and experience a new city, with new people and new aspirations? These questions filled my mind with doubt. However, I began to consider more than just the city. The city of Madison is undeniably beautiful, but the richness of the people and the experiences I had had here were something I had begun to take for granted. I realized that even if I remained in the place I had spent most of my life growing up in, and knew all the roads, the architecture, and the hangout spots, the life experiences that
Personal Narrative Draft 2: In this story I will be talking about the amazing water ride in Universal studios, Singapore. I still remember till this day, how many times I rode that ride. Since last 7 years we have been going to a lot of amusement parks like 6 Flags, Disneyland, MGM Studio, Lego land, Epcot center,etc. When we jumped in the car, I was as ready as can be. I was very excited when I read the map of universal studio. All of a sudden I began to become greedy, I wanted to go to the Harry
I had a strange dream the night before we met again in September, a dream about you. But you were no longer a campus or a schoolhouse or a classroom. No, you were a person. And you were there, outside my room, waving at me as always with that cute, disarming smile on your face, even as you shivered in the brisk autumn air of the New England evening. I invited you inside. You said you missed me, and I said the same. We spent that night catching up, first talking about you and what you had been up
look to my side awkwardly. Okay... not going to talk anymore about my social life with these people. “Sure, sure” she replies with confidence and laughter, she probably thinking that I was lying or so. Truth was, I wasn’t comfortable in exposing my personal life to these people that I just met. Unlike them, they talked a lot about their life today even from the beginning of their younger years. The group of line assemblers seem to have a special bond that results in their strong teamwork. Many of their
It was 4 a.m., and I woke up knowing that there was an unwanted guest in our house. I was on vacation in Australia at my cousin’s house. My cousin went out with his wife for the day, and I was home alone with my nephew. We were watching movies all day long, and didn’t really get tired. We ended up sleeping at midnight. Suddenly, I was woken up by footsteps, “What was that,” I thought to myself. Then I turned to my side and saw that my nephew was gone. “Shibu, Shibu, where are you.” I said while
I’m going to write about my personal experience with fishing. My first time fishing was a fun one, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what a hook was from a weight. I had no idea how to even cast a pole. But now I have a personal record for myself with a 6lb 5oz Largemouth Bass. Now…well I wouldn’t say I know everything about fishing but I know a good amount. And it took a lot of practice to learn some things. But, now after watching probably 100 YouTube videos
The injury that ended my life waited upon me as I dribbled down the court. It was October 29, two days before Halloween. Three days of basketball practice left for the week. We just got done from a drink break and all went out on the court to finish the scrimmage we previously started. The coaches told us who was going out to play. I heard my name called to be center. Ten people filled the court, half in pinnies. The scrimmage started. The ball was passed in to me and I dribbled it down the court
My experience with the construction for Essay 1 was one not without any difficulties. Early on, I struggled with assimilating the assigned reading material and crafting a thesis statement. In particular, both of the articles were quite lengthy in text and concepts. There are many detailed explanations on a variety of abstractions, and even scientific data analysis that I did not possess an adequate level of expertise to dissect and discern. Moreover, I actually misread the original essay assignment
In order for us to understand people of different racial and ethnic identities, we must approach it in a holistic manner—fully considering every aspect that affects these identities. In reflecting of my own racial and ethnic identities, the way I’m perceived by people because I am Latina and also an immigrant can at times be negative due to the evolvement of American history, and although I live in America, my culture is a mix of Argentinian and American, and this then forms the social construction
Today, I finally began my tutoring experience at Glenwood Elementary School. It got off to a rocky start, but as stated before, those are the experiences that happen when becoming a new teacher. I worked with two students today. The students I worked with today were elementary aged fourth grade students who were working on their multiplication facts. I was very impressed on how well the students knew their multiplication facts and how well they were comfortable with me being in their classroom
