Personal Narrative: Other Than Losing Creditss To A College Student

When I was younger I failed myself and my family when I got held back a grade because I was not showing any progress in any of my subjects. I lost all of my friends, they began to talk bad about me because they thought I was not as Intelligent as they were. This effected me emotionally, I begged my parents not to hold me back a grade and to let me stay with my friends but my parents being tough said no, because school isn't about being close with friends, its about learning and making something of yourself. I learned a very important lesson the day I got held back a grade and that is to never give up and to strive to be the best in anything I do. I also learned that friends come and go, and that I can make more friends. I started studying every

The journey that has brought me to this class has been dependent on my academic drive. I am currently a dual enrollment student and this class is one of many steps along the path to receiving an AA degree. I am taking advantage of the opportunities that dual enrollment offers and furthering my understanding of literature with this course.

Being pulled out of school early without being told why, I was quiet confused. The first question I asked my mom: what’s wrong, who’s hurt? Since my stepdad and her never pulled my sister and I out of school early, I was very concerned. I kept asking what’s going on until I got an answer from my stepdad; he told us there was an attack going on in the city, a plane crashed into one of the twin towers. While we were driving home the other plane hit. My stepdad being a firefighter and living about an hour and a half train ride from the city I was terrified he would be called to help his friends, family and strangers. He told us shortly after getting home he might be going to help. I was confused to why he would leave us when we were

I started to work as a waitress at very young age. I stopped receiving education because my grades at school were not good and studying seemed to be boring. Working in my twenties appeared to be more adventurous and full of promises. As the time passed by, my routine at work turned out to be a nuisance. I was feeling empty inside without knowing the reason. As my level of expertise in the catering business was growing, the idea of starting up a restaurant on my own was beginning to take shape. I believed to know how to handle a business but I was missing all the technicalities. Getting back to school was a good alternative though I did not feel ready.

Throughout High School I thought I was proficient in reading and writing in my English classes, from freshman year to senior year English classes were easy and felt I could transition my confidence to community college after graduation until I took the English assessment exam and failed in the spring of 2012. Failing my entrance exam was devastating and I refused to accept my results, I waited two academic year before I can appeal to retest my English entrance exam and after weeks of waiting I was approved to retest. After I retest the results were the same, I was placed in remedial English not only was I devastated again but I personally felt worthless. I did not know what was wrong with my reading and writing but I had no choice to enroll

The general culture of this company is very, very lax. At least, that’s what I got. I’m sure higher up is more professional. They attire that Anna wore made me feel like I could wear anything and get away with it. I started out very professional and turned into just look nice (ish). Its collaborative within departments, but there some communication problems. Apparently someone took Kailin and Anna’s ideas a couple of times. I’m not sure about that but I smile and nod. Really that’s how I get by smile and nod.

After recently graduating from Fullerton College with two associate degrees in psychology, I could have not accomplished this goal all by myself without the proper guidance that I received from EOPS and FYSI at the time. These programs were established to support former foster youth at Fullerton College in their education as long as they met all the conditions for each semester. As a result, this was valuable for me during my time as a community college student, allowing me to guarantee that I would finish all my requirements on time to transfer to a good university, and becoming more involved with the campus each semester. That being said, this is one of the main reasons as to why I am applying to your program, so I could receive the support

I am a sophomore at Hamilton Southeastern High school, and currently plan to graduate in 2018. My GPA as of this moment is a 3.33, and I am an A, B honor roll student. Inside school I am a part of the Harry Potter Club, and play quidditch which is a sport having to do with Harry Potter. My aim in high school is to graduate with academic honors. Last school year I was not as involved with the school rather, I got involved with outside of school things. In 8th grade I was a part of the Junior high national honors society.

While, my family is fully able to pay for my college, I also have two sisters whose college tuition will need to be paid for in the next several years and I prefer smaller institutions, which tend to be more expensive. I believe I will be provided with a more in-depth and personally tailored education at a smaller university. My family and I have also come a long way in the past 17 years. My mother married into an abusive relationship when she became pregnant with my older sister then divorced in 2005; unknowing leaving my sisters and I to deal with parental abuse. During her time away from us, she accepted herself and her sexual orientation despite social constructs in our home state of Alabama. Through many custody battles, which lasted

Let me tell you about two students. Student A attends Brooklyn Technical High School. He was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, and loves to play sports such as basketball and football. He’s part owner of a clothing brand, and has a passion for video games and computer software; having hopes that one day he will own a software company. Student B has been working since the age of fifteen; at one point having to work two jobs in the same day. He’s been surrounded by gang violence most of his life, and the biggest fear he has is failure. To both my detriment and benefit, I am student A and student B.                                                                                        For most of my life, I’ve been caught in between

In the city of Davenport, there were two brothers who lived together. Their parents had passed away seven months ago in a fatal car accident. It was just the two of them, and they needed each other to survive. Jason, the younger brother, was 18 and was in his senior year of highschool. Tyler, the older brother, was 20 and was a college dropout who had become another statistic. Their future wasn’t looking very bright, but together they had to chance to succeed.

So, here’s the deal: I’m an unemployed college drop-out. I could probably go back to school and finish up, considering I decided to quit going just a few months ago, but I don’t want to. Why? Because I don’t like college. Why? Because I don’t like spending ridiculous amounts of money on courses that I’m not interested in and textbooks that I don’t even read. Plus, college is a scam if I’ve ever heard of one…

It was the end of 7th grade year, and by that time I knew I failed classes, it was going to be the exact thing as last year. Except, this year my mom did not allow me to go to summer school, she told me that if I wasn’t going to at least try to my fullest potential, she wasn’t either. Being that I failed a class without going to summer school, I was kicked out of the Academy and sent to my base school. I wasn’t sad because at that point I just did not care.
