College Admissions Essay-70 Changed My Life

Improved Essays
When I reach 70 I will be the same caring, patient and adventurous person that I am today which will be determined by my lifestyle as I grow older. One thing that hopefully will be changed is my last name. I hope to marry- and stay married- to the same man my whole life so that I can watch myself in retrospect and reminisce all the memories we’ve shared together. No matter how many years pass and how old I grow I just hope I don’t grow old to the point where I have to be so reliant on someone else to function in everyday life. I don’t want to grow old to the point where I can’t do the things I loved doing so much; I’ll miss them. I know this can’t be true for everything.

I like to stay close to my family but who knows how much family I will have then and where they will be living. I know I won’t have many of my family members still around then which I have now. Although I’m not sure where it will be, I’d like to be living in a small house, nothing too big so it won’t require a lot of maintenance. I would like to think that I may not be spending much time in this home as I will have a cottage too; maybe near the ocean somewhere close for a nice summer getaway or maybe somewhere far away, like Florida to spend the winter months. I also hope that after retirement I will have a lot of time to be able to travel as I love to do now and I hope to visit all 7 continents and experience many cultures before I die. I know this is a hard goal because living on a pension will not allow for much extra money - and travelling is so expensive but, I hope I will be as good as saving money then as I am now so, I will have the luxury to be able to go and do whatever I want, whenever I want. I also hope I will be healthy enough to be able to travel easily, whether it be to a different province or to the grocery

    “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted” —Aesop In a world full of hate and war, most people forget that a small act of random kindness can change even the saddest of hearts. Kindness has become a foreign language, one I make an effort to practice everyday. I work in a coffee shop, which requires a tremendous about of patience, as well as hospitality and customer service. Everyday, I make it apparent to myself that you never know what is going through an individual's mind, or the day they have had.…

    It was March of 1998; a bitter, cold morning she spent lying in a hospital bed caressing me in her arms. From that moment on, my mother has and always will be my ample motivation. It’s not just an emotional attachment that is brought on naturally by the forces of motherhood, but it is a psychological binding between the two of us that is nearly impossible to explain. The emotional impact of someone knowing more about you than you know about yourself is virtually magical. She has taught me more about my inner-self and the mysteries of the world more than anyone else I have ever met.…
