My Life After College

When I think of leadership, I think of it as a skill that not everyone can develop. For me, it took numerous times of being a follower or a leader, before developing this skill and form the type of leader that I wanted to become.

Currently, at Pasadena City College (PCC), I am a student who is part of the Honors program and is committed to his academics. The Honors program has enriched my learning experience through rigorous objectives and challenging assignments that undoubtedly have contributed to my knowledge, character, and drive. I have, for example, accomplished four honors English courses and done the honors assignments for each: from creating a short story to creating a poem that commemorates The Great War, I have passed the classes with A 's. However, it has been more than the grades, it is also knowledge and wisdom that I have gained in completing the classes. Moreover, at PCC, I have the opportunity to be the treasurer for the Psychology Club, which has taught me valuable lessons on how to run a club and work efficiently with team members. It has been PCC that has allowed me to explore and pursue my passion for English Literature.

There are many reasons I believe I should be inducted into National Honors Society. First, I maintain an A grade average. Second, I am a leader in my school and community. Third, I am very active with actives in and out of school. These are all great qualities to have.

To me, leadership mean being responsible and someone who can manage time really well. A leader can walk their followers to the right path of success. Someone who is in control because of their personality of trustworthiness and always deliberative from the world which is unpredictable. I currently exhibit leadership while working on any project for my college or high school classes. I take the role of a leader and always work diligently enough to get good compliments from peers and instructors. However, I also want to obtain Vice president position in National Honor Society. Since I believe that I am perfectly qualified for that position and also ready for the responsibility. Something I expect to gain from this camp is knowledge because knowledge

Leadership is also a very important pillar in the National Honor Society. A leader is a person who guides others with their actions or words and influences others in a positive way. I feel that I am a leader in many ways. I participate in many different

It is an extraordinary honor to be considered as a candidate for the National Honor Society. Being considered means I have achieved my goal in demonstrating my determination- in school and outside of school- and my willingness to aid people in my community. Being a part of such a prestigious organization is an enormous responsibility to which I will fully devote my time. Ever since I was a freshman, my goal was to work diligently to be among the highest scholars and to be accepted into this scholarly “hall of fame”. Through my relentless hard work and perseverance, I believe that I possess the four characteristics of a National Honor Society member- leadership, service, character, and scholarship.

I have been on several mission trips in America and out of the Country. Going on those trips have opened my eyes to what really goes on in the world. I have seen so much hurt and need, but I have also experienced the most joyful humans. These experiences led me to be more grateful for my life and as well as to understand others better. Growing up in a family of six kids, I needed to learn how to communicate and work together. I am the peacemaker in my family; I bring people together. I have a very positive outlook on life. People tell me that I am the happiest, most optimistic person they know. I think my outlook will add a lot to the Honors Program. Even in the bleakest situations, I can always find the good and encourage others to keep pressing on. This will benefit the program because it can be hard, but with students coming together and encouraging one another, they will be able to persevere and finish

I’m at home on the high school parking lot. It’s the only space the administration grudgingly affords our marching band, and yet it’s ours. The band family lives and thrives off people supporting each other, we are there for each other when no one else is. I was elected by this family to be their band president last spring, and I have been completely changed. Despite the flashy title, I am still just one member of this 140 strong group, and I am still pushing to fulfill the responsibility placed on my shoulders.

Being a leader involves many different characteristics. A leader must set the example for all others in the group, because if they are to show up late to practice, there isn’t a reason that any of the other members should not do the same. A leader must take risks for the benefit of the group as well as make sacrifices for it. Becoming the leader of the group requires for them to be the most dedicated. They must work harder and not be afraid to lead the group. A leader must be willing and ready to not only give orders but receive them.

“The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students,” as reported by nhs.us. I am truly honored to be part of this organization, as are some of my classmates. Although there are many requirements when determining who is chosen for NHS and who isn’t, the main requirements are academics, character, leadership, and service. I personally believe I fulfill all of those requirements.

Connor Zuege Shawn Sullivan/Kyle Hickey 5/3/17 ~Why I Want To Be a Drum Major~ There are many reasons that I personally would like to be a Drum Major for the Starkville High School Marching Band. Among these reasons is the desire to further my understanding of music, and how it works throughout all the instruments of the band. I would like to also further my understanding of what it means to be a leader with the help and guidance of upper class Drum Majors, and with the help of the Starkville High School Band staff. Some more reasons why I would like to be a Drum Major is to help the Starkville High School Bands in our journey in the upcoming year, and to help our band receive all superior scores once again. Another reason is to have the experience

Murdering, hating, and deceiving millions of people— Hitler. Negotiating, calming and giving millions of people hope— Gandhi. Teaching, guiding and working with 15 girls— my softball coaches. Listening, caring and devotion to her three kids— my mother. Change; something that the world’s most influential leaders have in common with my everyday encounters. But what does change have to do with anything?

With one foot in Seoul and the other in Kalamazoo, I have been juggling two homes for going on seven years. For the first dozen years of my life, home was where I was born and raised—the comfortable Irwon neighborhood in a cozy apartment with my mom and dad. When I first arrived in Michigan, it took nearly a year before I accepted that an entirely new story had begun. Slowly but surely, my aunt and uncle had become substitute parents and my two little cousins were now adopted siblings.

I think college will be stricter than high school. Stressful, more responsibility, the lifestyle is different.

Leadership is the art of empowering people around you to achieve a goal. As a leader I want to help others become leaders themselves. I firmly believe that by leading based on my values this will be accomplished. I have had many leadership influences throughout my career. Some of them showed me the way I wanted to someday lead and others showed me exactly how not to. Either way, both were influences. The people in my life that influenced me in a positive way always empowered me. They raised me up; they believed in my potential even when I could not see it for myself. They supported, cared for and listened intently to my concerns and needs. Goal after goal was met, trust was evident and the moral was positive and uplifting. There
