Who am I today? I see a man with potential. As I see myself right now I am pretty proud of myself and thankful. I am thankful for the opportunities that have been given to me such as being able to go to a very well known college prep school and I am thankful, and I know it sounds cheesy, for parents that love me and support me and give me a kick in the butt when they see me slacking a little bit. Florida State was the first school that I toured and said WOW! I feel like I am at home. It was a feeling that you can’t really describe. It is one of those things where when your Dad asked you why you liked it and you don’t give a good explanation. Then he gets frustrated at you. In the seventh grade I moved here from Michigan and ever since then I have had a hampering to go back. Well when I went to Florida State it gave me that northern feel, but it was instate. That made my parents happy. Florida State has a homey feel that I don’t feel I could get anywhere else. …show more content…
I have slowly learned to trust other people. I always wanted to be the lone wolf. I hated group projects because there was one guy that would do absolutely nothing. I would always get mad and be short with him/her and I would probably end up mentally exiling him/her from the group. I have learned to deal with these kinds of people by realizing that I cannot control other people. I often will do my work to the best of my ability and leave that person hanging or leave them scrambling at the last second. If they don’t get the grade that everyone else got. Then whose fault is that? Getting rid of my control freak mentality helped me work better with other people. I was no longer worrying about the weak link and worrying about my self. Being a true team player is to do your job to the best of your
Starting high school can be a little scary, especially when you have no guidance from siblings, like me, being the first one from my family to have an education. But that did not stop me from succeeding, I?ve always been confident and determined. I?m an enthusiastic when it comes to trying new things. Who would have thought I was going to be a good athlete plus a book geek, when in my past years I was just a regular kid. I was pretty excited about joining a club that had a connection with high school, that way I didn?t have to start from zero, I always want to be a step ahead. Fortunately, in summer, a high school coach was recruiting freshmen for running either cross country or track, they both involve running, so I considered it like the same sport with different timing. And this is when it all started. Running
I believe you can achieve anything you want in life with hard work, dedication, and passion. There are many experiences I have gone through that have helped shaped who I am today. I may not have control over certain situations, but I have a choice on how it affects me.

There was very many trials and events during this time, so much so I could write a book so this is really only the tip of the tip of the iceburg.
The five items that I chose that best reflects who I am today would be a soccer jersey, earbuds, my key club pen, a book, and a beauty blender. I chose my soccer jersey because it reflects my love for soccer and how teamwork is everything. I also chose earbuds because it reflects my passion for listening to music, I listen to music on a daily basis with anything and everything that I do. I added my Key Club pen to the list because it reflects the dedication that I have for helping others around the community and how I hope to be able to do more in the future. A Book would be the thing that would best reflect who I am today because I love reading. Reading is my most favorite way to pass time, anywhere anytime. A beauty blender would probably
I consider my identity, interests and personality to be as if it was a chain, one which is all connected to my family, and the environment in which I was raised. As a kid, I was always extremely organized with everything I did. From cleaning my room, to making my school binder nice and neat. My mom always taught me to be efficient in every way I could to help me achieve everything I wanted better and faster. There was times where I would share rooms with my brother. His side of the room was always muddled and disorganized, and mine was all in order by colors and sizes. I was a weird kid, obsessed with neatness.
What defines me is my drive to help people, and the adrenaline and mental high I get from doing it. I can accredit this to my Aunt Rhonda who was a Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) During my early childhood. I remember her letting me sit on her lap after she got back from a long weekend of volunteering, and me marveling over her stories of the shift. By the time I got to elementary school, I had started carrying extra band-aids in my backpack so as to save the life of a possible wounded classmate. When I got into middle school, I was familiar with the first responder standards of care and had my own basic medical bag. I spent my weekends reading “Grey's Anatomy” and watching endotracheal intubation demonstrations on youtube instead of doing my homework. But everything I
An important part of every humans life is having something they believe in. Having something to care about is essential for people to reach their full potential in life. People need a special person in their life, or a great job that sparks passion in them to bring them happiness. There are many of these types of passions in my life but to better understand who I am, there isn't just one, there are three people who have shaped the young adult I am today. My two little sisters and my little brother. However they aren't exactly normal siblings, they were given to us by the City of Cincinnati for temporary care, while their mothers tried to recover from heroin addiction and battled in court to explain why their child was hospitalized because of a lack of food.
I remember a past experience that has influenced me to how I am today. I used to be afraid of heights until I went on an airplane. It had been my first time to ride an airplane and be in the air. When I first stepped on the plane I was very shaky about going. When the plane began to take off from the airport I was very nervous. We were up in the sky and I wanted to be back on the ground in a few minutes. It took a few hours. When we landed in Georgia we got off the plane and got our items.
Personal Identity is something I have never sat down and specifically thought about. Lucky for me, I have seldom had an instance where I was disadvantaged because of my identity. I assume that everyone has parts of themselves that they dislike-it is human nature, but we are who we are and I believe that everyone needs to be proud of that. The person I identify with is diverse from anyone else but that what makes humans so incredible. The person I classify with is someone who I am satisfied with in both my personal and professional self.
I would say distraction was one of the challenges I had to overcome to get where I am today. My friends, relationships, staying up late, watching television or doing something else rather than doing my work, would always back track me even if I thought “I’ll be okay” and just catch back up; it’s not that easy. I use to focus so much on other people in my life, I’d forget about myself and what’s best for me. When I was in the middle school, I would get so distracted by my cell phone, my mom would have a restriction on it so that I couldn’t send or receive text within school hours. Nevertheless, I didn’t understand, but now I see where it could hurt my grades.
It’s been one whole week till my identity has been removed it’s been hard on me I miss my family how everything use to be before my life did this whole twist around before i continue let me explain how it all happened. *Recap last week* it’s Monday January 25, 2016 i wake up in the morning for school do my usual routine wake up , shower, brush my teeth, get dressed watch tv, and get on the bus but today felt unusual i just didn’t feel like me at all so once i get out of bed i head to the bathroom to shower and personal hygiene without looking in the mirror like i usually do i just jump in the shower still feeling not myself i hop out and brush my teeth etc. as i wipe the mirror i notice my hand was.. different so i hurry and finish wiping the
There is a lot to learn about me, but here are just a view things. First, I live at home with both of my parents and I have two younger sisters. I also have a three year old dog named Ella. She is a pointer beagle mix. Most of my time I spend outside of school and on weekends dancing. I am on a competitive dance team at Vibe Dance Center. One of my other hobbies is playing the piano. This year will be tenth year playing the piano. My parents love to travel so I have been to the majority of the states in the US. I have also been to Mexico and Canada. This year for spring break we are going to Costa Rica. When we are there we will spend have of it in the jungle and the other have in the mountains. That is all there is to know about
As soon as I read this question, I immediately knew the answer. It came to me like a refreshing gust of wind, on a sunny day. The answer is beautifully tragic, that answer is being yourself.
Well to tell you how I became the person I am today. You will have to know my past because my past is what molded me into the person i am today and who i will be in the future. I was born in washington D.C in holy cross hospital. Born with a single mother my dad had left us when i was only 2 since then me and my mom have been moving a lot around the united states and for some time out of the united states. i lived in canada for some time then we moved to california then to north carolina then to maryland. Everywhere i've been i picked up some mannerisms and some male influences that weren't the best but i've always stayed out of trouble. By playing my favorite sports like basketball and football. And a goal of mine for a while was to be the
