Personal Narrative: Why I Take Classes

Decent Essays
I started taking improv classes in last summer and I can honestly say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. I wanted to take classes because it’s something I’ve always wanted to do, but more importantly I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and see where it would lead. Since I started taking classes, I’ve encouraged almost everyone I meet to consider signing up for Level 1. It has made such an impact in my life that I want everyone and their mother to experience it. One thing I noticed from day one, however, was how few minority women there were at DCH. There’s a great group of performers currently at DCH, but I think I can provide a different flavor to the team. As you can see on TV, South Asians are starting to pop up all over TV and

    I was an ambitious sophomore in every way I could be, and this year I have taken my role as Vice President very seriously. I was able to work closely with the other officers to coordinate events and direct the meetings, both crucial aspects of our chapter’s success. Through my DECA experience thus far, I have realized that it is not just a club, and what we do in it does not just stay with us in high school. DECA has been instrumental in my life and I have been enamored of it so…

    Brown is a place where students have the freedom to grow, learn about themselves, and enjoy life. In all my years of school there was always someone looking over my shoulder, interjecting their opinions, or spoonfeeding me the answers. I want my college education to be my own. Taking ownership of my education is a large responsibility, but I am mature enough to handle the challenge. The collaborative atmosphere of Brown, where students work with, instead of against, one another, will give me the guidance and support I need to figure out the best educational path for myself.…

    During the time of my years that I have lived, I have not faced any challenges that were harder academically than taking AP classes. Throughout my years I have faced challenges like riding a bike, walking on my own two feet, or driving a car, but nothing like taking your first AP classes in the senior year. Throughout high school, I kept it out of the way that I would ever take honors or AP classes, but here I am now taking my first AP classes. As now being in the middle of the first 6 week grading period, I have overcome the challenge by doing better on focusing a lot more on school work and not procrastinate and also giving up on certain things like not spending too much time on games lower all the fun activities at a minimum which benefited…

    Since starting high school, my interest in classroom learning had dropped quite significantly. I felt like grades were just a game, and that I should be out in the world learning things I deemed "practical life skills." My senior year I was able to mentor in a classroom of fourth graders for one period, ever other day. I took the class thinking it would be an easy and fun way to spend an hour an a half.…

For this reason, we have been attending induction ceremonies of other chapters. Additionally, we organized a “Fun Day” event on campus during the first half of the summer and invited all the chapters of the Dallas Community College District to be part of it.

    For some people, a pat on the back and a certificate is enough, but for others, this is not the case. To increase attendance and participation in DECA, I would like to motivate members to try their hardest and to have reason to grow in their abilities, rather than just go through the motions of competing and attending. To do this for myself, I set up goals and reward myself in small ways when I reach and exceed them. This method, applied and carried out through DECA, would help every dedicated member within DECA flourish and develop beyond what they thought they could. Motivation is key, and is definitely a strength that I would like to bring into…

    I went into the spring of 2016 semester taking on too much, too many classes, too many hours at work, and too many charity events with my fraternity of sigma tau gamma. I started off thinking that I would be able to take 18 credit hours of school while working anywhere from 20 to 25 hours a week and still find room to attend all of the philanthropy events put on by sigma tau gamma. Simply put, my struggle with the spring of 2016 semester was due to myself taking on too many things at once. My struggle started almost as soon as the semester began. The main cause of my problems was trying to balance the homework from my classes with work.…
