1. Essay On A Single Story
My ideas and thoughts about Africa had been changed after I listened to Adichie's speech. The way she described the danger of a single story was
very inspiring to me, and I could relate many of the experiences I had to her story. I was born in Pakistan and moved to the U.S. in 2007. When I
came to the U.S. I lived in Virginia and went to Freedom Hill ElementarySchool. On the first day of school I sat next to an Indian kid named Sai and
he didn't want to sit next to me he told the teacher that are countries didn't like each other so he wanted to sit somewhere else, but are teacher said
she didn't want to hear any of it. So during the year we had to work on many things as partners, and we got along great we had many things in
common and at the end of the year we became pretty good friends. At the beginning he probably heard some things about my country and he just
assumed that I was the person he heard from those stories, and after meeting me he had a different understanding of it. Soon after the year ended my
dad found a better job in California so we moved here. I lived in Alameda and went to wood middle. The school I went to was very diverse and this
time I wasn't the only Muslim...show more content...
This quote does help me understand Adichie's story I understand where she was coming from. You can't judge anything by its color or where it comes
from without experiencing it at first. I do understand the effect of this story on me and my other members of my group. Another thing she said was
"They make one story become the only story.(13:23)" People only heard one thing about the Middle East and never looked at it from the other side,
and many people continue to believe that single story till

Personal Narrative My Life
I never really thought about where my life was going. I always believed life took me where I wanted to go, I never thought that I was the one who took
myself were I wanted to go. Once I entered high school I changed the way I thought. This is why I chose to go to college. I believe that college will
give me the keys to unlock the doors of life. This way I can choose for myself where I go instead of someone choosing for me.
I have chosen to go to the local community college to get used to the college experience. College life can be an exciting time but at the same time it
can be a challenge. I feel that starting out at the community college would be a better chose than "jumping" into life at a...show more content...
I know this is what I want to do with my life. I want to be a positive influence in the lives of children. I want to be able to stand up and show the
children that it is okay to be yourself and stand up for what you believe in. I am a well round student. For nine years I was actively involved in a
girls organization. This experience taught me many things. We were actively involved in community service activities, for which I received the
Silver Award. ( The second highest award in the organization.) I learned about the value of friendship and patients with others. This organization first
introduced me to my future career. I was also involved for three and a half years in a student government club on campus. In this club I learned many
life lessons. One of which was the value of hard work. I was one of the few people that organized the Junior/Senior Prom of 2000. My responsibilities
included planning corranation, buying and organizing decorations, planning the busing schedule, booking the photographers, fundraising, ect. This
taught me about hard work. But the best part of it was going to Prom knowing I was one of the only reasons that it happened. As far as school goes, my
schedule is very diverse. I am taking child development lab, which is a class where students from my high school can go to the local elementary
schools and work one on one with the students. I have work in the elementary school for two and a half years. I

3. My Life My Journey Essay
As a very small child I don't remember too much, but the things that I do remember were seen through a child's eyes that has made me the person that
I am today and I will always have those memory's with me until my last breath on this earth. In this essay I intend to show how my childhood and
adult life to this point has influenced my life, my journey. By utilizing the adult development theories from this class I also intend on showing how
they relate to my Life experiences and where I am today as an Adult student.
Its funny how as a child you look at things. As time passes, those same child memories become life experiences as an adult. It is stated that

I lost my little brother in 1982 at age 22 in an accident at my parent's home. Robbie was taking down a C.B. antenna and it struck a high power line
that ran into the local General Motors plant. Robbie was killed instantly. As Erickson's stated in his psychosocial development theory, "which
refers to the development within the social environment in which a person lives, primarily focusing on relationships with other people"
(Simanowitz & Pearce. 2003). This had brought back memories of how my relationship was when we were little. I was always kind of upset with
Robbie because he was one of those kids that had that natural athletic ability. Robbie could run faster and throw better, do everything better when
it came to sports, but the real reason I was mad at Robbie most of my childhood life was because every time something went wrong, I always got
the blame and in trouble. Mom would say "You're older you should have known better" Yes she was right most of the time I did know better. I was
the middle child and I was always the one that got into trouble even though Robbie might have done it first. I had a good childhood for the most part, I
can't remember not doing without the things that I really needed as a child. Things like clothes, food, shelter and love from a family. I recall having my

4. The Story of My Life Essay
This explains the beginning of my life all the way to the end of my life. My life from the beginning was very fun as I grew up living with my
mom's friend and my friend. But there were a lot of fights and I was very hyper back then. I have ADHD so back then when I was little; I was very
hyper and wouldn't stop moving around the place. I always was annoying back then and never seemed to get my homework done at school. I was
born at Kaiser Hospital during the year 1996. The first place I lived was on the street Via Harriet and was right next to a train. It was always noisy
when the train passed by because it shook the house and scared all the animals. It wasn't the best place to live, but we eventually moved to the hills, I

Overall I know that I'm going to graduate because I'm pushing hard and all I need to finish is my Cyber High and keep up my grades and I will
graduate. I want to go to Chabot College because it's the closest place to go to. I am planning to get my associates degree then transfer to Cal State
East Bay University. I don't exactly know the requirements of classes to get into Cal State, but as long as I get my AA degree I should be fine. I
am focused on technology and computers; I like to choose classes that can be similar to wiring or soldering. I am not that sure if I would be more
focused on computers or wiring, I think an Internship might help me out. My career would be Technician or Electrician because I'm focused on
electricity and wanting to discover what would happen without getting electrocuted. I'm still unsure if I just want to work on physical components
on the computer. I used to work on computers a lot, but it got boring and I can't do it as great now. Soldering is interesting for me because I get to
repair broken wires, being able to strip a wire. When striping a wire, you get to know how the wire is connected. I think a life event for me is to
grab my master's degree, which is what I'm focused on. That's like the best degree to get, but it's really difficult to receive. I wouldn't like going to
years and years of education, but it's totally worth it. Getting a higher degree affects the amount

5. Essay on Personal Life
What would the world come to if people did not strive to help themselves? Would more be accomplished or nothing at all? When is helping oneself
self–interest, and when is it rude and selfish? How far does one have to go to not be selfish? In order to be not selfish, must a person spent all their
time giving to others? Is in a way giving to others even show selfishness? If that is true is it possible to end selfishness? These questions do not have
straight answers, and probably never will. Yet, to understand the importance of self–interest it is important to understand my opinion of the answers to
these questions.
Self–interest is when people strive to help their condition, or themselves without implicating harm on others. It causes...show more content...
This can easily be seen when the young athlete is suing their parents for stealing their money. This can also be seen on any of the court television
shows where people who were once the best of friends are having an absolute brawl over a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Which although it is
a lot of money, is not close to how priceless a good friendship is. Self–interest will always benefit a country while selfishness can only hurt it.
Self–interest motivates people to work harder, and if people work harder it helps everyone around them. Selfishness is quite different from self–interest
because it inflicts harm on people, while self–interest will almost always help people achieve their goals.
Giving to others is an amazing thing to do. Yet, I do not feel it is something that should be automatically expected of people. I think everyone must
work hard to get money, and lead the life that they want to live. With hard work comes profit. This profit that people make is used to pay off their
own bills, and then buy things they want for themselves. I think that people should take care of others only after they take care of themselves. This
does not mean never think of others. It just means that why should one person have to work hard to earn a living, while another person receives free
hand outs.
I also feel that people give to others to help themselves feel good about themselves. There are

6. Personal History Essay
I am satisfied with what I have become; a student specializing in Physics with special interests in experimental Condensed Matter Physics. I grew
up in a very small town. A town not fully developed; there were very few resources and not many quality schools to acquire a solid education. I had
to pass an entrance exam to get into a good school for 8th grade at a time when most students in my town would drop out of school after 7th grade in
order to search for work and support their families.
My parents could not complete their undergraduate studies because they had to work to support their families, but their emphasis on the importance of
education, their dedication and massive effort inspired me to search for the highest education...show more content...
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.
