Growing up as an only child I made out pretty well. You almost can’t help but be spoiled by your parents in some way. And I must admit that I enjoyed it; my own room, T.V., computer, stereo, all the material possessions that I had. But there was one event in my life that would change the way that I looked at these things and realized that you can’t take these things for granted and that’s not what life is about.

Tracing the Legacy: My Unique Name Story
632 Words | 2 Pages
My first name Jakob is unique and different because everybody I’ve met with the same first name spells it with a “c” instead of “k”. I like my first name because Jacob is a very common name. My name throws people off spelling it with a “k” because its pronunciation is the same both ways. Also, my mom named me after Jacob, who was Isaacs’s son in the Old Testament and the father of the twelve founders of the twelve tribes of Israel. The initial J in my name stands for John. My mother named me after my grandpa because she has always looked up to her father as a positive role model. If I would’ve been a girl my first name would have been Brenna because that was my mom’s favorite aunt. I’m very thankful I was a boy because I like the name Jakob way better than Brenna.

One of my most favorite memories is when my boyfriend took me to Hawaii to celebrate my birthday. It was the first time for both of us to visit the islands.

The room was extremely quiet, faintly hear my brother snoring in the room across me. The raindrops on my window were starting to multiply, the sky becoming darker. I was worried. I didn’t know if this was the right thing to do, but I reassured myself that everything would work out. I grabbed my old bag that my mother bought me as a gift for Christmas. It was leather, built with sturdy straps and two slots with zippers that could fit almost everything inside. I grabbed the polished keys from my dresser, opening the window ever so slightly.

My most memorable family vacation took place two years ago. We went to Corsica, a French island situated in the south of France right next to Italy. I remembered waking up early excited to visit this new land. Used to take long flights, I was surprised to arrive to the destination after a one-hour flight. Even though the flight was short for me, it was stressful for my mom, she has never felt secured in a plane, probably due to the fact that she is afraid of height. When finally arrived at the destination, the dry and warm weather was there to welcome us. We all felt relief, and knew that this was the beginning of the summer.
