Car rolls, a daughter dies.

In East Bethel, on Sunday, a 19-year-old girl, Rachel Nguyen, gets into a car accident. Her friend found her at about 5 in the morning, but she was in critical condition. The police showed up at the parents house at 7:30 to tell them the horrible news. Luckily, there was no one else involved in the accident.

Noteworthy news experiences

My first noteworthy news experience would have to be back to 9/11. I didn't know anyone it affected long term but I know it affected everyone short term. It made the United States come together and help out one another in ways we don't normally show just on the streets. I remember I was going to the art institute with my 5th grade class and we had to turn around and go back to the school right when we got there. My teacher turned the news on and it showed one of the planes hitting one of the twin towers, or right after. I didn't understand at the time, why this made so many people cry, but it brought everyone closer, and it made me aware that there is bad in this world but there is also plenty of good coming from people.

My second noteworthy news story would have to be with the 35w bridge collapsed. My boyfriend at the time's sister almost was one of the people on it. He was so scared which made me nervous and I remember it so specifically. I remember watching the news, looking at pictures of the colpased bridge, it was horrifying. It kind of scared me away from bridges for awhile, but I trust this one, now. My dad is also a constrution worker, so after that happened, he would keep up-dated on what he knew about the building of the bridge

My last noteworthy news story is Hurricane Katrina. This didn't affect me in any way, except my entire 8th grade science class turned into watching natural disasters and doing fund raisers for them. My teacher was a little obsessed but it made me want want to go and help people in which natural disasters did happen to.

Introduction

Writting is my passion. When I was depressed, I used it to get what I felt out. It's harder for me to discuss my feelings any other way, now; writing is the easiest way for me to do this. Although it started out as something to keep my mind in one place, it has become one of my favorite things to do.

Besides writing, I work at a Christian nusing home in Cambridge, MN. I'm a dietary assistant and I've never loved anything more. The people there are some of the greatest people I have ever met. Working there means I'm actually doing something to help out people who need to be helped and I've never felt more accomplished.

I'm 19 years old. I graduated from CIHS this past year. I have three older sisters; all married. The oldest, Nicki, with her husband, Luke Dochniak and their daughter Natalie, who's three years old. i baby sit her most days while they are at work. Then there's Kimmie, and her husband Phil Pearson with their daughter Josephine. She's 7 months old. The second youngest is Amanda who graduated in 2006, married to Tim Elliott. I am happy to announce that my parents are still together, which has helped me greatly throughout the years.

I have one dog but I love animals. I could see myself working at an animal shelter, but I have yet to decide what I really want to do in the years to come.
