Throughout my life school had always come easy to me. I had always gotten straight A’s and never had to worry about studying for tests. This all changed when I entered high school and I faced the reality that I was actually going to have to study and spend time on schoolwork. My first semester of high school was rough because never in my life had I studied and now I was faced with copious amounts of homework and weekly tests. My first semester I ended up getting B’s for the first time and even a

My First Marathon By the time I entered Tsinghua University in 2006‚ my life had been occupied by boring studying for several years. There were many things that I never believed I could do like being a monitor of class‚ getting into a fancy relationship or dancing on the stage. If those were things I had still imagined‚ marathon was one thing that I had never imagined. A distance of 42.195 kilometers (about 26.4 miles) was not kidding. In the first month I went to Tsinghua‚ the student union

The first and last Dan Savage‚ an American writer‚ once stated‚ “Ultimately life is disease‚ death and oblivion. It’s still better than high school” (Savage). This quote represents what my high school career was like; for example‚ I have been to 4 different high schools. I was in foster care‚ so I would move around a fair amount. Moving around‚ I experienced many first and last experiences in high school. Despite what Savage stated‚ not all of my first and last experiences in high school were horrible

What was your first experience in high school ? What thoughts were running through your head at the time? My head felt like it was going to pop off my body. Foremost‚ I grew up with parents who moved from the Dominican Republic and never had a college education. The time and dedication they take to do their jobs is incredible. There are times where I don’t get to see my father for weeks being he’s too focused on his job. On one occasion my father had to work for almost 48 hours straight due to a

I decided to go with the sociologist Erving Goffman’s theory of how in certain social situations‚ we are all like actors and actresses playing a role‚ referred to as impression management.
