In my life, in your life, we are going to come up upon to a thought situations. When I faced my first thought situation, I was not quite sure how to react. I was not quite sure how to handle it or help. “My son was chocking with a hotdog” it was the scariest day of my life. Hotdogs are one-off the most dangerous foods for children to eat. Since then, my life changed and I realized how important is to know CPR guidelines to help someone when help is need it.…

After all the ups and downs in my life none of those things stopped me in achieving my dreams in 2012 the year that I received my associates the most emotional moment in my life when I had walked and made my family proud of me. I know it doesn’t seem a lot to many people but to me was the beginning of a very successful life and making a difference in my life and many others. Not only I did this for myself but for my nephews (my brothers kids) to show them that it takes a lot of hard work to achieve for our dreams but anything is possible in life as long as we don’t give up, hopefully inspire them to go far in life. I want to make a change in my family’s lives and make things better for all of us.…
When i as a kid i knew i was different from everyone. I had friends but never seen to fit in their groups. Even when there moments where I fit in most of the time I was abandon to the side. Things for me in school were more difficult than the rest. I don’t know when my parents told me that i was dyslexic, but from that time i had extra help and went into private tutors or anything to bring my grades up. Nothing that people tried would work or work enough. As a child I was ignorant about my problems and as a little kid I only saw the positive, living worry free. That ilusion broke when I move from Spain to America. I realized that I was alone. Even though my childhood had its ups and down I did not know any better, but soon I would realized to how to use my flaws to my advantage. My life experiences have taught me many things that I can use to help people.…
Every human struggles everyone has hardship. When I was young I began to notice that maybe it is hard to understand what other people struggle with. The start of a mundane life began as usual a bus ride to school, but today something else happened a flash of yellow a soundless luxury sports car zoomed bass by a Lamborghini. As the car passed by everyone looked at it with amazement as the never seen a car pass from this part of the street. I began to wonder when will I get one with imaginary job I will live the high life. The bus hits a bump on the road I am begging to rationalize who much work will it take to achieve greatness to struggle to overcome adversity.…
Something that changed me and let me be the person who I am today is friendship. Friends can raise you high above the skies. Or, they can pull you down under the ground.…
Personal background starts off small, it changes and grows over time into something big, it grows into an identity. Walking down the hallway at school, seeing someone standing alone, my first instinct is to make conversation, compliment, or even just smile at him or her. This instinct came from someone once telling me an act so small could turn a person's entire life around. As a kid, reading encyclopedias about random topics, consumed my time. Many days were spent coming home to find an injured wild animal in my dad's arms waiting to be saved. My dad would sit outside and draw animals, trees, and anything else he saw. Nothing excited me more than trying to draw whatever my dad drew, and as good as he did. Any assignment that was handed to…
In life, we all have goals. My main goals are set based on my academics and then I have my personal goals. If one does not set high standards, then what will one have to strive for?…
Throughout my life I have encountered many circumstances that have shaped me into the person I am today. I was born in Moroleon, Guanajuato, Mexico. I attended school in Mexico all the way to second grade. In the summer of 2006 I moved to Cumming, Georgia. It was the hardest thing to do because I left everything that I care the most about. We lived in a trailer which was not the nicest place and in the middle of the forest. I started school at the beginning of August. I had always loved school so I was so excited for the first day. I knew it was going to be hard because I would have to conquer so many obstacles on the way. At this time the only English I knew was probably counting from one to ten and some of the colors. My Father knew some…
Throughout the past year I have endured several life changing occurances. One of my family members troubled through the treturous stages of cancer and unfortunately has passed at this time. If I have taken anything away from this, it is that family is the most important resource in a persons life. Without those people who tell you that you can, regardless of the circumstances, becoming succesful could be very challenging. After clearing my head, I was able to start thinking of a career choice that would make me enjoy going to work. I encountered an opening at a local CVS/Pharmacy as a Pharmacy Technician and applied. After being hired, I immediately fell in love with the surroundings, the people, the patient interaction, and the knowledge…
I think every person in life has had an obstacle in different levels, but mine is a funny obstacle and may be not so logical. When I was a little girl my mom enrolled me in a swimming course and it was all Saturdays, she wanted me to learn to swim because I was going to have that class on school and she was worried if one day a girl pushed me I was going to drown. I don't like to swim and I was afraid to do it, I received three years of the same course and all Saturdays and I didn't have success and development on the course. One day my mother was tired and bored to pay all the time classes and have me doing something that I really dislike, so she told that if I learned in one month to swim and all the technique she was going to take me out from the course and no classes anymore.…
People face and go through many different obstacles throughout life. Some obstacles people get over and some obstacles people do not get over. Some people get themselves through each obstacle life throws at them and learn a lesson from them , while many don’t. I have faced many challenges such as challenges throughout school. One of the major obstacles in life is moving a lot as a kid. This caused me to be really shy and have a hard time making new friends.…
Most teenagers do not have a clue about what they want to be when they grow up. Most young adults also do not know where their path is in life. Even some full-blown adults are still trying to figure out their purpose. I was lucky. I knew exactly where I belonged from about the time I was seven up until now, at the decently young age of nineteen. I do not see my path changing anytime soon; in fact, I know it will never change. But, I did not just wake up one day as a child and know what my path was, while that would be impressive. Defining moments in one’s life defines who they are. There were lots of things I experienced in my life that made me realize my purpose, my absolute passion. I had four of these defining moments in my short span of…
