In the fourth grade, I was shy, and I didn’t really have friends. But I had a close friend, Kevin. Through the start of the fourth grade it seemed Kevin started to drift away from my to start to talk to others. Everyday I would see Kevin with these boys he met the day before school started. I kind of forced myself in. I know I shouldn’t have done that but I wanted to be more sociable. I would walk with Kevin and his new friends everyday, to me it seemed they were pushing me away so they couldn’t…

I was an only child for 15 years, this made me sheltered; I was overprotected and didn’t feel as if I could do things for myself. My parents always meant well for me, but growing up I had a lot of insecurities. Some of them I’m still trying to resolve by learning about myself. During my childhood I didn’t learn to ride a bike or swim. I always saw that as a part of being a kid like it’s something you accomplish and carry with you. It wasn’t important to them, I didn’t have friends to bike with, nor…

This moment started the process that gradually altered my mental state, for the better or worse is up to you to decide. My parents arranged…

I woke up and rubbed my eyes to the sight of an unfamiliar scenery. The weather was cool and the smell around me made me feel unsettled. After being picked up at the bust stop by my aunt, she drove us to her small apartment where we would live for the next few months. I wanted to be home; I wanted the familiar scent of home to surround me one more time. I was no longer home, I now was in U.S. grounds where the memory of home would wash away with the new hardships I would have to face. I was six years…

The last piece of constructive criticism I got was from the PA which I shadowed,couple of moths ago.She pointed out at my weakness when I asked her to give me a feed back.Her point was that when I'm with the patient I try to be there completely.For example,when we were in emergency room,a patient wanted to call his wife and nurse could not provide the phone right away,as she had other preferences at that moment.So I started to insist my PA,whether he can call from my phone,as it's a matter of one…

Growing up, I learned that my dad had a knack for figuring out other’s emotions. Once he realized someone wasn’t acting the same, he would quickly leap in with a headstrong attitude and charming smile, ready to make them laugh and feel better. He had a great sense of humor, with a slightly quirky way of seeing things, which led to very hilarious ideas. My father would get a twinkle in his green eyes, thinking of possible jokes he could say to lighten up the mood. He never once stopped to think about…

Nope. I have stopped by his office at least three times. The first time, I asked him if there was anything he needed, which was a "No." The second time, I sat down in his office and discussed what I saw at Clermont and that I wanted him to look into securing and preparing the traffic trailers for winter. This would include some kind of coupler lock and something so that the tires do not sink. After this conversation, I asked him if there was anything else he would like to discuss and the answer…

Have you ever thought you were phenomenal at something, only to discover you actually suck at it when a friend or family member (once they decide to be honest) tells you otherwise? Or even worse, after you show your "talent" to tons of people? If so, you and I actually have something in common. All my life up to December of 2014 I thought I had a great singing voice. I loved to sing in the shower, sing in my closet, basically sing anywhere but in front of people. I always enjoyed singing…

Many people say how much they miss the good days back in elementary school: back when nothing mattered, except making friends and having fun. I loved those times, for the most part; except for it was the worst summer I can remember: the summer of 2007. My neighbor and I would play games in the backyard on my playset: grounders, tag, and even hide-and-seek; those were fun in all, but one day, we decided to be daring. I had a slide which was about four to five feet high at its peak. We chose to…

During my freshman year of high school, I was diagnosed with a concussion. The symptoms lasted over two years. During these two years, I saw an abundance of doctors, physical therapists, specialists, and a chiropractor. I tried various and multiple medications before finding one that works almost two years later. But it does not get rid of head aches completely, it only lessens the pain. Physical therapy helped me tremendously. My headaches stem from my neck and jaw muscles. My physical therapists…
