Personal Narrative: A Career As A Link Crew Leader

487 Words2 Pages

I am interested in being a Link Crew Leader for many reasons. My sister who graduated in the class of 2016 was a Link Crew Leader and from hearing about the duty of being a Leader and how much fun she had excited me to want to become one. Another reason I want to be a part of Link Crew is because I remember my Link Crew day when I was a freshman, and how much fun it was. It assured me that I made the right choice in picking where I would spend my next four years.

This has helped me because I have formed many friendships and people don 't hesitate to come to me for help, and I do not hesitate to help them. A negative personality trait I have is I tend to be quite thin-skinned. Meaning, I do not take criticism very well. This has took a negative effect on my life because I let rude remarks or insults get me down and affect my behavior. They stick with me for awhile until I can somehow overcome which I usually do. Although this is a downside for me, it has led me to be more compassionate because I do not want others to have to feel that

I would like to bring to you my story with American Airlines, hopefully to get some justice for what have been done to me by American Airlines. My story with American Airlines. It seems that we are living in a great hypocrisy. Some of us advocate for something, but in reality they practice something totally different. I am going to share and expose American Airlines one of the largest airlines in the world and show the world that dishonesty and thievery do exist even among multi billion dollar companies or maybe better to say especially among billion dollar companies.

Imagine seeing someone going through a situation and you felt empathy for them. Knowing how felt for you would you help them out? The two stories "Upon the Waters" and "Thankyou Ma'am by Joanne Greenberg and Langston Hughes really showed me to help others in need. Both of these stories make the theme "Help others in need especially if you've gone through it yourself.

I think that I should be chosen for Link Crew because I am always able to help out, give directions to lost freshmen, influence them in a positive manner, and be a kind upperclassman. I get good grades, I’m in all honors classes, I participate in a sport year round, inside and outside of school. I am involved in Calling all Colors here at Mona Shores High School, which is a group about tolerance and accepting other, and teaching others at our school how to make everyone feel equally welcome. I plan to keep in touch with my 9th graders by doing little things for them through the year, like dropping off little items to their classes; just like I was given as a freshman.

I want to attend Fleet Week because it is a wonderful opportunity to educate myself on seamanship, and it will be a great honor to be bestowed for experiencing such a great accomplishment of representing the Kentucky Division, the John T. Dempster, Jr. Division, the USSCC, the Navy, and the New York City Fleet Week. On this trip, I will push my limits to complete my tasks and to learn as much as I can in the brief time aboard the Naval Vessel. Going on this trip would also honor my great uncle, Warren “Tiny” Kilgore, who was a Seabee in World War two that passed away in 2011, and my family. Through all the stories recited to me about days aboard ships and on foreign shores, has given me the feeling of unaccomplished adventure that I need to find.

According to the New York Times in 2013 less than .5 percent of the U.S population serves in the armed forces. Thats all 6 branches: the Navy, the Army, the Marines, the Air Force, the Coast Guard, and the National Guard combined. It surprised me when I found this information last year because the military was, and still is, such a big part of my life. Just about everyone in my family is in or has been in the military. When I was still in elementary school my aunts and uncle were still active duty so I remember sending them care packages and waiting for them to come home.
