My Life

By cassie_koury

  • My Birth

    I was born on my mom's birthday!

  • My little brother was born

    My little brother, Will, was born on 02/03/04. I was really excited to have a little brother and to be a big sister, since I already had my own big brother and big sister.

  • First Day of Kindergarten

  • My brother left for college

    I was really close with my big brother and was incredibly sad when he left for NC State.

  • Stung by Portuguese Man-of-War Jellyfish

    I was stung by a Portuguese Man-of-War Jellyfish after my 8th birthday and I still have a scar on my leg. This is something that is very unique about me.

  • My sister left for college

    I was really sad when my sister was leaving for college because I had gone from having three siblings at home, to two, and then to one in only a few years.

  • When I got my cat

    I got my first cat, Sally! My dad found her when he was working on a job site and he brought her home. She was just a kitten at the time and was very skinny; we took her to the veterinarian's and they thought she wasn't going to make it, but she did!

  • Mom was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis

  • Mom had a stroke

    My mom developed a blood clot in her brain and then had a stroke because of the blood clot. This really affected me and my family.

  • First Day at Mount Mourne IB

  • Went to the Beach with Nina for the First Time

    I went to the beach with my friend, Nina, and her family for the first time. I've gone to the beach with her and her family almost every year since then.

  • My brother got married

  • My grandfather passed away

    Even though you shouldn't pick favorites, this grandpa was probably mine. I spent a lot of time at his and my grandma's house when I was little and he really influenced who I am as a person.

  • Went to my first concert (5 Seconds of Summer)

    5 Seconds of Summer is probably my favorite band, so I was very excited to see them live! Especially since it was my first concert ever.

  • The Awning Accident

    My friend, Nina, was injured badly in the band accident, and this affected and changed her, me, and many other people, no matter how dramatic it may sound.

  • First Trip out of the Country

    I left the country for the first time last year. My family and I went to Canada for a few days and stayed in a hotel that overlooked Niagara Falls.

  • My grandparents' deli closed

    My grandparents' deli was a huge part of my childhood and had a greatly influenced who I am.

  • The Day of My Art Auction

    This was the day I hosted my art auction for my personal project. I was so happy to have finally accomplished my goal.

  • My Second Concert

    I went to see Andy Black with Nina, it was the second, and last, concert I've ever been to!

  • Graduated from MYP Program

    My 5 years of IB/the MYP Program finally paid off!

  • My first day in the CP Program
