Childhood Memory
I am an international college student from Vietnam, and have been through twelve grades with lots of memories. One thing I could say is the interval time between my sixth and eighth grade was the time that I cherish the most. It is not only because it was my most successful time with a bunch of fabulous achievements I obtained, but also because literally it was my great pleasure to be instructed by a very thoughtful teacher. She was my Mathematics teacher, and her name is Mrs. Nguyen.
I did enjoy most of her lectures in class. Thanks to being taught by a great teacher, Mathematics gradually became my most favorite subject.
At that time, Vietnamese teachers received just a small amount of salary every month due to the government did not have much money. They could have a good life if they live alone, and only spend money for their own. However, if they have a family, their husband or wife needs to have much better income to run the house and nurture their children.
My teacher and her husband both do educational job. As a result, they do not have good income enough to run their house and to pay tuitions for their kids. Therefore, those who had the same situation like this usually opened extra classes at their home for a little income. The government prohibited teachers to give extra lectures at their home because they worried that if teachers give lectures at home, students would get bored of listening lectures in class.

    A new class of Vietnamese had come into being: people who labored for the French as servants, or who labored in French-owned mines, on French-owned plantations, at French construction sites or in French-owned factories. The French paid them as little as they could -- hardly enough for survival, and sometimes not enough. As in Africa, the French were taxing the Vietnamese and drafting them to labor on public works. On one such project -- the Hanoi-Yunnan Phu railway -- 25,000 Vietnamese died. Conditions in Vietnam in general were creating a decline in Vietnam's population.…

    Nowadays, the Vietnamese government is opening many jobs that need high professional skills and great scientific progress. Therefore, many Vietnamese immigrants return Vietnam to work. Moreover, the Vietnamese government gives them many benefits, such as free house, life insurance and high income to keep them working in Vietnam. In addition, the life in Vietnam is cheaper and easier than America. For example, Vietnamese experts, who has a degree and higher education in America, might earn a good income, but they also pay a lot of money for their cost of living.…

    Growing up, Sedaris had a good life. He had a loving family that supported him and made sure he was well taking care of. Sedaris’ friend, Hugh had a very difficult lifestyle. When Hugh was growing up as a child, he saw things that children should not be forced to witness. Hugh’s class took a field trip to a slaughterhouse one day, where they were treated to a pig’s execution. “…One of the brothers drew a pistol from his back pocket, held it against the animal’s temple, and shot the piglet, execution-style.” (Paragraph 6, page 109) At another occasion, Hugh witnesses a dead man on a telephone pole. “Unlike me, he left the theater two hours later, to find a dead man hanging from a telephone pole at the far end of the unpaved parking lot.” (Paragraph 10, page 110) Hugh was often neglected by this family and spent majority of his adolescence with surrogate parents. Hugh’s life wasn’t the not good at all but Sedaris wanted Hugh’s life.…

    I’ve heard lots of college students say that they miss being in grade school. Don’t get me wrong, there have been some rough times in middle school, but they were overcoming. It was rough being in middle school as young as the fifth grade. We were treated as immature, little children, but we kind of were. In sixth grade, we were treated the exact same. Seventh grade was different because we had a little bit more freedom. Actually, we were allowed to join different types of clubs and sports teams. But I have to say, eighth grade has been my most memorable year. From my least favorite to my all time favorite, I would have to say that it would be fifth grade, seventh grade, and then eighth…

    Childhood Innocence

    • 834 Words
    • 3 Pages

    I have checked all over the internet for a direct definition of childhood innocence, however even the Merriam-Webster dictionary does not have a definition of childhood innocence. I guess you could look up the two words separately and link the definition together. Childhood is defined in the Merriam-Webster dictionary as “the state or period of being a child”. Innocence is defined as “the state of being not guilty of a crime or other wrong act”. So childhood innocence could mean the state of being a child without being guilty of a crime or wrong act. When thinking of and defining childhood innocence, one may believe it’s a state of being carefree, pure of heart, and most importantly its very fragile. Childhood innocence is inspirational and should be protected from evils that surround it because it easily taken away.…

    If I could choose my favorite grade it would be Pre School. All we did in preschool was play with toys and learned how to cut and draw not any of this complicated math or chemistry homework. I recollect it so clearly like it was just yesterday I had gone to preschool. I remember that we used to go to the library where they had a ladder that took you to an attic sort of place where us kids could just read or talk. During recess my preschool friends and I brought our hot wheel cars to recess and played with them like we were the ones driving them. There used to be no judging whether a kid was smart or popular we all treated each other with respect. At the last day of preschool we had this graduation, and I remember that while my mom was recording…

    Memories are a funny thing. They are the mental and emotional ties that we have to the past. Without photographs or videos, memories are all we have to recall significant moments throughout our lives. Whether it is a momentous life achievement, or a simple snap shot of being happy or sad, memories live within our psyche. They are not tangible objects; they are not even exact or clear. They are fuzzy scenes in our minds that we hold on to because they evoke certain emotions or signify some kind of importance. Or maybe you have some memories stowed away and the reason has yet to be revealed. The most interesting and complex element to memories is that they are easily interfered with. While time and age are the most obvious…
