You may often hear this when you’re growing up in a public school‚ “Partner up with someone!” or “Find someone to work with.” No matter in what class‚ there’s always a assignment that you need to complete with someone in the classroom. So during the very first day of school‚ I was lost. I followed the crowd to my homeroom‚ and incidentally grabbed one of the brown bags. As I marching up the stairs‚ people start looked into the bags and so do I. Same with all the transfer students‚ I don’t know what

Growing up with overprotective parents has taught me valuable lessons such as organizational skills and respectfulness‚ but my personality has suffered from it. Often times my parents have restrained me from attending a party or have restricted me from potentially “dangerous” activities. Adolescents need adventure to find their true selves‚ and discovering it is a task that should be journeyed alone‚ without overprotective parents. Parents are considered the best advice givers‚ but if they happen

Growing up with my mom things were pretty blunt‚ DON’T do things you know you have no business doing. My sister Nyla and I were like two peas in a pod‚ we did everything together and often defended one another so it was fair for my mom to assume that if something bad happened we both were in on it and she would spank us. At the time I thought it was horrible‚ I look back now at the stories and I laugh. My sister and I did all sorts of things from sneaking extra snacks to setting a water bed on fire

wanting to let some thoughts out of my head about this playoff run‚ so I figured I could share them with you guys instead of some Chiefs fans that really couldn’t care less. Growing up in Steubenville‚ Ohio‚ we lived much closer to Pittsburgh than Cleveland‚ and the majority of my family was from Western PA. This meant I grew up as a Pittsburgh sports fan. Some of my earliest sports memories were watching the Steelers win the Super Bowl and the Penguins hoist the Stanley Cup. The two sports I didn’t

economically‚ politically and receiving proper health treatment.

Growing up as the oldest was challenging‚ making it more difficult was the fact that you’re the only girl with 4 brothers. Setting an example is without a doubt one of the most unmanageable‚ yet accomplishable tasks‚ especially at the age of 8. Having to grow up with a single parent was the most probable reason as to why I had to be such a responsible sibling/daughter. When my mother was not around‚ it was my job to pick up my brothers from school‚ feed them‚ help them with homework as well

Growing up in a small town I rarely experienced any adjustments. I attended the same school a majority of my lifetime. With rarely any change‚ high school was this unfamiliar petrifying setting. The breakaway from my daily routine was one‚ I was ready to encounter with the guidance of my loved ones. However‚ life was at a peculiar state just around this time. My family came across complications and my parents were undergoing a rough patch. Growing up in an unbalanced environment at this age‚ the

Growing up the melanin in my skin had always been darker. As a child you start to pick out the differences but you never think anything of it until those differneces are coated with the venom of hatred. When they start dripping out of someone’s mmout I was always told to appreciate the skin that I had although as I got older it seemed to be harder to do. Society seemed to define beauty as being lighter and I was not in that category. My hair thick & "nappy"‚ my lips full‚nose wide. I couldn’t find

Growing up fast is not necessarily bad; but in retrospect on my first year in college‚ I tried to grow up too fast and lost my youth. There is something about being young. The jokes. The fun. The spontaneity. But when does youth end? I do not think it should end. There is nothing wrong with occasionally goofing off or taking a random road trip once and a while. Moving to New York City and living right beside Wall Street made me believe that I needed to be serious and fully mature. I was already buying

Growing up in a household with a different culture was very arduous for me until I perceived it as a creative blessing and the most character-building thing I’ve dealt with in my life. I spent half of my childhood being ashamed of my ethnicity and the other half being fine with it‚ but not giving it too much thought. My family was from Kingston‚ Jamaica so I really didn’t understand that much of the United States because my parents were somewhat learning about the country too. Having to grow up in
