I did not want this to hinder my dream of going to university and following the career path that I have wanted for so long. I was determined to find a solution that suited my life and everyone in it, even though the odds were heavily stacked against me, and it seemed home study was the best option for me. After much research I came across the Distance Learning Centre (DLC). The DLC was able to offer me the possibility of gaining the qualification I needed and I could achieve this all whilst being at home. I would be able to study at my own pace, have regular tutor support, the offer of a monthly payment plan and the most important
My father was left with 4 children to take care of all by him, I had to realize that he didn’t have help anymore that he had to be the mother and father of the house and the things I was doing was just adding on to the stress from my mother passing away. So then I asked myself the most life changing questions that I have ever asked myself what would my mother want?, what do I really want out of life? This caused me to go to school do all my work and even start communicating with my family and friends again. Then I realized that I really enjoy learning new things and advancing intellectually. I can say that my worst fear is being a failure Being a grown man wishing I finished high school or college, stressed out trying to figure how I’m about to pay my rent for next month and not being able to provide and help my family when they really need it.
I always wanted to go to workwith him. I never thought about going to work just to make a living, but it did make it a little clearer for me to understand. My father would let me know that I will be out on my own one day, and in order to live life comfortably I will have to work to earn a living. I now realize what Russell Baker meant in his quote “go to work and make a living.” There are so many children out there that are clueless about work in America. Most don’t understand what their parents work for.
It not only changes our view on Addie, but our view on the novel as a whole. Addie's voice is imparative to the reader's outlook and while we can sense it through the voices of others, her chapter best sums up her mind. So, what if Addie's chapter did not exsist? For one, we would never have comprehended her mind and the way it twists around things like how she feels about her children and husband. We would have all thought of her as still the same loving mother who watches her son, Cash, methodically build her coffin not because she is ready and wanting soon to be in it, but because he is her son and she loves to see him work.
Even though Rex knew that the odds of the glass castle ever being built were slim, he continuously gave his family belief that it would one day soon be built. In the end of the book, as Rex and Jeannette share their last words together, Rex says to her; "Never did build that Glass Castle"(279), Jeannette replied by saying; "No. But we had fun planning it"(279). Although their "perfect" life wasn't met by their father building them the glass castle, it gave them the hope to achieve a better
I am seeking admission into the degree completion program for many reasons. I am currently a stayathome mom so it’s very important for me to achieve my goals, not only for myself but for my children as well. I am eager to further my education and set a good example for my kids. I have always had a strong interest in the criminal justice field. I would like to work as a crime scene investigator or a detective.
When I was a kid I used to live with my mother and my grandparents, I grew up without knowing my father, but I was happy because my grandparents always bought me everything I wanted, at that time I was the only child at home. Later my Mom got married, and I had two brothers. I learned how to share my toys with them, and I got a stepfather who taught me many good things because he is a good and hard working man. My Mom is lucky. Before I finished the high school, I started to work for a big tools company as a salesman helper (where I learned many new things).
I don’t really think about it. But I really appreciate and admire my Mom because she made a choice, a conscious choice to stay home from her career and make homemaking her career. It wasn’t like she had to or was forced into it by my Dad. She had a college degree and a good job, but she chose to be the very best at what she did! • Would you change anything about your childhood that your Mom or Dad did or didn’t do?
I want to be in a big house be able to by my kids anything they want and not having to depend on anyone. My long term goal is to also be in the NBA if not I just want to have a good job. I also want my mom to be proud of me for what the good things I accomplish. I also want to be able to see my dad and be with cause I never really get to see him. That’s my long term goal to have a good paying job with a happy
Aging with Dignity Angela Starnes Psyc 210 12/13/2013 Aging in its self brings on a lot of emotions and questions to be answered. But I never want my aging responsibilities to be a burden on any of my family.
