Once upon a time, in the borough of brooklyn, the park slope section, lived a royal family. This family ruled the land for generations. Within the blood line they share, they all produced greatness. They weren't known to be selfish or greedy. They used their talents to help their people. However, they have this horrible family secret. That behind closed door they felt woman were inferior to men. Many daughters have suffered by living in the shadow of their brothers, uncles, and cousins. Yet this all changed when, Princess Tulula decided to break the cycle. She was an amazing dancer, and had a innate passion for helping those with disabilities. However, the queen lola, her mother seem to over-look these amazing abilities due to the fact that her brother Prince Nunu was known to be a athlete. Tulula couldn't embrace and work on her abilities because once Prince Nunu walked into the room the world stopped. However, Tulula is more than aware of her talents. She refuse to wait for the royal family to achieve her goals. But she wasn't pushed to reach her higher potential until she met the duke of sunset, duke alexander. Alexander also from a royal family made tulula aware of her self-worth. With his guidance, tulula left with the duke to long island and began their lives together. She was able to open her own center for the mentally challenge and raise her family unlike way she was brought up.

Strength and Weakness Essay
For the most part, many people have that one particular person they look up to. They admire them so much, that they study them, research their life stories, and sometimes follow in their footsteps. What if you become that person? Someone may take your strengths and weaknesses, and use them as a blueprint to success. Do you know what they are? Do you know what drives you keep going and what holds you back from your better judgment? My strength is my family, and my weakness is loyalty.
I have been blessed with a mother who doesn’t accept the bare minimal. She has went without, and struggled to give me and my two brothers all of life’s possibilities. She has been there through my best as well as my worse. Even if I pull myself in a hole far enough, she has always been there to help me out of it. She is my strength. She raised me to be patient, to love and to always do for the less fortunate. If it wasn’t for her struggle, I wouldn’t have the strength to get through every day.
However, I am my weakness. I am a person who always is there for other as well as a person who may even put other’s needs before my own. In all honestly, that can be my biggest downfall. My loyalty to my love ones is one of my best attributes as well as my worse.
I have seen my best and my worse. However, I know where I want to be and what I have to do to get there. I know that one day someone can come up to me and say you’re idol. So when that day comes I want to prepared and let them know you that you can be your strength as well as your own weakness. No matter what it’s up to you to decide what to do with it.

Strength and Weaknesses
Like MR. Robbins has said "emotions drives you," my emotion toward my nephew, god-sister, and brother whom are mentally disabled is what drives me. To be able to help others who have their disabilities succeed as there teachers and other professionals that have helped my loved ones is what pushes me forward. Right now, I'm a student at Metropolitan College of New York not by choice, but as a finally resort. I took for granted my chance in my previous college to not use all that was given to me. I thought as if I had all the time in world to work on my career and future. However, that isn't the case. Time isn't unlimited and my life is passing me by. When I look into the eyes of my loved ones, I see their disappointment; I know that I not only did I let them down but myself. I know that for me to be in a position where I want, I have to not only put effort but my soul into everything I do. I look at those who stand by me and believe in me, and finally ask for help. I know that I can achieve my goals and if they didn't believe so as well then they wouldn't be pushing me forward. I'm taking every opportunity I receive and using it to push into that door a little bit more. It took me to hit rock bottom to want to get up and move up the ladder in my life.

Self-assessment assignment 1
I chose the Bachelor of Arts in American Urban Studies as my major at MCNY because I felt it gave me a broad expansion of our community into the door of Special Education. Once I obtain my degree, I plan to get my Masters in Special Education concentrating in Inclusive Studies. I feel through this degree will be able to bring the environment and community into my classroom.I want my students will be able to take what they learn in the classroom and use it with their everyday life.
When it comes to computers itself, I am extremely comfortable with them. As for Facebook, I am extremely obsessed; but, I have yet to get into Twitter and other blog sites.
