Who is Stephanie Glynn? I, Stephanie Glynn, am an independent, over achiever with many goals. The top accomplishment on my list is to get a scholarship to Our Lady of Holy Cross and go for nursing. I would like to work in the ER, so every day I can save a life and put my imprint in the world. When I help a person, it puts the biggest smile on my face and I want to have the opportunity to do that every day. In my life, much has shaped me to be the person that I am today. For example, I am bullied and have been for many years. I kept it to myself and let it grow worse. Then, last year I found a teacher that I felt I could trust and told this teacher everything that had and was still happening. Through that experience, I felt better.

When my parents split around fourth grade, I changed. I began to rapidly gain weight and could not lose it because of my family’s history. I also became very anti-social and stayed in my room with a vow of silence that I put on myself. One last thing that I believe shaped me not growing up understanding the going to Grandma’s for dinner stereotype. Two of my four grandparents, both of my grandpas, passed away before I was born. My mom’s mom passed a few weeks before Katrina and my dad’s mom passed away this past about a year ago during winter break. My family issues, I believe, have shaped me to be able to deal with sorrow and regret. Even though my life isn’t always perfect, I still have many hobbies and interests. Some hobbies I have taken up recently are baking and crocheting. Much of my family loves to bake so baking comes naturally to me; although crocheting, on the other hand, I have been working to learn and become good at this new hobby. Dancing has also been a big part of my life. I danced for nine total years before deciding to quit this year so I can make room for

I met Liam during my Safety Town program in 2014. Liam was four years old, and survived a liver transplant at a very young age which left him with a limited diet. Despite these complications, his energy was unbridled and he understood his situation in a very mature manner. He did not seem to mind that he could not have a popsicle while his friends were enjoying them. Somehow, Liam has become my symbol of perseverance and inspiration to fight my own chronic illness.
Mary Eliza Mahoney was born in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts (Logan & Winston, 2007). This is in the time era of slavery, and the time era when blacks had to face discrimination every day of their lives.

There is very little known about Mary Mahoney’s parents, “North Carolina natives and possibly former slaves at the time who migrated North prior to the civil war seeking a less racially discriminatory environment soon after their marriage”.

I have been bullied many times and sometimes don’t realize that I bully others. I changed when reading your book and realized that I should pay more attention to what I do and say to others. I have taken in many lessons from your book. I finished your book and now I am more determined and have become more positive, and I’ve learned to never give up hope. I learned to get back up and not stay down after getting knocked down, not just in football, but in life.

As a young adult, one of the challenges I faced is bullying. I was bullied in my primary school years, first grade to third, while attending a local school in my home town in Ethiopia. I don’t have a lot of memories from that time frame but I do remember the hardship and constant feel of demotivation. However, I also remember the numerous time my teachers awarded me gift as I would place first in my class.
