An Experience of A Lifetime I use to always sit and wonder if people realized how many teens were victims of dating violence. Looking around public places with fear in my eyes‚ I could see people don’t see the abuse that goes on in some relationships. I‚ on the other hand‚ can see abusive relationships almost everywhere and almost everyday. I never noticed them until I was part of one. Being part of an abusive relationship changed my life and me as a person. I was once part of an abusive

My clinical nursing experience at Chestnut Hill has had a profound impact on my academic and professional journey in nursing. As a nursing student in an accelerated program‚ I am consistently saturated with a host of medical and nursing care knowledge. In a very short period of time‚ this information must be absorbed and retained. Consequently‚ I have found it very difficult to bridge the academic realm of this program with my clinical experience until now. For example‚ if I am assigned to a patient

Canada is the poster child of immigration. In my experience a large number of Canadians are ignorant and uninformed about immigration and therefore immigrants. In my first months in Canada was not prepared to deal with the plights of nuanced racism‚ materialism and eventual assimilation often experienced by immigrant youth. With adequate institutions and support this concerning issue could be mended but seems to go largely ignored and unnoticed by the general public. I remember when my family

Learned Food Aversion I experienced a food aversion when I took an anti-allergy medicine with water. When I was seven‚ I had an allergy on cats. When the allergy started‚ I took very nasty and bitter pills with water. In time whenever I drank water without the pills‚ I felt bitterness in my mouth. I didn’t drink water since then. Only in five years I started to drink water again. At first I felt bitterness in my mouth from the medicine which I took with water together. Therefore my unconditioned

Growing up I had to struggle with my learning disabilities add to that having to learn a whole new language it made my life a challenge that I had to overcome ‚ as well as learning from the many failures that came with it. Imagine sitting in a classroom listening to a teacher talk about verbs‚ pronouns and action verbs‚ but the only thing you know it that you don’t seem to understand a word that she is saying.

that the best way to learn was through repetition‚ a principle from behavioral learning theory that dominated educational thinking since the time of Ivan Pavlov and his experiment with animals. Students would spend their time copying spelling words‚ historical information‚ and mathematical formulas over and over again until they “learned” the information.

commander as my most significant crucible experience. Although the vast majority officers prepare for this role relatively early in their career‚ my assignment to the position occurred abruptly‚ unexpectedly‚ and certainly imposed some traumatic qualities within my life at the time. These characteristics seem to fit Bennis and Thomas’ description of a crucible event. Furthermore‚ I actually reflect upon this experience often and can know frame the experience within these authors’ definition. And finally

Reflecting on the experience of going to Canada for the first time‚ it seemed similar to most American cities that I have been to‚ until we got to Parliament Hill‚ but what I was especially interested in was what happened once we were inside the House of Commons. At first glance the House of Commons seems more like a comedy show‚ but there is a deeper meaning behind the genius political ploy that impacts Canadians. Walking from the bus to the bathroom the city of Ottawa did not strike me as largely
