Profile Essay Being the oldest of seven, my mom had the responsibility of caring and looking after her siblings. Growing up her mom had left them at a very young age and did not come back for a while. She had to act as a parent to her siblings and also work to help her dad be a single parent to seven kids. They did not get to go on family vacations, camps, or even have a lot of free time to do what they wanted. The only time she could feel free and be like a kid was when she went to school. Growing up she has always dreamt of being a hairdresser and as she got older she made that dream come true. For four years she went to Tri-County Vocational Technical High School where she took classes to become a hairdresser. In 1988 she graduated with a degree in hairdressing where she then pursued her dream job at Flair Cut. Through all the hard work and class she had to go through, she enjoyed the fact that she could finally be herself. She always talks about how much she loves her job. How happy she is to work with her best friend and how amazing her boss is. I can only imagine how it must feel to make people happy and feel so good and beautiful. She tells me how people walk in miserable and walk out after an appointment with the biggest smile on there faces. She told me “clients are almost like …show more content…
Her boss who she loved dearly has become very sick and decided he wanted to hand down the business to her. After lots of thinking and discussing she chose to become the owner of Flair Cut. Always making sure everything was running smoothly and people were happy, her boss made it look a lot easier than it actually was. Owner of a business, seven months pregnant, having a family of your own and finding out someone you looked up to and who was your boss has passed away. My mom was a super woman dealing with it all, but all she seemed to care about was making the people around her
My grandma took the role of a second mother to me and my brothers since mom and dad were often gone working. Grandma's house located only steps away from mine became home to me, since being the middle child often had to be left there. Closing my eyes, I go back in time to those days when walking at a fast firm pace along her side she will talk to me for long hours. A very wise woman who was trying to teach me the purpose of life. How in order to be someone important you first need to know what is it that you want out of life. Once you know what that is, hold on to it with all the strength there is within your soul and fight for it until it's
Out of all those things, I think that taking care of my sisters is the most difficult thing that I do. Our mom passed away a year and half ago and my dad left us 10 years ago and my sisters don’t know who their dad is, so now it is just me that takes care of them. I feed them in the morning and take them to school but then our neighbor picks them up from school and helps them with their homework and makes them dinner and puts them to bed and I feel so guilty that I’m not there for them at night because I have to work so that way I can stay in the work-study program and stay in the SNAP program so that we have food. Then next thing that I find difficult is making sure I only get want we need with the $200 dollars every month. I’ve figured out that at the beginning of the month I take $100 and I go buy what we need then I leave the other $100 for emergencies like if we run out of something or if I forgot something that we needed. (Question
I’m currently enrolled in Montgomery College, located in Maryland. Montgomery College is a community college. Community colleges are different in comparison to four-year universities. I had a choice of either getting a job or going to college. There are many reasons why I choose to go to Montgomery College. I chose to go to college because I want to pursue a degree in Psychology. When choosing a college, there are a lot of decisions to make and you have to choose what’s best in your interest. In today’s society, community colleges take up a lot of the students going to pursue their education. President Obama has proposed to make all community colleges free for all Americans and I agree with this statement. People have different perspectives
My mother was a very well-tempered woman, who kept to herself. Like Suzette, I didn’t know much about my mother’s background, or a lot of the pain and hardship she went through until I was older. This is when I realized why my mother conducted herself the way she did, because of all the pain she had built up inside of her from her past. For example; it was very hard to get my mother to talk during emotional situations, she was always quiet and would just mostly stare at you in silence. My mother was born in Philadelphia on October 3rd, 1966. Diane was the oldest of her four siblings, and if it’s as common as I think older siblings tend to have it harder than the others because they have to set examples, their looked up to as the protectors, and are just assigned a lot of responsibility at a young age.
I had to go back to my country and come back to campus really feel the change I went through during the first year in college. I had to observe and interact with the first years to perceive the similarities between them and my old self, to see how I have changed and the extent to which humans are all alike. We might face the same struggles, but the ways we deal with them vary from person to person. I will try to tell my version of growing up in Lafayette.
My conformed profile is Introvert, iNtuitive, Feeling and Perceiving (INFP). It is not easy to describe myself as I cannot see my person from outside but better still I am the one that knows me very well than anyone else. Based on my conformed type I am going to describe myself as detailed as I can. As I said earlier I have preference for intraverting, intuition, feeling and perceiving. Mostly people with such personality are referred to as “Mediators” and/or “Idealists”. This is true because I am the type that looks for the good in anything or any person no matter how bad it is. Other researchers also refer to the INFPs as “Dreamers” because of their wonder nature; they never stopped being fascinated. Having preference for INFP means that in business, and in school I am calm, reserved and because of that my colleagues
Growing up in Mobile, Alabama as a young girl I had to grow up fast.Taking lots of responsibilities. I always been the middle child on both my mother and father side. Its very difficult dealing with your younger siblings making sure their ok. As I grew older my parents always expected more from me than the rest of my siblings. I always had more to do around the house than the others, I thought it was unfair. One day I went to my parents and asked them why do they put so much pressure on me? Why am I doing everything around the house? They then said back because baby you work well under a lot of pressure in this world its going to be people pressuring you everyday.
The character analysis is easily divided into three parts. Each of these is discussed in detail on this handout. Examining the character from these three perspectives will help you write an exemplary essay.
What comes to mind when you think of a high school? For many of us, something in the ballpark of children sitting behind a desk, writing papers, and listening to teachers talk all day. MC2STEM is not your traditional high school. STEM was created through a public-private partnership among numerous organizations, with the intention of providing students with an integrated curriculum that is informed by real-world experiences. The student body makeup alone proves it not a typically high school as its no larger than 400 students. MC2STEM is a hands-on engaged learning high school that opened its doors in August of 2008 to the Cleveland Metropolitan area and surrounding suburbs. MC2STEM operates on a year-round school calendar in
Imagine a person had a normal life. My mom was that person. She worked at News Center 7 as a reporter which was a job she always wanted, she also had twin daughters. Her life was great. Then one day everything changed. Life had already been hard for my mom; she was the primary caretaker of my grandmother who had been fighting brain and lung cancer for six months. In early 2003, my grandmother had a stroke. Since then my mom took care of her, while taking care of most of our family. Since my grandmother could no longer be the glue that held us together, it had to be my mom. My grandmother lost her b...
Of all IB Learner Profile traits of which IB identifies as important in guiding students to become more “internationally minded”, I believe that I exhibit the Caring Learner Profile trait. People who possess the caring trait should show empathy, compassion and respect. To exemplify caring it means to give service and make a positive difference to the world around us. Whether it is great or slight, caring is the action of showing others that people do care about them.

My mom was a super-mom. She drove carpool, was always apart of every booster club and was the leader of every classroom party that I can remember. She encouraged me to do everything that I wanted to do. She made sure that I got everything I wanted. None of that would have been possible if my dad didnt work. While it felt like he was always gone, he was just doing what he had to do to make sure that my mom and I could live a comfortable life. Of course he took off every chance he could so come watch me at one of my games or help me practice in the back yard. If I didn 't have them I would have nothing. They are the ones who supported all of my decisions and made me feel better about trying new things. Without them I would not be the person I am. Not only would life without my parents would be drastically different but also without my siblings. Like I said before, they were my best friends growing up. I could always count on the being there for me when I was down. Not only did they bring me up when I was down, but they also praised me when I was up. They treated me like I was the greatest thing that has ever walked on God 's green earth. While they would sometimes annoy me with the constant need of attention and feeling like they needed to be involved in every detail of my personal life, I love them more than words will ever
In the day to day life, experiences and connections are made. Many things that occur in one’s life can all stem from their individual personality, but interpreting how one’s personality guides their life presents a difficult challenge. Many actions, quirks, and patterns that a person has are easily noted due to the ability to see it, but the puppeteer behind these habits is an individual’s personality. A certain personality type can affect the perception of certain events and the reactions/feelings to certain outcomes. While one person might see a situation as dreadful, another may see it entirely different. We tend to find ourselves side by side with people we see similarities between due to a parallel in certain traits, but no two individuals are exactly the same based on differences in personality. Success is hinged on many things and one of those things is the development of self-awareness. To know oneself is key to tackling on intimidating tasks and situations, but to also grow in terms of knowledge and synergy. In my attempt to
Hi, my name is Rob Geis and I am currently in grade 12. I have been at County High School for a year now; I joined at the start of 11th grade, and have thoroughly enjoyed myself here.
