Autobiographical Essay: The Person That Changed My Life

Improved Essays
Autobiographical Essay I have too many flaws to be perfect, but I have too many blessings to be ungrateful; that is just one of the little mottos; I live by. My life has not been butterflies and rainbows, but it also has not been so depressing that I want to fall asleep. There have been many elements that have made an impact on my life, whether it is, from getting sick, or to moving states it all has made me the person I am today. First off I want to talk about the old days, the ones where I was just born. When I was born my lovely sisters, Baylee and Brinkley, were ecstatic to have a new sister. The excitement did not last long; when I was seven days old I was rushed back to the hospital because I was severely sick. It took quite awhile …show more content…
I was so ecstatic for Baylee I never really thought about the fact that she would not be living with us anymore. When it finally hit me I did not want her getting married anymore. I became really moody and I was acting like a child and I was in the seventh grade. Thinking back on it now I laugh because I was acting immature. I still remember seeing her on the alter and I was in a gold dress and pink shoes. Because of that one event my favorite color is now gold and pink. As I said earlier I was in the seventh grade during that time and while I had a great time at her wedding I started to struggle in school. I never really got math but that year it was the worst. I swear I was even having trouble doing the easy stuff I once did in second grade. I never fully understood why I could be so dumb at something but then so intelligent at something else. After school one day I started watching this movie on OnDemand that was new. It was called Jupiter Ascending, the movie was about a girl that was born destined for greatness in the future the only catch was she had to work for her abilities and everything she did seemed to fail. She had to understand her abilities and work at it and in the end she mastered them and was able to fulfill her destiny. That movie is by far my favorite because I can relate to it easier than I could if I watched Twilight. That night I watched the movie gave me more inspiration to work harder and helped me realize that it is okay to struggle in

    Have you ever stopped caring so much that whatever happens, happens? I remember the time I had gotten in trouble by my mom because I had walked home from school. It was a gloomy day from it being so cloudy and cold. I was talked into walking home during school by friends whom, at the time didn't care about school as much as I did, cared nothing of school. I didn’t like it, but then again I started not to care either.…

    Disappointed, disbelief and fear filled my mind as I sat there between the shattered windshield and my steering wheel. I couldn’t stop thinking about what just happened, what did I just do, and did this really just happen to me? My lungs began to tighten up as I began to cry out of fear. Knowing that my parents were back in Arizona and I was there all alone with no family.…

    Autism Rollercoaster Kelsey, my sister, was born April 1st, 2014. That day was one of the best days of my life because! At the time, I didn’t know that I was going to have more sisters; now I have two sisters (other than Kelsey) Ryan and Nora. Once Kelsey was born, my mom knew that I would be a great big sister (based on the way I treated Kelsey in the hospital). I never knew my life would have changed.…

    Ryne Garrison Suddenly I Became Me Looking back now, it is easy to see that I was a very different sort of kid growing up. I would never tab being different as a bad thing, but normality was never exactly my strong suit. It’s easy for other people to look back on all the goofy, strange things kids do, and casually brush these incidents off with “he’s just being a kid.”…

    Two years ago I was a completely different person. That may sound like a complete exaggeration, but looking back on the person who carried my name two years ago, it is shockingly true. Two years ago, I was the quiet, overweight, anxious girl who avoided social interaction as if it was the plague. Needless to say, I was not the most confident or outgoing person out there. I let my anxiety disorder rule my life, and let my weight be an excuse as to why I couldn’t do certain things.…

    “A handful of moments I wished I could change, but I was carried away,” are the lyrics that remind a lot about myself. Growing up, and even about two years ago, I was insanely shy and did not talk much around people, friends, or family. The way I talked to people was in a timid, soft spoken way, which looking back, was awfully embarrassing. My friends and family would laugh at me because I could not talk well, and when I did talk, they acted as if I were a baby who just said its first words. With all of that nonsense going on, their idiotic response kind of made me not want to say anything anymore.…

    When I’m asked about things that have changed who I am, I immediately think of my friends, and ex friends. Every day, people come and go in our lives and less often, these people are friends. For me, friends are hard to make (and to keep) and I easily lose contact with them. I have few friends who I know are true to me, they have been by my side for years and I know they won’t be leaving anytime soon.…

    I will always remember when my life started to turn around. I continued to make simple changes to my everyday life to help myself get better and better so that I could reach my goals. Without perseverance and the motivation I received from the people that were close to me, I would have never been able to make it to where I am today. All the procrastination I had when I was younger was leading me in the opposite direction then where I wanted to go. Now I’m doing what I love, which is directing and producing movies.…

    Almost everyone will meet, or has met someone in college that has significantly changed their lives. For me, it didn't take long at all for me to meet that person. I met her on our second day of college of our first semester, basically my second day of my entire college career. I didn't realize it right away, but over time I noticed that she was really changing my life. I would have never met this person in high school because first of all she lives in a different town, but even if we did live in the same town, or even went to the same high school, I still would have never known her because I didn't really branch out and make a lot of friends back then.…
