My life went from a carefree child to being a mature and responsible adult within a matter of months, and here is how it all started.

Life was normal as I went to school every day, my dad worked countless hours,and my mother stayed home like so many other women in the community.…

    They say the goal in life is to live the “American Dream” and I would say I am living it head first. It all started when the time in my life came to pick an Univeristy to attend, and boy am I ecstatic with my decision to attend West Virginia University.

    Little bit of Yankee, little bit of Ya’ll. Maybe a catchy t-shirt slogan, but not necessarily untrue. Having lived half my life in both New England and the South, I often feel like a combination of my two home experiences. This can be a little unsettling: up North, I’ve “turned Southern”, but down South, I’m definitely a Northerner. Though sometimes difficult, I’ve grown to like the alternate viewpoints I’ve gained living in different locations.…

    I am proud to be an American. We are given so many rights and freedoms that we would not be able to have if we lived in other countries or territories. However, with the freedoms and rights given to us there are certain responsibilities as well. As John D. Rockefeller says, “Every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity, an obligation, every possession, a duty.”. In my community, my responsibility is to volunteer and to help others.…
