Paul Squeteri's Autobiography
I was born in 1994 to Dawn Mowbray and Paul Squeteri. I was the first child of five. My biological brother, Aaron Mowbray–Squeteri, was born in 1996. Within that same year, my parents filed for divorced. In 1998 my dad married Sheena Yates, who had a 1 year old son, Eugene Booth. In 1999 my dad had another daughter, my half–sister, Yasmyn Squeteri. In 2000 my half–brother, Mark Sweeney, was born to my mom and step–dad, Brian Sweeney. My mom had sole custody of me and my biological brother Aaron. For a period of time, my dad would see us every Wednesday night for dinner and every other weekend.

    Nikki Giovanni Research Paper

    Nikki Giovanni was an African American poet, author, professor, and civil rights activist. She has won over 62 awards for her poetry, books, records, tapes, and CDs including seven NAACP image awards, the Langston Hughes award, and the Gwendolyn Brooks award (Giovanni, “Awards and Honors”). Nikki Giovanni was born on June 7, 1943 in Knoxville, Tennessee, but was raised in Cincinnati, Ohio (Aybar, “Nikki Giovanni”). She would often visit her grandparents, who lived in Knoxville, and they influenced her work greatly by teaching her from a young age to fight injustice (Aybar, “Nikki Giovanni”). Although the majority of Giovanni’s works were written with a militant tone, “Winter Poem” uses nature to express the same ideas she writes about in her other works.…

    Sacco And Vanzetti Essay

    The United States of America, the melting pot, was built on the immigration of millions. People from vast backgrounds traveled to America with the hope of starting over in a new, open, and accepting place. What if, however, this was not the experience they received upon migrating into the US. During the 1920s immigrants from specific areas in the world were not openly received. Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were both Italian immigrants who were treated unjustly for their beliefs. Sacco and Vanzetti were anarchists who were executed for the murder of a paymaster and his guard that took place in Massachusetts in 1927 (“Sacco-Vanzetti Case facts”). During Sacco and Vanzetti’s trial, feelings towards immigrants were negative thus affecting…

    I Am the Cheese Monologue

    I am confused. My name is Adam Farmer and also Paul Delmonte. I witnessed my mother and father murdered which truly makes me the cheese. I’m scared every time I think about them. I don’t want to speak about them but I fear I must to conquer the feelings. I knew my mother didn’t have any friends and my father told me that we had no family. My mother spent most of her time in her room and would have a phone call every Thursday evening and it would last a very long time. I didn’t really know my parents very well. They were mysterious to me. It was as if they were hiding myself from me, if that makes any sense. They used to whisper about me in their bedroom, with the door shut. I heard what they were talking about and I realized that they had been lying to me about my identity. My father almost caught me listening in but luckily he didn’t because I panicked and ran away before he could open the door. (1 minute) I was too scared to confront my parents about what I heard them talking about. I thought about telling Amy, my girlfriend, about how weird my parents are but I was scared of what type of opinion she would make of my family. Amy is someone who doesn’t take life too seriously. I think that she is the opposite of me because she isn’t ever afraid and she doesn’t panic, unlike me. I hate people that try to act like they are really tough, luckily they are usually stupid. There were a group of bullies that tried to take my bike and my package away from me. They weren’t clever enough to figure out that I left my bike with the police and they chased me to the police station where I rested for a while because they wouldn’t dare come near me then. Amy’s mother and my mother are also different as my mum stays home all day and her mum spends most of her time outside her house. I am afraid of a thousand things, a million. Like it is to be claustrophobic and yet fear open spaces too. I panic when I try to call Amy from a telephone booth and every time I come across a dog it…

    Life Event

    My event began years before the actual event occurred. My stepson had been diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder when he was seventeen years old. He was also exhibiting the signs of alcoholism, which ran in the family. His biological father had died from cirrhosis of the liver at the age of thirty seven years old. His mother and I were both recovering addicts, and argued constantly over whether we should use tough love (me) or enable him (her). I was just his stepfather; she was his mother so I would always follow her lead eventually. Over the next thirteen years he abused alcohol and would steal from us or his sisters to get his alcohol, or to drive our cars without permission. He ended up in prison numerous times for violating his probation, so much so he was on a first name basis with the correction officers at the county prison. The event happened on December fourteenth, 2005. I was awakened at five thirty A.M. by the warden of Lancaster County Prison, and notified that my son had committed suicide in his cell at four A.M. by hanging himself. I went into hysterics immediately and handed the phone to my wife who also lost it. I don’t remember much of that day except that it was our sons thirty first birthday, and that he surely wouldn’t have killed himself on this day, but he had.…

    Personal Statement: Growing Up In A Single Parent Home

    Growing up in a single parent home isn’t exactly what you would call easy. It was difficult, but it shaped me into the person I am today, a hardworking independent student with big dreams. My mom went through a lot to raise me and my older sister the “right” way. Her strong influence made her my top role model, the one person I aspire to be like in the future. My father was gone most of my life. From the stories that I’ve heard, he’s not a nice person. My mom never goes much into any topic concerning my father, for the fear that it could damage any possible future relationship between me and him, although I never really felt any connection. When I was six, he was put in jail for armed robbery. I still remember the weekly 15 minute phone calls that would just end if we didn’t say goodbye in time, no extensions. That was before I knew all the things he did.…
