Now that it has been almost three years since I started college, I have accomplished so much that I thought would never be possible for me. I have almost completed my Associates in Arts degree with all most straight A’s. In high school, this was never the case for myself, I was too worried about guys and partying. I also didn’t have the support from my family either. I have now buckled down and have focused all my energy on my school work. I am about to be the first person in my family to have a college degree. This couldn’t have been possible without my fiancé help and support. He puts in extra hours and works side jobs just to pay all the bills, while I focus on my school work. He even is supported of all my activities that I try to plan for other students.

This has really helped me connect with others and practice on my leadership skills. I used these new skills and the connections I have gained on campus during the It’s On Us campaign, to promote the importance of the sexual assault training. Many teachers that I talked to was eager to help promote this by offering extra credit to students. The Student Government Association was able to get around 33% of students to do the training and we even had a few events on campus that educated students about sexually assault. The role I have as the Vice President of SGA allows me to actually make a difference on campus and the lives of other students. This school year has really helped me hone in on my career path. Currently, I am a math tutor at Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College, which has provided me the skills to help a lot of students overcome obstacles in math. This is now my passion and I want to become a math teacher. I am very thankful for the opportunities that Southcentral Community College has giving me and the connections I have
As a student, I passionately feel that your college experience is what you make of it. I wanted to make my experience one consisting of philanthropy, scholarship, and leadership. As of 2016, I am an event chair, for Relay for Life. Relay for Life is one of the American Cancer society’s largest fundraisers, al over the nation. I chose to undertake this role to honor all of who have touched my heart, as well as everyone who has battled cancer.
I know that this event occurred 9 years ago, but I had to overcome some blinding obstacles and figure out what I was passionate about in life. Going to college straight out of high school was to chase a baseball dream and not an educational one. I wasted three years of a chance at an education by only worrying about baseball. After that, I chased money in the oilfield for four years and was eventually laid off. Being laid off was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.

Likewise, I was never aware of the tremendous amount of happiness and sense of togetherness that comes with seeing the faces of students enjoying our sponsored events and other organizations hearing about our efforts on campus. Being the president of SHAC has truly been a blessing to me and has opened my eyes to my true potential as a leader. I no longer shy away from speaking in front of large groups, question whether or not to share my opinions on topics and believe that there is only one way to successfully accomplish a goal. Although I would love to say that SHAC has helped Brady Health and students here on campus, I know that it is being in SHAC that has truly helped me. I have developed into a person that I would not have recognized during my early days as a college student if it has not been for this leadership role.
There are many events that led to this day and I could not imagine how my life would have turned out. At a young age, I was embodied with the notion that you need college to be successful in life, so I worked hard in school and finally it had paid off. My last semester
Becoming the Vice President of Public Relations for the Rho Beta Chapter is a Phi Theta Kappa activity that has had a profound impact on my life, both socially and academically.

The Phi Theta Kappa community is one where members encourage each other to challenge themselves academically, and invest wholeheartedly in their community. Running for and holding an office in the Rho Beta Chapter has given me the opportunity to meet and develop relationships with my fellow members.

As a student, I have always been interested in helping others and being involved on campus. My interests in being involved on campus led me to join our school's leadership program also known as ASB my Sophomore year in high school. When I first joined the class I did not realize how intense of a program it was. Some months we would spend over 30 hours at school planning and put on different events for the school and surrounding community.

A Class Apart: Movie Analysis 1) Briefly summarize the film in your own words A Class Apart was about the Hernandez v Texas case. However, it was so much more than that, it was about Mexican Americans obtaining their rights. They were considered white but they did not get fair treatment.

I had no choice but to learn how to deal with conflicting thoughts and feelings about the person I once admired. I developed healthy ways to manage my stress and one of those ways was therapy; I begged my mother to let me take it. I also learned to focus all the negativity into something positive. My academics. Although my freshman year wasn't perfect I managed to keep at 3.0 average that year, while having to adjust to what it felt to me at the time, a new

From contesting for this position to getting elected and working for betterment of my house group, I gained a lot of experience and self-confidence and became more responsible. Being a vice captain, I played an important role in addressing and motivating students, advising and helping them, and earning points for my group by participating in many competitions alone or in a team. I also served as the student voice of the school to a variety of external and internal constituents. The student council served as a bridge between the students and the school heads and administration.
Around June 2009 when I finished High School, I had no clue as to what I wanted to pursue next in my life. College was something that I never even thought about doing. In school, I would do what I had to do to get by, and that was it. Teachers liked me because I’m a friendly guy (and not to mention I had 5 other siblings attend the same school). After graduation I decided it was time for me to start doing something productive with my life, so I decided to get a job at a Dollar Tree.
Introduction From the perspective of happiness, when one observes an enormous smile on the face of an individual it can denote their delight. On the other hand, when the expression on the face of an individual is not pleasant, it can denote discontentment. People smile for since are elated, and people frown because they are sad. A mass of modern studies indicates that our emotions are reinforced, possibly even goaded by their corresponding facial expressions (Wenner, 2009). Originally a division line did not exist that could distinguish the difference between expression, emotional responses, and their impacts on the emotions of people.
