    My biggest accomplishment in my life would had been when I received my certification as a nursing assistant. The reason being, I had failed the first time; I passed the written part, but failed the physical task part. I was depressed for months - I didn't hang out with friends, hardly ate, and I didn't even feel the need to continue trying to get my certification. Sadly, during those depressed months, I had to wait until I was able to retake the physical which also costed me another $80 (no one wants to hand out that amount of money when you are already upset failing the first time).

    One accomplishment that I believe marked my transition to adulthood was when I won the presidency of my junior high student council. This monumental accomplishment meant the world for me, but it also required a lot from me. For the first time in school I was required to do more than just learn, I was required to be a role model for other students, as well as a representative of the student body to the administration. In the beginning I thought such a responsibility was too much to be put in a thirteen year old. But I soon realized that I was the one who chose to run for office and therefore should be able to fulfill the commitment.
