Sisters
My three older sisters have taught me so much of what I know today. They have shared their secrets and experiences that have given me a larger look on life. They have shaped me into a funny, caring and smart person. We have laughed together and they have distressed me plenty of times. They have cared for m greatly and have made me want to care just as much for other people and aspects of life. They have even helped me with school and taught me to be a hard working person who plans to reach for the stars and achieve my life goals. They protect me from the dangers of life and have shared love with me that I will never forget. I would truly do anything for them.






Mount
Coming to the Mount has also affected me. The education has urged me to keep learning and keep striving for what I am capable of doing. I have learned so many things that I could not learn else where. I have also developed my love for math and other subjects that I will continue to study in college. Along with the education, I have shared laughs an experiences that have changed me. And I have experienced people who are inspirational to keep working toward success.  In Mount I have developed my educational standings. I have also exercised my brain to exhaustion.

Friend
My friend Bridget has lived a challenging life where she had to take care of her mom with ALS. For about 3 years she lived in her house with a diminishing parent whom she could not help cure. She had to make many sacrifices in high school and suffered a lot of emotion stress plus school stress. Her mom recently died over the summer and now she has to imagine her entire life differently without her mom in it. Her mom no longer suffers the struggles of life, but is no longer here to see her graduate, go to college, get married, or have children. It is challenging to imagine a life without a loved one especially a mother and Bridget had to do that at age 17. She has be extremely strong in her situation and is an inspiration for my life and all my hard work and the struggles I will face in life.
