never forget that day, the day I stepped my first foot on an airplane, the day where I knew my life would change forever. Ever since that day, life has momentarily changed vigorously, and rapidly. To this day I thank my parents for having the opportunity to bring our whole family, over to the United States of America. If I would’ve never came to America, I wouldn’t have had the options that I have today. I wouldn’t have been educated the way education is taught here. In my days in America, I may

Baylee Milam 523069 Many people say that life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. Although my life has been very comfortable I have faced hatred, anger, and hostility many places I’ve been. I have and been faced with this and I still continue to see the best in the people who portray the anger or hostility. In many places that I have worked other employees have bad work ethics and bad behavior but yet I still continue to think the best of them. So although I have not faced much

certain moments of that day into a sequence that makes any sort of sense in my head. I recollect the fluttering, fluorescent light bulbs that seem to put me into some sort of morbid spotlight for all to see, and the smell, the sterile smell of a life ended. Much like that of a movie, I saw everything in that hopeless sort of slow motion as if to somehow slow down the reality of what I was to become of me and my family. The early morning of March 24, 2006 was nothing if not the one-day that will forever

will have 365 days clean in 26 days. The other day I almost had to start over. I almost threw all the work I have done away. I almost took the chance on losing all the beautiful things that I have in my life today—away.

the moment my life changed forever; I became a teenage mother. Let me explain. As far back as I can remember, growing up as a child was full of sugar rushes, imaginary friends, and endless adventures. I was the only child in my mother's house for nine and a half years until my brother was born. I had every toy I asked for and every light up shoe I ever dreamed of. My parents both worked well paying jobs and practically gave me any and everything I wanted. Many people called me spoiled, but I

things in my life that I could not live without. From people I know, to places I visit, even the music I listen to all means something to me. The very first thing that comes to mind when someone asks me what is important to me are the people that are important to me. My sister Krista is by far the best sister I could ever ask for; if I need anything she would be the first person that I go to for help. For example one time I got kicked out of a party at 3am and Krista came to pick me up. She is

them have hopes for a bright future. “Real life” or life beyond their parents' homes is just beginning. The past 17 to 18 years have passed quickly; time always does. As a parent, I am amazed at how much my own children have grown and changed in the past three and a half years. Their lives are just beginning, too, in a different sense. Their personalities are still forming, their understanding of the world is vastly and rapidly expanding with each day, and they are literally taking first steps
