Personal Narrative: My Legacy

I would like to be able to bring my parents and grandparents to some of these beautiful places that our world has to offer. I will have to have a pretty good paying job because all these things that I would like to accomplish cost quite a bit of money. From Mexico to Rome, I want to see it all. If I could travel to all the seven wonders the world then that would complete my three accomplishments.

Being Native American it is always your goal to graduate high school first, and to go to college. I would love to be someone to bring the knowledge back to my community. Native Americans are known for having the highest dropout rate and the lowest college graduation rate. I could help the Lumbee Tribe change their statistics of Lumbee Indians attending a four-year university. Overall, make high education changes who we are as people. Having the younger generation in my community see me make something out of myself could create a role model to them and give them the tools in order for them to achieve their goals also. Out of all my family I will be the first to go to college. Knowing that I will is a big achievement to me and I will do anything

I want to be a great example in my family of how an education can enhance your life. College will not only get you a degree but an entire future. College will help you earn a job and make connections with professors that can impact your life. An education will always create new opportunities that you would never have. I want to impact my community by being an example and mentoring those around

To leave a great legacy, I will definitely have influenced others. My family and friends will be pleased with my hard work by the end of the year. I want my fellow peers and classmates to look up to me. Being recognized as an individual who is determined, studious, and out-going is important. Furthermore, being known for my enthusiastic personality and my creativeness is a desire of mine. Hopefully, trying my best and staying persistent will get me that result.

A legacy is what someone is remembered by. It is how people are looked back on. Desks and chairs and notebooks and binders can’t look back at me and remember me, only people can remember. That means the impact that I make on the people is what matters most. If I could choose, I would want people to look back at me and say, “She was great. She always had a good attitude and was always working her best.” I want to make an impact on people by giving them the mindset that they should always have fun while they’re working. I would like if every time someone looked back at me they would be more and more eager to achieve their goals. My biggest goal for this year that I work my hardest to receive straight A’s, and have so much fun while doing it.

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

Imagine you’re sitting in a cubicle just typing away, taking phone calls all day. Office, work 8 hours a day, not really that fun and won’t get you remembered for anything. Now picture yourself standing in front of the board of NASA, presenting an idea to them on a mission to Jupiter. You could be labeled as “The Man Who Thought to go to Jupiter.” Which one do you want to be remembered for? Most people would want to be remembered for something outstanding, like being a good father to my kids, setting a good example to my children so they can pass traits down to their kids.

Think of what you would think of on your final day of life. Sitting in your hospital bed,

Some things I would like to accomplish in life would be, earn an Advanced International Diploma, I also want to go to East Tennessee State University, and Become a doctor. Those would be major accomplishments for me! I will make great efforts to pursue them.

It was a warm sunny day in May, and it was almost the end of the school year. Bus 1995 was full of annoying and yelling kids.

Something I want to be remembered for in this life is being the type of person who no matter what is always positive in every aspect in life. In this life we are going to have troubles rather it be losing a loved one, family issues and many others that exist. We have to go on with life because we can't just be negative all the time and depressed. I am the person where if I see people down, sad and giving up makes me feel like I did not do my job at all. Even if times are hard and you are ready to give up it should give you the right to just quit. You have to get up even harder to prove them and yourself wrong.

As I approach graduation I have been able to reflect upon the people in my life that have supported and influenced me over the past four years. The people who have been most influential in these past four years are my dad, my boss, and my eighth grade math teacher. My dad taught me to be hard working, my boss taught me to be adaptable, and my eighth grade math teacher taught me how to be organized. Although my dad has taught me to be hardworking these past four years I have learned a lot for myself.

For advisory I chose my signature project because I spread aware about a problem that no one finds a problem but it is a problem. I relate this to the Student Wide Leaner Outcomes because with my spread of awareness I am able to Commit time and energy to improve the school community, state, and nation. I overcame the obstacles of completion of this assignment by collaborating with my group members with my ideas as well as theirs to then create an event to get students on campus to help support our project. If I were to redo this assignment, I would start discussion earlier to get better

I would be honored if my family and friends would think of me as that person on whom they could always rely and count. I would really love to be remembered as the one who was there to support, help, advise, cry and smile. It is not about being Mother Teresa, but being there for those who matter to you, to enjoy and show them the beauty of friendship.

I couldn’t imagine life without education. . I would have positively influenced my students in helping them to succeed and reach for the sky. After all, our children are our future and it is so important that they learn correctly and with great ambition to further their education. There are so many teachers in this great country and there is always room for new teachers and definitely experience in different areas because curriculum changes over time. Technology has become such an important aspect of education today: Twenty years ago, computers were almost non-existent in schools and “believe it or not”, students had to use libraries and type assignments on typewriters as needed. This may sound absolutely absurd to our children but imagine how absurd it will sound to children twenty or more years from now. It sounds crazy but so true. My colleagues and students will remember me by my personality and eagerness to always learn and be the best teacher ever! I want teachers all of ages and from all walks of life to trust me and help me in making a difference in every student’s
