My Personal Identity Timeline

  • My Day of Birth

    My Day of Birth

    On this day, I was greeted into the world. I am the second child in my family, and my parents were very proud of me on my birth day.
  • My 1st Birthday

    My 1st Birthday

    This was a special day because it was 365 days of me living on this planet! This was my very first special occasion as well, and I'm sure that from what I have been told, is that there were many family members over at our house for this.
  • Nemo

    Nemo

    Nemo was our first pet. He was a goldfish, that my sister was in love with. He lived for a couple of months, however, because we over fed him.
  • First Communion

    First Communion

    I was in third grade when I had my first communion. It was on a Sunday morning, and I participated with all my polish school classmates. This was the first real event that I had participated in for my religion.
  • First Time in Poland

    First Time in Poland

    My family is born in Poland, and I am 100% polish, so it was a memorable time going to Poland for the first time. It is definitely a different life there, compared to the US.
  • Hobi

    Hobi

    Hobi is our dog, he is a Maltese. We were looking for a dog for a while and we found him. We bought Hobi in Aurora. He was a couple of months old when we got him. He is an amazing dog.
  • House Renovation

    House Renovation

    This was a very memorable moment because we were adding another half of the house, to the current house we had. My dad is a bricklayer so he did most of the job, but we had to hire some men to help us. It was cool seeing all the construction being done, and the final product consisted of a dining room, my parent's room, their own bathroom, and the basement being added on.
  • Confirmation

    Confirmation

    I was confirmed in 8th grade, at my polish school in Chicago. This was a big step for me in my faith.
  • First Phone

    First Phone

    I got my first phone as a gift for my 8th-grade graduation. I was really happy because many kids already had phones at the time.
  • Graduation

    Graduation

    I graduated in 8th- grade from Smyser Elementary School. I attended that school from first to eighth grade. I would say that everyone was happy to leave because our school was very restrictful about things.
  • Highschool

    Highschool

    This was my official first day of high school. I was very excited to start a new chapter of my education because I knew there was much more freedom compared to middle school. I went to Taft High school.
  • Braces

    Braces

    I got my braces freshman year and I am currently in the progress of taking them off during my next visit. It was not as bad of an experience as people have told me.
  • Tuner Evolution

    Tuner Evolution

    This was my first ever car show. I am really into modified tuner cars, so this was a cool experience seeing all these cool cars.
  • Lacrosse

    Lacrosse

    This was my very first time trying lacrosse. I wanted to try a new sport and figured I would give it a shot. I started off on JV but then got carried over to Varsity. I play defense.
  • Iberostar Cancun

    Iberostar Cancun

    My family and I flew to Cancun for vacation. This was not our first time going there but it was the most recent time. I love going to Mexico for vacation. We did a lot like jet-skiing, foam pool party, and ate a lot!
  • License

    License

    I got my license in July, during Covid-19. I got lucky because after I got my license they closed the DMV's. I was excited because now I can go places without my parents worrying to pick me up.
  • First Car

    First Car

    My first car is a 2008 Lexus IS250. My sister went to college, so she handed me down the car for the time being. However, I am working to buy a new car for myself.
  • University of Wisconsin

    University of Wisconsin

    We visited my sister in college. This was my very first time going to the University of Wisconsin. I would say that I would rather stay in-state rather than going out of state. I don't think I was prepared for college life as I saw it there.
  • First Job!

    First Job!

    I applied to Dicks Sporting Goods because that is my favorite store. I got accepted and have been working there for about 2 months. I love the experience, and the people there are amazing.
  • Polish School- Matura

    Polish School- Matura

    Matura is the final exam for polish school, which consists of Geography, History, and the Polish language. I took the test 2 weeks ago, and feel pretty confident about it. Soon I will graduate from Polish school, and not have to come back ever again.
