My Personal Conviction
Personal Conviction Essay
Everyone has a different want in life. Everyone has their own way of how they will live their life. We all have different opinions of the way life should
go and how it should be lived. How we should raise our children, how we deal with the loss of a loved one, how we get over someone, how we save
money, and etc. Life is full of different opinions and ideas.
How I plan to live my life and my ideals on how to live it are very opposite to others. I believe school isn't meant for everyone. If you don't have any
desire to go to college then don't go. You shouldn't be forced to go to college if you don't want to go. No reason in spending the money for no
reason. I on the other hand want to go to college and don't at the same time. My mom wants to make me go but I feel like it'll be a waste of time. I
want to take a year off, get a job and save. She however, doesn't think I should do that because then I'll never go. I'm not sure what I want to do that. I
want to take a year off, adventure, travel, and...show more content...
I would love to find my perfect spouse, get married and begin a life together. I do plan on being financially stable. I've always dreamt of the type of
parent I would be. I know from my relationship with my mom that I don't want to be that overly strict parent like my mom was. It made me rebel
and want to misbehave because I got tired of being smothered. Yes, my children will have rules but once they hit a certain age I will allow them to
adventure more, only because once I got to a certain age I wanted to adventure more but my mom wouldn't let me and I did it anyways. I will be
that parent that will let their kid go wherever as long as I know where they are and they keep me updated on what they were doing and let me know
they were safe. I will be that parent that will tell their kid to just call when they are in a bad situation and I will come get them because I would rather

Political Autobiography In my life I have never had any political enforcement or strict religious influence. My parents were very lenient when it
came too political preaching. I was taught to be a caring and respectful individual. My political understanding and beliefs have been molded from
my early political memories and socialization experiences. As a young adult I have always strived to become knowledgeable about political ideals
mainly because I was never really taught to believe in something specific. I eventually was drawn towards many different social and political
perspectives, which is how I came to a logical conclusion of how I view the world politically...show more content...
It is very important to be aware of what is going on in the world however sometimes reading can be a better source or information than watching
bias television broadcasts. I believe that if children have to develop their own political opinion at a young age then they will attain values and
beliefs that are more logical. I had structure growing up as a kid and was directed to what was right and wrong but I was not born into a political
dictatorship. My parents were caring people and emphasized that treating others with respect is more important than following some indoctrinated
code. I am fortunate to have been given the freedom to develop my own social and political views. Having political guidance from family is
important but being told that only one particular political belief system is infallible is not the ideal way to educate. My parents have always preached
equality, and that all people should have equal opportunity to pursue their goals despite their religion, race, ethnic background or sexual orientation. At a
young age I was taught to recognize that all Americans have an equal opportunity to aspire to an education regardless of their economic condition. My
parents were a large influence of how I view freedom of speech. They emphasized that all individuals have the right to express their opinions and
advocate their personal beliefs. One of the key political concepts that I was born into was to fight for a clean environment. The environment must be

I started my journey of life in the early 90's and ever since I have been up against barriers and met many different types of characters. All with their

Anyways let's start from the beginning, I started my educational career in 1997 at welbourne primary school/ boy was it fun it had everything a kid
could ever imagine, a massive sand box, shiny new tricycles, super fast scooters and loads and loads of coloured paint. It was unbelievable we were

Wow now this stage of my life which made me who I am today, it had the most life changing experiences up to this date, secondaryschool. My very
first secondary school was Salisbury, it was said that it was one of the worst performing schools in the country and also one of the worst behaved. I
did not know this and didn't believe it because I and most of my friends had achieved very good grades in our SATS. I had achieved level five in
English, five in science and four in mathematics. Anyways when I first started the school was the chitter chatter of other pupils and the smell of
school dinners was as always putrid. The grease they used to fry made the air slimy and un– breathable.
When I entered the massive gates the immense building towered over me. I felt tiny in comparison just like my confidence at the time, I was
terrified. My year had started a day earlier than the rest of the school so that we could get to know each other better. I had already made some new
friends but I had also made enemies. Me and my new friends played some football together and it was awesome they were unstoppable (I was
unstoppable as well) and right there I knew I made friends for life One of my best friends was a boy called Hanad he was a tall and muscular, he had

Narrative Essay Kindergarten
All I wanted when I was little was to have beautiful long hair. All of my dolls had hair down to their waist , and I longed to have hair like them.
Unfortunately for me, my hair did not grow very fast... at all. I was practically bald until I was three; and my hair was only about to my chin when
I was ready to start kindergarten. So there I was, on my first day at Foreign Language Academy. I was in SeГ±ora Vargas's Kindergarten class
holding on to my mom, dreading the moment she would have to leave. I had been really excited about starting school and getting to wear my navy
blue dress and my hellokitty backpack. Actually being in the classroom, however, incredibly nerve racking. Most of the parents were mingling and
asking questions to the teacher, while the kids tried to find their place. Some kids had already began to play games with one another. Others, like me,
were more shy, still clinging to their parent. In all the commotion, I noticed a girl who had the longest hair in the entire class of kindergartners. She
looked a lot like me except she had freckles, a pink cast on her arm, and the hair I had ever seen. Her hair was the same color as mine, but about
triple the length, and with more curl in it. Jealousy immediately swept over me. It seemed like this girl had everything I had ever wished for in my
entire life. I also thought casts were really cool at that time because I did not really understand that broken bones hurt, or that you couldn't really move

An Autobiography Of My Cultural Identity
I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic. My family was catholic and so I was taught to pray and by the age of 13 I had all my
sacraments. For most of my life I lived the downtown area of the main city where my mother and her family had also grown up. I considered
myself very lucky because even though our economic security was not the best as I grew up, my mother always strived for me to receive the best
education she could afford. As a result, I learned to speak English from a very young age and then French, I learned to play the guitar and also to
paint. I also took embroidery and etiquette classes and so on. Because of the location where we lived, I also took advantage of many cultural
interactions with people from other...show more content...
Then, I was born in 1989, her only child. Arguably, this story was an eye opener for me from an early age. I wondered, why wasn't my uncle forced
to stop his life and take care of his parents as well, after all they were both their children. Instead, my mother the female was the one who quit
everything and took care of her parents. As a result I grew up thinking that gender roles were meant to favor men only, while women had to sacrifice
their lives for others.
Arguably, my mother is my role mother. As a single mother, she struggled to provide for me in unimaginable ways. Being awoman and a single mother
in the Dominican Republic played an important factor on her decay in class and economic status. As a result, it created a sense of awareness for me,
to understand that as women we have to work twice as hard than men to accomplish half of what they have. This statement was true not only in the
Dominican Republic in the 90's but also today in America. Looking back at my mother's struggles I cannot say that I have overcome half as much
as she did. However, I can see how being a woman has been a disadvantage and an advantage at times. A disadvantage because as women in my
society, we tend to be victims of sexism and harassment. Yet, it may also be an advantage because the same society that subject's women, at times
favors these in the labor market. For instance, when my mother passed away I was 16 years

Essay About Myself as a Writer
I don't consider myself a very good writer. I write when I am made to or when I have something that I need to say that I can't just tell someone. I
keep a diary. Usually my diary is just a record of what I have done that day. It's not so much about my feelings. I don't really like talking about my
feelings, usually because most of the time I am confused about what exactly I am feeling. I tend to keep the feelings that I do have to myself, to protect
myself from getting hurt.

When I started my high school, I found my current best friend, Marie. We are still friends to this day; she just left for college at George Mason. So once

I'm not trying to make my life all depressing because it hasn't been all bad. And I realize that people have had things a lot worse happen to them, in
their lives, and I should be thankful for what I have. But no matter what I have I just never seem truly happy. I always have this front up, and it
seems like everything is going great, but deep inside, I'm falling apart. This comes out in my writing, and I think that writing is a good release from
all of this. I always try to do my best when it comes to my class work and my writing, but I know that my writing isn't the best by any means. I
always find it important to the best job that I can do, on school work and also in life.
I think that a lot of what got me through writing papers in middle and high school was my mom. She was so great about reading over and correcting
my papers. She stayed up many nights doing that for me. Not because she had to, but because she wanted to help me. There were so many other
things she could have been doing, but instead she was helping me, and that means a lot to me. I'm kind of nervous about doing this all on my own. I'm

I think that conducting a personal interview like this was a great way to gain knowledge. When I talked with Mr. McCaskill, I learned a lot of things,
most of them way beyond just the questions given to ask. We talked of different things that he experienced and many things that he has learned and
researched over the years. It was very suprising, to be truthful, and we were actually able to carry very interesting conversations about the explosion.
When it came to the community and the people around me, I learned a lot of how they acted during the time and somethings that they could have been
thinking. Mr. McCaskill told me about the jokes his high school classmates made when the first nuclear explosion happened in Pennsyvania and how it
thought it was funny that they made fun of the Soviets and later married one. He let me in on how people were worried about the Soviets, them
gaining power, but when they saw the terrible safety haziards that caused the explosion, the feelings changed. Of course they felt sympathtic but to the

By interviewing someone on their personal experiences, it gives the person listening a chance to see something through another's eyes. In all reality,
there is the possibility that the person might remember something wrong and after that, others may learn history wrong. Even with this, just listening to

self is interesting because I am mainly right–brained which means that I tend to use my creativity more than my mathematical skills, also making me
a visual learner. My social self consists of friends, family, and my surroundings. I spend most of my time at home with my family. Whenever I am

I find that I can only recall long–term memories if they are important to me, or if they are dramatic experiences. A few examples of my childhood
memories are my mother reading to me, my grandfather playing his guitar, and my dad relentlessly teaching me how to ice skate, no matter how
many times I fell. The people who affect my social life the most are my family and friends. I have an extremely close family that has played a
major role in my life. They are whom I spend most of my spare time with. My family usually gathers every weekend for dinner. I am also very open
to different religions, cultures, and practices because I know many people with different backgrounds and beliefs. Since I've been influenced by
various people, I've learned at a very young age to never judge people by how they look, dress, feel, or act. I am very fortunate to have learned
these lessons, because many people still do not understand the importance of accepting differences. In a group, I prefer to listen to what others have
to say, and then contribute to the discussion. I try to listen so I am able to compare them to my own thoughts. I enjoy working in a group, because it
gives everyone an opportunity to incorporate their own ideas. My social self is most greatly influenced by my family and friends. I believe that my
spiritual self is the most important out of the three. Although I have a certain religion that I belong to and practice, I believe in a bit of

Physics deals with the most fundamental concepts to understand the intricate beauties of daily life. This led me to dedicate my undergraduate studies
to Physics, in order to expand my knowledge of the field. I enjoy studying Physics and try to keep up with different findings by regularly reading
scientific publications in Physics. During my undergraduate studies, I was attracted towards small and compact, but very effective, technologies so
my brother bought me a few electronic devices to do some experiments with by taking apart the various components and figuring out how they
worked. To gain the essential knowledge behind these devices, I started reading more in depth material on how the macro and micro scale properties
of solid materials are related and their applications in the scaling down of devices.
To broaden my knowledge of crystallography, electromagnetism andquantum mechanics and to figure out the atomic–scale properties of solid
materials, I opted to pursue a specialization in Solid State Physics for my first Master's degree program from one of the well–known universities in
India, Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (MSU). After the mandatory entrance examination, I was selected as one of the 400 candidates for a
personal interview and was selected as one of 25 students accepted as a graduate student to the Physics Department.

Many times in people 's lives, they are asked to define their personality and they do not know how to respond. What is the actual definition of
personality and how can we define our own? Personality is a unique consistent pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting. In other words, personality is a
combination of characteristics or qualities that form the person in you. Like a painting, there are many different color schemes that combine in order to
show the big picture. There is no such thing as a person without a personality. Some people may not have very extroverted characteristics; this means

As long as I was friends with them, I felt secure and sure that their guidance would lead me through my journey on the road to success.
As I grew older, I noticed a change in the way I identified myself. At the age of 12, I hit puberty and my hormones were raging. I now understood
that the stalk didn 't really drop me off at my doorstep. I was now introduced to the next bond in my life, the female. Females have had a major
impact on the way a man governs his life. At this time in my life I knew to be more adamant about my hygiene and the way I present myself in
public. This way, I might attract the same girls that attracted my attention. I was fairly good at conversing with the opposite sex and this was some sort
of fulfillment in my life that greatly influenced the way I think and act, not only to impress others but also to feel good about myself.
After I hit puberty, I realized a new Joey. A more a mature Joey, who started caring for the feelings of others rather than just myself. It was a good
time for this to happen since my Bar Mitzvah was right around the corner. It was soon time for me to be recognized as a man. It was also a time
where I found myself connected to God. This spiritual feeling gave me a stronger guidance which I did not yet realize until I was a little older.

A Biography On My Mom
I wrote a biography on my mom because she is basically an older and wiser me, but her childhood wasn't exactly as easy. Lashae Damore Bibbins
was born on March fifteenth, 1970 in Los Angeles California at the UCLA Medical Center. She was born on her dad's birthday and unfortunately, the
day her father's best friend died from a car incident. Lashae's parents are Lucille and John Jefferson.
Her first memory was when she was four or three years old in pre–school called Kimberly Ann in 1973. Lashae says, "I remember they had an ugly red
carpet, and I refused to take a nap till the teacher said "okay just lay down quietly". I used to watch a T.V show called "H.R. Puffin Stuff." There
was a red flute, an ugly green witch and the trees moved and talked." Lashae's mom especially remembers when Lashae would cry every time she
dropped her off, which gave her a headache. As a child Lashae was most afraid of dying. She would think about it all the time and scare herself. She
also remembers the weekends when she was young. "Saturdays were the best because I was able to watch cartoons all morning while drinking hot
chocolate and eating toast with grape jelly. My favorite t.v–show to this day was the Brady Bunch."
Lashae had two siblings. Her unreliable older brother, Maurice, who she thought was very weird because he would always lie and steal from their family
and an annoying younger sister, Meme, who at the time lived to make Lashae's life miserable by pretending that Lashae hurt

Imagination in three aspects. First Romero is observing the girl in a detached fashion and not letting the personal aspects cloud the Sociological
Imagination. Then Romero connects personal problems to societal forces because Juanita's problem was that she was not being treated fairly as the

orders instead. One day Romero observed that the employer's younger son was giving orders to Juanita and Juanita just stood there shocked and
humiliated. Since she was a servant, she could not express her feelings because no one really cared. She was just a servant for them. Romero deals

Reflective Essay About Myself
Walking into my fifth grade classroom for the millionth time, I searched around the room to see if there was anyone like me. A girl with

friends. Caterina and I were best friends that year. She was from Venezuela, had white olive skin with long blonde hair, and light eyes. One school
day, when we were walking to P.E., she said to me "I like your hair because it stays in place." A little taken back, I was not sure if this a compliment
or not, but I said thank you anyway. Her comment had stayed with me for the rest of the day. I began to wonder why my hair grew the way it did
and if I could change it. This was, thus the beginning of my insecurities. Going to school every few months with a different hairstyle would raise a
few questions for my classmates. Different styles,such as, box braids and marley twists, would change my attitude because I no longer looked the
way I felt most of the time, ugly. But because I knew my look was only temporary, I did my best not to draw attention to myself. As I advanced
grades, I always hoped there would be someone like me. Not necessarily student. After fifth grade, I figured I might as well conquer eighth grade

Society has had a limited impact on my lifestyle, mostly because I despise trends. The largest trends I despise are rap and hip–hop and the clothing,
attitudes, and type of speech that that type of 'music' is breeding. I chose to steer away from that crowd, but it may also be because I live my life
off of adrenaline. My high on life is the energy I have when I get my blood pumping, my heart pounding, and my adrenaline raging. Most aspects
of my individuality reflect that very well. I love hard, aggressive music, and also guns, but my passion in life is extreme sports, whether it be on a
dirt bike, a bmx bike, a snowmobile, or a snowboard. I have a strong set of morals and ethics that I have partly adopted from my parents, but some
are also partly my own. My morals mostly consist of karma (being kind, caring, helpful, truthful, and considerate to others), not littering (especially in
nature), respecting nature, keeping a clean and welcoming home, success that is measured with happiness and not possessions, and having strong
family ties. I feel that I am very strongly rounded individual who is going to go far in life. Many people would agree with that, although some people

My Brother
My Brother – Personal Narrative My brother is the most influential person in my life. His name is Jim and he is 21 years old, leaving a 4 year gap
in between the two of us. Most siblings are always quarreling, and never do anything together. My brother and I are most definitely not like that, we
do everything together. Throughout my life I have modeled to be more like him, he is not only my older brother but my peer and my role model.
When I was 5, I would follow my brother around everywhere, I was the pesky younger brother....show more content...
This could be seen as a good or a bad thing. I was exposed to many things I should not have been by hanging out with my brother and his friends,
but this also helped me to mature earlier. There is a phase in the younger years of my generation's lives when it is considered cool to smoke. At the
age of 14 I was tempted by friends to smoke, but since I had been with my brother when he was tempted to smoke I knew it would be a bad
decision to even try. Watching my brothers go through the trials of life has helped me to resist certain temptations that I otherwise might have
gotten sucked into. I was able to see the mistakes he made and avoid those decisions in my life. I have always been in competition with my
brother; I strive to be as good as or better at everything than he is. He was always bigger and faster than I was so if we wrestled I would get beat, and if
we raced he would leave me in the dust. This instilled in me a drive to improve myself. My brother was not the brightest student. This compelled
me to be as good a student as possible. If my age restrained me from being equals with my brother physically, I would have to strive hard in school
to have better grades than he did. My brother and I are still very close, but now he is engaged. We don't do everything together anymore; he has his
own career and hopes to start a family of his own.

Example Of Autobiography About Myself
Memoir
Everyone has their own stories, no matter it is meaningful or not it is their life and their memories. When I told to write a memoir about languages, I
could not come up about any ideas. So, I ask Professor for help, my Professor told us that everyone has their own stories and it is interesting, because
that is your experiences not ours. People like to hear stories, because it is not their experiences and they want to know what have you been through.
Here are little stories about myself.
I was born and grow up in China, Tianjin, a big city where just an hour away from Beijing. Since my mom wants to give me a better living
environment, and better chance of education; so, we decided to move to US. When I moved to the US in 2012, I was only sixteen years old and
barely spoke any English. Even I had learned English for all my school life in China, I still didn't understand when other talking to me. The new life
was totally different, it was tough and challenging for me. The new language environment and culture differences were giving me a hard time to fit into
this country. When I first came to Chicago; Mother and I went through a great amount of troubles trying to enroll me in a high school. Many schools
turned me down because of my lack of English skills. They wrote me a letter and send me to an ESL class at a community college.
As soon as my mother settled me down in a small apartment, she left me to work in another state. She needs to make money to support me and our
family, so I have no choice to live alone by myself. I was facing the challenge of fending for myself in a totally strange environment, where I didn't
know enough English to ask for help. When I was in China, I never had to cook, shop for groceries, and walk to school. For the first time in my
life, I had to do everything by myself. I had so little money that I could not afford to eat at restaurants every day. Therefore, I had no choice but to
cook for myself. At first, my mother was the only person I can ask for advice. But when it came to practice, it felt ten times harder than it sounds to
me. I remember practicing cutting on potatoes. My left fingers were often wrapped with Band–Aids. But I disregarded the pain and kept practicing it

What I Learned About Myself Essay
This class has taught me a lot about myself in such a brief period of time. I never thought I could dig as deep as I did, and have a better
understanding of who I am as a person just by writing a single essay. I was not expecting the amount of self–awareness that I gained through this class.
I really enjoyed the hermit crab essays, because they really guided me to find my true feelings. It was hard for me to get started writing at first and then
once I got started, it was almost impossible to stop. I love the feeling that I am in control of what I am writing and there are no restrictions and that
I can be vulnerable in my writing. This class really helped me show the vulnerable side of who I am. I was sometimes moved to tears while I was
writing because, I realized things about myself that I never thought to be true before. I would get so excited that I would read it to my boyfriend,
family and friends. This class was in no way easy, but it was definitely worth it for many reasons. I learned how to become a better writer, I learned
about myself as a person, and I constructed pieces of writing that I didn't know I was capable of. Some assignments became easier as time went on
because I became a stronger writer. However, I think the hardest one for me was having to write about the room I was in. It didn't interest me because
it didn't help me dig deeper into my feelings or anything of that matter. I also didn't enjoy having to respond to different pieces of writing, because it

3rd Person Autobiography
Ashley Reed
Autobiography Ashley Reed was born on a warm Texas morning in June 1984. This blue eyed little girl was a huge surprise to everyone because
they were all expecting a little boy. Named after an actress from a soap opera, this bundle of joy grew up as an only child, but shared a lot of time with
cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Raised in the country, Reed had a passion for animals and getting dirty. There wasn't anything that could stop
this little tom– boy from jumping in a puddle of mud, climbing trees, or capturing wild horses. This determined country girl learned at a young age to
be independent. Reed would go out to the pasture and capture a horse, bring it back to the barn, saddle it, and take off...show more content...
The medical field had crossed this competitors mind a time or two, but was never anything serious. An elective credit was needed to complete the
semester, so this fragile freshman decided to sign up for the athletic trainer course. Reed had no awareness of what was in store for the future. This
novice trainer stood on the side lines during every football season, hydrating the players, taking care of sprained ankles, injured wrists, and finally a
broken femur. It was then, junior year, that this novice trainer became a future paramedic. High school ended in December 2002, when this early
graduate walked across the stage and the forthcoming journey began. High school was over, a college in Lubbock, Texas was chosen, and this
young adult was going to attend paramedic school. At the end of the first semester, personal and family issues surfaced, and it was back to the little
small town of Willis. Still wanting to pursue the paramedic field, Reed realized that this wasn't the right time to do so, and began seeking
employment to help with family needs. This hardworking driven individual worked two to three jobs at a time over the next nine years to help
support family. In all this time, the dream of becoming a paramedic was never lost. It wasn't until June 2011 that the door to pursue this field was
reopened. Reed decided it was time to follow

My Personal Conviction

  • 1. My Personal Conviction Personal Conviction Essay Everyone has a different want in life. Everyone has their own way of how they will live their life. We all have different opinions of the way life should go and how it should be lived. How we should raise our children, how we deal with the loss of a loved one, how we get over someone, how we save money, and etc. Life is full of different opinions and ideas. How I plan to live my life and my ideals on how to live it are very opposite to others. I believe school isn't meant for everyone. If you don't have any desire to go to college then don't go. You shouldn't be forced to go to college if you don't want to go. No reason in spending the money for no reason. I on the other hand want to go to college and don't at the same time. My mom wants to make me go but I feel like it'll be a waste of time. I want to take a year off, get a job and save. She however, doesn't think I should do that because then I'll never go. I'm not sure what I want to do that. I want to take a year off, adventure, travel, and...show more content... I would love to find my perfect spouse, get married and begin a life together. I do plan on being financially stable. I've always dreamt of the type of parent I would be. I know from my relationship with my mom that I don't want to be that overly strict parent like my mom was. It made me rebel and want to misbehave because I got tired of being smothered. Yes, my children will have rules but once they hit a certain age I will allow them to adventure more, only because once I got to a certain age I wanted to adventure more but my mom wouldn't let me and I did it anyways. I will be that parent that will let their kid go wherever as long as I know where they are and they keep me updated on what they were doing and let me know they were safe. I will be that parent that will tell their kid to just call when they are in a bad situation and I will come get them because I would rather them be Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Political Biography Essay Conor Samuels 9 March 2010 Professor Simon PSC 101 Political Autobiography In my life I have never had any political enforcement or strict religious influence. My parents were very lenient when it came too political preaching. I was taught to be a caring and respectful individual. My political understanding and beliefs have been molded from my early political memories and socialization experiences. As a young adult I have always strived to become knowledgeable about political ideals mainly because I was never really taught to believe in something specific. I eventually was drawn towards many different social and political perspectives, which is how I came to a logical conclusion of how I view the world politically...show more content... It is very important to be aware of what is going on in the world however sometimes reading can be a better source or information than watching bias television broadcasts. I believe that if children have to develop their own political opinion at a young age then they will attain values and beliefs that are more logical. I had structure growing up as a kid and was directed to what was right and wrong but I was not born into a political dictatorship. My parents were caring people and emphasized that treating others with respect is more important than following some indoctrinated code. I am fortunate to have been given the freedom to develop my own social and political views. Having political guidance from family is important but being told that only one particular political belief system is infallible is not the ideal way to educate. My parents have always preached equality, and that all people should have equal opportunity to pursue their goals despite their religion, race, ethnic background or sexual orientation. At a young age I was taught to recognize that all Americans have an equal opportunity to aspire to an education regardless of their economic condition. My parents were a large influence of how I view freedom of speech. They emphasized that all individuals have the right to express their opinions and advocate their personal beliefs. One of the key political concepts that I was born into was to fight for a clean environment. The environment must be protected and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. My Biography Essay I started my journey of life in the early 90's and ever since I have been up against barriers and met many different types of characters.

I did not know this and didn't believe it because I and most of my friends had achieved very good grades in our SATS. I had achieved level five in English, five in science and four in mathematics. Anyways when I first started the school was the chitter chatter of other pupils and the smell of school dinners was as always putrid. The grease they used to fry made the air slimy and un– breathable. When I entered the massive gates the immense building towered over me. I felt tiny in comparison just like my confidence at the time, I was terrified. My year had started a day earlier than the rest of the school so that we could get to know each other better. I had already made some new friends but I had also made enemies.

  • 4. Narrative Essay Kindergarten All I wanted when I was little was to have beautiful long hair. All of my dolls had hair down to their waist , and I longed to have hair like them. Unfortunately for me, my hair did not grow very fast... at all. I was practically bald until I was three; and my hair was only about to my chin when I was ready to start kindergarten. So there I was, on my first day at Foreign Language Academy. I was in SeГ±ora Vargas's Kindergarten class holding on to my mom, dreading the moment she would have to leave. I had been really excited about starting school and getting to wear my navy blue dress and my hellokitty backpack. Actually being in the classroom, however, incredibly nerve racking. Most of the parents were mingling and asking questions to the teacher, while the kids tried to find their place. Some kids had already began to play games with one another. Others, like me, were more shy, still clinging to their parent. In all the commotion, I noticed a girl who had the longest hair in the entire class of kindergartners. She looked a lot like me except she had freckles, a pink cast on her arm, and the hair I had ever seen. Her hair was the same color as mine, but about triple the length, and with more curl in it. Jealousy immediately swept over me. It seemed like this girl had everything I had ever wished for in my entire life. I also thought casts were really cool at that time because I did not really understand that broken bones hurt, or that you couldn't really move Get more content on HelpWriting.net

For most of my life I lived the downtown area of the main city where my mother and her family had also grown up. I considered myself very lucky because even though our economic security was not the best as I grew up, my mother always strived for me to receive the best education she could afford.

Arguably, this story was an eye opener for me from an early age. I wondered, why wasn't my uncle forced to stop his life and take care of his parents as well, after all they were both their children. Instead, my mother the female was the one who quit everything and took care of her parents. As a result I grew up thinking that gender roles were meant to favor men only, while women had to sacrifice their lives for others. Arguably, my mother is my role mother. As a single mother, she struggled to provide for me in unimaginable ways. Being awoman and a single mother in the Dominican Republic played an important factor on her decay in class and economic status. As a result, it created a sense of awareness for me, to understand that as women we have to work twice as hard than men to accomplish half of what they have. This statement was true not only in the Dominican Republic in the 90's but also today in America. Looking back at my mother's struggles I cannot say that I have overcome half as much as she did. However, I can see how being a woman has been a disadvantage and an advantage at times. A disadvantage because as women in my society, we tend to be victims of sexism and harassment. Yet, it may also be an advantage because the same society that subject's women, at times favors these in the labor market.

My intellectual self is interesting because I am mainly right–brained which means that I tend to use my creativity more than my mathematical skills, also making me a visual learner. My social self consists of friends, family, and my surroundings. I spend most of my time at home with my family. Whenever I am with my friends, I observe their behaviors and listen to their opinions.

The people who affect my social life the most are my family and friends. I have an extremely close family that has played a major role in my life. They are whom I spend most of my spare time with. My family usually gathers every weekend for dinner. I am also very open to different religions, cultures, and practices because I know many people with different backgrounds and beliefs. Since I've been influenced by various people, I've learned at a very young age to never judge people by how they look, dress, feel, or act. I am very fortunate to have learned these lessons, because many people still do not understand the importance of accepting differences. In a group, I prefer to listen to what others have to say, and then contribute to the discussion. I try to listen so I am able to compare them to my own thoughts. I enjoy working in a group, because it gives everyone an opportunity to incorporate their own ideas. My social self is most greatly influenced by my family and friends.

Physics deals with the most fundamental concepts to understand the intricate beauties of daily life. This led me to dedicate my undergraduate studies to Physics, in order to expand my knowledge of the field. I enjoy studying Physics and try to keep up with different findings by regularly reading scientific publications in Physics. During my undergraduate studies, I was attracted towards small and compact, but very effective, technologies so my brother bought me a few electronic devices to do some experiments with by taking apart the various components and figuring out how they worked. To gain the essential knowledge behind these devices, I started reading more in depth material on how the macro and micro scale properties of solid materials are related and their applications in the scaling down of devices. To broaden my knowledge of crystallography, electromagnetism andquantum mechanics and to figure out the atomic–scale properties of solid materials, I opted to pursue a specialization in Solid State Physics for my first Master's degree program from one of the well–known universities in India, Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (MSU).

I now understood that the stalk didn 't really drop me off at my doorstep. I was now introduced to the next bond in my life, the female. Females have had a major impact on the way a man governs his life. At this time in my life I knew to be more adamant about my hygiene and the way I present myself in public. This way, I might attract the same girls that attracted my attention.

For as long as I can remember, I was the only one in my grade, ever since I started school. But this did not mean I did not have friends. Caterina and I were best friends that year. She was from Venezuela, had white olive skin with long blonde hair, and light eyes. One school day, when we were walking to P.E., she said to me "I like your hair because it stays in place." A little taken back, I was not sure if this a compliment or not, but I said thank you anyway. Her comment had stayed with me for the rest of the day. I began to wonder why my hair grew the way it did and if I could change it. This was, thus the beginning of my insecurities. Going to school every few months with a different hairstyle would raise a few questions for my classmates. Different styles,such as, box braids and marley twists, would change my attitude because I no longer looked the way I felt most of the time, ugly. But because I knew my look was only temporary, I did my best not to draw attention to myself. As I advanced grades, I always hoped there would be someone like me. Not necessarily student.

The largest trends I despise are rap and hip–hop and the clothing, attitudes, and type of speech that that type of 'music' is breeding. I chose to steer away from that crowd, but it may also be because I live my life off of adrenaline. My high on life is the energy I have when I get my blood pumping, my heart pounding, and my adrenaline raging. Most aspects of my individuality reflect that very well. I love hard, aggressive music, and also guns, but my passion in life is extreme sports, whether it be on a dirt bike, a bmx bike, a snowmobile, or a snowboard. I have a strong set of morals and ethics that I have partly adopted from my parents, but some are also partly my own. My morals mostly consist of karma (being kind, caring, helpful, truthful, and considerate to others), not littering (especially in nature), respecting nature, keeping a clean and welcoming home, success that is measured with happiness and not possessions, and having strong family ties.

I was exposed to many things I should not have been by hanging out with my brother and his friends, but this also helped me to mature earlier. There is a phase in the younger years of my generation's lives when it is considered cool to smoke. At the age of 14 I was tempted by friends to smoke, but since I had been with my brother when he was tempted to smoke I knew it would be a bad decision to even try. Watching my brothers go through the trials of life has helped me to resist certain temptations that I otherwise might have gotten sucked into. I was able to see the mistakes he made and avoid those decisions in my life. I have always been in competition with my brother; I strive to be as good as or better at everything than he is. He was always bigger and faster than I was so if we wrestled I would get beat, and if we raced he would leave me in the dust. This instilled in me a drive to improve myself. My brother was not the brightest student. This compelled me to be as good a student as possible. If my age restrained me from being equals with my brother physically, I would have to strive hard in school to have better grades than he did.

I never thought I could dig as deep as I did, and have a better understanding of who I am as a person just by writing a single essay. I was not expecting the amount of self–awareness that I gained through this class. I really enjoyed the hermit crab essays, because they really guided me to find my true feelings. It was hard for me to get started writing at first and then once I got started, it was almost impossible to stop. I love the feeling that I am in control of what I am writing and there are no restrictions and that I can be vulnerable in my writing. This class really helped me show the vulnerable side of who I am. I was sometimes moved to tears while I was writing because, I realized things about myself that I never thought to be true before. I would get so excited that I would read it to my boyfriend, family and friends. This class was in no way easy, but it was definitely worth it for many reasons. I learned how to become a better writer, I learned about myself as a person, and I constructed pieces of writing that I didn't know I was capable of. Some assignments became easier as time went on because I became a stronger writer. However, I think the hardest one for me was having to write about the room I was in. It didn't interest me because it didn't help me dig deeper into my feelings or anything of that matter. I also didn't enjoy having to respond to different pieces of writing, because it Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 22. 3rd Person Autobiography Ashley Reed Autobiography Ashley Reed was born on a warm Texas morning in June 1984. This blue eyed little girl was a huge surprise to everyone because they were all expecting a little boy. Named after an actress from a soap opera, this bundle of joy grew up as an only child, but shared a lot of time with cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Raised in the country, Reed had a passion for animals and getting dirty. There wasn't anything that could stop this little tom– boy from jumping in a puddle of mud, climbing trees, or capturing wild horses. This determined country girl learned at a young age to be independent. Reed would go out to the pasture and capture a horse, bring it back to the barn, saddle it, and take off...show more content... The medical field had crossed this competitors mind a time or two, but was never anything serious. An elective credit was needed to complete the semester, so this fragile freshman decided to sign up for the athletic trainer course. Reed had no awareness of what was in store for the future. This novice trainer stood on the side lines during every football season, hydrating the players, taking care of sprained ankles, injured wrists, and finally a broken femur. It was then, junior year, that this novice trainer became a future paramedic. High school ended in December 2002, when this early graduate walked across the stage and the forthcoming journey began. High school was over, a college in Lubbock, Texas was chosen, and this young adult was going to attend paramedic school. At the end of the first semester, personal and family issues surfaced, and it was back to the little small town of Willis. Still wanting to pursue the paramedic field, Reed realized that this wasn't the right time to do so, and began seeking employment to help with family needs. This hardworking driven individual worked two to three jobs at a time over the next nine years to help support family. In all this time, the dream of becoming a paramedic was never lost. It wasn't until June 2011 that the door to pursue this field was reopened. Reed decided it was time to follow Get more content on HelpWriting.net
