It was a sunny summer day back in 2013, August 27th, 2013 to be exact. That was the day I hit the bottom, the day I rebelled, the day it was noticed in me the big change. I remember like it was today, I had just came from a great vacation at the Dominican Republic and everything seemed perfect almost ready to go back to my Junior year of high school, but I was changed. That morning August 27th, 2013, I had no mood to celebrated I was tired and not in the mood of cake or any celebration. I got up went to the bathroom brush my teeth and took a shower and put on my pajamas again so there would 've been more reason for not to take any picture or anything. That same morning, I reminded my family especially my father that I didn 't want any cake …show more content…
Although he agreed he still bought a white and blue, tres leche cake. I wasn 't happy at all but I accepted the cake so he wouldn’t felt bad and told him I wouldn’t be mad for the cake, but that must be it. He didn’t stop and insisted in taking a picture of me with the cake in which case I disagreed. From there and on I made a total change, that is when I would have said I started to act like an actual adolescence and rebel.
Adolescence had just hit me and I became to fall under many of the categories there were for adolescence such as rebellions, lazy, depress, and Isolation. Until the day of my birthday I was not acting as the majority of teenagers, I was just another age child who thought my parents wouldn’t have to deal with all of that change with me, but I turned out to be wrong. After that moment I started to talk

After a while my father didn’t knew what to do other than take my phone away, which he never had done before, and had a talk with me which for me was worthless since I didn’t even cared about anything he had to say. He felt that he couldn’t deal with me anymore and wanted to try to understand me, so he went to a psychologist and schedule an appointment for the both of us to see if there was some way of understanding me. After two sections I started to put some effort from my part and try to change and pass by that phase of adolescence while still been one. I started treating my parents better, behaving better and focusing on being that old

    When it comes to understanding yourself and your personality on a deeper level than normally, you must take personal stories into perspective that have shaped your life while growing up. According to McAdams, “defining oneself through a personal story is an act of psychological and social responsibility” (Engler 2009). Psychological and social responsibility relate to how you act onto actions around you and how you tie society into your viewpoint of the world. In other words, explaining yourself through a story can show several things such as how your emotions played an affect, the type of response you displayed to something that happened, and as well as the lessons you learned through a personal but also social aspect. In addition, McAdams…

    Writing has been my talent since grade school; I couldn’t sing, or dance but I could write, or so I thought. Then, I entered high school and realized that writing required a lot more than it did in middle school. The brisk pace and advanced comprehension skills required for my English three AP course caused my grades to suffer. I have struggled with college level essay writing tremendously, but through hard-work I have been able to write with more ease and finesse than ever before.…

    Everyone hates English class is what I thought before taking English 102. However, that may have been the case before I entered Dr. Byrd’s domain, but after finishing the class I have come to the realization that English class can be greatly resourceful.

During English 102 this year, reading and writing in class helped me expand my writing skills, improved my will to comprehend, and most importantly helped expand my knowledge.…

To be honest, I was terrified of jumping into my fall English 102 class. I felt I was unprepared for a serious college level composition class, and that I would have a strenuous time adjusting to a four-year university. However, as I walk away from my English 102 class I carry the understanding of writing a college level essay, undertaking research and completing a research and argument paper properly, and knowledge to prepare me for my other classes and profession.…
