My past experience has prepared me to be a successful student at UGA. I have learned that hard work is key. Through hard work I have reached the third rank in my high school class. Taking harder classes and sticking with them has taught me I can overcome anything with hard work. I motivate myself to be the best that I can be and do not settle for anything less. I have failed in some endeavors but have realized that I could have done better. As a result, I always push myself.
Some elements I can add to the UGA community is my openness to new ventures. For example, right now I am on a video game design team for the Technology Student Association and will be competing at regionals. This is something I have never tried before, but decided to

    The Importance Of Being Hmong At The University

    As a possible incoming student, who not only desires to, but needs to learn and attend a favorable campus, the things that I can offer and/or bring are my experiences and skills.

    Resilience Motivation And The Attribution Theory

    The biggest takeaway from reading and discussing High Price is that, although Dr. Hart had numerous struggles he faced such as, poverty, lack of parental guidance, being a first-generation student and more. Through it all, he never allowed the burning desire in him to dim, he preserved through all the challenges and remained diligent. When life took unexpected detours, he quickly administered another idea to suit the situation. The major themes throughout this reading I can strongly relate to is resilience, motivation, and the attribution theory. To obtain a valuable possession, you are bound to endure adversities and commitment a couple, if not many mistakes.…

    UUM is the largest university I've ever visited. Certainly a lot of experience I gained during my studies for one semester at this place.
