Diaz 1 Oscar Diaz Ni Bueno HED 100 – 25072 15 October 2014 Self-Reflection After a long hiatus from academics I decided to return to school. I was an excellent student in High School but never really took to the college life when it came to academics. After working full time job for several years‚ returning to school as a full time student seemed merely like a dream. I thought of taking some classes as a part time student but could never bring myself to commit to it. When I finally decided

grades did not reflect my fullest capabilities. Everything became stressful and the only time I had became devoted to sleeping. This also made it very difficult when it came to applying for colleges and scholarships. Since I am a first generation student‚ I had to learn the processes on my own with the help of my college counselor. Since my freshman year at Metro Academic and Classical High School I was afraid that the courses would be too rigorous and I would not be a successful student. This

Scars are left in our bodies and our minds as a reminder of harder times. As we grow older we are marked by our experiences. Some scars are forgotten about and others will always be there as a reminder. Just like any person I have scars that were left on me from my mind to my body. Like all we have scars that will never heal and others that are left as a joke. But I am here today to talk about a scar I have in an odd place‚ it is on my left butt cheek.

The sky started to glow fiery red as the sun moved behind the mountains. My grandfather and I regularly walked during the evenings but that day we walked for a while. There was something different about that day‚ as though we didn’t want to go back home. We kept on strolling down the red brick road until we reached the famous Buddhist monument which was fairly close from our house. The monument had immense eyes that stared at everyone who walked past it. My grandfather explained to me that the eyes

I think that it’s possible for you to like work as long as you do it on time. The work most teachers give out isn’t that bad and doesn’t take that long. If you get behind‚ you’re most likely to create an even deeper hole for yourself. That’s why you should always turn in your work on time‚ so you don’t have to deal with later and not get on the teacher’s nerves! The best job that I’ve had that doesn’t pay is being treasurer for my previous school and Torch Club. I like this job because it makes

Middle school was the time of finding new friends and getting involved in school activities. People around me were making new friends and leaving their old ones and started joining different sport teams.

“Ignorance is bliss.” In life it’s better to continue everyday without acknowledging the struggles faced everyday by others‚ yet as we stay ignorant we cannot help those who need it. Bliss does not create necessary changes within our world for those to live comfortably. When I visited my family in the Philippines‚ I grasped the struggle they face everyday. As a child‚ I remember sorting through piles of old toys being packaged away in a box to be sent to my cousins. Yet I could not wrap my head around

A Fake Reality I have experienced many crazy occurrences in my lifetime‚ stories of real fun and adventure that any young kid would love to enjoy. I also have always had a vivid imagination‚ creating storylines for me and my cousin to re-play‚ but this was a step further into a reality. A moment that seemed too real‚ but not at all‚ at the same time. I woke up in the middle of the night. A feeling of unknown came over me‚ and it took a moment to realize I was in my older sister’s room
