The most significant part of my life has to be around the 7th grade.The 7th grade is one year I remember very vividly it is a time in my life that changed drastically. I remember the 7th grade with great detail not for good reasons this time in my life was a time of pain and sorrow for me. In the end i think it might of made me better in the long run and shaped me into who I am today. Back in the 7th grade I was a completely different person I was a lot more soft spoken and about 5in shorter. Going into that year of school I thought it would be the same as always but I couldn't be more wrong. That year I started getting bullied in school but I was used to it with a lastname like Dixon but unlike what i was used to this was more often. I was
The time that we moved to Westcliffe, Colorado. I always remember the times when my parents talked about coming out to Colorado. They said it was a place where they always felt good, especially my mom. Most of the time when we were back there, I remember that my mom was sick in bed, because of the heat and humidity. It made her really sick, but when she came out here, she always felt much better. That was one of the main reasons, why we moved here, because my dad knew that mom would feel better here in higher elevation. So when the day came, I was glad we moved somewhere else.
In life, some events happen and becomes an unforgettable memory, that teaches a lesson, that becomes one of the basic guidelines to life. Many people can point out the exact moment in their life that was changed forever by a single event. The event that forever changed me and was most significant to me was when I moved to Hoover. This event changed my life because it made me realize how fast you could lose friends, how every action doesn't need a reaction and it also made me realize how far the school zoned for this district could get me. Before I moved to hoover I had so many friends.
I would have to say that the most significant event in my life that has and will affect my
One thing i knew about me back then was that i wasn´t that hard to get along with because i barely talked and i was always shy so that made people talk to me. The shy girl always have someone come talk to them and try to be their friend and that´s how i met another girl who i called my best friend and her name was Irene. Me and Irene was so close just after a few weeks and i started going around the corner to her house after school and i will stay over there all the time, even on school nights. She was so unique in some way because she had like red sandy brown hair and her skin was like caramel syrup and she had so many freckles on her face, she was just different to me. I also realized every elementary school i went to their was always a group of females that just didnt like me for some reason. I thought it was because i was so quiet but when i finally talked i came off so aggressive. I changed so much during these times because everything in elementary school was dramatic and all the kids made something so small into something so big back then. A girl could push you and that will be a fight or somebody will say one smart comment and that would be a argument and thats what i mean so dramatic because now im older and i just shrug everything
After a difficult year in seventh grade, I was going into eighth grade nervous since all of my friends that were with me for most of my school life parted ways with me and I felt all alone going into eighth grade that year. When eighth grade year started it was still difficult for me to feel comfortable since I don’t have much of close friends anymore and I was still being made fun of by some people and I took jokes very personally that year. I would also feel very different between certain days, sometimes I would feel confident while other days I’ll feel like nobody likes me and be so down on myself. Soon though I managed to get used to how eighth grade was like and even though I still didn’t have as many friends years prior I was now starting
The schools were small and there wasn’t much diversity. Kids used to make fun of me for my name or color and it got so bad that we had to go to the principal. He had our whole class switch lunches so were with kids our age instead of the older ones bullying us. The other kids would spread rumors about me, because I was a vegetarian or because we lived in our hotel which had an attached “house” to it. They wouldn’t include any of the younger kids and if I stood up to them they would tell on me. I don’t let other students push me around now. I am who I am. I can’t change that and I won’t. When I moved here in 4 grade, I was still bullied occasionally, but I had good friends who stuck by my side and still do. I want to be the person others were to me through those rocky
Then my family moved Yorktown, Indiana the summer before my 4th grade year and I started attending a public school. I only made two friends that year and I was bullied for everything from where I moved from to the kind of shoes I wore. I made very few more friends through 5th and onto 6th and 7th grade and dealt with more bullying. Towards the end of my 8th grade my English teacher who I adored made the class split up into groups and then preform a scene from Romeo and
The most memorable event in my life was when we moved out from Russia to a country that changes lives and is known as a dream land called the United States of America. When we sat on the airplane that was going toward the United States in August of 2004, we knew our lives are going to be changed in the way we always wanted them to. After twelve years of not going to school and being discriminated by Russian citizens, this moving to a new country was the most amazing, not just in my life generally, but for my entire family as well.
Everyone has an event in their life that helped changed them in some way or stood out to them in some type of way in their life. Rather if it is, something like a birth of a child, a death of a family member or even receiving a job. A significant event in my life and helped me grow as a person was when I decided to pack up and move to Houston, Texas. My move to Texas may have been short but in that short period it helped me to grow to be more independent and to provide for myself and much more. When I made the moved to Texas, I moved with family members that I knew but I was not close with it.
During middle school, I had to mature very quickly. My parents got divorced when I was 12 years old. When they first told me the news, I was devastated. I had always thought my parents would be together forever. I started crying because I didn’t know what else to do. My other siblings were too young to understand what was happening. While they were working things out, my parents would leave us home alone. I realized I had to step it up, and take care of my siblings. This moment was very important in my life because it made me grow up at a very young
Those early years in school were definitely the best because everything seemed so easy for me. That ability to understand and retain information easily would end up taking me far later in my school career. Those after-school moments with my mom are a key part in my life as well, and also prepared me for school in the social aspect. Those years are now faint in my memory, but ever-present in my soul and
After reviewing my life, I have decided my life defining moment was when my family and I moved to Texas from Oklahoma. I consider this move my life changing moment because it changed so many things in my life. This move set the stage for an entirely new life for me. Moving six hours away from the only home I knew certainly called for many changes.
Freshman, sophomore, and junior year of high school could never compare to senior year, though these were the years that molded me! I learned about boys. I experienced my first heartbreak. I got great advice from instructors I will never forget. And those years taught me how to forgive, but never
Most people have some sort of experience or memory that has had a profound impact on their life. A parent passed away, a competition was won, or an obstacle was faced. My most impactful experience is much simpler, yet just as important as these moments. Summer camp. I know, it does not sound like anything big, but my years at a small summer camp in Maine made me who I am today.
I loved elementary school until I got to the fifth grade. I started to get bullied every day, and it affected me physically, emotionally, and mentally. As the years passed by the bullying got worse. People would talk about my clothes and my hair. My mother did not always have money so there would be times I would have to wear the exact same clothes every week. Also, my mother did not know how to do hair neither. There were many times when my hair would be all over the place, and people would constantly pick on me about it. I use to wish that I was a boy so that I could beat up all of my bullies, because I felt as a female that I was too weak to defend myself. I would frequently hide in the bathroom or a classroom when it was lunch time, or
