Everything, Everything!

Question #5 - Think of a time in your life when you felt like you couldn't breathe. What was suffocating you and what saved you?

           A major time in my life where I felt like I couldn't breath was when I was in car accident when I was younger. I was with my parents and my grandmother and we were on our way out of the Wal-Mart parking lot when a man who wasn't paying attention hit the passenger side of the car which is where I was sitting. The door was pretty pushed in and started to panic. I felt as if  everything was closing in on me. I became very distraught and began to lose my breath and begin to cry. If it wasn't for my grandma who is a certified nurse I probably would have passed out and then been hospitalized for an injury like hitting my head on  something. My grandma was able to calm my attack and make me realize I am okay.

College Essay

I haven't written an official college essay but I have written a personal essay for Concordia University about why I would like to attend college there and what factors could have impacted my high school grades and GPA. I mainly wrote about the tragic death of my aunt and how it affected me in and out of school but I also talked about how I changed for the better and became a more serious and hard working student to make up what I missed in the past years of school. I would like to revise it but I had to submit the letter already but in the future I may need the essay for another college application so revising it is the best option for that problem.

Ummm College!!!!!

  • My goals for college would be the graduate and be the first person in my family to hold a college degree and go into the medical field to help people in need.
  • My reasons for going to college are to become more independent on myself and less dependent on my family and friends and also to push myself to my full potential.
  • Expectations for college would be to maintain a good grade in all my classes and also to meet new people and improve my social skills plus my planning skills. I'm nervous about moving away from my family but I'm excited to experience the college life.
  • After college I feel it will be a mess but my plan is to graduate and hopefully move to Florida or somewhere warm and start my crazy adult life.
