The Primary program I am enrolled in is to obtain a BA in information technology. The majority of the courses I am required to take are considered core courses, I have completed most of the prerequisites already. The courses are geared towards the IT field, such as ITT-116 and ITT-270. The ITT-116 course will help me obtain a better understanding of how the networks work. While the ITT-270 course will educate me on how to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot routing and switched networks.…
In this moment, the easier classes seem appealing, but if I were to take these classes, in hindsight, it would be a damaging choice. By choosing the advanced and RCI classes, I set myself up in the future for a significantly more successful future. Though it may be difficult to foresee that future, I must not give in to the temptation of a lighter workload— even if it is more…
This course was extremely intriguing and had me hooked from the first discussion forum. It required me to venture out of my comfort zone and ask questions that others viewed as odd, but I knew was going to assist me in my studies. I can recall one specific instance where I was on twenty-four-hour duty and I began asking a police officer doing his security checks questions. It had to be two in the morning and you can tell by the exhausted look on his face when he walked through the bitter cold into our dimly lit building entrance. He spoke with very little energy as he said good morning, but once I began asking him the list of questions that I just so happened to have typed on my laptop screen he immediately perked up and began to speak with life.…
The course required a lot of commitment but after taking my test and seeing the results all the sacrifices I made really paid off.…

As I continue my journey down the road of education I have been able to identify the type of student I have progressed into. I could not be more pleased with the way I have been able to overcome obstacles in my past years of education and truly focus on the aspect of learning. The way I am able to handle assignments and time management to this day has been such an improvement from my late stages of my high school years. Having the ability to manage my time wisely attending Manchester Community College is one of my strong suits.

When I picture my future, the most prominent aspect of it is my happiness. The most probable source of my happiness would have to be finally believing I’ve done something great, something generating that gratifying feeling of “I made it”. I’m very fortunate to be able to say that throughout just about all of my school career, I’ve always known I wanted to work in a business-related profession and achieve success. Knowing that I want to pursue a prosperous career in this field, I have involved myself in karate, business classes and accounting activities, and leadership programs, just about all made possible by the Gear Up IV program.…

As Dr. Steve Maraboli once said, “You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it courageously”. Setting one’s heart and mind to something is a big step in anyone’s life, and the things learned on that journey toward accomplishing something can transition a child into a mature adult. Susan Komen for the cure is a non-profit donation foundation that raises money for cancer awareness by providing a 5k marathon. When I heard this race was scheduled in St. Louis, I had my heart set on crossing the finish line whether I would be first or last. My aunt Trena, who had earlier that year lost her life to ovarian cancer, was my motivation for running this race.…
