Write a narrative from your school experience that encapsulates an important lesson you and perhaps others were able to learn. How did/has this experience shape(d) you?
I
was taking College Algebra back in June; I was just about to finish my second
week when I got really sick. I tried to
attend the chat session on Thursday, but was too sick to attend. I thought I would complete it the next
day. The next day things got worse, so I
was taken to the emergency room that evening.
After waiting for about three hours, in pain, I was taken back to the
examination room. After several test and
scans the doctors concluded that my appendix had ruptured and I had to have
surgery that night. The doctor took out
my appendix and the pain was gone. I was
in the hospital for another five days in all.
I was worried about school and getting my assignments turned in on
time. The instructor allowed me to turn
in late assignments due to what I had been through, but I was ready to drop the
course. I was behind and felt that I
could not get caught up. In the end I
got caught up with all my assignments and made a 78 on my final grade. I learned that I can do anything I set my
mind on doing. This taught me a valuable
lesson. Do not ever give up on yourself
no matter how bad things look.
