The first time in my life that I ever experienced true anger and fear was in the sixth grade. A little before Thanksgiving Break‚ I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma‚ a type of skin cancer‚ in my lower back. I had a mole there that was removed earlier that year‚ and the test results on it had come back positive. I did not find out until later‚ but when my mom sat me down across from her to talk‚ I knew something was wrong. It was then that she told me what was going on‚ and I broke down in

My heart won’t stop racing‚ I don’t know why and‚ My eyesight starting to fade away slowly like I had glaucoma. All the surrounding noise around me by the crowd had me going deaf‚ then I started to sweat from all the pressure around me like a morning workout. I was zoning out of nowhere‚ and then I started to realize I was nervous as heck. The crowd started to go wild when the announcers started to announce the starting

For my first biology test I received a grade that I am not proud of. To be completely honest the night before the test I attended a concert and didn’t get to sleep until two in the morning. This optical is defiantly something that I could have avoided. I should not have attended the concert‚ or at least I should have prepared myself weeks in advance knowing that I had a concert the night before. This is my second time taking the class and I expected better out of myself. I made the same mistake I

only thing that separates people who succeed from those who don’t is‚ the understanding of failure. However we cannot be successful in everything we partake in. My first experience of failure was my freshman year of high school. I joined the debate team. I had no intentions of ever losing a debate because it couldn’t be that hard to argue. My teacher signed me up for a tournament over the weekend. I practiced hard and gathered a lot of evidence. I came into the tournament with a cocky attitude. I believed

This is my first math autobiography. I have sat here reminiscing about my math experiences. For starters math has not been my favorite or strongest subject. Many years I have struggle with it. It seems like when my teachers would start to talk about math I would cringe at the thought of it. Never liked math. Always would say what does math have to do with my job or the job I’m getting? What’s the need of it? Not going to use it that much. But little did I know I will use it the rest of my life.

Looking back‚ I was introduced to my first masculine activity when I turned four. At this young age‚ my Dad signed me up for Kung Fu. My Dad thought it was proper because I was a boy. On the other hand‚ my sister who is hardly younger than me‚ was never introduced to Kung Fu because she was a girl. While practicing Kung Fu in an all-boys class‚ I was encouraged to get excited about fighting. As a child‚ I loved anything that had to do with action‚ whether it be watching Power Rangers on television

year‚ my 400 m dash time decreased by nine seconds from the first track meet until the last. Never running in a track meet before‚ I was extremely nervous. Using the bathroom about five times‚ I felt like I was sick. I was shaking terribly before the race started. I could not even set up my blocks. The assistant coach‚ Lindsey‚ set them up for me. I had totally forgotten how to. Even if I had remembered‚ I probably would not have been able to. I was shaking very badly. I got into my blocks

headed for school to finish those standardized tests at the end of 6th grade. So far my class did well and was eager to get them over with. While I was in my zone working on the test‚ I could hear the clock ticking away every precious second passing. I had to get done with my English test before recess. Finally I looked at the clock and the time read 1:53 pm‚ just with a few minutes to spare‚ I finally had finished my test. I was glad that one was over with‚ as I raced home to grab a quick snack before
