When I was little starting at just 4 years old I cheered for my little league football team in my hometown. What town is that? You may ask yourself. Well it's good ole Ocala Florida home of the horses and home of me. Anyways I was the "mascot" and not the typical put on a costume and cheer the team on mascot, but a cheerleader that got to cheer with the big girls and not have to do as much. Sounds like the life, doesn't it? Well honestly it was. I was just as passionate about cheerleading as…

grade will always be one of my memorable year of my life, 8th grade will always be a year to love and remember every moment of my life, and 8th grade will always be a year I’ll never let go. I will never forget those unbelievable times with my friends hanging out during break, playing football and basketball going to school dances during fall, winter, spring, and summer, going to a field trip to Great America during the end of 8th grade year, and most importantly spending my last…

The beginning of Junior year, my second year after I was accepted to the Teaching Academy. We walked to Rio Vista Elementary school to become reading buddies. Preschool caught my eye because I’ve been told they were difficult because of their age and how small their attention span was. The first day we didn’t choose our buddies they decided who they wanted. I was chosen by this girl named Jasymine, she was shy and didn’t talk as much as her classmate did. The second week there was this boy who…

well according to my parents, as I do not remember everything about it. One of the good things was that almost my entire class went to preschool together so we already knew who was who and we already had friends. Another fun thing that happened that year was our school put on a play, the play was about slavery and the underground railroad, and all of us little kids got to be slaves. Believe it or not we did not have a huge role in the play. Kindergarten passed and first and second grade…

Little did I know that three years ago would be my last single, pregnant-free, child-free New Years Eve celebration. Boy am I glad that I got all the fun out in my younger years! Since that time, I got married and pregnant quickly there after, so the past two New Years Eve celebrations were spent quite differently. Some of us lucky few are actually able to obtain babysitters and go out and celebrate like we did before the responsibility of parenting came. I have not been fortunate enough to…

The Story Behind my Learning I am a senior in high school which means I have learned, for 13 years of my life, how to read, write, look for details in a writing, close read, and how to fix my own writing. That seems like a lot, but I know that I still do not know everything about reading and writing. I can’t specifically remember the first time I started to read, however I do remember maybe in first or second grade, copying words over and over again trying to learn how to spell them. Then, I…

ACES Career Fair Reflection I was amazed as I walked into the ACES Career Fair. I knew there would be a lot of businesses at this event, but I was not able to quantify just how many until I walked around. Since I grew up on a grain farm, I have been familiar with many of these companies surrounding me, such as John Deere, AgriGold, and Pioneer. However, before the career fair, I still researched what companies would be present on Handshake, and I formulated a plan to speak with AgriGold, DuPont…
