English Autobiography essay
“If u ever feel like giving up, always remember why you keep holding on”

Around 32 years ago, on the 11th of August, I was born in the lovely city of Christchurch, New Zealand to Leonie and Craig Hemsworth. My mother worked as an English teacher while my dad worked as a social services counselor. I was also blessed with two brothers, my elder brother Luke Hemsworth, and my younger brother Liam Hemsworth. My life in New Zealand was relatively short as my family and I migrated to Australia to continue our lives. We lived in both Melbourne and the Australia Outback in Bulman, The northern territory. My earliest memories were on the cattle stations chasing the cows around back in the outback. Boy that was fun, how I’d wish that I was still an innocent kid chasing around cows in the farm. Besides the cattles, I still remember the crocodiles and buffalos that reside near the farm. After a couple of years residing in the northern territory, we moved to the city of Melbourne. I attended high school at Heathmont college before my family and I moved to the Phillip islands.

When I was a little boy, I’d always watch tv and envision myself as one of characters on tv. Since then, it had became my ambition to be an actor and I’d try to strive towards my goal, my ambition. When I was in high school, I would join drama clubs to improve my acting skills and work towards my ambition. Back then, I would get laughed and jeered at due to my interest in joining drama clubs instead of playing sports. I did not fit in the general male stereotype. I was the outcast of the school. I only had a couple of good, loyal and trustworthy friends. Well, there is a saying “friends: Have less, But the best! I was never demotivated by the insults and jeers as I had strong support from my friends. With my strong determination, I had worked hard and had gotten a couple of major roles in my school play. After graduating from high school, I auditioned for a couple of roles that I saw on

    The audience gains a greater understanding and appreciation of the consequences and societal issues presented through the author’s texts of changing perspectives. This greater understanding is represented by a wide range of language techniques showing the quality of a change of perspective in life. In the short story ‘Forgotten Jelly’ by Megan Jacobson, it demonstrates how an individual understands the consequences and issues while time progresses, which in turn leads to a change of perspective. Likewise, in the poem ‘Mending Wall’ by Robert Frost, we observe how, as the characters develop, they understand and gradually learn more about the perspective of others and eventually leading to a change of their previous views.…

    I had joined my church youth choir and loved every moment of it. Then, once middle school came I decided I wanted to continue my music education by joining the band playing the trombone. The next year I decided to try out for the middle school field hockey team and made it. I continued with band and field hockey until my freshman year of high school when I had the intentions of quitting field hockey in order to pursue marching band because no one had ever done both before. I soon came to my senses and decided that not only was I going to continue with both band and field hockey, but I was also going to be the first person to successfully do that. On top of this, I decided I would audition for the school musical and jazz ensemble which would also overlap with the end of the marching band and field hockey seasons. Through much communication with my coaches and band directors, and musical directors I was able to accomplish this for all four years of my high school career and I wouldn't have had it any other…

    Society often expects certain type of behavior from everyone. But in the big picture, this behavior is only based on what type of sex you are and what your responsibility according to your sex.

    The end of 8th grade, the end of middle school, was a scary time for some, myself included. After the summer, I would be in a new building, with new people, teachers, and subjects. It wasn’t going to be a smooth transition for me, being an introvert for the most of my school career. My grades we in a great position, that wasn't an issue. I had always been able to maintain my grades. A large part of that was that I hadn't had internet for the past several years. The issue, however, was that high school was a place where it was pretty much required to be social and to go out of your comfort zone. This is also why I was hesitant to take up an offer that would eventually benefit me throughout my years in high school.…

    From singing Phantom of the Opera in the shower to pretending to be Mimi Marquez swinging from the wooden bars and ladder of my bunk bed belting melodies from my favorite show, Rent. My mother implanted theatre into my heart since the beginning. But I was always missing just one aspect of the magic I knew, performing. I yearned to hear the patter of my feet on the stage, for my voice to echo throughout a theater during a rehearsal, to transform into a different person and tell their story. But when I was younger I guess it just wasn't my time yet. My family didn’t really have the money to enroll me in any sort of performing arts program and our town lacked a theatre program in schools until high school. Performing in the comforts of my own bedroom would have to do until I got to high school. Once I got to high school I eagerly auditioned for the 2 shows they produced a year, desperate to finally be on a stage. Yet, there was something missing from the experience, I wasn’t aware of it at the time and it wasn’t until my friend Kevin pulled me aside during one of our rehearsals and informed me about the pre professional theatre company he was apart of. Soon enough I convinced my mother to sign me up for theatre camp at Gaslamp Academy of Performing Arts. Essentially it’s where I found myself as a performer and as a person. Before the program I hadn’t ever taken risks or made choices on stage as a character and as myself in life. If I was ever in a place with the opportunity to meet new people I wouldn’t take advantage of it, usually I’d wait until people came up to talk to me because I just couldn’t bring myself to talk to people. My confidence was at an all time low before Gaslamp, I didn't believe that I could accomplish anything. However, spending 8 hours a day for a month with a group of accepting, loving, intellectual, inspiring people changed me and I learned so much about myself that I…

    A hero is a man noted for his special achievements according to the dictionary, but if you ask most people what a hero is, you will get the same general response. They will probably say someone who does something for other people out of the goodness of his heart. Odysseus, who is the main character of the story, "The Odyssey" told by Homer, would fit the dictionary's definition of a hero; but if you go deeper, looking at what people feel a hero is, he doesn't even come close. In the book, Odysseus does nothing out of the goodness of his heart. Even if Odysseus fought in the Trojan War, he is not a hero because he is self-centered and ignorant to other peoples' values and needs.…

    I was only 5 years old when I entered to my first soccer team and I was also very short, my coach use to call me “el chaparro” which in english means “The short guy”.
