Personal Narrative: Fallin For SDT

Decent Essays
Hello,

This week has sucked. I broke down crying at work last night because I can not keep taking time off or else they will fire me. I continuously take Saturday nights off because my boyfriend lives three hours away and I want to visit him and he does not want to sit in my dorm room for 8 hours while I work. Finally I called him and told him he was just going to have to deal with it or meet up with some friends that he has in Queens. That was clearly the hardest part of my week. The easiest part had to have been the Fallin for SDT. It was an event that SDT put on this evening and I managed to meet a few girls that had similar interests! We are also nursing majors. The last class was helpful because open planning is coming up soon and I have

    The pain began slowly, pricking me with its sharp needles only while doing barre in ballet once a week. I ignored it, believing it to be normal, common discomfort that would soon go away, typical thoughts of a dancer whose entire sport is centered around “good pain”. Six months later, it had escalated to the degree that every step I took felt like an arrow to my knee. Dancing had become impossible, and it was determined that I should be taken to the orthopedist. The bland, brown and beige lobby became extraordinarily familiar as I waited two hours to be examined.…

    As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View.…

    A few years ago, I have decided to go to my health professional and have my numbers checked. Although my numbers still fall in the "normal" range, they're still low for someone my age. If my memory serves me right, it was around 260 or so. I knew that something has to be done, my low testosterone level doesn't only affect my sexual life, but my life in general. I always feel tired, anxious, and unsatisfied of my body.…

I did not have anything that I was truly passionate about but when I began playing volleyball, I discovered it and I fell in love with the intensity that came when I touched a volleyball.…

    The Model T shook America. A rattling beast compiled of steel, glass, and the American Dream, this pioneer vehicle paved the way for car production as we know it. We all start out as that Model T, made of the same materials, but working towards individuality. As we grow, our car remodels; the Model T turns into the Model A, and before we know it, we’re a Ford Flex zooming along the interstate. Though exteriors evolve, technology improves, and destinations change, all cars maintain a common aspect: our engine.…

    A leader is needed to guide those whose voices and/or actions are not as boisterous, in the pursuit of common good. That common good is shown through service for others, doing what is right despite the temporary physical toll. I hold dear to those principles and plan to embody selflessness throughout my life. Of my many activities, I believe my work through SSaLT (Student Services and Leadership Team) exemplifies selflessness the best. With my other volunteer groups being large in number, my club allows me have a more intimate interaction with others since it is smaller.…
