Personal Narrative: My Strongest Points In Critical Thinking

Over the summer I volunteered with kids helping them learn math and just ensuring they had a fun. We also took them on field trips and played games with them. One day in the summer one of the two teachers called and said they weren't going to come in that day because they were sick. That created the problem of what were we gonna do with 30 children from 3rd to 6th grade and for two hours now that one of the teachers won't be there. My objective was to make sure those kids had a fun day at camp.I ended up coming up with the idea of googling arts and crafts since we already had paint and paper. I ended up finding this really cool elephant we could make; it would take like maybe thirty minutes to make. After that, I found this cool art trick with tape, paper, and paint and that took care of the time and it occupied the kids.

Over my years of school, one big influence on me has always been sports. Ever since a young age, I have always enjoyed playing and watching sports. In my four years in high school, I have fell in love with the sport of lacrosse.

I woke up and took one bite out of my pop tart but that one bite was all I could eat. My legs were shaking, and my heart was pounding. My dad told me, “It is a true honor to even make it this far so go out there and have some fun.” Once I heard this statement, I knew I was ready to go. I arrived at school and boarded the bus. The car ride was an hour and fifteen minutes of hearing the squeaking of the wheel on the bus. My teammates were getting their heads ready for the big game.

Everyone on earth is defined by their core beliefs. It’s what makes us all individuals, what separates us from the others. It wasn’t until I was talking with my friend Sean in 8th grade that I started to realize that one of my core beliefs, something I was taught growing up, may not be my own belief.

For the last six years, I have been given the opportunity to competitively show jump. Competing has taught me a variety of lessons, including how to manage my commitments. Five times a week, I spend three hours at the barn, and throughout the year I spend various weekends competing. Though I wouldn’t rather be doing anything else, it doesn’t leave me with much spare time at the end of the night. Throughout the years, I have learned how to manage my social life, school work, and riding. I quickly realized that even though coming home from the barn at eight p.m and playing rock band until two a.m is way more exciting than doing homework for the rest of the night, that plan of action wasn’t going to do me any good. As a result of my past mistakes

Thanks for the conversations! I really like what we have here. Well, I'm sure you know my writing style at this point and if its at least before 1 AM, don't be afraid to message me if you need to reach out to someone. I definitely would be here for you, if you let me. Try and keep an open mind, I've learned that talking to someone helps gradually. In the moment, eveyrhting they say can seem as if they're playing devils advocate as well as being unsensical and rude. It's up to you to listen and comprehend, just as it is up to you who you talk to. I hope you find the help or a someone that can provide the support you need in those times of need.

I know you don’t really want to talk right now and that you are trying to figure out things for yourself. But, rather than falling into our pattern of internalizing things and waiting to long, I had to make sure I shared a few things I want you to know (based on my assumptions) before I perseverate on it too long.

Reading over your discussion post I have to say I agree with you 100%. Especially when you stated “just because they saw “black” people does not necessarily mean they were from Africa”. My reasoning for agreeing with this statement is because people come in many different shades of colors what made him so sure that they were African? Like I mention in my initial post I believe that his whole theory was based off of assumption. I think if he would’ve had more concrete information it would be more than just a theory.

Lately, people have been telling me that it's not about where I start, but where I finish. I’m choosing to challenge the opinion. I believe that where you finish is because of where you start. Of course, there are people that start and end in a completely different direction. I don’t want to be one of those people! I have a plan for my life, and I know exactly what direction I want it to go in. I don’t want to make obstacles that I’m forced to climb over and jump around to get where my aspirations are. No! I’m going to start out right! I need to start out right! Creighton is the college that I want to begin and end at.

“The strengths for me are adaptability, restoration, individualization, empathy, and relator. Adaptability is easy for me because I don’t like confrontation. I try to just go with whatever as long as it doesn’t threaten my children or myself. Growing up I just learned to avoid bad situations. If an environment is good I deal with it. If a situation is bad I deal with that as well. Restoration is what I’m dealing with now. I need to work on restoration for myself. I do seem to have good advice for others but I lack that in some parts of my life. I need restoration with my finances. So I plan on reading books on financial planning. I have always just wanted to spend money and not save my plan is to educate myself and restore my financial situation.” (Clifton, 2006)

A few weeks ago before first semester ended I needed to do finals so that my grade could go up or retake tests so that we are passing our classes. During the last week of first semester I was really stressed out because I didn’t finish a presentation that needed to be presented that week.

I stood on the mound gripping the yellow softball, my heart was racing, my hands were sweating, and the soft breeze was blowing my ponytail side to side. I was facing my biggest rival from the neighboring school. My teammates were all cheering “you got this” but I knew in the back of my mind I was facing not only their best hitter but my biggest nemesis. She and I have had a long standing rivalry like the relationship of Harry Potter and Voldemort. There were 2 outs and the game was tied in extra innings. The first pitch I threw to her she swung and missed I was getting excited, the second pitch she swung at and missed everyone in our stands was yelling and cheering as well as my whole they were thinking we got this. I could feel my pulse pound

Basically when you present a case you have a tendency to be nerves’ frustrating because of the confrontation, I remember there was a student that was very hard to challenge, but I learn to accept the critics and recognize peers. The interacting in class setting providing me the abilities to develop a critical thinking minds that shaping me as a chaplain through all of life’s situations.

Have you ever had something happen in your life that you didn't fully understand, or you didn't understand at all? I know I have. I've had many. I will be talking about a lot of things I didn't understand then, and I still don’t understand now. Maybe I will understand them as I go along. Some things I'll understand, and some I'll partially understand, and some things will still remain a mystery. There are lot of things that has happened to me that I don’t understand, and maybe I could figure it out throughout this essay. You'll get to know who done this to me, what happened, when it happened, where it happened, why it happened, and how it all went down. All of the things that happened effected me emotionally, financially, and socially.
