A Different Me

Erikson’s statement is true for myself. I have different identities when I am in different environments. When I am around new people, I am very shy. I will only engage in a conversation if I am forced to by a parent or teacher, or if someone talks to me first. I do not approach people because I fear the worst will happen when I do. When I have a conversation with new people, I stutter my words and talk low. As I get used to the new people around me, I engage in the conversation more. I will ask

TITLE In the early years of my life I had no idea that my brother would make such a big impact on me and my life. He has taught me more than any teacher possible could. Through him I learned how to be compassionate. I learned how to treat each and every person with respect, despite what challenges they may face. He brought me into an amazing community that taught me numerous life lessons. He challenged me every step of the way, like any brother should, and altered the way I viewed the world. My brother

A writer to be... In my opinion, writing is defined as fun, a way to be creative and a way to help me clear my mind. It allows me to express my own individuality. Writing may be known as a bore to others who cant seem to find their own writing style, but if you have that "gift" of writing it comes easy no matter what subject or topic. That 's where my liking for writing comes in. I 've always been able to take a topic and write about it without any problems. Once my brain gets going, its hard to

Everyone ever born on this planet, is different than the next or the last person that was born before them. Even twins, though genetically and physically identical, have unique personalities that make each of them their own person. There are similarities between us, however, with some people having more in common than others. Individual things like our appearance, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, family, likes and dislikes end up corralling us into certain corresponding groups. These groups

own school. I was oppressed in speech class when I got up to give a speech about gay marriage. I got up stated my opinions on gay marriage and the teacher made me stop speaking because it would be “offensive” to some people. It ended up with me having to choose a different topic to give a speech and do research about. It was unfair to make me choose something

issues could be drawn from the novels and other works of literature I have read to present day, despite the age of the works of the literature. Ultimately, literature has taught me many life lessons and helped me perceive ideas such as conformity and happiness in a new light. The novel Brave New World has brought attention to me about the dangers of a totalitarian state. In the book, the dystopia governs the society through technology and medical interferences. The all-powerful state controls the reproduction

we have maids that are from different races that aid us in our households. When I was a child, I noticed that they were not, “like us”. No one informed me or gave me a lesson on different races. I witnessed everything by myself. They looked different than us, which gave out the obvious. My parents in fact did not tell me which group I belonged to. Kuwait is a small country where almost everyone knows each other. That being

should be best friends. As I was growing up with an older brother, things were not always like that in my house. It was hard for me to see my friends hanging out and going to lunch with their older siblings because I never had that relationship with my older brother, Zack. Zack was different. He had a lot going on with his life so when he wouldn’t talk to me or blow me off, I would just shake it off and pretend that eventually he would become that fun, older brother we all see in movies. Then I finally

improved my skill of communicating with patients whose culture was different than mine; I did this by picking patients with a unique culture. For example, I would pick to work with a patient that didn’t speak the same language as me. This helped me with communicating with different groups and cultures. For example, if a mother or their family member spoke a different language than me, I wouldn’t not joke around with them as they have a different culture, and my joke may be translated differently or negatively

Growing up in a single parent home with three brothers and one sister was always challenging for me. Not to mention everyday was an adventure for us. Uniquely we were all close in age, so we pretty much we had similar interest. Being the baby of the family, I always got picked on and bullied at school. Although being the shortest kid in school amazingly, I wasn’t scared of nothing. Also being different from everyone else made it so easy to find an outlet. Regardless of how much homework I had or chores
