When I was younger I always wanted to like one of the guys. I never wanted to dress up or fix my hair. However, now I am always doing my hair, makeup, or shopping online. I think that I changed so drastically because of the towns I grew up in. When I was in second grade I went to a very small town school where nobody really cared about their appearances. While I lived there, I probably could not name five different makeup products. However, when I moved to Willard in eighth grade I saw that there were several other girls curling their hair or doing their makeup before school. After being exposed to the new environment, I started to learn how to apply

When I was younger, I was always extremely competitive, and I was always in a sport. I grew up playing volleyball, soccer, and basketball. My big goal was to play volleyball in college; however, it has changed dramatically as I have grown older. When I reached my freshman year of high school, I started to realize that winning wasn’t everything. I started enrolling in art courses and completely fell in love.

It is commonly said, as well as believed, that change is inevitable. It is bound to happen, whether we choose to believe in this concept or not. An excellent example of change, change of character specifically, would be Eliezer Wiesel in his book Night.

His mentality changed and developed more and more as the book progressed, he has clearly changed from the once religious and faith-based boy, into an anguished and desolate man.

Who knew that I would fall in love with Color guard and Winter guard. “Color guard uses various equipment, such as flags, rifles, and sabres, along with dance, to express dynamic passages in the music accompanying the marching band show or winterguard show. Usually marching bands and color guards perform during football games at halftime, out of tradition.” The sport of the arts has impacted my life in many ways such as: letting me use a God given talent to spread his word, help to express my feelings, and to meet new people and make a life long relationships.

I would argue that colorguard, an activity in which one spins flags, weapons, batons, and props with the marching band, should be considered a sport (Dictionary.com).
The Colored Junior College was established to provide an opportunity for African-Americans to receive college training. The Junior College progressed so fast that by 1931, it became a member of the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and was approved by the Southern Association of Colleges. In the summer of 1934, the Houston School Board changed the junior college to a four-year college and the name to Houston College for Negroes. When the university opened its doors in September 1947, it had 2,300 students, two schools, one division and one college - the Law School, the Pharmacy School, the Vocational Division, and the College of Arts and Sciences. Responding to the changing times, in 1973, the 63rd Legislature designated Texas Southern University as a special purpose institution for urban programming. As a result, four more academic units were added - the College of Education, the School of Public Affairs, the School of Communications and the Weekend College.
An athlete and a graphic student are two different people with two different views on things. While the regular students get nagged on i don't as much.

Then there's the graphic side where i am a photographer and screen printer, and my competitive fire is still there. Well maybe it isn't.

True Colors was developed by Don Lowry in 1978 and taught by Dr. Robert Ray Meadows, an Associate Director of 4-H out of VA Tech when I saw it. He was sharing this as a way for us to support people by giving people a tool to think about differences in people. I thought it would be a fun way to think about personalities and supporting people.

Color fills our world with beauty. We delight in the colors of a magnificent sunset and in the bright red and golden-yellow leaves of autumn. We are charmed by gorgeous flowering plants and the brilliantly colored arch of a rainbow. We also use color in various ways to add pleasure and interest to our lives. For example, many people choose the colors of their clothes carefully and decorate their homes with colors that create beautiful, restful, or exciting effects. By their selection and arrangement of colors, artists try to make their paintings more realistic or expressive.
In my life, I have been exposed to a challenge called change. Change can occur in many different ways and is dealt with in many different ways. I have come to the awareness that change can be the deepest of all things. I always thought that change occurred when you moved to a state or when you lost someone real close to you. Those are a challenge to change, yes, but change doesn’t have to occur over a climactic incident. It can just appear overnight when your brain winds up when it’s time to do something different. Even with friends that you used to have and know that move on. For example, most of my friends from elementary school, I don’t even talk to them anymore.
