world I come from is filled with trouble. Growing up has been awfully challenging for me. On one side of my family‚ there are well educated people who know their responsibilities and understand right from wrong‚ and on the other side there are troublemakers who seek to enjoy themselves as much as possible (with the exception of a few) with little to no responsibilities.

The two of us did everything together. Jeremy was the leader between us. He would be the one to come up with the games we played. I was just happy to hang out with him. I thought the two of would be friends for life‚ however it was not meant to be.

My father and I have always connected through sports and they still do. Football is probably one of the most impactful sports in my life. Football and I weren’t always the closest of friends though. We went through our up’s and down’s throughout life‚ but in the end I always came back to it. I remember the first team I was ever a part of. A basketball team

I have always shared my home with different kinds of beings‚ be it dogs‚ cats to monkeys‚ cows‚ birds etc. I come from a place called Nagpur‚ which is a developing city from Maharashtra‚ India. The surroundings have been very similar to a stereotype Indian scene people would imagine with cows on the streets‚ dogs and so on. From a very tender age I loved being in the house yard with my grandfather‚ always eager to explore. Since I am the only child to my parents‚ both of who are working

Volleyball was my passion but I came to the realization that it could not be my life. Back in 2010‚ my mother decided I should try every sport and see what my options were. I tried everything you could think of: basketball‚ dance‚ softball‚ soccer‚ you name it and I played it. However‚ volleyball was the one sport that stood out the most to me. I could go to practice and forget the drama I had heard on the playground. I could lose myself in the game because to me‚ it was my escape. In the fall of my freshman

It was August and we were scrimmaging Westfield; a very good team that had a lot of big players. The coach called me onto the field to play fullback‚ which means that I was probably going to carry the football. As I was running onto the field my heart started to beat a little faster. I had a bad feeling about getting the ball. I

Something that often goes unnoticed in my life is the amazing Catholic education I received at St. Francis Xavier High School. Essentially‚ Xavier provided the opportunity to grow in my faith as well as to form a strong moral grounding. Each year‚ theology classes helped me not only to understand my own faith‚ but to understand others as well. These classes taught me to respect and accept others even if they are very different from me. Likewise‚ the theology classes and numerous opportunities

This is my creative essay for the Film Program at NYU. The prompt was: "Introduce yourself. Describe an unforgettable event in your life and how it changed your perception of yourself or the view of someone close to you. This event can be dramatic and/or comedic. The assignment may be written as a short story in the first person or as an essay." My one fear is that my essay is hard to understand. So any feedback on how it reads to other people would be a huge help. And also any gramatical errors
