In my foteen years of life i have missed many oppurtinies. I have missed many new experiences. I may regret some and might not even remember most. Some oppurtunities could have helped me advance mentally, physcsly or helped me in other ways, but i did not take them. Regretting events is not good for anyone or anything, because then you over think and feel even more angry at yourself and you wish you could go back and change your decision. Sometimes we need to miss these oppurtunities for our own good or because of we take them we can miss out on something else, sooner or later we will realize that. If i had taken som oppurtinies my life couldve changed one way or another. I could of have a different way of looking at the world. My personility …show more content…

People who i barely know and people who i have known for years. As for a support system i would have to say is my family. My family have always supported me. We support each other, and go through many things together. Yes, there is arguing and sometimes i wish to not have them, but what would i do without them. I do not think i can get the same support from other people, except some of my friends. For me it is very hard to open up to people. It takes me a long time for people to know me well. Even though people may become my friends very quickly and easily, I would rather let them do the talking and let them tell me about them. I do not have a problem with letting people to get know about me but it is a bit dificult and hard to open up or say what i feel. I have always been shy, unless im comfortable with the people and the enviroment tht is arpound me, im also kind of awkward. One person who is my support system is my older sister, Doriana (Dori). She is the closest person on this planet to me. We can relate alot and can laugh for hours. WE spent a lot of time together. She can get annoying sometimes but know i can trust her. I beleive her ententions are always for good. Dori is a wonderful person, she cares about others and shows it well. SHes and inspiration to many people around her even me. She supports me when im sad, emotianal, happy, anxious, and many more things. Dori helps me with my homework and my problems. We all need a Dori in our lifes. She will support you no matter the situation. I dont know what i wpuld do woth out her. Another peeson who i consider my support system is my mom. She has bewn there snce day one. AS every mother should she cares about me and my siblings. My mom helps the world go round. If i need anything shes there. She desverse so many things for how supportive dhe is.

We know we should support our friends, but sometimes, things happen, and although we know we should, we don’t do it nearly enough. I understand we don’t think or talk about this is because it is not an easy subject to bring forward. Support comes in many different forms, and not just the one I tried to implement in my speech. By talking about my experiences, I hope to help my audience discover that people have many dimensions to themselves and are not just the image they project and seem to be. Appearances can be deceiving, so we should not assume we know what another person is going through based off of our own expectations.

When someone experiences a terrible loss in their life usually they can cope with it in a multitude of ways. Some cope with it through deep mournful trials, replace the terrible moment with a more light and peaceful moment, block it out entirely, or they relive the event that caused the loss of that close friend or loved one over and over in their head. These coping mechanisms are evidently used in the entire cast of characters in the short story The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. In the story the characters experience the loss of a member in their unit during a patrol through the jungles of Vietnam. After they experience the loss of their comrade in arms the entire unit undergoes a process of mourning in their own distinct way.

I have always enjoyed the art of cosmetology because it helps bring out people's features, makes them feel more confident, and there's always different looks for everyone. I remember when I would get my hair done, being so intrigued by the art that came from it. How changing the color of someone's hair can change there whole look, or how a simple haircut can bring out certain face features. When I first started doing hair and makeup, I was not very good, but the more I kept practicing the better I got. On the other hand I have always been pretty good with doing hair.

Just a few years ago I was uncomfortable asking people for help and stepping out of my comfort zone, but being in places where I was strongly encouraged to reach out to strangers was very helpful. I faced many challenges with reaching out to people especially in Spain. Since I did not speak the same language, fluently, it was very hard to communicate with people to ask for assistance. I quickly overcame that by finding ways to communicate the words that I did not know.

I am extremely shy and try not to talk to people I do not know, but if I become comfortable around someone then I will talk a lot more. I believe that true friends are one of the most important things to have in life. As a result, I would rather have a small group of well known friends as opposed to a large group of somewhat known friends. When speaking, I feel that the smaller the group I am trying to talk to, the harder it is. For example, talking to new people at school causes me to feel stressed mainly because the people I am talking to will probably know somewhat about me, but public speaking comes easy to me because I know that the majority of the people I speak to will not speak to me ever

Literature Review Social Support Albrecht and Adelman’s study (as cited in Kendall Hunt Publishing Co., 2011) provided a definition of social support as “verbal and non-verbal communication between recipients and providers that reduces uncertainty about the situation, the self, the other, or the relationship, and functions to enhance a perception of personal control in one’s life experience”. Social support is any type of communication that helps an individual feel more secure or certain about a situation and therefore being able to feel that they have control over a situation (2011, Kendall Hunt Publishing Co.). According to Hunt, social support emphasizes the availability of the network of people that provides support, therefore, the presence

I learned how to manage my time more efficiently since I had to balance my work and education and still do all the activities that make me happy such as playing soccer and badminton with my friends or being part of clubs at my school. Although life does not go by rule; there are times when I think what would happen if my dad was still healthy and I wouldn 't have to work. I wonder what it feels like not to think about paying the rent for a day or being able to spend the weekend without working. Still, at the end of the day when I first bought my mother an iPhone with my earnings, I felt satisfied with myself.
