Thing and Great Friend
A person who has made a huge impact on my life is Colton Kirby. He is a great friend who always has helpful advice for everything. He's the type of friend that is more of a older brother and a great rolemodel. He shows that you can be a teenager but also knows when to get things done and for the most part does it. He's always a fun kid to be around and I trust everything he says. He is a great kid who will do anything for his friends it seems everytime I need somebody to help me out with what ever it is I can always count on him. I have nothing but respect for him he has taught me so much in the short years that I have known him. He gets along with everybody and has few enemies. He knows what to do in every situation and its really easy to look up to him and somewhat follow in his foot steps. He has his head on straight and knows what he needs to do to be succesful in life. Everytime I've felt down or needed a solution for a problem he can answer it or be there to help. He pays it forward and thats the thing I respect him the most about. He will help anybody out if their in trouble and wont ask for anything in return because he feels like he's doing his part in life. It's great to hangout with him because he is down to do anything and be smart about it at the same time. I know that he will make something out of himself and will help others do the same, he is all about helping even if it becomes frusturating at times he wont let anybody down. Everybody that knows him has a great deal of respect for him because of the impact he has or will make on their lives. I dont know how I would of gotten throught most of the things I've been through if he hadn't of helped me throught it. He's a great friend and hero and I'm glad that I met

    A person who has had a significant influence on me in my life would have to be my former foster mother, Miss Barbara Pratt. Ms. Pratt was a foster mother to many children before myself and she had had wonderful success with most of them. I had been in an extremely abusive relatives home before I had been placed in Ms. Pratt’s home. When it was discovered that I was in an abusive home I was first placed in a group home in Cincinnati. Social Services worked very hard to find me a home that would help me adjust to a ‘normal’ life as quickly and easily as possible. They found the home my older sister had been placed in, they contacted Ms. Pratt and I was placed in her care.…

    When someone asks you the question, “who has impacted your life?” I’m sure we all can list many amazing people. When people ask me that question one specific person comes to mind, my grandpa, Gordon Westendorf. He saw potential in me at a very young age. He would read to me for hours and hours to allow me to learn as much as i could. He never turned away from a teaching opportunity and always was willing to take time out of his busy day to talk to me or to help me with anything I need.…

    Over the years that I’ve been at Burdick, I’ve gained many great friends, but I also lost a few. Only a few selective of them, I tell my secrets to. For example, Kaiden, Coreena, Dakota, Elysium, Joelle, Jose, and Isaiah. They’re the greatest friends anyone could ask for and have. They’re loyal, truthful, understanding, funny, witty, sarcastic, and just plain awesome. I have them to thank for making ordinary moments, extraordinary. They’re always there when I want to hang out or vent out my feelings. They put in that extra effort to understand me for who I am, not caring the slightest bit about my flaws and imperfections. And if I ever need to shed some tears, I know that at least one of them will be there to comfort me. There are times where…

    I have had multiple influential people in my life, but I'm not going to say my parents or a great teacher, but rather someone closer to my age. Andrew Calton, a good friend and great influence. Andrew helped me “get back on my feet” when I was scared to kayak. I would stay on the lake and not go on rivers because I had no confidence in myself. Late at night he and Jack White, another good friend, came to my cabin at camp and told me there was a spot on a trip and he wanted me to go. I went on the trip and the fact that they wanted me to go boosted my confidence. We went on harder rivers I had never been on and I did not swim, or bail out of by boat once.…

The person who has changed my life in the past couple years was my softball coach. She had us all work as hard as we could everyday. If we didn’t put in our best effort for a drill, she would have us start over and do it again. Coach Tash was motivated, committed, and helpful to everyone on the team.…

    I’ve encountered one person in my life that I can truthfully say has impacted my life greatly. I worked with this individual for only a short time, but she was the only person to really reach out and make me feel valued and appreciated. My goal is to make children feel valued, appreciated, and confident. One thing that stood out to be about this individual was the endless support and empathy from them, not only did she sympathize for me, but she also guided me, and gave me an extra push to show me that life is so much more. I would hope that a child I will be working with would be able to think of me the same way, and I can impact someone on such a personal and professional…

    A person who made an enormous impact on my life was my eighth grade math teacher. I'd had failed my seventh grade TAKS test and had to take a second math class for the year. I was extremely furious and disappointed that I had to take yet another math. I was and still am terrible at math, which just made the situation even worse. Within the first week, I kept failing my assignments, which was making my grade plummet. I came to my regular math teacher for help for my assignments to raise my grades. However, the way the teacher was explaining the math made absolutely no sense to me in any way. Fortunately, when I came to my TAKS math teacher for tutoring, the way he explained to me actually made things much more simpler in my work. Things started…

    I never really had enough time at Broken Arrow or at Inola to leave my mark during my high school career. I only spent two years at each school. Despite that, I made really good friends within my first few months and that made adjusting to my new life in Inola so much easier. First was Garrett. I met him in sixth or seventh grade at Oliver Middle School in Broken Arrow through our mutual friend, Anthony. Garrett was extremely shy back then and hardly said anything at all to me, but by the time I had met up with him the day before school started for my junior year, he had become much more social and an even bigger joy to be around. Garrett was really the reason that I made the majority of the friends so easily.…

    Tyler Evan is one of my many peers who have made a huge impact on my life. I meet Tyler in April of 2017 and though I have not know him that the long the summer we spent together has changed a lot about how I see the world. He has opened my eyes up to a whole new social class that I was not familiar with. When I was growing up I had supportive parents and never had to worry about financial problems. As me and Tyler began to get closer I found out that my life isn't at all what most people have. Due to some circumstances his parents were very involved in his life, and had little to no money. After all he had been through and all the challenges he has faced , It still shocks he that he is as strong and independent as he his. For me I had always seen the people on the street who lacked money but they never really meant anything to. People who have little to no money can be just a great, and hardworking as those who are wealth.…

    Bridge Role Model

    • 525 Words
    • 3 Pages

    No matter how old we get we find that we always carry someone in our hearts that we revere. This is also true for high school students. To me, one group of people I admire are the Bridge Students. Every year one group of students gets chosen and exceed the expectations of them and do things that they are most likely the first in their families to do; these kids are role models. I have served as a role model in a many ways, as a girl scout, as a mentor, as an officer of multiple clubs, but only one way could make my heart feel as good as probably the humblest of all of my role model experiences, being a big sister. In my family were all very close and I may only have one sibling but I also have three cousins that call me their big sister. These kids for a long time were the reason I got up every day. I’ve always done my best to help them grow up right and making sure that they always knew I loved them. As a bridge student obviously I wouldn’t have the same kind of relationship with the summer academy students as I do with my family but I will care about them and their well-being the same as I would my family.…

    In my life, I have met certain people who have changed me for the better and have helped shape me into who I am today. A lot of those people have left but one that has always stood by my side and sticks out in my mind is my favorite person in the whole world, who happens to be my Papa. He has been there for me since day one, literally. He was the second person to hold me as in infant, after my mother. People like him don’t come around everyday. He is the most genuine person you will ever meet. A lot of people would speak this way about their relatives or friends but every person who my grandpa meets, leaves with a smile on their face.…
