1. The three words that best describe me as a student are observant, adventurous, and capable. I believe those words best describe me because I pay attention in class and understand when it is time to ask the teacher for help or work it out on my own. I enjoy learning new things and don’t mind the challenge. I also believe I am capable because I always arise to a problem and never enjoy sitting back and letting school work and sports hold me down.
2. My academic strengths are I am more than capable to find the logical way to understand the given material than waiting for the teacher to teach to me and I am always looking to improve to the next level in terms of my grades and sports.

I have always tried to be captain for my teams and always try to be a leader outside of sports. Throughout the beginning of my high school career, I was a captain for my sports and a coach to many young kids that enjoy the sport I love. When it came to other things besides sports, I strived to be the quiet one that looked after the ones that were falling behind, and always tried to propel and help them along the way, so in that retrospect I was not a leader that was leading the way, but last one in line helping pick up the pieces.

5. I either hope to take a week long program with the Naval Academy for the summer time or find another internship so that I can build my horizons so I can figure out what my place in this world is.

I have applied and my summer service trip was actually during the spring time where I got to spend a week with some of the hardest working people I have ever met and change my views on who is actually effected by these political waves throughout this country.
Future Plans
1. I would like to receive a master’s degree in either engineering or political science because I believe those are the two career’s that will give me the opportunity to actually help people in a productive way. But my main goal is to help people because of all the pain I have seen in this world, I want to help as much as possible to give the future generations a better chance than our previous generations have given them.
2. The only fear I have is not getting accepting to any of the schools I want to go to and it’s that fear of rejection and the possibility of my dream to actually helping people coming to an end because of colleges not finding me well suited enough for their
