As we get older we find more and more joy in our memories. We become grateful for how the simplest and smallest things made us so happy and fill us with such happiness and leave us with smiles on our faces. As we get older we often wish those times hadn’t gone by so fast and that school, work and life were that simple and so laid back again. Though most of us like thinking of the past, we have to simply take a look back in time and leave it there, in the past, so we can experience new things and have new memories to look back on in the future. This chapter is about my look back into the past.

I remember I made the super fitness field day team in PE, which was fun. I also remember really struggling with my math teacher, Mrs. Freeman and I remember making good friends with a new girl who just arrived named Eliza. Eliza, my friend Dylan and I made a “notebook” in math and we would take a page in this notebook and take turns starting to draw a picture each day and we would draw something and pass the notebook to each other and that person would add on to the picture the person before them drew until the page was full. That notebook meant a lot to me, I still have it actually. I also remember having an awesome history teacher named Mr. Suttle, he would bring his guitar in and sing to us and claimed he was in a band and really taught us lots of history and allowed us to listen to music from the time period we were studying and videos about the culture and traditions of that time period. Every day I would come home and tell my mom awesome history stories from class and tons of facts she could honestly care less about. I also remember having a reading teacher whose daughters were in the same grade as me and at the same time her husband was the coach for the football team here. His name was Mr. Bennett and her name was Mrs. Bennett. I remember that after first semester, her and her husband moved to Florida where he got a football coaching position at a college but they liked it in Florida because that’s where they were originally from anyway. There was my language arts teacher and homeroom teacher Mrs. Starling. Mrs. Starling is an amazing teacher and I actually already knew her because her son Erick Starling, whom you might know and I had been in the same grade and school since primary school. Mrs. Starling loves me to death and I love her, she was like a second mother to me. As a teacher I remember her reading The Giver to us and making a terrarium in a two liter bottle in her class. My favorite memories were watching school

    As I mentioned in the previous assignment, I want to increase my baseline 500 steps each week so that by the end of the semester I am recording 10,000 steps which is in the active range. I will continue walking around the property at work and stepping in place whenever I possibly can. I will stick to walking to the mailbox which is two blocks from home as opposed to driving up to it on my way home. If I have days where I am tired I will just give myself another pep talk. I have a pretty good support system thus far so I will lean on them if pushing myself on my own does not cut it.…

    My experiences over the last six years living in NYC have shaped me into the approachable and compassionate person I am today. I have been immersed in a melting pot with many different culturally and economically diverse populations. These unique experiences have broadened my horizons and allowed me to gain valuable communication skills and the ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I searched out opportunities to give back and help the people in my community both in volunteering in hospitals, educating high school students, and interning in private practices. I even traveled with the organization Medlife, setting up a medical clinic to provide basic medical care and education to people in the poor and underserved communities surrounding Lima, Peru.…

    Everyone probably has at least one fond memory of their middle school years. My best memories are all of the great teachers I have had, all of the friends I’ve made over the years, and all of the fun things we’ve done in this school.
