Michael's Story


                My life in a nutshell      

My name is Michael Powell. I was born in Norfolk, Virginia on November 26 1994. My mom died of a clot. My stepmom Candace threw my PS2 out the window. I’d rather not get into the details. My dad’s girlfriend brought over three dogs. Their names are Millie, Emmie,and Gemma. I also have a dog named Duke. He is a Border Collie -Lab mix I think. My little sister's name is Annie.

How I got involved here was through Dr. Weare A. Zweimer in Chesapeake, Virginia. I did so well during summer camp (NC Backpacking Standard) that I didn’t have to write an essay that the other students were required

What I do for fun is hunt bugs, play Kirby, Duel, Pokemon, and play with my dogs, and listen to Tool.

What I want to after SOAR is go to Tidewater Community College’s Chesapeake campus.

  1. Michael, We know that you have so much more in your life and about you to share than this. We know that is all new for you,and to openly share things about yourself in writing may seem like work.This is a wonderful opportunity for you to open up and express thoughts and feelings in a new way. What type of dogs live with you and your family? What about Duke? Your sister? What about camping and kayaking with the Float Fishermen of Virginia? How do you think that attending SOAR will be of benefit to you? Besides wishing to attend Community College, what do you think you would like to study and why? Who are your favorite authors and what is it about their work that you find appealing?
