    My insider/outsider partner was Alicia Garcia. As you can tell by her last name she is Hispanic. I don’t have many Hispanic friends and I am not use to their culture. Starting on the project Alicia told me a little a bit about her heritage. One of the things I asked her was, “Do you celebrate the day of the dead?” I know that might seem like a crazy question to ask, but I the only thing that I truly knew about her culture is what I seen on TV. Alicia said that they do celebrate it to some extent. They don’t actually go to a grave site and light candles for their fallen relatives, but instead have a feast in honor of them. Alicia is the first generation American Hispanic.…

    Climbing into the lime green car, my fear was over taking me. I was getting ready to ride the Titan, an adrenaline pumping roller coaster ride at Six Flags. It was easily the scariest ride at the park, in my opinion, with its enormous peaks, its deep descents, and double helix like turns was enough to make me sick. The ride began. Ascending up in the car on the canary yellow track, into the humidity filled, bright sky, the people observing from below resembled little army ants . The aerial view of Dallas was breathtaking, as I reached the peak of the ride and looked around. Passengers occupying the cars in front of me started falling off, like a cliff. I let out a high-pitched shrill, as we plummeted toward the Earth below. Traveling…

During my high school years I wanted to be the best player I could so I started reading fitness magazine and as much about nutrition as I could.

    If given the opportunity to correct a mistake from my past, appreciating my curves in my childhood is the first slip up that comes to my mind. Rejecting my wide hips and thick thighs,I longed to have a slender figure not unlike my friends. Ultimately, I purchased one of Shaun T’s workout systems called “Insanity” in the seventh grade. Despite the obvious signs of exhaustion that my body exhibited, I kept pushing myself to endure three workouts a day. I set intangible goals for myself such as losing ten pounds a week. After three and a half months of consistently following Shaun T’s program, I was found heavily wheezing in my sleep during my mother’s nightly rounds to check on my siblings and I. Soon after, I began to feel claustrophobic, as…

    This common brain myth haunted me for several years as I played soccer. At first, I was very hesitant to commit for a ball in the air because of the possibility of colliding heads with the opposition. I ultimately realized the end result may have been a severe head injury or concussion, as I have witnessed several incidents regarding teammates. Thus, I only went for smart challenges in the air and avoided reckless mistakes on the field.…

    Schizophrenia affects more than 25 million people worldwide (Myers, 2010). Although the causes of schizophrenia are still under suspicion, well after many years of research, it is most certainly a disease of the brain. However, without a doctorate in psychiatry, one might be overwhelmed by all there is to know about the multiple effects of the disease. It is difficult enough to interpret the thoughts of another individual with absolute certainty, what is even more challenging is attempting to translate the thoughts of someone who has schizophrenia. Imagine watching your brother sitting on the porch arguing with someone, yet he is sitting all alone. For passers-by, the first reaction might be to say, “He is not playing with a full deck” or “what a nut case”, because to most people this is extremely strange behavior. However, this is exactly the peculiar behavior that friends and family members of schizophrenic patients are exposed to every day. Schizophrenia not only affects the person who has the mental illness, but also their family, friends, and loved ones. The average mind lacks understanding of the schizophrenic mind, only because they lack the knowledge and education necessary to understand and cope with their behavior.…

    My senior year of high school I received a traumatic brain injury in October while playing field hockey. What I assumed to be a minor injury with a quick recovery, turned into a yearlong battle to return to normalcy that has left me with lingering effects. The injury not only caused headaches and illness, but it prevented me from using electronics, spending time with friends, going to school, reading, and participating in sports. Amidst all these setbacks I turned to one of my favorite quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita to help me through: “Keep strong and stay determined. You are capable of overcoming the challenge.” I responded to my injury the best I could: with positivity, appreciation, and determination. I used my abundant free time to discover…

    Most people hold their mothers with high regard and respect; however, at the age of ten, I concluded that my mother did not deserve my idolization nor my unconditional love.

    I agree with you Jessica on having unrealistic images of yourself and the difference between looking a certain way and feeling a certain way. Cultural identity is a big deal to teenage girls because it projects her identity based on a certain groups that she associates with (Matlin, 2012, p. 124). In high school I was in the group of misfits, that happen to be mainly boys, and we had friends in other groups but we did not fit in anywhere else. Even though I projected an image of not caring about what others thought of me, I still felt I was fat and when I looked in the mirror, I saw myself as fat. I look back now and I was at an ideal weight then but currently I still think and feel I am obese. I am reminded by the doctor during every checkup…

    Being left to fight alone is devastating for anyone suffering from any form of mental illness. If a person you know seems to be struggling then reach out and connect with them. I can guarantee that showing that you care will make a huge difference and possibly save that person’s life. When you find yourself in a position to help someone, feel blessed because God is answering that person’s prayer through you. It can something as simple as the mixed CD I made for Bob to listen in his taxi, it just shows him that he is loved and that someone still cares about him.…
