Personal Narrative: My First Photographs

My “1 student with a score of 0” received a one because he did not pay attention during the lesson. I might have been able to help if I had stood next to him and kept him on task. I believe he knows the information because he said things during the experiment that leads me to believe he can do better. His diagram actually reflects our experiment not our lesson and that in itself is interesting. My “1 student with a score of 1” was one that asked questions. I tried to provide different examples so make it easier but in hindsight I should have SHOWN an example by providing a visual. (I will be doing this in class tomorrow)

Everyone has their first memory when they have to enter the adult world, mine just happened to be my junior year of high school. This year was just a little glimpse of what was going to be the rest of my life. Getting my first job was bitter sweet. I had to learn how to manage my time between school, sports, and now a job. After my first week of school I had to start my new job.

I’m Kyla Painter. Today I am doing an essay all about me and stuff I do. For example, my family, the schools I have attended, my education, interests, special talents, my opinions about the world today,and a few more things. There is a lot to know about me. Keep reading to see.

Getting young students interested in science early has contributed to my growing interest in working directly with underserved communities. Neuroscience Research: Project where I quantified and correlated the expression of certain enzymes with Parkinson’s disease utilizing Lymnaea stagnalis as an animal model. Employed several experimental techniques such as Western blotting and confocal imaging. Taught me an immense amount of biology from a basic science viewpoint. Gained a greater appreciation towards the complexity of disease and illness.

When we were told to pick a partner for the “Photo Partner Project” I felt like I was running around like a chicken without a head trying to find a partner, then the boy standing next to me asked if I wanted to be his partner for the project. I had never talked to, or even seen, this boy before, but I decided it was the perfect chance to get to know someone new. Shortly after my partner was picked for the project, I met my photo project partner, Dale Senart, in order to get to know him so we could complete the project. The vibe I got from Dale is that he is super into science, as his major is engineering physics, however, he has a strong interest in music, as he plays the trumpet and enjoys listening to many different types of music.

As teenager, many people say their adolescence is one of the most important phases in anyone’s life. As a teenager, you get to experience many great events like going to high school football games, dating your first boyfriend or girlfriend, getting your driver license, and graduating from high school. As I look back, I believe that getting my first job was the most important event in my adolescence. I was very enthusiastic about getting my first job. I enjoyed that fact that I will be able to earn my own money and not having to ask my mother for any earn. Surprising, there was only one obstacle that was holding me back and that was the fact that I was a

My first source is, “bmj.com.” It is an article, about a surrogate mother who lost her baby and how the parents came in contact with her. It also explains how she went to court because of losing the baby. My second source is People Magazine. The magazine tells a story of a mother who was a surrogate for her daughter's child. The mother was very supportive of the idea of a surrogate mother Sherri Dickson, told People Magazine, “‘I decided that if they needed somebody to carry their child, I would volunteer’” (qtd in Coder

After doing my Exploration of Aesthetics Paper last week, I decide to take it a step further. In my exploring the night sounds, it was hard to focus because of the loud sounds of the cicadas. I really didn’t know much about the insects except they come every 17 years and are really loud and everyone I know didn’t like them, so I didn’t because I don’t like bugs. However, a friend of mine posted a video and I watched it on cicadas. It changed my whole view on how I look at the insects at this point. They are beautiful creature and tell a story just like humans. We all have purpose in life and so does the cicadas. They live underground for 17 years. On a warm night they emerge and surface the land. They connect with each other, just like little children wanting to play with their friends after not seeing them for a long time. Then they transform to begin their final life on earth. The process is like giving birth as a human or letting out the lost soul and finding god for the first time. They become adults and search for their mates when shell hardens. Synchronized choir, we all call noise, is their mating call. They are finding love for the first time. They come in all colors, it’s sad watching the video

I always told myself I wasn't going to be like them. They were telling me one thing, but I wanted something completely different. At least that's what my 12 year old, indecisive brain thought. I was young, and of course I didn't want to do what people said. I changed my mind every three days, but I was adamant, I wasn't going to listen to them.

My greatest skill is drawing. I’ve developed this skill by drawing when I have time and look some drawings from the internet to get inspired. I’ve demonstrated this skill by showing it to my family or posting it on the internet. I’ve always liked drawing since I was a kid because I always imagine things and I want to remember it. I used to draw Spongebob’s snail, Gary, a lot because I’ve seen a tutorial on how to draw Gary. And it inspired me, so I did it, and the outcome didn’t turn what I expect it to be. So, I tried it over and over again until I perfected it. Then, I tried drawing something else like cartoon characters, a person, etc. Until I get a hang of it, but I can’t do it without an image to copy from. As the time goes by, I am now

I met Josh on my first day of high school. I walked into my Intro to Graphic Design class and noticed a boy smiling at a nearby table. I thought he looked cute, so I sat with him. I don’t remember much more of that day, but I do remember him leaving an impression on me. Josh and I stayed friends for about a year and, even though we didn’t date, he seemed different from the other guys I had known. Josh had always been a great friend to those around him and never got caught up in the drama around him. We finally started the following summer and the rest was history!

My name paints a picture worth more than one hundred words. In Greek, it means god-given, but here in the United States it is worthless. It means hard work. It means high quality. It stands for sensitivity. It is like the number 4, blocky, bold, and beaming. With a sweet taste of victory with the payoff of hard work. Teddy looks like an electrifying, hair-raising roller-coaster with sensational loop-the-loops. It smells like sweat hitting the hard, musty basketball court, creating a sense of hope to work better than the man standing next to me. Although, maybe a different name could work. One lengthy that provides a sense of lofty goals. Malachi should do, as it also paints a picture worth even more than that of Teddy. Finally, I found the

The first day of science was highly enjoyable, I was so excited that we finally get to do some real science projects. In elementary school, we had not worked on science very much. One of my favorite projects that we have done so far was the cup activity where there was a rubber band and eight strings were tied to the rubber band. We each took one piece of the string and we were instructed to work together to try and transfer the rubber band onto the cups, to make a tower. That activity was highly amusing because it taught us how to work together. When Mrs. Cotter realized that we could not work together very well, she gave us another activity to do. She assigned us partners and she gave each pair of partners one piece of string. The pairs of partners were assigned to tie the string around themselves once, then she told us to untie it without letting go of each other's hand. That project was

Even through college, I have had several positive and negative experiences with science. Last semester in Physical Science for Educators, I learned all the content needed, but I also learned how to make lessons fun and hands on for students. It is one thing to lecture a lesson, but to have hands on approaches for each concept helps me learn and retain the information that much better.
