Change A major event that has changed me as a person is my friends. I have a lot of friends and some of them I am very close with. It wasn't always like this though I used to only have one best friend and his name was drake. I was unable to make new friends around 5th and 6th grade because I was too shy and not comfortable. Now In my junior year in high school, I feel like I have never been so involved with my friends and have so many to hang out with. I started hanging out with Drake in 4th grade. I got to know Drake though basketball and school where we would always be talking to each other making funny jokes and creating comic books. In basketball, we were always on the same team and we would travel with each other to every game. I would go to his house probably a few times a month and we would just hang out in his basement playing Wii, or …show more content…
This time I was doing mostly everything with Sam, Mason, Steffen, and Adam. Steffen and Sam were already pretty close to me in 7th grade so not much changed there just beside the fact I met Mason because Sam was friends with him. I then met Adam through track and Steffen was best friends with him. In 8th grade, I just remember going to Sam’s house a lot with these guys and always playing basketball or Xbox. Then in about 9th grade I started to hang out with Steffen and Adam a lot while still being good friends with Sam and mason. I would go to Adam's house with Steffen and we would order pizza and watch movies. Then once 10th grade came around things switched up again. We started to hang out a lot with Chandler, he is Sam’s cousin. This new group was Sam, Mason, Chandler, Adam, and Steffen. We did something every weekend no matter if that was just driving around or going to each other's houses playing Xbox. This group has continued all the way up until now and we still continue to do something with everybody just about every
Everyone has a special event that determines our life journey. This event can give us identity, happiness or even pain and sadness. The special event that changed my life was deciding to play basketball because basketball helped me find peace, happiness and gave me identity. When I was ten years old my grandfather succumbed to cancer. His death created hatred inside of me.
A person does not experience many events that shape their life in a large way, whether it be for better or worse. I have had just one major situation that has sculpted me into the person that I am today. In February of 2008, I was diagnosed with a life changing disease; it would relieve me of the agony I had been experiencing for as long as I could remember, but also restrict my diet for the rest of my life.

There are various changes that can occur in an individual’s life. Some variations are very little and would not affect your lifecycle very greatly. Nevertheless, other events could be very significant and could change a person’s entire life, such as marrying, giving birth to the baby, or losing someone special. The important event that transformed my life is coming to the United States of America to get education and to study. When I first arrived in this country, I comprehended that an incredible change would happen in my life both mentally and physically. After living more than one year in the United States, I definitely believe that moving to the United States is an advantageous change for me. This change offers me an opportunity to live a healthy lifestyle as well as a new way of thinking that are significant for me and the most importantly it provided me a better education in a simple way.
Identity-“Ones personal qualities.”Identiy is something only he or she can fully define. My uncle says I am affectionate,cheerful, and calm. My grandmother sees me as slim, pretty and sweet. My dad described me as perky, cheerful and happy, my mom says beautiful, gentle, and self-conscious. These adjectives describe me accurately, yet they are only abstract versions of me. Adjectives cannot begin to describe me and I aknowlege these descriptions for what they are, a condensed translation from my outward self to the world. It is impossible for anyone to understand me completely because nobody has experienced the things I have. My mother has never cherished a raggedy doll named Katie and my father never spent hours upon hours making collages and scrap books for his future children. My uncle never hid in the back of a pick-up-truck and traveled four hours to New York and my grandmother has never walked hours in the rain looking for the Queen of England. My identity is something only I can define.
i didn 't feel like my myself as the weeks went by. i noticed a change, as in how they both acted whenever i was around. at anytime i would enter the classroom for music and one of them would be leaving i would put my head down. also, if i spotted them at lunch, they would roll their eyes and laugh. i noticed my attitude towards them changing because of it. i would wonder why things ended up so badly. it was as if this time i was a completely different person. the day came that my mom spoke to me and said, “dwelling on a situation won 't make anything better, what you have to do is move on” .ever since that day, it made me realize that my biggest mistake was letting friendship get to me. it impacted me so much, to the point where my attitude changed completely and the way i was acting towards others changed. i noticed that i wouldn’t smile as much as i used to, or even talk that much. in fact, i tried so hard to avoid several because i didn’t want to believe things had changed. nonetheless, the day came where something finally snapped and made me realize that i had to move on from the
Another influential incident in my life is going to FCHS. Going to FCHS also caused me to lose some of my friends. Even though I lost those friends, I made many friends who are really nice. I also learned alot about who my real friends are.
Another change I have gone through this year is a social change. When I moved back to Sartell, of course I was going to have to make new friends. Because I lived in Sartell before, I could have kept my old friends, or make new friends. I decided I was going to make new friends. Before I left, I didn't like my friends. I didn't like to be around them, they were toxic friends. I would always be the one to make plans, I would always be the one who would pay for their stuff, and I didn't like it. So when I came back, I wanted new
Although change can be formidable for many people, alteration can ameliorate a person’s life. Therefore, it can make a person stronger and can lead a person to triumph.
Around the time when I was 10 or 11 my friends invited me to come stay at their grandpa’s house in the country with them for a night. One was my younger friend Ethan, who was a year younger than I was and his sister Ashlyn who was a couple years older. It took a bit of convincing but I eventually managed to sway my mom into letting me go. The drive there was relatively boring.

There is a point in everyone’s life when they step back and realize “I can’t do this anymore, it’s ruining my life”. Many of my friends have started smoking cigarettes while drinking at a very young age, and continue to use this drug currently and don’t realize the affect it has on their future. While I have been smart enough to avoid smoking, I haven’t been as wise at making decisions when it comes to drinking. The amount of partying I’ve done in college has taken over my life, and has had a huge impact on my grades. Changing my drinking habits and continuing to avoid cigarettes will enable me to be the best I can be for the rest of my college experience.
Many years ago when I was a freshman in high school, an event happened to me that changed my life for the better. My friend invited me to go hiking with him and his sister. He was going to go hiking in Yosemite. The following day I prepared myself mentally and physically in order to accomplish this hike.
Many changes for the good and some were bad but, there were some learning experiences that help make me a better person. The events in my life, was dealing with the Birth and The Death of my first daughter.
The end of my second year of high school was an extremely significant moment in my life. I had realized that some of the girls that I swore were going to be my bridesmaids one day, were never actually there when I needed them to be. It became more evident as the years went on, who was there when it was convenient and who was there when I was not as
