Life’s Path Is A Maze
As a writer, I feel I am going through a maze. In the beginning I realized there is more than one path to take, either it can lead me toward success or it can le ad to a dead end. In my mind I know it can be easy at times, but other times when I come to a stopping point I overthink things. I feel like my choices need to be made right away. I think of it as temptations being called from every direction. One way will lead me to the finish line and the other path will only take me back to where I had started. When I’m given a writing assignment I feel the pressures is on. I’m ready to step up and face the biggest challenge I have in English class which

My dream is to become a Radiology Technologist and day after day it had transformed me into an ambition which I wanted to move towards. A Radiology Technologist requires you to gain four top skills throughout your learning experience; Communication, Physical, Clinical, and Education. First, I will keep working hard at Seward so I’m able to get the appropriate basic skills for me to get into the Radiology program in Weatherford. I will acquire a variety of classes that will challenge me to write many different papers. In order for me to become successful in my career I will focus on becoming a better writer. Writing will be a huge part of my career because I will need to interview patients to learn about their medical history, write reports for referring doctors, and also communicate Therapeutic and Diagnostic position. Although this will be a challenge, I will try my best to achieve this …show more content…
We all love to dream, to hope, and to see ourselves get better each day. Every one of us dreams of being something big in life whether it’s becoming a lawyer, doctor, or maybe a police officer. In order to pursue my dreams I have to become a stronger writer. Which means I have to complete my studies and work hard to achieve many more goals in life. If I put my best abilities forward I can accomplish my goals in the best way possible. There's no doubt that there will be times when I feel like giving up, but I know I can’t give up on myself and my family. I have to learn to just stand up and try even if I have to try for a thousand times. when I finally reach my goals I’ll feel happy from deep inside my heart because then I’ll l be doing exactly what I love to do and I’ll be testing my wildest dreams . I believe nothing can be compared to this moment because when you set your dreams in front of your eyes and work for them, there will be no doubt in my mind that I will achieve them someday. I will also be able to say I’m proud of myself because I proved that there's nothing impossible when I actually was determined to

    I remember November the 20th. The worst day I ever had.it was a Basketball game. As I was running toward the basket, looking at this tall and long basket just like a chemals neck. Banging on it was the rough ball, trying to go in, but who desperately fall downs to the other team hands. I absolutely believe that failure can lead to success because it will make u stronger (you can learn from it) and braver (be better at it). I wasn’t too happy about it, but in any case I improve in it. I remember November the 20th. The worst day I ever had.it was a Basketball game.

    Dr.Seuss once said the word, “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” The challenges I face while pressuring my dream of becoming a radiologist are similar to odysseus's journey. There is a good chance I will have to face these three challenges: acceptance, separation, and financial stability. Theses obstacles will be hard to overcome, however, I believe I can persevere through them the same way odysseus did.…

    This book made me think about life growing up a kid. Most kids dream of becoming famous and having a nice house and nice cars and a lot of money.

    The part of being a technician that interests me the most is trying to get the slightest idea of how a simple ray can transmit through the body without harm and come out with a picture. In order to meet the educational requirements, all of the criteria classes need to be met. Typically is takes two years and then two years of clinical after you get in the radiology program. Radiology technicians must also be licensed in most states by passing an exam from The American Registry of Radiologist Technologist (Bureau of Statistics). The upper division classes are internships and clinical practice. These give a potential candidate hands on experience, while learning lab and people skills at the same time. I personally plan to meet all of these requirements by doing my best in classes and taking classes that might not be mandatory to make myself better in the end. I started to prepare myself in high school by taking four years of science and three years of math. All of the BRAVO outcomes mentioned by Austin Peay will also help me in my career. The acronyms for values and outcomes really stand out to me. I need to remember my morals and values when it comes to the patient/doctor code of confidentially. Even the simplest slip of a detail could ruin someone’s whole life. The overall outcome is to find a cure to make the patient feel better. The first step in this process relies on a technician. The ending result requires…

    I began to wipe the tears from my cheeks and I realized that my mindset was fixed on failure. I convinced myself that anything that I set out to do was going to end in failure. I have to stop letting the fear of failure rule my life. It’s up to me to change what I don’t like about my life, no one can do it for me. I have control over my life. So, I decided at that moment I was going to make a change. I’m going back to school to finish what I started, no matter how long it takes. I have to accept that failure is a part of life; I have to be willing to fail to learn how to succeed.…

    In the past a thousand weeks, I feel like I have accomplished a great deal. As the quarter ends, I find myself reflecting not only how I have survived my fifth quarter but also what I have learned. The most important thing I have learned so far is how to become a better writer. I did not think it could really happen to me. I did not think I could handle all the work. I did not think I could actually become a better writer. Somehow, after all the hours of writing, and putting effort into my papers that I wrote in this quarter, I became a better writer. I did this because I concentrated on two very important areas. With help from an awesome teacher and my partner, I have become a better writer by improving my skills in the areas of procrastination and content.…

    Writing Style Per Image

    • 400 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The picture that best describes my writing is the image with three men with an incline arrow and a decline arrow. I see myself as this image (one man on top full of confidence and great ideas who has a big vision and a complete game plan in mind and sees himself going places, meeting goals and deadlines and then to men on the bottom pulling my ideas and confidence down faster than I can get on paper). I have always felt like my mind is going a million miles a minute with ideas and at the time I will be very excited about it, but when it comes to sitting down and putting it in writing, my lack of confidence and knowledge about writing accurately will start me thinking about others judging me, therefore I see the two people on the bottom pulling my ideas down and because I could not get to paper what I was actually thinking in my head, by the time it gets to paper it is not what I first envisioned. I have done this in my own life or even went as far as given others my ideas to run with, because of lack of confidence, so this picture really spoke to me about what my writing process is now and what I hope to gain from this class. The image that I hope will describe my writing process at the end of this class is the tree, because to me this represents growth and new beginnings. When the tree symbolizes my new writing process, I will be able to have the confidence and knowledge to take my own visions, put them to paper and run with it. I hope to learn new traits of this writing process that will help me to gain strength in this area. As I continue to look at the picture with the three men, one advantage I do see is the man on top even though he lacks the confidence to feel like he is on top others may already see him this way and he just doesn't realize that. I hope by learning my writing process and the areas I need to develop that someday I can have the confidence to put my ideas down on paper as fast as they come to my mind. I am excited about what the future…
