It is the first day of school and I walked into my last period of the day which looks like every other class with desks and inspirational quotes covering the walls. As people start to file in I notice most of the class is seniors but I was a junior with no clue of the future ahead of me. The seniors started to discuss the plans for life after college which started to me think. Thus, I said to myself “I’m only a junior I still have time to think of what I want to do once I graduate.” Then it hit me that I in fact do not have time to think about my future because I only have two years left to plan until I’m off to college. Then the bell rang and the teacher walked in to settle down the class. She then began her first lesson of the year which
My most significant endeavor since attending community college would be helping my community to receive an Adult Daycare. Thought this endeavorer I have applied my knowledge that I have learned about the disease to educate others in my community who may not have to know the impact of it. I have also used and sought the aid of my relationship that I have built by being at my community college. This Adult Daycare service or Coltrane LIFE center is something that I am passionate about having in my hometown. My grandpa has Alzheimer's and I have seen the stress that tolls on the family and caregiver.
Returning to college has been an exciting and terrifying decision for me. My husband has encouraged me for 1-2 years, but my fear of failure overwhelmed me and kept me from pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree. I wasn’t even sure what I wanted to pursue. I’m now on this journey and ready for whatever it is that God has planned for me. I have worked hard encouraged my three kids as they transitioned their way through elementary school through middle school and on to high school and graduation.
Some people in elementary school knew they wanted to be doctors. Classmates of mine in middle school expressed their desires to become teachers. And yet for freshman year me, I had no idea what my future would hold—and I was terrified. I had done decently academically, managed to swim without drowning, and could muster a couple songs on the violin. But in a larger sense, it often felt like I was going through the motions, living another day just to do so.
Something such as returning back to school was long gone and in my past goals. After a couple of years I never thought I would end up going back to school since everything that I wanted was going good and according to plan. However sometimes we are faced with tough situations where we must find other resources in order to improve and better ourselves. Going back to school was one of the most important and wise decisions that I have ever made. Finding well-qualified candidates for a job or career nowadays is a challenge, especially in the field that I am currently in; law enforcement.
In five to ten years, I am uncertain of where I will be, which career I will have, or what activities I will be a part of, which I believe to be the truth for most entering college. However, the four pillars of Purdue University’s Honors College are, to an extent, already instilled within my character. I am certain that with being an Honors student in the future, I will be living a life only possible through cultivating my already existing character traits into columns to support not only my education, but my life after college. While always being a scholar, my post-academic life, as I see it, will contain a career that is constantly challenging and evolving. Cybersecurity, my current course of study, mirrors these values.
As my freshman year came to an end, I looked back on my first year of high school and realized that I didn’t want my remaining
My sisters were in high school, still teenagers. They convinced me that I should go back and complete my degree. This is why it was so important for me to continue in school. “The three of us, my two younger sisters and I had worked in a tomato factory that summer before I went to my field placement in Cincinnati. My little sisters gave me part of their money to get me to Cincinnati and have something to support myself until the agency gave me a stipend in October.
A couple months into the semester, my Algebra II teacher, Mr.Habberman, went around the class and asked all the seniors to share their plans for after high school. Some of the seniors were unsure, some planned
Lee-Vang. Session1.Journal For a while I contemplated returning to school, but I always found excuses for myself to not do so. The thought of returning to school was always on my mind, but I kept putting it off until I heard about the scholarship for Colorado Christian University on KLOVE for the 100th time. I had many doubts about going back to school, but there is one event that took place that influenced my decision to return to school and will influence my academic work and goals at Colorado Christian University as well.
Just the thought of not knowing what I was supposed to do with the rest of my life made the last little bit of my senior year, very stressful. I then found out that not knowing and being undecided was perfectly okay and I was ready to begin my freshman year at Saint Petersburg College. Talking about graduating high school always seemed unrealistic because it was such a huge goal. After graduation, I had never felt so proud of myself.
On the bus ride home, I thought about my first day of high school. I was still astounded by the fact that I could finally call myself a 9th grader. I thought about all of the potential things that I would accomplish in the next year. I thought about how different I would be at the end of my high school career. From my first day experience, I was excited for what this new school would bring to
In the next semester, I was a final year student majoring in chemical engineering. I need a residential college because I will often use a chemical laboratory following the course taken, namely undergraduate research project (PSM) 2. If I do not get a place in a residential college, it will be difficult for me to complete my research project. In addition, I also did not have any vehicle to ply soon. The cost of living will increase if I did not get a college residence as having to pay the cost of rental housing, round-trip bus fare and a variety lagi.bagi I am a student who relies entirely on money PTPTN
I'm African and I'm the first in my family to graduate high school and attend college. Growing up I never expected myself to accomplish much as a student. my focus was always on starting a career , I didn't know education was the path that I was suppose to take to advance my career. I wish I could say that attending high was easy but it wasn't. it took my couple years to complete high
The first half of this semester was swift and I can’t believe how fast it passed by. College is a whole new world for me that I had never imagined with a lot of new experiences that I hope will shift me into a better and smarter person. There are more things I can do in college that I would have never dared to do in high school and I am happy for these new freedoms. I am able to eat in class, leave class without asking and they don’t care if I pay attention or not. My high school teachers would always tell me to wait for the bell, sometimes would not let me leave and if I did not pay attention they would yell.
I dedicated myself to passing geometry in order to be accepted at CSU Channel Islands. Unfortunately, my admission was rescinded because I did not meet the geometry requirement because I went through a lot of stress meanwhile geometry being a challenging subject for me was not helping the situation. I was close to meeting the requirement, but I was not able to improve enough. As I previously mentioned, I went through a lot of stress during my senior year because I was going through personal issues.
