Recommended: Essay on daydreaming

I don’t know since when, but after my dream was to become a cheetah had faded out, I was a little paranoid and yearned for being a “evil mad scientist” and it was perfect, I had all the qualities that I thought they were like. People always referred to me as a creepy, freaky or crazy. Didn’t think it was that bad cause there was respect towards me with knowledge. I used to be a hyperactive, energetic, inquisitive and problematic boy, far away from the Japanese stereotype. Maybe I still am. The motor of my actions were either, “I want to know” or “sounds fun”, everything in this world just seemed to be awesome and I was motivated with everything around me. I read a lot, especially about astronomy and yetis, encyclopedias and comics. The comics had a special effect on me. Unlike the other books, they weren’t facts but imagination. They have provided me with knowledge, profound interest in the things that appeared in it and imagination skills. I did start having a bad habit of daydreaming like thinking what the 4th dimension is and how to make a 4th dimensional pocket. By th...

  • Mad Scientists and Mad Elements

    832 Words  | 2 Pages

    We all know the saying, “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover.” Similarly, every element in the periodic table has its’ own story and its’ own unique meaning. However, the average high schooler simply associates these elements as something used in their chemistry classes. In fact, the elements seen on the periodic table actually have much more to do in our daily lives and in history than most people know. While giving a whole new perspective to the meaning of Chemistry, author Sam Kean successfully recounts the hidden tales through humor and wit in his bestselling novel The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of Elements. Specifically, Chapter 15, “An Element of Madness,” addresses the lives of several “mad scientists” associated with selenium, manganese, palladium, barium, and roentgenium that ultimately led to their downfall.

These children are precocious, self-instructing, can intuit solutions without resorting to logical, linear steps, and have an incredible interest in an area or more that they focus so intently on, that they may lose sense of the outside world (3). Early reading and development of abstract thought are typical characteristics as well. The acceleration of ment...

    In elementary school my progress reports would come back saying I was a very smart kid but I asked to many questions and talked to much. I would get in trouble for asking too many questions in class. I knew that water is blue, but I wanted to know why and no one could tell me. In middle school, I decided that if I really loved music why not ask questions so that’s what I did. In my middle school days my best friend was also the choir teacher’s daughter so I figured I would ask her questions.

    All throughout my younger preschool and kindergarten years i didn’t read. I didn’t really like reading at the time. This is because i never found books that interested me or that i liked, there were only a few ever. It also didn’t help that i was far sighted and needed glasses to read. They said i would have them for the rest of my life. Now that i could see and read better i was better at it but still didn’t like it. There was nothing that caught my attention or sounded interesting. For a while i got into books about jets and planes in the military or any vehicle really. I read those for a while but i still didn’t feel that these were the books for me.

  • New Kid Narrative

    552 Words  | 2 Pages

    Facing the typical struggles of a new kid brought new, scary challenges, but challenges that would help me grow and discover the person I am today. Arriving as “the new kid” in the last two years of middle school suddenly generated bouts of social anxiety and depression, scary feelings I had never faced before then. In the beginning, I struggled to open up and for a long time I just went through the motions to get through the day and forgot to actually live. Eventually, I pushed myself to ignore everything that was telling me to stay in bed and tried to find what made me excited to start a new day. Naturally drawn to history and literature, I resorted to books and television as an outlet during the transition of meeting new people and making new friends. Discovering new and old stories eventually lead to the resurgence of my curiosity of the world around me and what it had to offer me and what I could potentially offer the world. My curiosity helped me to become more open-minded and left me with an insatiable need to always continue learning new and widespread

    Once in elementary school, I saw other children know how to read a lot faster and better than I did. I remember going to the library and students be on a higher level books than I was. We always had to read aloud in class, I soon became embarrassed when trying to pronounce a word and students giggled, stared, and corrected me. Entering middle school, I become more interested in daunting novels such as Wait till Helen Comes, the Doll in the Garden, and Michigan Thrillers. I loved reading to myself because I felt comfortable, but I remember being made fun of in junior high because I stuttered while trying to read audibly. I lost all my interest in reading and since then I could never get hooked on book in order to read it all the way through.
