<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Chester W. Barrows is a small elementary school on Beachmont
Street in Cranston, Rhode Island. There
are grades Kindergarten through fifth grade, meaning children range from ages
five and eleven. This school can be
classified as a title one school which as we know from FNED is also known as: “<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #222222;">According
to the National Center for Education Statistics, to be an eligible Title
I school, at least 40% of a school's students must be from
low-income families who qualify under the United States Census's definition of
low-income, according to the U.S. Department of Education.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span>The reason I tell you about Chester Barrows is about two years ago my mother, Katrina Pillay became principal of this little school and since then the
entire school has changed. On Friday October 9<sup>th</sup>, Chester Barrows
was able to cut the ribbon and celebrate a brand new playground. They were one of the only schools in the state
that did not have one and my mom along with a group of others worked their ass
off to achieve this goal. So I know we
talk a lot about youth holding the power and “it’s critical for young people to
be at the center of change in every community”.
But what I realized was my mom is helping to create her own youth in
action, or at least a place where youth can come and feel safe. Although YIA is very different than an
elementary school while I watched her cut the ribbon for the playground, my mom
is attempting to build a better future and community for youth. It is so inspiring to see how much the school
has changed since she has been principal.

This was my third experience with Open Books Open Minds. When I was a freshman back in fall of 2009 I was required to read <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_Loud_and_Incredibly_Close">Extremely Loud and Incredible Close</a> by <span style="color: black;">Jonathan Safran Foer<span style="font-family: sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px;">. I don't remember much about it but like I do for most of my reading I bought the audio file for it and I do remember it was odd. </span></span></span><br />

So fast forward to my Junior year in the social work program. During our research course with Professor Weismann - which I hated at the time but am now so grateful that I took we had to read the 2012 OBOM book: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Immortal_Life_of_Henrietta_Lacks">The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks</a> by Rebecca Skloot. Great read!!!</div>

Again lets fast forward to tonight. <a href="http://www.gradesaver.com/the-brief-wondrous-life-of-oscar-wao/study-guide/summary">The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao</a> by Junot Diaz. After reading the plot summary the stories made more sense. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>I was able to connect the retelling of difficult life events to todays class when we either wrote or discussed the people who were most influential in constructing who we are. I loved that I could related to at least one piece in every story. </li>
<li>In Nancy's story about her families engagement ring - it made me laugh since I have more recently been pestering Matthew for one. </li>
<li>I wanted to get up and either give a hug to or find a box of tissues for the woman who lost her dad when he fell overboard. </li>
<li>And I related to the guy who because his parent's parent. </li>
<li>But the two that really spoke to me the most were Thanksgiving in December. Mostly because this is a tradition that my family does at well. Not so much because I am of the same culture that she is but because my family is from all over the world. So whenever we are all together no matter what time of year it is we celebrate a Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings - it is super difficult to find a full turkey in Germany in July just for future reference. </li>
<li>The other story that really meant a lot was I Am Ill. This woman didn't even know me but it was as if she was describing my entire situation by saying how I don't look sick but I am. It truly hit home and made me feel good that there are other people who know a bit of how I feel. </li>

<li>I liked hearing how the discourse and verbiage was different with every speaker. It made it much more unique and for me I was able to connect with that person and their story because they wrote "without a filter".</li>
</ul>
<u><b>Minus:</b></u><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>I wish that the speakers worked on their eye contact. For me especially eye contact is super important and there wasn't any one speaker who kept me engaged which with working with youth is again super important. </li>
<li>Along with eye contact I wish the speakers were more confident. It's fine and dandy for me to say that but especially with a piece they work they should be proud of their work and it should show.</li>
<li>They should have practiced more - maybe it was because they were nervous but the more I practice the more I know my material front and back so that I can make eye contact and am 100% confident in it and me.</li>
<li>I was upset by some of the people who were there listening. I understand kids being kids, but it drives me absolutely insane when I look over and see someone sitting with their eyes closed while someone is presenting. How hard is it to pay attention? </li>
</ul>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am glad that the OBOM still continues and would love to be able to create some sort of program like this at my future job. </div>

I can relate it to The Construction of Adolescence because again, it was people telling what or who influenced them into who they are today. </div>

I had a lot of people who helped shape who I am today - I had a lot of coauthors. It was interesting that the first person I think of who has shaped me the most is definitely the most important person in my life: my mom.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
She is my rock, my teacher, my best friend. She has taught me everything there is to know - and so much more. But we have always had different outlooks on life - especially mine. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">"The construction of one's life, from this perspective, occurs through and gets held together by the evolving stories we tell ourselves and the ways in which these stories become internal guideposts for ongoing decision making, everyday behavior, and self-understanding."</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
During class today I began to think that maybe my mom isn't my biggest influence in guiding my story. Maybe my coauthor isn't a real person at all. I have always been very open and forthcoming when it comes to my medical past. I send emails to my professors explaining everything before each semester begins and I have no problem telling my story. My tumors and medical anomalies have become a part of who I am - to me they are my identity, which is fine. But it drives my mother crazy. There was a period of about a year when I wasn't allowed to talk about Timmy because she was afraid that I talked about that experience too much. But it is such a large part of my life - Timmy is my coauthor. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When I was first diagnosed I think I was very blunt to almost everyone - "hi my name is Noelle and I have a large brain tumor named Timmy..." And I was still developing my identity around it - it's as if I went though the five stages of grief.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was <b><u>SAD & DEPRESSED</u></b> - I would cry all the time. But mostly I was sad for what I was missing and the thought of what I could miss out on in life.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was <b><u>ANGRY</u></b> - to be truthful I was furious! I hated everyone else because they didn't grow tumors but I did. Why the hell was I special tumor girl.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was in <u><b>DENIAL</b></u> - hell sometimes I still am. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I <u><b>BARGAINED</b></u> - I would talk to God everytime I had an MRI - "if everything is ok I will be the best student you've ever seen." "I'll do all the dishes for the rest of my life if I don't have to have another surgery." </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But to get to the point I <u><b>ACCEPTED</b></u>. I had a brain tumor. I grow tumors. And over the years I've changed my way of thinking because I've seen how this illness can either eat you alive or you fight it. Rather than wallowing in self pity, I embrace my past. I grow tumors - it's my superpower. Unlike most people I didn't need someone else to help me become self-aware. I didn't need Danielle Peterson. It is because I have watched so many other people crumble that I created my own affirmation. </div>

Shaffie Pillay (my mom's husband and a guy I consider a father) has been in my life since I was little. It really wasn't until they began dating that I noticed a difference in people's skin. I grew up in primarily in East Greenwich RI where it is a predominately white upper class population. Even though my <a href="http://ineverthoughtiwouldbeablogger.blogspot.com/2012/10/racism-why-is-your-skin-so-dirty.html">best friend</a> is Haitian, I really didn't notice even though she did. Was I color blind maybe? But I think it was more of I just didn't notice a difference in anyone. To me everyone was the same. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Over the years that Shaffie and my mom have been together though I have seen that people do treat him differently because of his skin color. We have been refused service in restaurants because he was in our party, he has been pulled over at night and given tickets by the police for no reason, and he has been pulled out of line at airports almost every time we fly for no real reason. It makes me sad that people are color blind - that they do not understand a persons worth because of their appearance. </div>

So this is the second or third time I have taken this Ideology and Inventory quiz and I am skeptical each time I begin. Even though I have taken it a few times in the past this is the first time I have taken it since I have graduated with my BSW so I wanted to see if my scores would change... I wish I had kept my scores from the previous times I had taken the quiz but alas. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This time I scored a 12 for each of the three categories: Risk, Resiliency and Prevention, Positive Youth Development, and Critical Youth Development. After tallying my score I was surprised that I had an equal score for all three but at the same time it made sense especially after I reread my horoscopes. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When I scored a 12 for Risk, Resiliency and Prevention I was nervous at first because my first instinct when I read the word RISK is bad. I don't really know what I thought but I was thinking maybe I was a risk to working with youth, or maybe lord only know. And after working in the Alternative Learning Program for as long as I did I learned a lot about at risk youth. I had to know my background and know the kids I want to work with it makes sense that I want to "coach [them] in how to make good choices for themselves". So I feel better about that score.<br />
<br />

He does a great job in educating how to work with at risk youth.</div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now the Positive Youth Development and Critical Youth Development are more of what I see in my career field. Especially when the Positive Youth Development's orientation states: "a focus on fostering strengths and positive growth (also helps prevent negative outcomes)..." I have wanted to work in a children's hospital since I was sixteen... and hopefully <a href="http://www.hasbrochildrenshospital.org/">Hasbro Children's Hospital</a>. I think that this statement truly represents someone who works with children with illness as they need to be positive and look for strengths with patients. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
So I have been working with youth, pretty much my entire
life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So this article was fun for me to
reflect on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Youth Work is defined in the
article as “[enabling] young people to develop holistically, working with them
to facilitate their personal, social and educational development, to enable
them to develop their voice, influence and place in society and to reach their
full potential.”</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The way I see this: we are always learning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And it is obvious that youth workers should
forever be educating youth but in return we should also be learning new things
from our personal and educational work with youth.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My mom is a principal at Chester W Barrows
and has worked in schools her entire life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When she first became principal she had a first grader who was an
undiagnosed ADHD student with trouble at home, problems communicating with
other students and he was unable to control his anger or frustration.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At the time I was taking FNED and I was also
interning at Metcalf Elementary School with my 500+ hours so Dr. Brell said
whatever hours I did at my moms school would supersede the requirements.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thus my mom asked me to work with her student
every Tuesday.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We worked on making
friends, how to stay calm, being respectful, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><u>“Youth
workers purposefully intervene in young people’s lives, creating opportunities,
activities, and conversations that aim to enable young people to think, feel,
and act differently towards their world.”</u><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span></i>Long story short, he is now in third grade and although his life is
not perfect and he still has issues now and then, I was able to intervene in
his live through our many many conversations and lunch detentions and he is
still changing mine.<o:p></o:p></div>

While working in any elementary school I find it fascinating
how much more confident some youth are.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Thanks to Timmy causing a multitude of learning disabilities, growing up
and socializing normally was difficult for me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I was not a kid that was confident in school or out so I found it
difficult to interact with my peers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

I ran week and daily social skills groups with my students.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For some of the students like the ALP
(Alternative Learning Program) it was mandatory and part of their everyday
curriculum but for others it was a voluntary group.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I found that both those who HAD to be there
and those who WANTED to be there would contribute to group. (Depending on the
day)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I never told someone that they

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Please don't be offended if I can't remember your name or what you said last class or even a few hours ago. <span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14.8500003814697px; line-height: 20.7900009155273px;">I was diagnosed with short term memory loss at age 16 and personally I like to poke fun at it instead of be really serious and upset about it since there really isn't anything I or my doctors can do about it... which leads me to why I forgot things... if you haven't read my about me, there is someone you should meet:</span></span></div>

Yes, I named my first tumor, Timmy The Tumor. We all know you're jealous. I was diagnosed when I was 16 years old and a Junior in high school. Timmy is a grade one Juvenile Pylocytic Astrocytoma that had been growing since the first grade (I was in 11th when I was diagnosed). I spent 3 straight months in Hasbro Hospital (the first time) and have had ten brain surgeries to date. Thankfully however my neurosurgeon was able to remove most of Timmy was removed back in 2008 but in recent scans they have found some regrowth. <span style="font-size: 14.8500003814697px; line-height: 20.7900009155273px;">I also have a Codman </span><a href="http://www.fetalhydrocephalus.com/hydro/shunts.aspx" style="font-size: 14.8500003814697px; line-height: 20.7900009155273px; text-decoration: none;">Programmable Brain Shunt</a><span style="font-size: 14.8500003814697px; line-height: 20.7900009155273px;"> </span><span style="font-size: 14.8500003814697px; line-height: 20.7900009155273px;">(named Sasha). She drains the excess spinal cord fluid from my brain into my stomach because my ventricles were so scarred from the tumor, a brain infection, and the surgeries that they no longer do it themselves. I was diagnosed with a large Fibroadenoma (another tumor in my breast), which I named Dee-Dee when I was 21, a tumor in my eye, a cyst in my brain along with numerous other medical problems. </span></div>

I graduated with my Bachelor's of Social Work about two years ago. I am now working on my independent masters program with Dr. Bogad. We have used the criteria for Child Life Certification as the basis of my program with the hopes that I will someday work at Hasbro Children's Hospital as a Child Life Therapist. </div>

He graduated from URI with math, physics, and electrical engineering (he's one of those); and is now in North Carolina getting his masters in electrical engineering. So yes I admit I take care of him because he can be Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory, but at the same time he takes care of me when I need him.</span></div>
