I remember my mom telling me about why she named me Kiersten all because she didn’t like the name Kirsten. My full name is Kiersten Marie Mann. Kiersten means follower of Christ. Marie means-Many believe it to mean "sea of bitterness" or "sea of sorrow.” Mann means- a surname of Germanic Origin. My mom tells me all the time that if I came out as a boy they would've named me Harry like hairy man, but good thing I came out as a girl. I never liked my last name growing up because everyone would call me a man but no one does anymore, luckily. I don’t like my first name either, I always thought it didn’t fit in. I am Kiersten Mann and I have made a lot of goals for now and my future like, this year I will get better grades, speak up, not be …show more content…
I look up to her because she does things that most people can’t do. She is very smart and pretty but has her bad days where she will stress out because of college. She goes to Ohio State and that inspires me to do good and one day be in a good college like that. She inspires me because she’s one of a kind, one of a kind means everything to everyone but to me she’s just my loving sister. Me and my sister have some bad times and good times but we still love each other. My sister is seriously studying to become a doctor because she looks up to my mom. Over the summer she was working with the UC football players and keeping track of if they're doing good on their health. She will become a well known doctor one day forsure! I also look up to my sister because me and her are very much alike, we like to do the same things all the time and we usually are out with our friends and sometimes just laying in bed …show more content…
When were at Cali we had to wait for our bags then go get a rental car, so we did that then we went to my mom’s friend’s house and we stayed there until Thursday. Some fun things we did was go to Disney, we went for 2 or 3 days in a row and we road a lot of fun rides but one ride called Splash Mountain ( I think ) it broke down and we were very excited to ride that one too. After the 2-3 days of Disney we went to SeaWorld which was really cool and exciting to see but kinda sad cause all the animals are trapped in the cages but I’m pretty sure most of them were born there anyways. On the last day we went to the California zoo which wasn’t that exciting because it was like the Cincinnati zoo just with some over animals but it was nice that you could take a ride around the i’m pretty sure it was called something with carrier in the name but it took you around the park instead of walking up and down all the hills they have. When I was home we all took naps because we didn’t get home until 6 in the morning, but when we all took naps we went to a Fourth of July party then right after I immediately went to my best friend Lexi’s
Family means the world to me in every aspect, but a person that means even more then that is my sister, Jordan. She paved my life for me without me knowing; she is always there for me and believes in me when I do not believe in myself. Jordan and I very similar in the way that if we had the chance to do everything together we would take every opportunity we could get. How our relationship developed was like every pair of young sisters, we did not get along very well when we were younger because we took the days we had together for granted. The day she left for college is when it really hit me that she was the biggest inspiration in my life. What made us as close was going through our parent’s divorce, it was a life changing experience, and I would have never gotten
there we went to the San Diego Zoo which was pretty cool because it was my first time going.
I was given the name Chase Andrew Miner. My mom had liked the name Chase and Chance, but she finally decided on Chase. While that decision wasn’t too hard for her to make, (at least she said it wasn’t) my last name, Miner, was an even easier decision. My mom was married to my dad and she took his last name, so the obvious last name would be Miner. My mom told me she had a really difficult time figuring out a middle name for me. She couldn’t find a name that fit in well. One day my aunt, Lori, called my mom and asked about the name Andrew. My mom had thought about it and she decided that that name fit. So from that day I was Chase Andrew Miner. The joke my mom says now is if she knew she’d have to chase me so much, she would have named me Slow. But word got around of what
While I was a kid my family and I used to go on bike rides all the time to anywhere you could think of. We would go boating everyday in the summer. We would ski, wakeboard, go tubing and many more. Go tubing was one of the funniest memories I have boating because the thrill you get is unbeatable trying to hold on for dear life. Anothering thing we did as a family was go on vacation everywhere. The road trips were always fun because we would bring our dog turbo. The one trip that will never be forgotten is North Carolina. We go there every year with family friends and it will be a trip on go on with my kids.
Everyday we ventured to the different beaches in San Diego, La Jolla, Coronado, and Pacific Beach. At La Jolla we got to see the fascinating seals, which smelled horrific, and you could walk next to them while on the coves. While we were at Coronado we relaxed on the beach, took a dip in the water, and played paddleball. Pacific Beach is where we had the most fun because that's where my sister and I spent most of our time and we got to boogie board and
We packed up and went back to our rooms. Girls went swimming in the pool, and the guys went out to the piers fishing. Since it was my first time well i didn't know how to fish but I learned. One person caught a small shark, another caught a huge fish what kind i don't know. And many other men in my group and others were catching fishes the ones catching the small fishes were getting thrown back in. And that was the end of our Saturday night fishing till dawn. Came Sunday morning before check out well we had to pack up and load the vehicle's not to go home but leave before kicking us out our room. We all went out looking for a place to have lunch. After driving around stopping at gas stations asking where was it good to eat at we FINALLY all decided on a spot Charlotte Plummer's Seafood right off the ocean. The salad bar was great anything you could possibly think of. My plate consisted of fried fish, fried oysters, and fried shrimp. I could say it was pretty delicious and worth every penny. After lunch we visited the gifts shops that were across the street. Bought souvenirs to bring back to remember this great vacation spent with my loved ones. And had to visit K-mart since San Antonio doesn't have one. Pretty much as i remembered it. Minus the food court yard they had. Still had pretty good sells good clearances. Which my girlfriend enjoyed and at the same time saved me money. But all good times come to an end and ours did. Had to
For this project I interviewed Kevin Engle from our class who sat right next to me the day we were assigned the project. It turns out that Kevin was never intended to have his first name be what it is. He was initially going to be called Kyle or Kasey, but his parents felt that his first name was a good name in between those names for him to have. It is actually interesting because his brother’s name is Jake which meant that his parents named their kids from oldest to youngest in alphabetical order. Kevin’s last name comes from Germanic origins and is actually a translation for angel in German. Despite this, Kevin’s family is not entirely from Germany and has its roots blended with a mix of European culture from Germany to England as well as
I went to Disney World we went with my aunt, grandma and grandpa. We went on lots of fun rides I really enjoyed it. Another summer we started PKSA karate I am still doing it today.
My parents were set on girl names; if I was a girl, my name would be Lauren, after my Grandpa Loren. Thinking of a middle name became a little difficult. My mom’s mom name was MariLee, and my parents wanted to take something from her name. Finally making a decision, they chose to take the “Lee” out as my middle name. Naming a boy would be a little different; my parents wanted the name Dalton. The only reason behind that is because my mom liked the name; I beg to differ.
Names will always be different for everyone. They all come from a different backstory or a different meaning and my name is no exception. Although my first name doesn’t provide anything interesting about me, I know I have several stories discussing my middle and last name. From all the long and amazing
We woke up early on the second day and got ready, we loaded back up and headed to Disney World. We all were so excited, even if we were already burned. I don't remember much of Disney World but i remember see all of my characters and getting my Mini Mouse hat that had a veil and a crown on it. It was pink and I had made papaw wear it for me. Heather and Sara fought like always with Sierra coming into the fight to calm them down. We rode rides and laughed a lot even though we were all very hot, it was at least 96
Once we got to San Antonio we got lost for about 15 minutes because of a road contruction. It was fun with my girls we were singing, talking about there school and we saw diffrent park attractions and all kinds of other places. Finally at around 11:30 a.m we got to Harlingen, Texas at my sisters house safe and sound. But that didn't stop us , once we got there we just picked up my sister and my nephew and we headed to the beach of South Padre Island. We were almost there because you can start to smell the fresh salt water and see the big 2 mile stretch of the bridge. Once we arrived we parked right by the water on the sand. My girls just got off my car and started running towards the waves of water. Me and my sister watched while my nephew and my girls were splashing in the water. We really enjoyed that day. We had a barbeque and played volley ball, relaxed on top of a float in the
Names mean a lot. They give a means for others to identify us and may have a rich history that provides clues to a person’s ancestry. Some parents name their children after a family member, historical figure, or for other important reasons. Sadly, my name wasn’t chosen for any of those reasons. My parents found it in a baby name book and decided they liked it.
My sister thought of my name when I was a newborn. At the time she was really into a book series called The Babysitters Club, and there was this one character that was named Christie. My sister loved her name so much that she suggested the character’s name to our parents. They agreed, but they wanted to change the Ch into a K. So that is how I got Kristie as my name. I am the type of person who is very quiet and reserved who does not like to talk to people that much.
