Going to school wasn’t easy for me in elementary and middle school I would get bullied a lot and it was hard I barely made friends. But at home my mom and grandma always taught me manner and how to talk to people and treat people with respect and I would always remember when people talked about I would still treat them with kindness. And she always taught me to be strong and go for what I wat in life. As far as teacher in school my favorite teacher of all was Mrs. Vaughn. Mrs. Vaughn was a very outgoing teacher she loves to do plenty things with us like makeup parties, fashion, nail, and most of all she had girl talk with us and I really love her for that she actually taught me to she taught all of us how to be a lady and we can do many things without a man cause most of them were distractions.

    Now this is where I`m supposed to write “all about me”. This is where I become lost. I mean, come on. I wouldn`t know where to start. But I guess the best way to have an idea what makes me tick and what ticks me off is by checking my journal that i fill with endless ramblings about whatever and whoever catches my fleeting fancy or rage. :)…

    Growing up, I noticed a lot of discussion about financial problems between my parents. It’s not that we were becoming poor, it was because of our growing family needing more supplies. My mother just gave birth to my little brother when I started noticing the financial issues my family were facing. As a little girl, I do not know how our finances worked all I knew was many bills were due and I knew it because when I was a little girl I liked to practice reading and those bill statements were the papers that attracted my interest due to its colorful paper.…

    Personal background starts off small, it changes and grows over time into something big, it grows into an identity. Walking down the hallway at school, seeing someone standing alone, my first instinct is to make conversation, compliment, or even just smile at him or her. This instinct came from someone once telling me an act so small could turn a person's entire life around. As a kid, reading encyclopedias about random topics, consumed my time. Many days were spent coming home to find an injured wild animal in my dad's arms waiting to be saved. My dad would sit outside and draw animals, trees, and anything else he saw. Nothing excited me more than trying to draw whatever my dad drew, and as good as he did. Any assignment that was handed to…

    At the beginning of the year it felt like I would have never been able to write any paper that was more than two pages long, it just seemed impossible, but for the research paper I actually had to stop myself from going off and writing a twelve page paper. I will admit and say that English is not my strong suit, in fact it is probably one of my more difficult classes. But just because it is difficult does not mean I don’t like it. I like looking for topics that interest me and still fit in with the guidelines, I like getting involved in the paper and researching the topic until it feels like my head is about to explode. I never saw any of that coming, I thought that I was going to have to go through English and just pray…

    My life started on December 13, 1999 In Ahoskie, North Carolina. I was born at 12 p.m. As my family would tell it was a very different day for everyone. I was my mom’s first born child and the same for my dad. I really don’t remember much about my childhood. The furthest back I remember is like 4th grade way back when I made my mother proud. I had straight A’s and I never had a single write up. I always tried to do the best I could to get through the years and I did well until the sixth grade.…

    Growing up a missionary kid, I think the question “who are you” has been more prevalent in my life than the average. Bouncing from place to place meant my home wasn’t a specific country and my family didn’t only include my relatives. Being constantly exposed to different environments, cultures, and people led me to really establish myself as an individual, with minimal ties to any one place or anyone else. My childhood also insured I grew up with a love for traveling, and a great appreciation of different cultures and ways of life. I learned from an early age that it is what makes us different that makes us special. As I grew up, I found myself aspiring to be different than my surroundings. I never really felt the need to fit in or conform because I was taught that the only person I really needed to be was myself. I was always told of how strong,…

    My favorite teacher was the head of the math department, graduated with a Ph.D. in math, and a grader of the calculus AP tests, but still respected the intelligence of every one of student and encouraged questions, even gave up his lunch hours for students to come in if they had any questions. He was my math educator for two years of my high school experience. He was my educator of math analysis and calculus. He valued math so much that the math analysis class was not called trigonometry class because he felt there was more than…

In Illinois we were closer to my father’s older siblings I stayed home with my mother while my father worked and my siblings went to school. I have little memory of wearing a snow suit and playing outside with my siblings on Christmas when my brother shot his toy gun piece and it went in the fireplace. Two years later My mother was accepted into nursing school back home so we moved back to Louisiana. I then started Pre-K at Wonderland of Play where I am still friends with three of my fellow classmates today. I then started Kindergarten at Westwood Elementary in Westlake, Louisiana till the fifth grade along with playing softball and school clubs throughout the years. I had many friends’ great memories of sleepovers with family. I remember my parents waking us up saying they heard the reindeers on the roof. They use to trade boxes on our gifts so we would think it was something we didn’t ask Santa for. On my 8th birthday I met my cousin Larissa Tanner for the first time and we became best friends instantly. In 1996 my oldest sister became pregnant with my first niece. On July 8, 1997 Torreyan Kia-Latrece Gradney was born my first niece and my parents first grandchild. In 1998 I moved to Houston, Texas because my mother accepted a better nursing position.

    Teacher Tribute

    I would like to tribute this to one of my favorite teachers throughout my years at Lawrence Middle School, Mr. Hughes. The most important teacher in my life I would have to say would be my 8th grade history teacher Mr. Hughes my 8th grade history teacher. The way he taught was perfect it was easy to intake all the information’s because he would make learning the lesson fun. For example I remember we were learning about slavery and how north and south had fought, he divided the class into two one was the south and the other the north. We had to argue and battle why we each side wanted what they want and we would have to back it up and the winning team would get money or some kid of reward. He made me look at school from a whole another perspective. If it wasn't for him I would probably not doing so good in school an not caring about graduating. If it wasn't for his teaching and his lectures he gave me I would not be the person I am now, nor would I have been close to graduating because before him I did not really care for school and learning. He told me so many things that you needed in life and how to become successful and the things you need to do to accomplish it. I remember we were selling chocolate for a school fundraiser an he bought a whole box of me just to show he cared. He was an amazing teacher who i will never forget. He was the only teacher who i liked listening lectures from because he just made them so much interesting changing his voice or the tone whatever it was he needed to do to make the class stay awake an learn he did. Mr. Hughes has past way he was sick an got injured and never got better he was a very wise man. I would just like to say R.I.P Mr. Hughes the teacher who made a difference in not my life but in many more others lives and just the way life is looked upon. He lived his life to the fullest I believe he did everything he wanted to he would always have these crazy stories he would tell us give us life lessons on…

    My favorite teacher is Mrs. Auguste. She is a great teacher because she is nice and cares for her students. Mrs. Auguste is one teacher that will listen to her students and help them with problems that don't just include her classroom studies. If I ever need to talk to someone about anything she's always there. Mrs. Auguste will be greatly missed when I leave after 12th grade. She has been with Miami Jackson Senior High School for a couple of years and is very deserving of this honor.…

    The best teacher I ever had throughout my years as a student was my sixth grade teacher, aptly named Mrs. Power. Not only was she strict and encouraging, she was also kind and thoughtful. She utilized several different approaches in teaching and was well respected by both her students and her peers alike. Mrs Power was patient with each student, and it was evident that she knew we all learnt differently. She tried her best to explain assignments and other tasks given to us, in a way so that we could understand properly (Lecturer/explainer role). Taking care not to speak too much.…
