Response to essay question: What do I fell is my best attribute and/or characteristics?Why?

My best attribute if I must say without seeming just ordinary would be being a mother. When my son looks up at me with that ever endearing love.His eyes full of potential seeking my knowledge, guidance, discipline, love and support.I would love to be able to give him the world though impossible I try and do my best. My son makes me feel like I'm doing a great job, if I do not have efficient finances for the action figure or video game he states" That its OK mommy we'll get it next time" never creating a fuss. There are times when I am upset I have had a prank caller that wouldn't give my phone a break my son had overheard me yelling,and stated " Don't worry mommy don't get upset you'll have an heart attack;just take a deep breath"calm down.I did then I laughed knowing that he is right telling me how to control my behavior at only the tender age of six makes me love to be a mother This is the one true attribute that is always having me to assess myself continually.

My son's admiration for me makes me feel almost honorable.He is well aware that I work very hard to provide a substantially comfortable environment for us being as though I have raised him as a single parent. Becoming a mother has endowed me with so much compassion. I am able to care for another person more than I care for myself.
When there had been a time long ago when I felt a child would ruin my life. On the contrary it made life all the more enjoyable.

I feel that the attribute of mother has giving me one of life most fulfilling experiences but it has also better help me to relate and appreciate my own mother as well. I can remember the times when i was younger I felt so upset with her , mostly for attention. I am the third out of eight . Then other times I felt that she could have done more to make life comfortable.Today I understand the hardships, struggles, the time consumption that it must of took for her to provide what we had. I have someone now who is my mom and friend. Being a mother made me realize how much we have in common we can converse better,and I am more open to listen to her advice after all she raised me and I turned out fine now I can see my work as mother lived out in my child.

My best characteristic I'd say enables me to better live up to my best attribute and I believe it to be that I am driven/outgoing ,I describe this characteristic to mean that I never back down when challenged especially intellectually.I have an ever ready willingness to compete for the win without gambling with my morals.I am insistent on conquering fears leaving no room for intimidation. Aiming to excel in any endeavors that I may encounter.This drive in me makes me passionate about life and all of it's wondrous bounties.I feel that this drive is fueled even more that it's my time to be mom. I can do the job my way perfecting myself as time goes by learning from my mistakes and those of my parents.I'm making sure that I take the necessary steps to further my education by getting my G.E.D.,encouraging my son in a life of challenges.Letting him know to never give up on your dreams and that there is always something more to aspire to be.

These two qualities the best attribute and my favorite characteristic of myself I feel will keep me positive .They are the foundations on what I feel will help me to become the successful attorney that I aspire to be . These qualities has already taken me back to school,strengthening myself in the general educational areas that have been my weak points . What most I admire about the two is that together they make each and every day worth living.Having these qualities instilled in me makes me to know that every waking day I'm already off to a good start.

Response to the essay question

My most significant life changing experience

I feel that moving from New York to Virginia has been the one most significant life changing experience for the betterment of my future. Relocating to Richmond, V.A. has opened my eyes to promising opportunities.Virginia has became a place for me to further my education in pursuit of a stable career profession, and have a family.

I was born and raised in South Jamaica Queens, New York. A area of high violent crime and drug rates. Growing into the age of understanding my surroundings, I became aware that New York no longer seemed to be the place to call home because" home is where the heart is". This place that I loved as an child became a place where I felt that I would never raise my own. Criminals and drugs addicts you'll find on nearly every street corner, 24/hr stores that doorways are crowded night and day with hustlers. This every day scene disfigures the city's potential. The constant traffic and violence is like a chaotic jungle of unfamiliar faces . I didn't want my child when the time came, to have to walk around viewing those images as early in his life as I had.

Moving to Virgina has given me peace of mind. I am more concentrated looking forward to more great things to come. I do not have to worry about who's standing in front of my residence or neighborhood convenience store.I have a son now.I know that when he comes of age Virginia offers very little of these distractions that became a hindrance unto me and my education. The streets are much cleaner here and the people nicer,patient and more courteous.

Older and more determined than ever now, without the disadvantages that I experienced in New york . I finally got the opportunity to go back to school attending classes for my high school equivalency diploma. As it stands today I am aspiring to become an attorney in the field of criminal law.

I believe that if it were not for this significant life changing move to Virginia,that it would of taken me much longer to return to school.I also know that buy this move I have become a better person and mother capable of providing a positive future for my family and myself.

A poem of mine

Discovering new powers , my brain on burn out! My mind like a riddle, and without the answers that I behold many will be lost. But it is not using your mind if you tell all that you know of course. Most people dont think,and those that do dont take the time to find out why it is that they think the way they do. So the world around them remains a puzzle. At times I myself may falter or slip and actually there are times i'd deny this gift. Learning and mastering it seems to be most complexed.
