I wrote an essay, that was for a grade but my teacher never read it he just graded the format it was in, so I really want to know what people think
As life goes on one tend to think about life. What has happened in his or her life or what he or she cares for? For me I care for others. My entire life friends and family have been surrounding me and giving me support. Life takes it twists, turns, and tumbles all you can do it strap in tight for the ride. For my parents on October 16, 1994 that was their case. I was born from the womb of my mother on that exact day. As a child I was always very clumsy, and I still am still now. Today actually, I ran into a speaker with my leg and acquired a bruise. Usually I am very motivated to be successful in my lifetime. In my future I want to go to college, but I do not yet know what profession I would like to aspire in. Life holds many opportunities and blessings for me, I just have to know which doors to open and which doors to slam shut. Each day I go through, I spend it with a smile. Many people tell me that I am always smiling or laughing. On the other hand, strangers or people I am not close with I don’t smile at or talk to. I know many names, but I doubt half of them know mine. Although, I would never want to be the girl that everyone knows only because I wouldn’t want to know everyone.
In my early years, I have three prominent memories. The first was when I was three or four. My family and I had just come from a photo shoot. I was wearing a beautiful white dress. I always thought I fell out of the car, but from further research I learned I was tripped by my sister Sarah. I landed on a very large, very pointy piece of stone. The fall resulted in my head cracking open. I had staples instead of stitches. To this day I believe if I shaved my head there would be a very large scar. The second is when I was four. I was at a park across the street from my house. I was playing in a little league soccer team. It was half time and I was fooling around with my family. I had a little hot dog toy and I put it in my mouth like most kids do. My head was yanked back by one of my uncles and I swallowed the small toy. My mother rushed me to the car while I was vomiting. I had to be under during the procedure. I know not to place small items into my mouth. The third memory was when I was in preschool. We were at recess and the teacher came back out and asked us all to come in. I was on the jungle jim and I can down quickly. I was running to the teacher, but thee was a cement bench in front of me. I tried to jump over it; I failed. I scraped my entire face, resulting in many scabs. As you can see I was very clumsy and I still am. I constantly trip on my way to class; luckily I have not yet fallen into the mud all over the Santa Teresa campus.
One of my greatest interests is school. I love to have that feeling when you get your report card and you know your parents are going to be proud. Last year I have strait “A’s” both semesters. I hope to do the same this year. I strive to do my best each day at school. I rarely miss a day of school from illness, if I do miss school it is for some other reason. Like on October 23, 2009 I will miss that day because I am going to my Cousin Molly’s wedding in Orange County. This year I am not taking any AP classes but I plan to next year and the year after that. The only “advanced” class I do have is this one, but my math is advanced for my grade since I should be in Algebra 2 or Geometry. My goal in life is to become successful and go to college in two years. I want to achieve straight “A’s” all four years of high school and all my years of college too. I used to want to be a Veterinarian, but now I have realized that profession has its ups and downs that may not suit me. My mother says I should become an accountant or secretary. I may be good at math, but that doesn’t mean I want to pursue it everyday of my professional career.
My second year of softball I was told, by my coach, that I was the happiest person he had met. I do admit I usually have a smile on and I love to laugh. My favorite type of laugh, you know the kind that has you crying, doubled over holding you midriff, gasping for air, feeling light-headed and you can’t even look at the person sharing the laugh with you. I often laugh at myself. I am the person that will randomly chuckle remembering a laugh she or he shared earlier that day or whenever. Then you’ll always get that person sitting next to you give you the look you know that look that just makes you laugh harder. The people I love to spend time with are the ones that make me laugh. I choose my friends carefully, because if you have you have a friend you can’t trust they aren’t really your friend. Truthfully friendship isn’t friendship without trust. Friendship takes great dedication from you and the other half. As they say, friendship is a two-way street. I do get made fun of by my family, but who doesn’t? I admit that out of school, I have absolutely no “street smarts”. I am always the last person to get a joke or I never get the joke. There’s this one joke my cousin told me and it is. There are two penguins in a bath tub. And one penguin says to the other pass the soap. I still don’t get it.
I love to think about life; just thinking of your friends and family, remembering old times, having fun, and just relaxing. All of those should give you joy, and if they don’t you should really rethink your life. I am happy with my life. I have great friends, and a great family. In the future, I will be different, but right now I am happy with whom I am. Everyone has their flaws, and you can spend your entire life trying to hide them or change them, but God created us all in his image. You should be happy about who you are. If you look at someone else’s life, you may realize they either have a way better life than you and you may be envious or that they have a worse life than you and you feel sorry for them. At least you have a home and something to eat each. At least you have loved ones. Orphans can die from lack of human contact. Life has lessons, and you have to learn from them. Let’s say you’re in a river. The place you want to go to is against the current. You keep fighting to get there; you can’t just let the water push you off the cliff. Life takes effort and you can’t live without it. Who I am is who I am, and I am proud of it.
Who am I?
