I am very time conscious and make sure that I have everything in control. I always have to get stuff done right away, otherwise I feel like I will never get it done or that I am late doing it. I find myself checking my planner multiple times a day, even when it isn’t needed, to make sure that I am not forgetting to do stuff or write stuff down. Everything I want to accomplish for the day is written in that planner. I am also described by friends and family as being ambitious. Yes, I am lazy sometimes, but when it comes to something that has importance to me I make sure that I do it. My freshman year of college I had to make a choice to either drop out of school to go back home, or find time to work three jobs so I could afford tuition. I’m still here, and I’m still working three jobs which I excel at. My employers always tell me that I am a hard worker and one of the best that they have seen. I will not stop or slow down when I am working unless all of my work is finished, even then I still find more work to do. When it comes to immature people, or people that irritate me I get angry and annoyed really fast. Most of the times I have to just leave the room, but in the heat of the moment I blow up.

She was very religious and made sure that we would grow up to be pleasant people. She values her family and made us be all that we could be. It took my mother years to get a divorce from my father because she knew it would break our family. She was unhappy for ten years until she asked my father for a divorce.

    The Challenge of Dealing With My Mother 's Behavior Since I was a child, I have received considerable affection from my parents. I am not an ungrateful daughter, but actually it makes me feel nervous. Sometimes, it was embarrassing me because my mother, Izabel, did not know the correct time to treat me like her baby, and I dislike when she talks about our intimacy out loud, talking with a different tone of voice, and with a peculiar semblance of proud mother in her face. Another thing that makes me feel bad is how she has an old fashioned attitude; once in a while she judges my behavior, saying that my conduct is not correct for my gender. Finally, she is very bossy when she wants to be, and sometimes I cannot handle it.…
