The Greatest Question

Upon analyzing my weaknesses and strengths as a student my most important traits are procrastination, perseverance, and fast learning. Being a student has helped me understand why having strengths and weaknesses is normal. During my time as a student I have noticed that when I make good use of my time and focus on the task at hand I am a great student. However, if I let my most visible weakness get the best of me I 'm prone to failure. My strengths have shown me that I am not just some simple…

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…

Many Americans heard the call. Many Americas stood tall. All gave some. Some gave all. Sacrifices made by the men and women serving our nation on the frontlines of battlefields around the world and at home earned them the name, “The Greatest Generation”. This name was bestowed upon them for their unrelenting patriotism. I am referring to the men and women of the WW II era who braved dangers and performed deeds to defend the US Constitution and the American way of life. They accepted…

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…

Both nurses stopped what they were doing and looked at him and then at each other confusingly. “What did you just say?” MJ huffed, blowing out steam from his anger that was building up inside and forming enraged from the thought of seeking revenge on the nigga who’d done that to him. “My daughter, Marlorana! I need to know if she is okay, now!” MJ said in a confused and menacing tone. Both nurses looked at each other again and this time the older black lady spoke up. “Honey, from what I read in…

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.
