My Biggest Accomplishment The biggest accomplishment that I have ever faced in my lifetime would be to overcome the artistic blocks that were forged on my mind. In just this past year I have been able to overcome them all. A year and a half ago i was only permitted to draw and paint with my ability, although that is fantastic, i was not happy. I have opened up my mind to the world. As just an ordinary sophomore, the window to my heart, soul and beliefs was brought out into the world. Whenever i look at an object that may be plain or run down to the regular seeing eye, i produce purpose. Im able to put my thoughts together and imagine something spectacular. For instance, i will go to an ordinary thrift shop or antique store and a regular …show more content…
My art teacher seen something bubbling up inside of me when even myself didn't think something was there. My mind and heart was challenged to then create a portfolio of my very best pieces to alter the perspective of artists high up on the board. Though i was nervous, i did not let it overcome my overall choices. I was able to master the art in ceramics. Doing all the needed projects that everyone else did, i took it to heart more than others. Some rough days, i would be accused by my very own classmates that all i was doing was just being done to impress my art teacher. What my classmates didn't understand is in those moments, is they didn't know that something spectacular was just about to be revealed to their ever so judgmental brains, I have turned my thoughts, feelings, and emotions into the most desirable works of art. Not being able to express myself using my words, i decided to alter all my emotions and what i was currently feeling into a piece that later got me into that Mansfield Art Museum. What you may not know is after being in the Art Museum for a couple months, in the voting booths stationed around the inside of the building,i was nominated by so many individuals that i won third place having the best pieces. It only got me one free class at the Art Museum but it was one of the biggest accomplishments in my life …show more content…
Buker, opened up a world of imagination and ability in my constantly improving mind. She showed me any and every form of art that you wouldn't think even existed. Multiple of my pieces exploded or cracked when i spent excessive hours on them. My heart was ripped out of me and stomped upon on the ground. My eyes turned to waterfalls. I've spent countless nights falling apart over the stress that had built up inside of me due to my constant fear of failure and a mix of all the pieces that had to be submitted. Later on, i excelled incredibly just like how a diamond is formed by so much pressure. Mrs. Buker and I worked together to create pieces that would blow the minds of an regular individual. I learned the importance of art in this time. Do not stress on your pieces, art knows your feelings, thoughts, and especially when you are scared. This is what creates it to break, fracture, or
One of the biggest accomplishments that I feel I have achieved is being a captain for my soccer team when I was in grade 9 (overseas). Back when I was in Ethiopia, soccer was one of the biggest things we loved growing up. Soccer was the only thing available as a sport in our school, so being a captain of a team was kind of a big deal. My time as a captain taught me a lot of things about what being in a position of power means.
A personal accomplishment that I am proud of is when I got all A’s throughout the school year and made the honor roll for the first time, the reason why this is an accomplishment because I never made the honor roll in any of my school years, this was major for me because I proved a lot of people who thought I could never get an A in school or even make the honor roll because of my past grade point average.
From small stick figures, to cartoon characters, to more realistic anatomy and detailed work. This only happened because of my dedication and constant practice with a pencil and paper. Though I do not consider myself the best artist, I became proud of my growth and motivation that branched out to other aspects of my life. This habit of practicing led me to take challenging courses and pursue other passions, like music. Though music seems a little minor in my life, it runs through the family, and I could never be where I am without the practice time I put in both my passions. The small details I picked up from them have helped me immensely in school. From motivation to not give up and the extra effort to understand the material, I created a process of how to do things, and I found myself grateful for the times where I felt lost, and found my way back. Through art, I found my sense of self and the motivation to excel and challenge myself in everything I
My most meaningful accomplishments is my participation in Student Council, band, and making good grades. These things have taught me how to work with a team and to never give up whenever a situation becomes difficult. Being a part of Student Council and band has given me great people skills and has taught me that
My greatest accomplishment is my family. It may not seem like an accomplishment to most people, but in my eyes it is huge. I had the impression growing up that if my parents did not seem happy, how could I ever possibly make marriage work for me. By the late 1980’s when I was in high school, I swore I would never marry and never have kids. Eventually I did change my mind, reluctantly I might add. We as humans learn to live by example and my parents were not always the best examples. I come from a military family, my father was in the Navy for 23 years. Leaving my Mom to raise my younger brother and me. So every three years we felt like a single parent family when sea duty rolled around. I always felt like my Father choose to leave us when he went on a cruise for six month. Now I understand that it was a necessity in order for my parents to stay together. In a since, what I’m saying is the separation eventually made us a better family. The heart sometimes needs to miss someone in order to know how it feels about them. Sometime my Mother and I both wish my Father would go away for a little while. I would not object to him take my husband with him as long as they come back. The one person who was able to get me to consider settling down was a former Marine. That I’m still married to after ten years and three children.
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). When I first received the news I had failed it was a terrible feeling, and I felt like a complete failure. Though, after retaking my physical and passing - I felt
I have not had a single accomplishment that is worth writing about but I feel that my college completion will be one accomplishment that I will be most proud. I feel that I am taking one step forward in life that will make me become a more successful person.
An accomplishment is defined as something that has successfully been completed. Accomplishments can shape a person into who they are. Some may help make the community a better place. On top of all of that though, an accomplishment can make a person feel like they can do anything; like they have made themselves a better person by doing what they did. Personally, my accomplishments have made me feel better about myself; they have changed my outlook on life.
A personal accomplishment that I am proud of is losing a considerable amount of weight. All throughout my life I accepted the fact that I was overweight, and did nothing about it. I remember when some of my closest friends made jokes about how I was overweight, embarrassing me in front of my class, but all I did was absorb their negativity. I had always wanted to eat healthier and lose weight, but I never worked towards my dream. By my junior year, I had a job, a car, and a driver's license, so I was able to afford a gym membership and transportation there every day. After I bought my gym membership, I went every day after school with three of my friends. We were all new, so it was a learning experience from the beginning. One of my first days
Fellow students of Nobles, imagine you finally reach the summit of a mountain you had been planning to climb for three years now: a time when you physically pushed yourself so hard that your body no longer cooperates, but you were able to keep going anyway. What about the feeling of doing well on a test after giving up six hours of your last weekend to studying for it? Even something as simple as crossing the last item off of your to-do list produces the same feeling. I’m know we have all felt this euphoria at some point. Nothing is more rewarding than completing goals you set for yourself.
During my life I had some accomplishments. But, I will tell you the truth I cannot call them as my great accomplishments. At this point of my life I had the two greatest events. My first event was my high school graduation. The second event, which was the biggest and the most unforgettable was my wedding day.
Over the past ten years I have accomplished a lot. These accomplishment have helped me to grow as a person and help me be able to do what I love. My first goal that I set out to accomplish was graduating from Temple University with a Bachelors Degree in Early Childhood Education.
My biggest accomplishment in school is when I graduated high school early despite what others said. I decided that public high school was not for me, because of all of the distractions I had. So I begged my mom to transfer me to butterflied high school. I went one time a week to meet with my teacher were I turned in all my homework and took my tests. I feel that going
My parents always tell me how proud they are of me and all i’ve accomplished in my life at such a young age. I’ve always been known as the “responsible one”, or the “smart one” out of all my friends. I’ve always been the one to remind my friends about tests or reports that are due, and they always ask what they would do without me.
