It’s been 6459 days since the day of my birth, it is the year of beginning a new life, it is the month of clarity, it is the time where we think about what we want to do for new year’s resolution. It is the month of January, the month where I find a piece of me. Each day I learn something and day by day I become a young mature women, the women that my mom wants me to be. It all began on a hectic day, the day I was born on January 12, 1999 at the Coney Island hospital. It was the day that I began my journey in this world to find the person I want to be. My parents moved around a lot when I was an infant, few months after my birth I lived in Texas. Later on, When I was one years old I came back and lived in Brooklyn, my father found a job as a taxi man. When I was two years old I went to pakistan with my mom and came back after two years. I lived in a two bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, even though it was small for 8 people, I enjoyed it because I was closer with my family. I am the fifth child out of six siblings, my mom gave birth to my little brother in April. My community was small, everything was close to me, my school, the grocery store, toy store, the park, my friend’s house even the mosque. I loved it, I would be outside all day playing with my siblings or friends, after school I would go to the mosque with my siblings and read the quran. After mosque, I remember I would go the deli and buy laffy taffies or ice cream. At the age of six, I had to move to Staten
September 2003 is a date that has impacted my life in various ways. Every person is a book in process, we have a beginning, make critical choices, have a climax, but with no wonder how it will completely end. When I was six years old, I didn’t realize I was going to start my American Dream. I was not aware that I was leaving my love ones, my best friend, and my house to live in a country where I knew and had nothing. Crossing the scorching deserts in the middle of the night, I had no idea my life was actually going to change for the better. Being brought from Mexico, I was directly enrolled in Pactolus Elementary School in North Carolina without any basic knowledge of the English language. As a new student, I was afraid to speak because I did not know
Some people say that with dedication, persistence, and time people can accomplish any goal. Others say that people are limited in what they can accomplish and need to be realistic when setting goals.
Cold harsh winds in the air on the day of that 11th day in April 2002 in Roslyn, New York. Besides the awful weather, I was born that day. My life contains of my wonderful family with all my brothers, parents, and even my dogs. I also like to do my hobbies which consist of golf, fishing, and the racetrack. The 3rd thing that is very close to me is my New York football Giants. My exceptional family, my hobbies, and the New York Giants all explain my life.
June sixteenth two thousand and sixteen. There I was in my bed crying uncontrollably. I did not know whether I was crying over the fact that my mom was moving to North Carolina, or the fact that I am being forced to grow up in a matter of twelve hours. For seventeen years my hand has been held, and I have been led through life by my parents; I have never had to worry about the simple things like doing my laundry, making dinner, or driving myself where I needed to be. After all of the sacrifices my mom has made for my family the past eighteen years, it was her turn to put herself first. She was offered a promotion, and it was not my place to tell her to turn it down.
April 13, 2010 was the day that my life had completely changed. My dad came home from a long day at work and had some excited news, at least that’s what he said. I remember when my dad walked into the house and told my mom the news first, I will never forget the look on her face. My siblings and I knew the news could not possibly be good by my mom 's expression. My dad told my brothers and I that we are moving to California because he had received a promotion. We had lived in Georgia for seven years of my life. I was so familiar with the land and every Sunday my family and I would go to the mall. We would eat ice cream, go shopping and later watch a movie. We lived in a gated community and they were like my second family. I was very distraught when my father had told me the “good” news. I had to leave my friends, family, and all of my memories in Georgia.
When I was only four years old, my life changed forever. It was the year I moved to North Carolina. My dad’s friend got him a job opportunity that he simply couldn’t give up. So, he quit his job and found a nice rental house to live in. I had moved before but I don’t remember. I moved from Indiana to North Carolina with my brother my cat and my parents. When I moved to North Carolina, I was aware of what was happening, but I never realized how different everything would be. The house we moved into we only lived in for a year, but it was a pretty hectic year.
On Monday, July 24th, 2000, at 1:28 p.m., at St. Alphonsus hospital in Boise, Idaho, I, Lynzee McKay Misseldine, was born. I am the first born of two. Nothing worth writing down happened until September 3rd of 2001. That was the day my little sister, Maelie, was born. Eight days later, the 9/11 terrorist attacks happened. That is the first thing I can remember. I was holding my sister on the couch with my mom. She saw it on the news, and she called my dad. Mostly, I had a really great childhood. The biggest event in my life thus far, occurred on July 25th, 2007. My mom passed away the day after my seventh birthday. I am positive I could write a whole page about that day in particular. I could tell you about how I had slept on the floor the
October 8, 2015, is the day that my life experienced a total change. My best friend, who I had known for over ten years, passed away at the age of eighteen after a year-long battle with cancer. Ryan’s struggle and ultimate passing had a profound effect on how I live my life. He taught me that one does not have to be popular and outgoing to get involved and make a difference. After his death, I began to break out of my “shell” and try new and important things. I believe that the best was to carry on his memory is to do this I would have not normally have done and live like each day is my last.
Born on April 4, 2003, I, Aurelia, have lived a pretty average life. I was raised in Mount Salem by my parents Hein and Mary. I have two siblings, Janessa and Emelia. On my free time, which is not very often, I go for bike rides, read and play games with my family. In Elementary school, I was the Student Council secretary. This summer I had a job cleaning other peoples houses. The most significant thing that happened to me this past month was having my cousins over from Mexico and in one week going to the Aquarium, the CN tower, African Lions Safari, going bowling, and having four family gatherings.
“Ahh!” , as I fell to the ground. I rode my bike for the first time today , or at least attempted to. Never mind that let’s start from the beginning. I was born January 29th 2003 in Palmetto Baptist Hospital, where my brother was born also. I grew up in South Carolina ands I’ve lived in the same house all my life. I attended Bethel as a toddler then transferred to Meadowfield at the age of five. I ended up skipping a grade and meet my best friend Lauren in first grade. I went through elementary school as a normal child making A’s and B’s. I can still feel the rope burns of tug and war, or the rush I felt when jumping over hurdles during Field Day.
My life was not much of an interesting one, but there were some events in which not many people know of. I was born in Palm Springs in August 19, 1999. Most of my life I have lived in Desert Hot Springs. I travel a lot in my childhood, mostly to Mexico in a small city named El Bajio. El Bajio is a small city near Aguascalientes. The world I live in is an opportunity goldmine. Not many people take advantage of this many opportunities. I feel like my childhood make me into who I am because when I was two years old, my mom was taken away, so we had to go to where she was taken. At the time I was very scared and did not know what was happening. Now a days I remember that moment and it reminds me how important family is to me. A personal accomplishment would be the time in middle school when I earned three medals(AVID, perfect attendance, and for A’s and B’s).
September 2nd 1958 it’s my first day of fifth grade and I had just moved to a new house, new town, and new school. I woke up excited to go to my new school,new friends, and a new start. I got up and got ready to start my my first day. I put on my favorite shirt and skirt with my new long white socks. I put my hair into two braids and tied two bright red ribbons in, to match my skirt. I ran down the stairs grabbed my backpack and bursted through the door. I didn’t even stop to eat anything or even grab my bag lunch. As I got on the bus I didn’t know anyone so i sat by myself in the fourth seat and sat quietly as i looked out the window.
My personal goal as a student at the University of Phoenix is to obtain a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management within the next two years. This goal is very important to me because of the impact it will have on my family, work and personal life. In my family it will set a positive example for my daughters, grandchildren, and youngest sister. My family has been a source of support throughout my years in college as I have pursued this degree while maintaining a full time job. Obtaining the degree will be an accomplishment not only for me but also for my family who has given me the encouragement to reach my goal. I would like for my grandchildren to remember their grandmother as a strong and educated woman.
As a child and even as a teenager one tends to make dreams and set goals for life. On occasion these goals are far stretched and sometimes even fairy-tale like, we tend to see life through a rose-colored glass, not taking into account the many sidetracks life throws our way. At that stage in life our goals tend to be less focused and somewhat unreachable. However, the process of growing up, or maturing, tends organized and center our goals, we learn to make compromises and set goals for our goals. There are different types of goals, short term and long term. I have learned to separate the many goals I have into three main categories: family, professional and personal.
My whole life I have always wanted to become a successful engineer, and graduate from the University of Cincinnati. Some of my goals in life are to go to the University of Cincinnati. Another one of my goals is to become some type of engineer. But as of right now I would like to be a aerospace engineer. To be honest I really don’t know what influenced me to want to become and engineer. But something about engineering always appealed to me for some reason. But lately my engineering teacher has had a positive impact on me and is really making me like engineering and the overall field. So I guess that Mr. Smith has influenced me into being an engineer. My plan b is to be an engineer too. But this type of engineering would just be easier to
