Kaitlyn Stevens Mr. Scott Reed ENGL 0003.001 19 July 2011 Overcoming my distractions Throughout my years of education, I have had to overcome many obstacles. I have found a few distractions along the way that led to me getting off track. What has distracted me in my college nursing experience is having too much homework at one time and not being able to manage my time well enough. On top of all my homework, I also had to learn to manage my athletics in with getting my work done on time. After all my homework and cheer activities are completed, my personal entertainment was also a big challenge for me to overcome.
He suffered from a bursa on his kneecap which is very painful from his knee hitting the mat constantly. He would also go and fail English 11 due to a corrupted teacher and so called plagiarized decades project. He went to summer school and passed the test telling what needed to learn the first week. There wasn’t anything he really needed to learn so they just gave him extra work so the money he paid wouldn’t be wasted. He also kept up with his exercising daily along with doctor appointments for his left
I strived to succeed, so when I didn’t do my best I would get very upset with myself and try harder until I was the best. I hate the feeling of failure especially when I knew that I had tried my very hardest. My parents always told me try your hardest or don’t try at all, so anytime I lost at something I felt like I was letting them down. Like I said before the best feeling in the world is when your parents show pride in you, well how awesome that feels is coinciding with how horrible it feels when they are upset with me. Through the years I have learned what I am good at and what I don’t excel in.
Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany, in 1770 to Johann van Beethoven and Magdalena Keverich van Beethoven. He was baptized on December 17, 1770. When Beethoven was young, he started taking music lessons from his father, who was a musician in the court of Bonn. Beethoven was exceptionally good even as a child. In 1787 he visited Vienna where he performed and met many famous musicians including Mozart.
They were also far too long for the students to complete. Teachers teach because they adore children, changing their lives, and creating amazing people. They have been stripped of that. Jessica, a teacher, says that she cannot imagine doing it this way (Common Core) another 20 years. She says, “It’s hard to rest my head on a pillow at night, and feel good about what we are doing to these kids.” These personal stories show that education, which is supposed to benefit students, is only hurting them tremendously, because it is not beneficial to the teachers in the first
essGrowing up with my older autistic brother Jourdain has opened my eyes in many different ways. Our mother said that when Jourdain was diagnosed at the age of 3 years old she was told to institutionalize him because he was would not ever be able to function normally. I am so glad that mom did not listen to the professionals because Jourdain drives me daily to strive hard to be a productive member of society. Knowing him and seeing a smile on his face daily is my constant motivation. Even though my brother has a disability, he is hard working and excels in school and works hard at everything he does and like most little sisters I often fine myself following in his footsteps and trying my best in all my endeavors, I have seen him turn the impossible
Becoming a CNA was easy for Daphne, but the career had its disadvantages. When after one year as a CNA, in a nursing home, she was accused of an act she did not commit. With an abuse offense behind her license, she was terminated and had to find another job. Always being written up for the negative things that take place on the job is another obstacle Daphne faced. Daphne had been written up and reported several times for having to leave the job to get to her kids for whatever reasons.
My family started seeing symptoms a few weeks ago, not that I thought anything of it. They told me I kept blinking my eyes, over and over again, more than the average person would blink their eyes. I also had these random outbursts of shaking uncontrollably, but I always thought maybe I was hungry, or cold or something along those lines. I went through all of these symptoms to just find out the worst of it. When I told the doctor my symptoms, he did some research.
It seems like he has already tried everything but nothing works out for him. His father gives him a piano, hoping that his son will learn how to play it. At the same time he hopefully will be good at it. It is obvious that his father is frustrated because the son can not do anything good enough. “But there must be something you can do, my father would sigh...” (P.1, L.13) and “Everybody can do something” (P.1, L. 14).
My approach to how I “read” the medium of Classical Music? I have been a fan of classical music since my early twenty’s where I discovered its magical supremacy while pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree at Warner Pacific College in the early 80’s. I was first introduced to classical music by a classmate who told me “it would help me study.” To my surprise he was right! Quite amazing considered my nickname given by fellow team members on the WPC basketball team was “disco.” I have continued to enjoy the brilliance and wonderful ability of classical music to calm my mind, allowing for clear thoughts to arise. As I listen to Symphony No.
