My Most Important Accomplishments

Getting into the certified nurses aid program at Cleburne High School was a huge accomplishment to me and an even bigger blessing. Getting accepted into the CNA program was so important to me because it is going to help me so much with what I wanna be when I graduate. My parents are both so proud of me for this. It is great because it's free and everything is paid for and if I were to go to college to get my licence it would cost thousands of dollar, so that is another reason why this is one of my bigger accomplishment. I am blessed to have had this opportunity.
One of my other accomplishment would be getting my best times in cross country this year, and running my 400m under 70 seconds last year. Running really isn’t that hard I think it mostly has to do with your mentality on whether or not you can do it. When I'm running 2 miles in 90 degree weather, it's hard to keep going but you tell yourself that you can, so you do. While running the 400 in a meet you feel like you're going to fall because you can't feel your legs on the last 100.

I am proud to say that I have stayed true to who I really am in a world where everyone is trying to change who you really are. I have lost almost all of my friends but I am happy about that because it has made it easy to realise who my true friends are. Everyone says that I am changing but really I am just not doing what everyone what me to do. I am being myself in a world where you are constantly being told how to act, what to wear, and who to be friends with. And I think it's an accomplishment, one of the most immense accomplishments that you can with hold in the culture that we live

    The one accomplishment that marked my transition from being a child into becoming an adult would have to be when I got my first job at Culver’s. This accomplishment was a major milestone in my life which lead to many other great things to follow it. After applying to many different places I finally got a call back from Culver’s saying that they would like to have me come in to have an interview with me. At first I was a nervous wreck, but with the help of some really good friends with some good tips on how to dress, talk, and answer some of their tougher questions. I really appreciated their help and if it weren't for them I probably wouldn't have got the job.…

    One accomplishment that took a great deal of effort was lacrosse. Right from the start of freshman year, I knew that I wanted to become a good lacrosse player, enough to make an impact on the game. I did numerous clinics and leagues for two years straight, I worked as hard as I possibly could to become the player I wanted to be. Throughout my training, there were times where I felt like I was never going to be as good as I longed to be, but my family and my coach motivated me to work through because they felt that the hard work would be worth it. Whenever I was feeling like this, I would always turn to them because they reminded me of how hard I worked and how great I would feel once I felt the reward.…
