Hit Him Again

When I initially read this essay prompt, I figured it would be a simple task to answer it effectively. I mean, what could be easier than writing about yourself, right? However, as I contemplated what my answer would be, I realized that it is not quite as simple as I had first thought. There are many aspects of “who” a person is.

The Jeep car is important to me because it was the first car that I grew fond of, at the age of six. That’s when everything changed and I finally knew what I wanted to become when I grow up, an automotive mechanic. Now currently I am in the automotive shop at PCTI and learning to be the best of the best. Basically, everyone that knows me, are aware that I’m in love with cars and no one can change my mind about it. I’m also very known for my tallness, which i used in my everyday life to help…

The book I read was Million Dollar Throw by Mike Lupica. This book shows many different struggles Nate and Abby go through leading up to a throw that could change both of their lives completely. I learned that no matter how difficult a situation is, always think about the good and never give up on anything. Nate and his family, and eventually Abby’s are in some very tough battles with money. Throughout the book, this creates Abby’s and Nate’s bond even tighter by learning more about each other.…

When an true epiphany hits it's never a quiet or subtle event, it strikes you like an elephant falling through the ceiling. Surprising in its action, and befuddling in its reason. Its a very rare occurrence and should never be taken lightly or dismissed without pondering it for what it is. Spiritual folk will see it as a sign from on high. Less attuned people will view it as luck or serendipity. Whichever school of thought one hails from, the end result is the same, the presentation of a life…

On late Friday morning, Mr. Johnson left his house and talked to his neighbor Edward Nygma who had recently lost his wife in a car accident. “Good morning Edward,” Mr. Johnson said, “how are you doing today?” “I’m doing ok, I guess.” Edward replied, “just a little tired.” “Well here’s some cash to go buy yourself something nice today,” Mr. Johnson said Mr. Johnson then walked down the street a couple of blocks through the busy crowd. When he bumps into a…

would have as few as 10 volunteers and others, typically weekends, could see as many as 200 plus come through the door. Local residents seeking assistance would come in at their convenience throughout the day, at least 15 new applicants per day and referrals continued on a constant basis. I learned a lot about managing people during my time with habitat. My second day I was tasked with answering phone calls on the organizations behalf with little guidance as to what to say or what assistances…

I was employed at a large facility that required that every individual within the facility work together to strive to make sure that the patients and customers of the facility left the facility knowing that they had been well taken care of, to the best of everyone’s ability. I was employed as an Administrative Assistant I in the Supply Chain Management Department in the Shipping and Receiving Department at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. My job was to ensure that orders and…

After Ben’s reserves are used, water becomes a vital need for the Braggs. Randy remembers the water connected to the Henry’s home is “Artesian water, unlimited!” (Frank 147). With the cooperation of the Henry household, water is connected to the entire River Road development removing barriers and forming a new community (Frank 150). Without the generosity and help of the Henry family, the Braggs could easily have died without water. These neighborhoods which came with barriers of separation…

Sweet, faithful and loving are only a few things that describe Misty. She is a four-year-old german shepherd. Misty is the sweetest, but most protective dog out there, at least in my eyes, of course. She definitely is one of a kind and a spoiled rotten fur baby. You are probably wondering how Misty came in to my life. I remember it clearly, as if it had happened just yesterday. It was a cold, windy December night. My friend showed up at my house, I grabbed my coat and went outside to meet her.…
