Over this semester, my writing is better than before because I can express my thought clearer and more logical. The thing that helps me make my ideas clearer is the discussion during SAGES seminars. Each time before I started talking, I always went through the words in my mind so that I could prevent stumbling over words. When I agreed or disagreed with an idea, I first thought about my arguments and in the end concluded my thoughts in a sentence.
I returned to Highline Community College I did not know what I wanted to do after school but was more focused on each class and who I could learn. Towards the end of my time at Highline I took an introduction class to psychology, I feel in love with the idea of being able to help people. I choose Central Washington University’s psychology program to receive my Bachelor’s degree. During my senior year while attending Central Washington University I narrowed down what Master’s program what wanted to enroll in to help with the career that I want to have.
I am very indebted to Horace Mann and will continue to work hard in my studies because of an individual that fought for my education. I politely ask you, Mr. President, to consider the idea of having a new national holiday called Education Appreciation
A schedule may also help me outline my day and highlight things that I would want to accomplish for each day, and that will cultivate a culture of discipline. The support that I will need should mainly come from within me though I would also need the support of others around me. This involves being around people with the same vision as me, to avoid falling off the rail. The people that I need to surround me are people that will constantly push me to do better and try to be the best version of myself and these are mainly friends as well as
Now, to end everything off with a good impression. I hope you will consider me to be part of National Junior Honor Society with everything I have stated in my paper. This year for me was an experiment with the clubs. I had only joined a couple because I wanted to make sure I was not too overwhelmed, but I was not so I will be considering to join one or two more to make my life a little crazier. I do intend to do more for my community in the near future and gain even more work experience.
My job shadow project required me to narrow down my choices to three different choices. When I was looking for a career to do the assignment on, I realized that I don't know what career I would like to pursue once I go to college. After getting suggestions by other students, I did further research on careers such as psychology, Family therapist and auto mechanic. I now know some of the required courses
However, I will not let that alter my goal. As a solution, I will research deeply about jobs available in Florida for these two types of psychologists. And if I am unable to find a good job in these fields, I will research about jobs in these fields that are out of state. I am willing to move out of state in order to be able to complete my dream job because I know that it will help me to achieve my life purpose of helping other people. And because I still have in mind that quote that my mother once told me, and I strongly believe on
It's not a perfect fit for my personality, I might change my mind or something my happen along the years, but it is something I find extremely important and interesting. Some of the things I will need to become a psychologist I will still need to work on, such as reading more and becoming more involved in people's lives, but I believe that with some effort I can be a good professional one day. Another interest that relates to psychology is reading a lot and being interested in learning new things. This is something I’ve always liked, especially when it comes to subjects I care about. I’m hoping that doing extensive reading and research I can learn more about what a psychologist does exactly, how it helps people and how to be effective doing
The program that that I applied to was the ISA Study abroad program. I first heard of this program during a study abroad information session during one of my schools honor day. I talked to an ISA recruiter, and the more we talked the more I got interested in studying abroad. When I looked up more information about ISA
I wished that I gave more time practicing my speeches, I was not lazy nor slacking but I think I settled. I know I could have done better. However, I feel that I'm accomplished, I gained confidence in speaking in public.
Why do you want to participate in the Bridges Summer Program? Participating in the Bridges Summer Program will help me greatly in the transition between high school and college. Reading about the program I have learned that this program is meant to help students transition to a college-level work environment and I know that I need this type of help. The good thing about this program is that they help students individually and this way students will have a better chance at really being prepared to start college in the fall.
I can contribute my willingness to never give up and persistent attitude. Playing sports and being cut from the team a lot gave me this skill and I plan to spread my hard work across the campus. Whether I end up in the Honors College or just attending Ball State, I will make a
I am sure that I will have many of these goals and I am determined that I will have enough grit to finish them. Another thing that we talked about in Learn Strong was crucial conversations. When I think of crucial conversations I think about a crucial decision that needs to be made that can affect the lives of many. Personally I can’t think of a crucial conversation that I had this semester.
George Engelhardt’s article, “The Predicament of Gawain”, reflects on the predicaments that Sir Gawain was faced with and how Gawain handled these situations. The predicaments Gawain coped with were not made for knights of zero valor, temperance, and other codes of chivalry. Engelhardt proposes that the pentangle on Sir Gawain’s shield symbolizes Gawain’s reputation, which was without any mistake, and again the quandary he faced tested his reputation. The pentangle also represents the “complete man” which Gawain is thought to be by many people. Engelhart continues to talk about how the society, that Gawain was alive during, rooted from a race of men that loved conflict, “but it was Gawain who especially excelled in valor” (Engelhardt 219).
In his novel, The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald includes many themes that go beyond the surface of the text itself. The themes allude to organized crime, color symbolism, relationships, weather symbolism, and a mysterious billboard of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg. Each of these themes plays an essential role in understanding the personality of Jay Gatsby, his life choices throughout the novel, and his relationships with other characters in the novel. The element of color, specifically green, white, grey, and silver stands out as an extremely important factor in shaping and explaining parts of the novel. From the very beginning of the novel, Fitzgerald incorporates color into his novel which is narrated by Nick Carraway.
