It is a very big part of my life and has made me the person that I am today. Music set the mood for any occasion. If it were not for music I am pretty sure that I would not be the person that I am today. I would have a plain ole boring life with no fun new hip music to listen to or talk about. I wouldn’t be able to get up in the mornings dancing to music trying to get ready for work, would not be able to sing along with my kids on the way to school.
I love to take responsibility when people can rely on me; thus whenever I could not accomplish it, I blame it on myself. I realized that I am such a Protector when I got the result by skimming back all the things that I have done for my family and my friends. I am an introverted person because I need my own private time to recharge myself. I do not like going to clubs and bars where there are so many people or the music is too loud. I always need to sit alone with soft music to think about what I have done each day in order to get myself ready to do other things.
“Sometimes normal musical imagery crosses a line and becomes, so to speak pathological, as when a certain fragment of music repeats itself incessantly, sometimes maddeningly, for days on end.”(100). This is called “brain worms” and it is something we all have to deal with at one point or another because of music constantly surrounding us. It does not seem like a big deal, but it is, especially when it
1/22/2010 Charlie Gordon was a mentally challenged adult with a lot of desire to read and write. Everything he ever wanted or desired could have ended if one small thing in his operation to triple his IQ went wrong and that’s why I am against Charlie getting the operation. There are many reasons why he shouldn’t have gotten it, but there are three that stand out the most to me. One is that his life was put in great danger since it’s a brain surgery. Second was that there wasn’t enough research in the particular area, and third was that he will always remember being smart but never get the chance of being smart again.
Author’s Note Writing this book came with a lot of obstacles. I didn’t know what exactly to tell or whether or I would hold things in. I had to tell myself that my goal was to write about book about my life so holding anything in would allow me to fail at what I was supposed to do. This book took time and much thought. I spent several nights without sleep formatting and thinking going through important events that has happened in my life.
The situation was even worse when the places he visited were completely unknown. These feelings were leading to what he described as "black moods" and interrupted sleep. After 6 sessions, things had changed significantly –as well as going out with friends, he reported being able to attend a rock concert; something that just a few weeks previously would have been unimaginable for him. Alison had a problem with people. She found it very difficult to speak to strangers, and even within her own family unit she found it difficult
We have become so removed from considering how we could affect each other that, as the author says, we “wake to ourselves, exhausted, in the late morning as the wind tears off the haze,” (15-16) but our solitude exhausts us. I don’t think anyone wishes to be as alone as they feel but it has become difficult to reach out to someone else because we fear their lack of
Being overweight all my life has definitely been a struggle. I wouldn’t say that it’s always had a negative impact on my life but it has taken me thru a lot of ups and downs. As a kid I was never picked on for being overweight, like most overweight kids often go thru. I can remember a couple incidents of being picked last when it came to any physical activity games. Getting older I went thru a phase where I always wanted to cover up (jacket, big clothes ect), but after that phase I became comfortable in my own skin.
Orlando Montes EOP ESSAY The most difficult challenge I have had to overcome during my life time was not being able to communicate correctly through the written word being able to transfer thoughts from my mind to a piece of paper might sound like a brainless task to most people. This on the other hand is one of the most difficult things I have to overcome whether if I’m texting my girlfriend, writing something for school, or even posting a status on facebook, that is what I find to be a big challenge. Just knowing where to start so I can move along makes my head hurt and I get distracted too easily. But I’m sure soon enough, God can transform me into person with a clear mind. A personal experience that has made a lasting impression on me has to be when I moved out of my parent’s house.
Well as mentioned before I was a single mother so traveling as a flight attendant often my son did not see me much. This was something I could not continue doing for the rest of my life so, I decided to make a career change and this is where I applied at Argosy. My son has always been my automatic push to better myself. I knew that at the beginning of changing careers it was going to be a hard one due to financial hardships. I would work fewer hours at a new job which means less money.
