Fayetteville

I was born in the wrong century; a combination of an imperfect school education and broad parents produced a curious child who dreamed of many different occupations. Growing up in Fayetteville, North Carolina, I’ve seen interests and talents splattered across the entire state. There were Spring Lake Middle School sport coaches who researched different exercises for training players, cross country runners who dabbled in cancer research, and many more occupations. Thus, these people influenced my upbringing; and always pushed me to follow my dreams and to never give up. They see me at my low and always pushed me to my highest point. From these inspirations, I’ve crafted my future to be an anesthesiologist. One where I could play a variety of roles and play them well. My future always seemed so far away but yet so close thus I had a myriad of dreams. I was born in the wrong century; a century I never…

I was born in the town, Fayetteville in North Carolina. Fayetteville is a small town that had a Wall-Mart, The Waffle House, Bojangles, and a Ruby Tuesday. If, you were to drive by and blink, you would have missed it. I went to church every Sunday like a good Catholic and I also went to a Catholic private school. Church and school constantly repeated the same message “follow the Ten Commandments.” I grew up in a very a religious environment that ultimately sheltered me from the “real” world. I…

Among all of the school related and community oriented activities I participate in the most significant are Soccer and the Fayetteville Youth Council. Soccer has had such a positive impact on my life. I started playing roughly 9 years ago. After my younger sister, Hailey finished a recreation season she received a trophy. Although it was only for participation, I was envious. My mother told me if I wanted one, I’d have to play the next season and earn it. Maybe a trophy was the reason it began…

I find myself always defending the value of HBCUs in comparison to other schools across the country. A number of people, especially African Americans,…

Toward the end of my junior year in high school at Greene County Tech, my parents set me down and told me we were moving. My mom had just recently graduated from ASU, and with her master’s degree in Public Relations, advertising, and English, she was looking for her dream job. It took months, nearly an entire year, but she eventually found the job she had been looking for. However, it came with a price. My entire family had to move six hours across the state of Arkansas to live in…
