Best of My Love

hero is defined as someone who is admired for great acts or fine qualities. George Washington said, “My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her” (Nguyen). Tonia Pennington is a hero because she has done so much for others and means the world to many people. She loves everyone unconditionally, she is always supportive, and will do anything for her family.…

My occupational goals that could pertain to agriculture with becoming a nurse practitioner and equine assisted therapist is to be able to work in an agriculturally based community. Growing up in Greensburg has shown me that a rural work is worth more because you get to know the people you are working with. Nursing does not pertain to agriculture as much as I wish, but being able to work in a community where all are kind is a goal of mine. Working with the agriculture workers would only…

My literacy journey started at the tender age of three. It was implanted into my brain from as long as I could remember that I would not become another statistic on the rough west side streets of Chicago. I would not become a teen mom. I would not become a dropout. I would not become another black child lost in the system or the streets. I grew up in a house where education was key. Literacy started off great for me, I loved everything about it, but that love quickly diminished when thing…

with the belief that I'd never know what it felt like to be loved, so I closed off my heart and made it impenetrable. Believing that if I stayed emotionless I could endure and survive any loss or pain, manipulation. You were warmth and compassion. Something so far set apart from my friends and family. You engulfed me in warmth, shared your personal pains and joys of life with me told me secrets as if we'd been best friends since the beginning of time. It scared the hell out of me. I felt you…

and my siblings by my parents. I’ve made mistakes in regards to who I’ve picked to trust and bring into my life thankfully I’ve learned my lessons and have been blessed to be currently surrounded by individuals that I know I will love and cherish my entire life. I’ve been hurt and betrayed by people I once considered my friends, I have learned the importance of having good honest people surrounding me the hard way. From a rate of 0 to 3 I will be rating the people who are currently part of my…

In my opinion, my desire to be a state thespian officer could be summarized by my childhood girl scout troop’s mantra which was “Wherever you go make it a better place when you leave”. The arts programs over the course of my entire public education have served me well and continues to. This love for theatre has stemmed all the way from 1st grade Annie with my debut role of Kate the orphan to now an over 50 cast of Beauty and the Beast. I believe that the best way I can repay this debt back and…

be a teacher. That is my dream job, and I would like to start following my dream by going to the New Mexico Junior College. I am still in High School, but I am enrolled in Dual Credit Courses and I know that the NMJC is the best option for me. It is close to home, and it has good teachers. Those are some of the reasons why I chose applying for the NMJC. I lived in Mexico the first 14 years of my life, now I am 18. When I was there I used to be part of the bests students in my class. When I came…

My generation has many different views on what it means to be American. Some believe you must be patriotic. Some say you must be willing to do anything for the country. Some think that you have to love this country and that you have to believe America is the best country in the world. Most are influenced by their parents. The truth is, however, is that all it means to be American, is to have an American Citizenship. It’s as simple as that. Everybody by now has heard about the San Francisco…
