In this essay, I would like to tell in detail about three different moments that impacted me in some way. These are three stories which had a positive impact on my life in one way or another.

The first story concerns the birth of my younger sister. I was eight when she was born. As a matter of fact, I knew that my mother was pregnant and expecting a child, however, I did not know what it would be like to have a sibling. I remember very well that my mother went off to the hospital and came back in two days with a little, cringing thing in her hands. At first, I felt disgust. But when I sat down on the sofa and my mother handed me my sister I felt a deep bond extend somewhere from the center of my heart to this baby that I was holding. It was a feeling that I cannot forget until this day.

Another moment which I remember very well is when I went to study at a new school. I remember how several weeks had passed and I still had not made any friends; no one was talking to me during lunch and I felt abandoned. However, when the third week was coming to an end, on a Friday, a cute freckled girl came to the lunch table to sit with me. She extended her hand toward me and told me that her name was Kate. From then on we have been very good friends. The moment she came to talk to me, on that gloomy, rainy day, it felt like the sun came out from behind the clouds. I had finally made a friend!

Finally, I would like to tell the story of my first kiss. I was thirteen years old and in love with a classmate. There was a middle school dance coming up for Valentine’s Day and we went as a couple, though we were not dating at that particular moment. I remember how a slow song started playing and we kissed lightly on the lips. Right at that moment I felt a warm current spread all over my body. I had never felt so happy before.
