Once, I was given the task to pass out breakfast trays and to help the patients if they needed their cereal bowl opened or a banana to be peeled. Seeing how helpless patients were made me feel eager to assist them. It wasn’t easy at first. I am a shy and quiet person; to step out of my comfort zone is an adrenaline…
When I was 10 years old I was just an ordinary little girl who loved to climb trees, play with cars, play soccer, and pretend to be a lawyer or a doctor. I was pretty much a happy, innocent child whose life was surrounded by play. However, at the age 11 there was an important transition in my life– I entered middle school.

moved to a new school, with new people, and new teachers. On the day we had to get me ready for the school. I woke up late due to not being used to schedule. “Ugh” I grunted. I stubbled down stairs where I grabbed my breakfast. Starting at the soggy mess that was supposed to be cereal I complained ”Do I really have too eat this mess?” My dad gave me the look that everyone knows means “you better”. With no other choice I shoved the soggy mess in my mouth. Even though I knew I had no…
