Personal Narrative: My Construction Jobs
Ever since I started high school, my dad has started bringing me along on his construction jobs during the weekends. These jobs consist of a lot of house repairs ranging anywhere from window replacing to painting a whole house. Every saturday it's a new job and new location. It's a good experience for me because mostly all the time these jobs are in different areas around Orange County and I really like to visit other local places or cities i've never been to. These jobs are really tough and grueling as we work outside in the hot sun working with heavy equipment.

When I was 14 my father pulled me and my older two brothers from school and put us on his paving crew- child labor right you think? no! I loved it! never in my life had i ever felt so empowered and in control than i did when i was shoveling asphalt. the reward of this hard work was not money but the knowledge of knowing that i was helping to support my family, also being a 14 year old female that could out shovel her two older brothers was an impressive perk! i was the only female on the team and the youngest to boot. hard labor encouraged me to branch out and finish my education. i then went to tongue point astoria jobcore where i completed my g.e.d and high school deploma and then became a certified carpenter and welder.

    Personal Narrative: Why I Volunteer At Texas Animal Welfare

    I volunteered at Texas Humane Heroes, a local animal welfare organization that gives a homeless dog or cat a chance of finding home. It is a nonprofit organization that benefits from the involvement of volunteers. This was a very unique experience because I got to work with a lot of different volunteers and staff members. There were different volunteering opportunities from foster volunteering to helping out around the place. I helped around the place with other volunteers. We cleaned the dog and cat cages and washed their bowls. It wasn’t fun to pick up their waste, but we got to play with the puppies and the kittens. We also had to greet customers and inform them about the cats and the dogs that they had up there. In the afternoon, we had to walk the dogs. So many volunteers and I, took the dogs out.…

    Personal Narrative: My Voluntary Work

    As the single child in a family with working parents, I spent the most time of my childhood living and hanging around with my dog. This experience might be one of the reasons that I am very compassionate to animals and sensitive to people’s needs. My voluntary work is in a welfare house called Alenah's home. I love working there because I like seeing the smile face of the children there – even some autism babies don’t smile facially, I believe they can feel the love when being caressed softly.…

    Personal Narrative: My Heart Is In The Work

    “My heart is in the work.” That one, simple sentence embodies my passion for learning. As many people progress through school, they lose the desire and passion for learning. They see school as a routine they cannot wait to escape from. However, for me, my desire has only grown stronger. In my sophomore year of high school, I decided to transfer to a residential high school with a more rigorous curriculum to satisfy my need for an academic challenge. I wanted to experience a school where the content and quantity of coursework forced me to improve my work ethic and time management skills. I wanted to truly learn the material and have ample opportunities to apply it in various academic areas. Most importantly, I wanted to go through that experience…

    Personal Narrative: My Work Ethic

    Growing up I had two loving parents, they always wanted the best possible for me. School was always challenging for me. I never liked it, and I never had a good work ethic. It started when I was young, my parents never made me do chores, and they always rewarded me for minimal efforts of work, and it did not help me in the long run. I had a very easy life growing up, but being spoiled does not help when you become an adult. It’s very hard to just gain a work ethic, it takes a lot of time and effort.…
