Being A First Generation College Student
Being a first generation college student is a heavy load to carry due to the constant reminder of
having to be a good role model for my siblings. Children of immigrants are often highly expected
to excel in their academics and to be involved in extracurricular activities. His/her parent
immigrated to the "Land of The Free" in order to receive a better life and to give their children a
place to call home. They work from one to two jobs a week just so that we can dig through the
pantry, and raid the refrigerator. We sometimes take our parents for granted unknowingly, and
constantly fill our heads with a question that we all seem to ask. "How do I please my parents?",
"What do I have to do to make them happy?". As students we should all be voicing "College!".
Yes, maybe our folks's dreams have faded away, however that should be our motivation to aim
higher; to achieve our American Dream. Throughout our years of education, our very own
relatives and teachers have emphasized on the importance of receiving a higher education. I have
come to realize that I should not be asking myself "How do I please my parents?". Instead, "How
do I please myself?", "What will my lifetime goals be?", "Will it leave my parents hard work in
vain?". Obtaining a higher education will not impact their lives, but will affect yours drastically. My
American Dream has always been to become an immigration lawyer that deals with international
relations or to become a professor teaching my true passion for

First Person Narrative Essay
The first–person narrative is a story told from the first–person perspective. The narrator is speaking
directly about him or herself. The first–person narrator can be either subjective or objective. The
third–objective narrative is a story told by a nonparticipating character. The narrator is usually
detached from the story. Sometimes, the narrator completely penetrates the mind of a character.
Third–person narration is often used in documentaries. The omniscient narrators are often not part of
the story but are all–knowing observers. These narrators tell the reader all the facts we need to know
to fully understand the story. Since the woman thinks that she is seeing a ghost, I would use the
first–person narration. This way the camera can capture all the action through her eyes and
emphasizes her fear....show more content...
The story might be told by a group of people or just one person. For instance, the story can be
created by the producers, the directors, and the writers working together. However, in a film with
voice–over narrative, the off–screen narrator is usually also a character in the story but not always.
The narration in realist movies is almost invisible. The story unfolds by itself in a chronological
order. The narration in classical movies is more obvious. There is a discreet storyteller who help
direct the story and keep everything on track. In formalist movies, the narrator is manipulative. The
narrator often destroys the chronological order of the story and restructures events to emphasize a
point. The narration in The Usual Suspects is conspicuous. Verbal Kint is the narrator as well as
one of the main characters in the film. He is manipulative because the story is told from Verbal's
point of

Personal Narrative: First Person Encounters
I have a confession to make. I do not play multiplayer first person shooters. To be more accurate, I
don't play multiplayer at all if I can help it. I'm the sort of gamer that likes to keep to himself.
Gaming for me is about escaping the real world for a few hours and becoming someone other than
my normal self. I find I best achieve this in vast, open–world RPG's and strong story driven games. I
find if I am playing an MMO game like World of Warcraft and MamaMia66 comes across my path,
this kinda breaks the immersion for me.
This has all changed for me in recent weeks. When Battlefield 1 launched I thought I would play it
for the single player campaign, as I heard it was pretty brutal and really well thought out short stories

First Person Narrative Major Depression Disorder (MDD) My name is (student name) and I am
29 years old, living with my spouse in a rented place and working in a Bank as a relationship
executive. We knew each other very well before getting married and used to see each other in
college. We got married about two years back and my wife immediately wanted kids but we have
not yet conceived although the doctor says everything is normal. I think it all started when I was
a little boy, when my dad deserted us for a younger woman leaving us vulnerable and financially
weakened. I started to hate my dad and looked up to my working mother who was raising us as
well as doing two day jobs. I am the eldest son with three siblings, a brother and two sisters. My
Mother did a lot for us but the stress of work and raising us got to her and with time she became
ultra self righteous, controlling and demanding (Becker et al., 2008). I started working from the
age of 18 in a restaurant as a waiter and used to help my mom in running finances of the house and
well being of siblings. I met my spouse in college and brought her home to meet my mother;
Mother disliked her without many reasons and wanted me to leave her or leave her house
immediately. I stayed with my mother for the next six months but later on I got married to the same
girl and moved out. This action enraged my mother saying that she didn't want to see my face and
that I should not be present at her funeral. To make sure

Essay On A Single Story
My ideas and thoughts about Africa had been changed after I listened to Adichie's speech. The
way she described the danger of a single story was very inspiring to me, and I could relate many of
the experiences I had to her story. I was born in Pakistan and moved to the U.S. in 2007. When I
came to the U.S. I lived in Virginia and went to Freedom Hill ElementarySchool. On the first day of
school I sat next to an Indian kid named Sai and he didn't want to sit next to me he told the
teacher that are countries didn't like each other so he wanted to sit somewhere else, but are
teacher said she didn't want to hear any of it. So during the year we had to work on many things
as partners, and we got along great we had many things in common and at the end of the year we
became pretty good friends. At the beginning he probably heard some things about my country
and he just assumed that I was the person he heard from those stories, and after meeting me he
had a different understanding of it. Soon after the year ended my dad found a better job in
California so we moved here. I lived in Alameda and went to wood middle. The school I went to
was very diverse and this time I wasn't the only Muslim...show more content...
This quote does help me understand Adichie's story I understand where she was coming from. You

said was "They make one story become the only story.(13:23)" People only heard one thing about
the Middle East and never looked at it from the other side, and many people continue to believe that

I Am A First Generation College Student Essay
I am a first generation college student that has made it to a higher education. I see myself as the
second daughter, that has come out the land of pride and production. I am from Richmond,
California, but that's just where I geographically from, when in reality I came from a strong family
of immigrants. My parents both came to the United States as a young 26, and 24–year–old parents of
one child. I did not come until two years later that I came, I came into the world, and was already
marked with the name of an anchor baby. As I grow up I did not really know what I was, what I
did was always question myself, am I just a reason to keep my parents here longer? Why am I
called an anchor baby? I felt that I did not fit in but my schools I went to school always had a
mixture of students. I did not know what I was or who I was, I had not direct connection to any
ethnicity. When I was in elementary school there where a mixture of Whites, Asians, Latinos, and
African Americans ethnicities, grow up in a multicultural area I didn't think about race or class as
much as late in life. Race was a topic that I did not really think and talked about until I was placed
into a private school that class was visible, and I began to be more aware or class and race. I
would not talk about race or class at school, but I would wait to talk about it when I would get
home. At the time I did not know what race really meant, I thought the race was just like ethnicity, I
did not even think about race as

First Person Narrative
On March 4th, 2005 I sat in Mrs. Musser's first grade class. I talked with my friend Olivia Thacker,
like I did everyday. We talked about boys; how smelly they were and how we would never have
boyfriends. We talked about our sisters who were also friends, and we talked about our parents.
However, that year we mostly talked about my mother. Around 2:45, my sister, Lauren and I, would
walk to the farthest end of the school. That end of the school was filled with the bigger kids and I
was always scared to walk on that side. My sister who was in second grade at the time, always
walked with me, so I had some protection. Anyways, we walked out the doors to the student

We drove for what seemed hours to my six year old self. When we arrived in the parking lot of the
hospital, which I can never remember the name of, he told us why we were there. Lauren threw a
fit, screaming and crying like someone was hurting her. She shouted "I never wanted him". I
believe that is still to this day the biggest lie she has ever told. We walked up to the big glass
hospital doors, and straight through them to the elevator. I waited and waited for what seemed
forever until the big silver doors opened, and my dad showed us which way to go. We walked
past room after room listening to the crying and sometimes laughter. Finally, we got to the right
room and we walked in. There sat my mother on a hospital bed. She didn't seem hurt or in pain,
but they said it was happening fast. At one point my mother's father (Poppy) took us down to the
cafe, and all I remember is that hospitals have very good spaghetti. My Poppy got a phone call and
all of the sudden we were on the move, going through the halls like there was a fire we were trying
to escape from. When we got back to my mother's hospital room, everyone looked so upset; their
faces, eyes and cheeks were red and

Unit 1: Classification Essay Phylis Gotlieb is a Canadian poet from Toronto that was also known
for her science fiction novels, and was often called the mother of contemporary Canadian science
fiction. The poetry that she wrote, similarly to her short stories and novels, often dealt with
relationships, the wonders of the natural universe, human psychology and the importance of
remembering historical roots. One of her poems, "First Person Demonstrative", deals with the
theme of unrequited or secret love that is never acted upon. This theme reoccurs in many other
works in many other media, which is dealt with differently in each work. There are a few examples
that can be used to explore this theme, including: "If There Be Sorrow", a short...show more content...
Alighieri's devotion to Beatrice is portrayed in the painting as Dante kneeling before Beatrice, as
if praying to her. Dante's love for Beatrice was divine and unconditional, and was eternally
honoured by his portrayal of Beatrice, the guide to Dante in Heaven in his most famous work of
literature, "The Divine Comedy". Why did Dante never let his love for Beatrice be known? As
per tradition, wealthy Italian families' children would be betrothed from early childhood, and
Dante was promised to marry the daughter of a family friend before he met Beatrice at age nine.
Also, Dante's love for Beatrice was never intended to be known, which was common in the 14th
century, and was called "courtly love." The painting is describing the moment Beatrice first
spoke to Dante, nine years after their first meeting, as described in Alghieri's poem "La Vita
Nuova". It would be out of line for Dante to profess his love for Beatrice, as she was a divine
being that was too perfect for the world they lived in. Dante never expected Beatrice to answer his
affections, and even in "The Divine Comedy" Dante only honours Beatrice's perfection, but never
asks Beatrice to acknowledge his love. In the painting, this is shown in Beatrice's indifferent, but
graceful visage, and Dante's gaze, which is void of desire, but full of admiration. Beatrice was

My First Being Independent : My Life
I am who I am by the people I am surrounded by and my life experiences. I am Maggie, born and
raised in Burlington, Wisconsin. I am your average young women just trying to live life to the
fullest one day at a time. Based off my personality inventories, I chose three things that best
describe me. The first being independent. Over the span of my life, I never wanted to accept
myself or believe in myself until I was around 17 years old. I began to understand that this is who
I am so I won't change. I started to accept my style, my opinion, my choices, and the struggles I
have gone through. I began to be emotionally independent. I stopped depending on people to help
me up when I was down, and I found ways to help myself and to make myself happy. The second
word that would best describe me is hard–working. I am currently working a full–time job, going to
school full time, and trying to find a social life somewhere in between. I don't like things done the
easy way. When I get myself involved in something I will keep working until there is nothing left
to be worked on. I like being a hard worker because I know it is a good quality to have. The third
word that would best describe me is straight–forward. There are times, where this gets me in trouble
with my parents or the relationships I am in. This is something that I have developed while I was
growing to be the person I am today. Being straightforward is something that I like and dislike about
myself. I tell it how it is in

My Experience At The First Time
Sitting in class for the first time, it was half of what I expected. I expected to sit by people I didn't
know, learn about old things in new lights, and writing a lot of papers. What I didn't expect was me
hating college. I am not as creative as some teaches would like, but that isn't my personality, and I
dint want it to be either. I fully expected college to try and morph me into a perfect little student
that I knew I wasn't. College so far to me hasn't been fun and I will treat it like Wal–Mart. When I
say that, I mean that I will get in and get out as fast as possible. If I pick up stuff along the way then
alright, but if I don't, then it won't kill me.
Now, this doesn't mean I don't enjoy certain things about college. I enjoy some of my classes and I
like that the campus has a variety of plants. I also like that it has some nice people and is
accompanied with a Student Bible Center. Many people say I just need to loosen up, get over it, or
try to get in organizations around campus. This may be true when talking about some students,
but not me. I know exactly who I am and what I like and I for one do not like joining organizations,
I am not a loose person and I never will be, and I have already gotten over that I don't like college.
I have read a lot of material in college and very few of them were interesting. I have learned a lot of
old things in new light in history and some material taught me to ignore different people. Now, that
may not have been the purpose of

My First Essay: The Florida Everglades
Probably the main reason i wrote this is because this was the first essay i ever made. I did not really
spell anything write either or did not use any quotes. I can always remember the first day of school
because it was really blurring in my mind. When i thought of it i could really not think of it clearly
probably because it was my first day and i was really nervous well this is the first essay i ever made

The First Type Of A Person Essay
An individual can be one of three types of people when he is trying to remember someone. The
first type is someone who would off the bat recognize the other person as being familiar, but just
cannot recall that person's name in that exact moment. The second type would be someone who
recognizes the person by name, but would not recognize him when he sees him in person. The
third type is the person would be the star individual who could correctly recognize the person and
confidently greet the person by name. The majority of my friends, as well as myself, often lean
towards the first type of person. The feeling that the word, such as the name of a person, is within
grasp, but for some reason, you are incapable of verbalizing the word is known as the
tip–of–the–tongue phenomenon. It is also frequently referred to as its abbreviated name: TOT.
More often than not, we are used to hearing about your parents or someone older who you know
experiencing episodes of forgetting where they placed items, such as their car keys, are. As
troublesome as it may be, it is merely a symptom of growing older.
As we age, our memory will start to deteriorate along with our youthful appearance, causing us to
have a harder time to recall information, such as names. Information lasting more than 30 seconds in
your mind gets moved from your working memory to your long–term memory where it is stored for
the rest of your life. Psychologists believe long–term memory is unlimited whereas short–term or

First Impressions Essay
First impressions are always used in setting the tone when you first meet someone. Without the
luxury of knowing the persons background, you initially judge someone by the way that person
introduces themselves and how they come across to you. By coming across, I mean the way a
person carries themselves. For example, if the person comes across as shy and introverted, you
tend to think of that person as timid and somewhat weak. However, if that same person comes
across as outgoing, confident (but not to confident) and easy to talk to, you look at that person as
someone you can count on and possibly a leader. This type of evaluation (even though we all do it)
is for the most part not always the right way to evaluate a person.

"If you get off on the wrong foot, the relationship may never be completely right again. It's easier to
rebuild trust after a breach if you already have a strong relationship." (Live Science. 2009)
This Study verified that your first impressions are lasting and can directly affect your personal or
working relationships. It was also very interesting that if you have already made that first
impression and have developed a level of trust, the outcome is different. The same betrayal of trust
in this case can be rebuilt, as long as the first impression was positive and the relationship was a
good one. Therefore, that good first impression that your parents are always harping on, (they are
pretty smart after all) is a really important aspect of life.
To reinforce the reading assignment, "Leadership and Human Behavior" first impressions do affect
our behavior. (Leadership & Human Behavior. 2011) The affect on human behavior and first
impressions is directly affected by the Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. (Maslow. 1970) Dependant
on how many of your basic needs have been met directly affects your first impression. For
example, in the first story, "John is an Extrovert", my first impression of John was that he was an
outgoing employee, happy with his job and had many friends. This type of person would be great
for your company and would be able to

Bryson First Person
In the story A Walk in the Woods Bryson writes in two out of three of the different kinds of forms;
First and Second. First person is when the author writes using words like "you". Second person is
when the author writes using words like "I." Bryson also uses humor throughout the story to make
hiking during a story more interesting and exciting for the readers. While he does this it makes you
wonder what is actually real or if it is just his imagination.
In the beginning Bryson writes in second person. After I read the short story I found out that second
person is not as interesting as first or third person because they make you believe that they are
talking to you when they are not. Second person is where you write from inside the story but...show

This makes the story way more interesting and easier to understand. First person makes it more
interesting person because it gives us a way into Bryson's head and feelings. First person is easier to
understand because it does not say you which makes you think that the narrator is talking to you
when they are not. First person is the type of writing a lot of authors use to connect with main
character with the readers. When Bryson switched over to first person we learned more about what he
thought about hiking, Katz, the maps, and how the weather was affecting his hiking trip. Bryson
thought that it was going to be a nice weekend until he went up the mountains to find out that it was
not going to be as nice as he thought. Bryson also thought that the weather would also make the
hiking trip more interesting for Katz. Throughout the whole short story Bryson uses humor to make
the story more interesting for his readers. At the beginning Bryson says that they walked hour upon
hour, over rollercoaster hills, along knife–edge ridges and grassy balds, through depthless ranks of
oak ash, chinkapin, and pine. Humor is used right here because he over exaggerates about the ridges
being like knife–edges and depthless ranks of trees that they walked through. Nevertheless we can
tell that Bryson has a sense of humor and likes to use it to make his stories more

"It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."At one point in his
short story, "Big Two–Hearted River: Part II", Hemingway's character Nick speaks in the
first person. Why he adopts, for one line only, the first person voice is an interesting question,
without an easy answer. Sherwood Anderson does the same thing in the introduction to his work,
Winesburg, Ohio. The first piece, called "The Book of the Grotesque", is told from the
first person point of view. But after this introduction, Anderson chooses not to allow the first person
to narrate the work. Anderson and Hemingway both wrote collections of short stories told in the
third person, and the intrusion of the first person...show more content...
Nick tries as hard as he can, but the fish snaps the line and escapes. Then, as Nick thinks about the
fate of the trout which got away, Hemingway writes, "He felt like a rock, too, before he started
off. By God, he was a big one.
By God, he was the biggest one I ever heard of." This sudden switch to first–person narration
is startling to the reader. Until this point Hemingway had solely used third person narration, but he
did it so well that the reader feels as one with Nick. It is not definite whether this is Nick or
Hemingway speaking. It could easily be either of the two.
Hemingway doesn't include, "he thought," or, "he said to himself," and so it
is unclear. The result is the same regardless. Using first person narration at this point serves to make
the story more alive, more personal. It jolts the reader into realizing the humanity of Nick; he is
no longer the object of a story but a real person. If Nick is making so much stir over it that he
speaks directly to the reader, he must feel passionately about it. Or if Hemingway is so moved by
the size of the trout that he exclaims at its size, I can only accept that Nick also feels this excitement.
The sudden intrusion of the first person narrator makes the story more complete and its only
character more life–like. It also brings the reader into the story as a listener. Sherwood Anderson's
collection of short stories, Winesburg,

The deliberate choice to have an anonymous first person narrative in The Invisible Man serves as a
way for the audience to intimately delve into the thoughts of the narrator without the barrier of an
identity coming between text and reader while the breaking of the fourth wall at the end of the
novel explicitly connects reader to text to imbue the moral of the story into the audience. The novel
very closely follows a nameless African American male that travels pre–Civil Rights Movement
America simply following his dreams of being able to make a living with relatable, very human
conflicts that can resonate with a myriad of groups. In short, his life experiences describe the trials
of coming of age, going off to college, disappointment, the...show more content...
Cleverly, Ralph Ellison had only a handful of instances where the narrator needed to state his
name, and when it was needed to be said, simple lines similar to "I gave them my name" or "I
heard my name" are uttered in place. More often than not, in a story the struggles of the
protagonist are that character's issues, a character with a name, identifiable, and separate from the
reader, but one cannot pinpoint who exactly the narrator is. Granted, some information is given
like the ethnicity, relative age, location, but the omission of a name omits the opportunity for that
disconnect from reader to character found in other novels. For example, the reader can't simply
call the narrator "man", or "he", or "narrator" without feeling a lack of fulfilment with that title
given, so the last option is to simply accept the anonymity and read as though the reader shares
every mannerism and experience with the words printed onto the page; every issue, every scorn,
every bit of dialogue, every detail is the reader's for better or for

Essay First Impressions
In every first encounter with another person, we make judgments about them almost immediately
based on a few simple factors. In the first few seconds upon meeting a new acquaintance we will
take in and subconsciously process their age, choice in style of clothes, hair, their posture and the
way that they carry themselves. In that short time we will form subconscious opinions about them
based on our own personal prejudices and bias. After the first initial visual judgment we generally
move into the physical greeting. In western culture we will shake the hand of a person we have just
initially met and this simple act will be the next test for our minds to run on this person. We will
judge the character of their grip, whether it is a...show more content...
However, if the first impression was not a pleasant one we will likely experience some
apprehension or fear at the prospect of encountering that person again. As the relationship
continues it is possible to change your opinion of the person, but that first impression is nearly
indelible, and it would take some extreme effort to alter. In the article "First Impressions" (Clark,
2010) we are first presented with a story entitled "John is an Extrovert" (Clark, 2010). This title is
the first piece of the picture that I will build for John, and it immediately begins the process that
my mind goes through to categorize John. When he is labeled an "extrovert" (Clark, 2010) I
immediately assume that he is a happy, outgoing individual and he will be pleasant to talk to and
interact with. Now I have some expectations for John, and when he "entered the store which was
full of people" (Clark, 2010) there is no reason for me to expect him to be apprehensive. This
assumption is validated when I read "John talked with an acquaintance while he waited for the
clerk to catch his eye. On his way out, he stopped to chat with a friend who was just coming into
the store" (Clark, 2010). This reinforces John's social competence and his outgoing nature. I begin
to form the idea that he knows a lot of people and that he has a lot of friends. "On his way back to
the office he met a girl who he had

The Use of First Person Narration in The Cask of Amontillado
Edgar Allen Poe's tale of murder and revenge, "The Cask of Amontillado", offers a unique
perspective into the mind of a deranged murderer. The effectiveness of the story is largely due to its
first person point of view, which allows the reader a deeper involvement into the thoughts and
motivations of the protagonist, Montresor. The first person narration results in an unbalanced
viewpoint on the central conflict of the story, man versus man, because the reader knows very little
about the thoughts of the antagonist, Fortunato. The setting of "The Cask of Amontillado", in the dark
catacombs of Montresor's wine cellar, contributes to the story's theme that some people will go
...show more content...
The first person perspective allows the audience only to learn basic information about the antagonist,
Fortunato, and results in a very skewed perspective on the conflict of man versus man. The conflict
centers around the pride and honor of two men, and the lengths that one of the men will go to in
order to defend his honor to the other. Fortunato is portrayed as a conceited and arrogant man whose
weaknesses are enhanced by the fact that he has had too much to drink. The conflict between the two
men is somewhat one–sided because it is probable that Fortunato was ignorant of the fact that a
serious conflict existed between himself and Montresor until the very end of his life. What one
man likely viewed as a friendly rivalry, the other took as a justification for murder. This story has
an absence of the man versus self conflict which is generally found in a first person story because
the narrator, Montresor, is completely certain of himself and never has an inner conflict doubting his
actions. The dark and eerie tone of the murder story and its unusual setting contribute to the story's
theme of defense of one's honor and avenging wrongdoing. The haughtiness and conceited attitudes
of the two men create an extension of this theme in which Poe wants to show how far some men
will go when they receive a blow to the ego. The story's setting in the

What Is A Rose For Emily Written In First Person
I usually prefer stories written in first person of the story. "A Rose for Emily" is written in first
person by the town's people. "Big Black Good Man" is written in third person. Stories written in
first person you can connect more and put yourself in the story. You have a better understand of
putting the person thoughts and feeling and mixing them with your own. We often use first person
point of view to tell a story about what's going in one's life. You can talk and relate more from
personal experience in a first person narrative. In third person point of view you're speaking about
yourself without using personal nouns. Unlike you would use in a first person narrative.
"A Rose for Emily", was about Miss Emily her father dies she shows

Analysis Of Ponyboy
Point of view: The author uses first person point of view, through the character, Ponyboy. In doing
so, the author can provide the audience with a personal view of the story and to let the audience
get a better sense of a situation. For example, "He was shaking me and I'd wish he'd stop. I was
dizzy enough anyway," describes a first–person view on a situation that the author would want the
reader to grasp in a different way then they would through a third–person narrative (Hinton 6). The
author's purpose was to also give the reader a sense of the character's thoughts and feelings, almost
as if the reader is inside the character's brain. The point of view of the story helps you better
understand the character through indirect characterization through his thoughts and actions and
directly by Ponyboy telling the reader how he acts, looks, or feels. Setting: The setting is extremely
important in this story. It primarily takes place in the greaser's neighborhood and surrounding areas.
The only other setting is in the country on Jay Mountain. The setting in this story is very essential to
the plot. Without the setting, many events would not have happened in the story. For example, the
initiating event where Johnny Stabs Bob would have never have happened if Ponyboy never said,
"Let's walk to the park and back," leading Johnny and him to the park where the socs end up seeing
them (Hinton 52). The author's purpose to make the setting an important literary element was to
help you better understand the plot and understand why certain things happened in the story because
of where they happened. Themes: After Johnny kills Bob, and Johnny and Ponyboy head to Jay
Mountain, the author wants the reader to take away a recurring theme in the story which is loyalty
and friendship. Throughout this story, the author exemplifies many acts of loyalty and friendship.
One of the most important acts was when Ponyboy leaves town with Johnny. Ponyboy could have
easily gone home and ran away from his friend when it got tough, but instead he stuck with him
even when times were hard. "Money. Maybe a gun? A plan. Where in the world would we get these
things?" This shows how Pony's first instinct for when Johnny killed Bob was to help
