When the session began, Lisa told me about her recent four-day mini vacation. She watched television, played, and spent time with her sister. At one point, Lisa and her sister were home alone. Lisa said, "We were the only person in the house." I typed her comment on the screen. Lisa spotted her error and corrected it. She should have said, "We were the only people in the house." I reminded her about using singular and plural words correctly in her sentences.

Next, we chatted about a video that she had made with her team. The video was based on "Thriller," Michael Jackson's iconic song. She described elements such as, how the video was created and the role each person had played. Lisa said that her classmates really enjoyed watching it.

Finally,

    She turned towards me and opened her mouth to speak, but shut it quickly, as if deciding that what she was going to say wasn’t correct. She started again, and told me of an event that had occurred the previous night. Brian, a cousin who was seven years older than me at the time, had sneaked out the window last night around 9 p.m., and took the car with him. I was shocked. Brian was my favorite cousin.…

    A.I believe the most challenging aspect of working in protective services would be not letting your career consume you physically and mentally. Knowing that there's such a great need out there and you're not always able to help when you want to,would be the most challenging aspect to me . You wouldn't think that it affects you, but it does. The emotional strain of the job and the desire to want to help everyone can be overwhelming.…

    With change, there are always compromises. You lose your sense of familiarity, and find yourself in a sea of strangeness. With every wave, you are hit by the unfamiliar. However, you soon adapt and find that this raging sea has turned into a flowing river, taking you toward your success.

    The past two weeks I have worked at northshore maternity and national womens community midwives. During my week at northshore it was incredibly busy and understaffed. I also remember thinking at times, where has the midwifery gone? We were so busy rushing around trying to provide safe and quality care to the women, but that fact is I feel we were too busy, with too larger case loads to provide true midwifery care. I cared for many day 1-2 sections, women with large blood losses requiring blood transfusions, a secondary PP and there was a woman with confirmed H1N1 on the ward who was unstable – but HDU wouldn’t allow her to be transferred around, and many other complex situations that really challenged my competence, knowledge and practice reasoning.…

I had no clue what any of the events were, but I caught on very fast because I started training with my cousin, He set the High School record for discus and still has it today. We started to work on throwing shot, and I got very good because we would work on my form for hours and because of that I was the best thrower the whole season.

    I have been through so many experiences that have shaped me into the person I am today. However, there is one experience in particular that moved me in ways I can hardly put into words. My freshman year of high school, I was given the opportunity to join the Klondike FFA Milk Quality Career Development Event team. Studying and competing in this event led me to develop a fighting hunger for winning. Halfway through my first year, I realized that I did not like to lose.…

    The trips were unplanned, as I have traveled to 13 different countries in four continents of the world. At least that was something to brag about after returning home from six years of military service. I would talk about these moments in a heartbeat when topics related to travel surface in conversations. Remembering and reliving those moments brings great fulfillment. Usually, there's a moment in life where I experience home in places I've visited.…

    As a child, I grew up in the rough neighborhoods of Panama City FL, walking home from school you could hear the gun shots, see the weed being distributed from one hand to the other, and grown men walking around with their pants below their waste along with a gun on the side. Being from the south, such things became normal to see on a day to day basis. However, I told myself that if I wanted to be successful I would never give into a lifestyle of that sort. I knew that I had to be better than what I saw on the streets, and eventually an opportunity came for me to do just that. It was an opportunity for me to get away from the violence, the gangs that surround my neighborhood, and the overall hostile environment.…

    “Spaghetti and hydrogen, what do they have in common?” I always remembered the question my physics teacher raised in first physics class in eighth grade. “From the leaves on the trees to the school bus that drives you here”, he continued, “for every matter in the world, there exist certain underlying rules that shape it into what it is, determine how it functions, and thus make it predictable and understandable.” Identifying his conclusion shapes me into a discerning observer. Ever since, I was spurred by an irresistible desire to find out the “underlying rules” that dominate the kaleidoscopic world.…
