Personal Narrative: My Ohlone Journey

Improved Essays
Hi Dr. Livie,

Thank you for all your help and the kind words you give me, and I am sure I will enjoy my life at Berkeley.
My Ohlone journey is about to an end and I have my last request that hope you can consider. I saw my grade on Webadvisor earlier this week before the last several Essential Questions and the Final paper’s grade post, I was around 86% at that time and hope to see my final paper’s grade so see whether I can get an A. However, this class is invisible on Canvas since three days ago and I have no chance to review all my grades. I knew exactly that I missed 2-3 discussion questions reply which yields me not in the A range before the final, but I tried very hard on that and write a 10-page paper on my final exam, I also have

    Everyone can say that they always imagined or wanted to look up to someone whether if the person was famous or related to them. Throughout my teenage day I’ve always wanted someone to mentor me and show me things in life that I can one day use in the future years to come. I didn’t want a mentor that was a few years older I always wanted someone that was almost twice my age, maybe even older than me. My mentor that I will be talking about name is James. James and I met at my job throughout my time working there I have worked with many managers.…

    PSEO Reflection Essay

    My grades this past year were and are not indicative of who I am as a student, or as a person in general. My junior year of high school, I decided to do PSEO, thinking it was an easy way to get credits for both high school and college. I did not realize the struggle I was going to have just trying to be accountable for myself during my senior year. My daily schedule consisted of work, soccer, managing the high school boy’s hockey team, volunteer work, spending time with my high school friends and taking college courses. I took the most challenging classes through Anoka-Ramsey Community College, thinking that like high school these would be the best for me.…

    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.…

    In all of the reading that we have done so far this year, I have probably picked up some new words and also learned the meaning to some that I have already heard before. So for my favorite experience was probably writing the 1200 word essay. Even though it was difficult to find ways to continue explaining how being able to read and write affects my life, I kinda liked it. However, I didn't like it because I had to talk about myself and I don't really like doing so. Though I did like that I was writing and telling a story.…

    My experience with the after school book club at Madison Elementary today was an exciting yet my patience was tested by a seven year old little boy named Jose. Today I was excited to see if my group would enjoy the book, “Where the Wild Things Are,” due to the fact everyone agreed they enjoy reading adventure books. Consequently, one of my group members, Jose, had already read the book and watched the movie and let the whole group know it was “boring.” Already bored he instantly lost interest in the book and the group and was making it known by distracting the other group members around him. Usually his partner in crime, Gilbert, agrees with him and goes along with him but this time was different and he ignored his friend because he was actually…

    When I began Energy Express, I thought my role would be improving children's reading skills and helping them cultivate a passion for reading. However, throughout my summer of service I learned that the role of an Energy Express mentor is much greater. To mentor a child is to shape their personality and future, it is to help them grow to love learning and also to love themselves, it is to offer them hope and love since many children in this area struggle within untraditional family structures, and it is to teach them their potential is endless. Therefore, my three goals would be: cultivate a love for readnig through hands-on activities, provide a support, fun, and active enviroment that welcomes and comforts all children, and to build lasting, stable friendships among the children I mentor.…

    I cannot stand another day in my prison. It is not my fault I am here. And now, I must suffer the punishment. It was my accursed father who choose the wrong battle and burdened us forever: him to those stupid mountains to hold up the sky, me to this island that exists nowhere, bedeviled to fall in love with the heroes who wash up on my shores, only to know that they all leave for their true love. And yet, Ogygia is my home.…

    An experience that changed my life was on May 19th, 2014, my brother’s death. It changed my life in a positive and negative way. You would think that death would devastate someone for the rest of their life, but my brother’s death actually changed my life. I’m not saying that his death didn’t have a negative effect on me, but it had more of a positive effect on me than anything. His death made me an introvert, think for myself, and see things differently.…
