...your work, is a reward just by itself. The time in my life that made me start to believe that hard work really pays off is when I graduated in my 6th grade. I have realized that since I was in my 1st grade I was working hard to be in the honor roll. I always want to make my parents proud of me. I just love that overwhelming feeling of accomplishment when you finish something and you can make someone happy. Seeing my parents smile whenever I tell them I’m in the honor roll just makes me feel happy too. When I started high school I still maintained being a hard working person. I got an academic scholarship and I was accepted in the Special Science Curriculum in our school. We have 2 subjects of math and 2 subjects of science. We were more advanced than the other students in our school. It was a bit hard for me to maintain my honor roll though, because there is a lot competition going on with my other classmates. Most of them are smart but that didn’t hinder me. I worked a lot harder. I stayed up all night to review and finish all my projects on time. I passed my entire test and quizzes, maintained a good grade and I go to school all the time. All of that hard work really pays off. When I graduated from high school I was still in the honor roll. In conclusion, I think giving your best efforts, working hard and being responsible is significant in our life, at the end of all this hard work there will be a good outcome. We will achieve something that we want. I know sometimes it...

...teachers. My favorite classes were seventh grade science, eighth grade English, and Spanish class, my teachers were Mr. Cornford, Mrs. Dixon, and Mrs. Gill. In science, I looked forward to seeing my friends and having fun with labs. I would look forward to science every single day, prepared for a new lab. In English, I learned new grammar and some new words which helped me write stories at home, which I always do. Mrs. Dixon helped me understand literature better and improved my writing skills. In Spanish, Mrs. Gill always made up fun ways to learn Spanish and I always looked forward to learning more after lunch. She was always a fun teacher. My proudest accomplishment at Tevis was earning honor roll every single quarter. I was proud of myself for never losing my honor roll streak and so were my parents. Another proud accomplishment was myself learning Spanish. My family speaks Spanish, they are bilingual, and I hardly understood them when I heard them. Now, I can because of Spanish class and Mrs. Gill. The teachers I respected the most were Mrs. Gill and Mrs. Dixon. Most kids see teachers as mean and grumpy most of the time, but Mrs. Gill and Mrs. Dixon were the nicest and most helpful out of all the teachers I had in all my nine school years. They helped me learn a lot of new things and I was thankful to have them as my teachers. I’m looking forward to being successful in high school and moving onto college to make my parents proud. Junior high was a very interesting and fun...

...Becoming a member of the National Honor Society is a prestigious achievement that recognizes students for their academic excellence, leadership skills, service to the community, and commitment to personal growth. It is an organization that values integrity, scholarship, service, and leadership, and being a part of it is a privilege that not only looks good on a resume, but also provides opportunities for personal and professional development. I believe I should become a member of the National Honor Society because I have consistently excelled academically, demonstrating a strong work ethic, determination, and a commitment to learning. I have maintained a high GPA throughout my high school years, and I have always been passionate about giving back to my community and making a positive impact on those around me. By becoming a member of the National Honor Society, I know that I will have the opportunity to continue to make a difference in the lives of others. One of the “hidden gems” about me that may not be immediately apparent in my portfolio is receiving many awards for accomplishments that I have received during high school. One award that I have received is an honor roll certificate. I received this award for maintaining a high GPA during the first semester of my sophomore year. Another accomplishment that I received was a personal success award. I received this because I have always been on top...

...I understood that I would be within the Fifty-Eight percentage of African-American children living without their biological fathers. I never let this stop me from becoming a teacher because that is what I wanted to be. I challenged myself by taking all Pre-AP classes in Sixth Grade and that was the best decision I have made academically. I continued to keep up that 4.0 GPA and Honor Roll and Perfect Attendance. My grades were up to par because B’s were unacceptable for me. My classes were demanding but promoted me to continue taking them all three years. Along with my academic accomplishments, I also conquered extra-curricular activities. In the athletic department, I was named “Seventh Grade Female Athlete of the Year”. I excelled in every sport! I was apart of the Varsity Girl’s Choir and a member of the National Junior Honor Society, NJHS. Middle School was a foundation on how to flourish into a well-matured young woman despite everyone who doubted...

...Leadership to me is defined by setting a good example, making decisive decisions, communicating with others, and positively reinforcing your peers. Those are the exact skills I’ve developed from my direct involvement with soccer. Since I could kick a ball I’ve loved every aspect of soccer. After facing many trials and tribulations, one my proudest achievements is being elected team captain of the varsity team my junior and senior year. What made it so special was my role. Our team was composed of very talented juniors and seniors, but we also had aspiring freshmen hungry to learn and get better. One of those underclassmen was my little brother. As the captain of our team, I had to lead the upperclassmen during practices and games, inching...

...Journal Entry #1 “Accomplishments” Writing for the most part can be a pretty tedious task, never the less it is part of my daily living. Most of my current writing is done for school essays or work purposes. Having to write detailed professional field reports for supervisors and managers to read. I think the hardest part for me when composing essays has always been the initial development and getting started. Making sense of what is in my thoughts and translating those ideas clearly on paper. Often times, I think really hard into it and just coming up with that opening sentence to catch my reader’s attention can truly frustrate me. Once I get started there is nothing stopping me at that point. I just let the flow of thoughts and ideas smoothly translate into my essay while still making sense and sticking to my main objective, which is sticking to central idea and not getting off topic. As I been told many times over, the main purpose of composing is to send a direct clear message across to the reader. Once I have reached the conclusion of my essay, I feel a sense of true accomplishment and pride in my essay. I have successfully pass the initial hurdle. Then comes the easy part which is the revision of the first draft. The revising process is piece of cake and where all the fun starts. Going back proofreading and making all necessary adjustments in order to have a solid and well polish essay is the goal. One of my greatest accomplishments for me personally, was...

...The Game of Golf When I started playing golf with my father at the age of seven years old, I never could have imagined how much this game has taught me about life, motivation, and myself. My senior year in high school I was playing as the number one and captain on the varsity golf team. That honor was bestowed on me, because I was supposedly the best man on the team. Which just happened to be true. It was an honor that I truly enjoyed because golf had been a hobby, sport, and passion I had worked extremely hard at for close to a decade. But playing first man also had its drawbacks. The one that I will speak of here is the style of speaking that I had to use while playing in a tournament. It was five o’clock at night on a crisp fall afternoon. A bitterly cool wind swept across the hilly landscape as the leaves blew into the air, out of the woods, and onto the multi-tiered green. I stood behind my ball to line up my ten-foot birdie putt in hopes of breaking my own personal high school record. I pick a line at the hole and step up to the putt with the confidence to make it. As the mallet of the putter swings back like a pendulum, the ball rolls and rolls right on line at the hole but then stops just inches short of a birdie. I walk up, slightly disappointed at the miss, and tap in my par putt to finish out the final match of the season. The game of golf is a game of inches, as even the slightest miscalculation or imperfection can lead to failure. Fast forward to the following...

...with the kids. It was five of us at the time, our dad went to prison and left my mom with everything. When my mom went to work I had to be a mom when she was not there at times. I had to put away my teenage ways and become a parent. It was very hard at times because my sister's and brother had respect for me instead of our mom. I got devastated at times, but I pulled it together. I had no life because I was being a parent to my siblings. In high school I was a very troubled teenager who did not have a sense of direction. My grades were not good the first 3 years of school; it was up and down from there; but I always got through it somehow. My last year of school I pulled it together and made honor roll the whole entire year. At the end of the year I received a reward for my accomplishment. At that moment I felt very important that year. After High school I enrolled in college as a criminal justice major, everything came back to me and I fell in the same situation that I was in when I was back home. When I left home to go to college that was the first time I felt like I was on my own, I did not have to be a parent anymore, and I was only responsible for myself. The two years that I had attended I was not ready for college. My focus was having a life because it was taken from me as a child. I enjoyed being a free with no curfew . The school suspended for six months, I never went back to school. At that very moment that was the best thing that ever happen to me. I learned to be a...

...The Open Book It was a sweet sunny day of February 9, 1991 at 2 o’clock in the afternoon when birds are chirping and flowers are blossoming out from their buds. Amidst the calmness and the hush of the air touching the leaves of a narra tree in the front yard, a very loud voice went out from a small nipa house. “It’s a boy”, said by an old woman in a cracking voice. It was like singing in chorus – a tone like a lullaby when the child cried. It was like a paradigm shift, who would have thought that for nine months of swimming, playing, kicking and eating inside a mother’s womb, a child was born named “Kenneth” by his father after baptism. I am the youngest in the family. My name was chosen using a random method – and yes, not based in astrology, horoscopes or my father’s favorite basketball player. I could have imagined how happy my parents were when I survived the process and given the opportunity to see the beautiful world. I believe that I got most of my physical traits from my parents through genetics. I am 5’6 in height and my father too. Aside from the height, I got my skin tone from my mother. People always say that I look like my mother. I believe that not only do I got most of my physical traits from my mother but I got much more. My mother and I have a lot of traits that are similar. We both think alike and have many common interests. Genetic is one way of explaining the similarities, but I think it is more because of my childhood days. My mother took care of...
