FBLA. I have had defining accomplishments, like planning and hosting a regional summit with over 100 people attending. And I have had failures that has taught me

Well, this has been another busy week. I had the interview with Techquality Health 2.0 diversity in health technology mentorship program about what they could do to help me with my project. It turns out they are more interested in helping with research in healthcare technology that the scholar is developing, more on a PhD level. Anyway, I completed my eight-week course with Future Learn over two weeks because I had most of the work already done. I would not say it was a waste of time. It helped me to rethink my project from the beginning, and I learned things I had not known about the research process such as keeping a journal of my research process and making sure my project is achievable and the potential it has to contribute

I would like to state that I have had a positive experience with Kline & Spector. I was first introduced to Braden Lepisto during a deposition hearing in June of 2013. He had a quiet disposition and soft tone. Over time I have gained much respect for Braden during the course of the litigation. He and his assistant Angela Fittizzo worked diligently on my case leaving no stone unturned. When he was not available, Angela ( legal assistant) responded to my request for updates and new issues with the case as they came up. I was never left without answers to my issues or concerns. At no time was I made to feel like a client a potential paycheck, but felt like everything I had to say mattered. We were a team on the same page. Everything

A time that I can recall where someone was displaying abnormal behavior was when I went to an involuntary commitment hearing for my internship. Every Thursday last semester I was asked to represent my work based learning site at the IVC hearings and report back to the site what happened at these hearings. I absolutely loved going to these hearings, it really gave me some insight into these people’s personal lives and their reasons why they were committed. One lady in particular stands out to me, without giving any real info about this person, I’ll tell a little bit about her thoughts and behaviors. The lady thought that the whole city was out for her sweet blood and everyone wanted to bite her like a vampire. She thought that her mother was Marilyn Monroe and her father was Barack Obama. She also thought that she had two children, one by Michael Jordan and the other by Kobe Bryant. These beliefs were real in her mind, but to everyone else, it was sad because we knew it was just delusions from her mental illness and a result of her not taking her medications.

I’ve een at RVEC for a month know, and the experience here is great some people are nice, and some are just not nice but since my first month here I’ve noticed the work is worth hard working cause when I was in middle school we mostly had paper work. But know most of our work is on computer.

Why choose ECC? It’s a simple question. That being said, the journey to ECC is a whole different story. The best way to tell this story is by being honest about why I never wanted to come here, the choice I originally made, and how that all ended myself at Elgin Community College. With all that in mind, Let’s start from the beginning.
