Personal Statement: My Literature Accomplishment
I have always participated in literature related subjects throughout my high school career. I was part the Boca High Slam Poetry Club, a club where students write and perform slam poetry about current topics and issues. As a member, I created and performed my own slam poem. As a result of being a member, I gained hands-on experience in participated in the slam poetry group poem making process. I sharpen my skills in group work and social communications by working with the teachers and peers. Another literature accomplishment that I am proud of is when I won first place in Boca Raton High School’s PTSA Reflections Art Competition Award Of Excellence for work in Literature, a competition that goal is to encourage artistic creativity in the classroom

    Chicka Chika Boom Boom Will There Be Enough Room

    It seems like it has been years since I set foot in my kindergarten classroom. Those were among the hardest years in my life. Before school, I was accustomed to speaking my native languages, Tagalog and Spanish. Hardly knowing much English I soon began to struggle in class trying hard just to sustain with the rest of the pack. I did not understand why certain words went together, why people talked the way they did, why I have to mimic the same hand motions on paper like the others to communicate. Curiosity of the other language continued to haunt me each and every day, that is, until I was transferred to another class. This new teacher was like the candle that lit up my dark room. To this day I still remember Mr. Schall sitting down beside me on the rainbow rug with a book in hand, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. As he read I absorbed each word like a sponge. I soaked up all the secret knowledge confined within the pages. “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom will there be enough room,” he read over and over again. Will there be enough room? I asked myself. I understood the importance and difficulty of earning a great education from that point on I knew that I had to preserve and improve on my literature. Kindergarten was the establishment of my literary knowledge.…

    Personal Narrative: Pursuing Recreational Writing

    Since the early years of my educational background, writing presented itself to me as more of a chore than it did a creative hobby. Throughout the years, many teachers fell short in their attempts to inspire me to truly enjoy writing. These attempts, more of than not, included copious ammounts of academic writing, which perpetually solidified my view that the only way writing could be presented was in the form of a laborious chore. This was, of course,…

    Chosen Career Field

    As a child, I always found myself participating in creative activities. My siblings and I were always playing make believe from acting as if we were in college or grown up to running up and down our neighborhood’s sidewalks as secret spies on a mission to save the world! When I was first introduced to writing short stories in grade school, I became hooked because I could literally depict any image I wanted to and that sparked my 7 year old brain. There were always movies playing in my head; it was crucial to me to produce those visions. Now, as a senior in high school, I have become partial to not only writing fictional narratives but non-fiction narratives as well. I have applied and been accepted to Clark Atlanta University…

    Honors Personal Statement

    As a high school senior I sat in my room trying to decide my future in a day among dozens of college pamphlets. Somewhere at the bottom of all of those brochures was one for Motlow State Community College. Not only was it at the bottom of my pile, but it was completely outside of my radar at the time. Now, so many months later, I am sitting in a room on the Motlow campus typing this. I never once imagined myself here. Nevertheless, attending this school and joining the honors program was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. Going on outings with other members of the honors program allowed me to get to know my peers, and in turn allowed me to become more confident in both my verbal and social skills. This will impact my future tremendously…

    My Journey To My Accomplishments Analysis

    My first goal was to obtain my general Equivalency Diploma (GED) with the intentions of later attending college. It took me longer to achieve my goals, since I have had many personal obstacles in my way. At the age of 17, I became a married teenage single mother of a one month old baby. I did not have much of a family so I had to take care of my child on my own. My family was not the type to go to for help because they would take from someone leaving them helpless. Looking in the mirror one day after being knocked down for not cooking dinner, made me look into my soul through my eyes; I decided enduring a life with so much Domestic Violence that it was not for me.…

    My Writing Experience

    Writing has not always been a strong suit of mine. Even in the present moment I sometimes struggle with writing. I have done numerous papers, ranging from daily journals to argumentative essays. I will admit that the older I grew I realized that writing helps in many ways. It can be a form of stress relieving, which I sometimes take into consideration when I have sort of a lot going on mentally. Many writing assignments were about what I liked to do hobby-wise, what my plans were for the future career/ school-wise, how I felt about certain discussed subjects nationwide such as the election of a black president, the rights for gay marriage, as well as oversea discussions, like the human trafficking in Thailand.…
