National Honor Community Analysis

As you know I'm applying to many colleges around the United States, mostly liberal arts college, and I need a letter of recommendation for you. To help you, I'm going to give my background, my educational background, my extracurriculars, my hobbies, my favorite classes, and what I'm planning to do in college.

My background is unique in many ways that no one person can imagine. To start off, I’m the son of an immigrant who will be the first in my family to go into college, but at the same time I saw my whole family crumble with my father divorcing and my brother leaving our mother/wife. My mother is a person who puts great harm on me with mental abuse- leaving me home alone for days at a time, not feeding me, and not signing any mandatory forms

My outside school activities include supervising kids at a summer camp for two years, passing out food for homeless people for two years, passing out flyers for two years and getting paid, helping out with local Napan candidates by canvassing and volunteering, and helping out a presidential candidate named Bernie Sanders in a form of attending events, volunteering at a rally, and helping with ballot counting. My school activities includes FBLA, Recycling club, National Honor Society, and French Club. My hobbies are unique among people my age. My first hobby is coin collecting; I like coin collecting because I like to see the history on the coin either as a picture minted on or as a different metal during a period of inflation or war. My second hobby, similar to my coin collecting, is stamp collecting where as mentioned above I like to see the history of it and the colorful display of color that comes with it. My favorite classes ever since I was a little kid is history/social studies because I have always been fascinated by the many stories of past heroes/enemies and the many errors that some leaders make that sees itself repeating.

In my college years, I want to major in either political science or business/economics because I like to debate real life issues facing the community, I like politics and the legal process, and I believe politics and business is a good mixture when being a businessmen for a major corporation. This is a resume of a person who tried to work out the situation for the better, but only to realize that there was better options outside of the box. He is a person who tried his best and never slack

    - P.S. at the beginning of the story is positive that he will pass the test, that is why he asks people do they know a certain Latin word or sentence (Bryan 152). However, when P.S. went to go back to his room and study, realizing he needed more practice, he would get distracted by looking at the window randomly and it could have been another reason for why he can’t conquer his nemesis (Bryan 153). His nemesis is Latin and if he wanted to, he could conquer his nemesis by staying in one spot and blocking distractions from his mind, but soon his studying time was a waste. In addition, when P.S. describes how his father is always disappointed in him and never shows love, that could have affected P.S.(Bryan 155). Meanwhile, it was time to take…
