The adversities I have been challenged with in life taught me many lessons about myself, and who I want to become. I learned that hard work will always pay off, that sometimes you need to accept the things that you cannot change, and most importantly that you are never going through something alone. I have been blessed with an excellent pair of teachers over the past four years, and through their guidance I have learned to overcome adversity. Mr. Burdess, and Mrs. Bazyk have always taught their students that there is a lesson to be learned from everything, and that it's okay to lean on peers for support. It is my personal belief that my success in school is a result of the guidance I have received in overcoming the adversities that life has…

Obstacles are an everyday situation occurred in life. For example, one obstacle that happened to me was in high school around my junior year it just happened that by that time I was taking us history class ,and well that meant for you to pay attention if not when the day of sate test came you weren’t going to pass.

So after the test a week later passed, and everybody was…
When asked to define myself in one paper, I find it hard to show the details that I want to in the right light. When asked about my future after high school, I also have a hard time describing everything I want to get done because there are far too many things to name. The quote “ _____” (i want to be everyone and do everything and there isn’t enough life to do it all in) describes me to a tee, and I believe this college is the place I could do this in. Being a shy person for most of my life, many things were difficult for me. Specifically, last summer I had the opportunity for a summer job.…

I sighed as I looked up to see the 12 foot tall wooden fence. I still didn't have the courage to go through with it. It was a scorching, hot day in Ethiopia, and another day has passed since I had concocted my plan to escape. My house was ringed by a huge 10 feet wall all made of steel except for a little chuck by the back. My plan was simple, climb over the wall so I could play outside, but not while my parents were around .…

Life is filled with many opportunities to surge forward and take a leadership role within a situation, or conversely, subside into the background. Taking a leadership role hasn’t always been a strapping aspect of my life, but as I have grown and been influenced by awe-inspiring mentors in my life, I have realized that being a leader is a tool that can be beneficial to not only myself but to my community and fellow students. Having a mentor within your life is an essential part of any development whether its school, work or everyday life, and I aspire to be a mentor and help guide the people within my community. I began working at my current about a year ago. In the beginning, it was a terrifying feat for me.…

As a result, many students aspire to move onto college after they graduate from high school. Students work through high school to achieve all the requirements that are needed for college and even sometimes, more. This is because depending on the post-secondary school a student chooses, sometimes the ability to be accepted is fairly difficult.…

My First Job When I first began my job, I didn’t care for it at all, but now I can’t wait for my next work day. The day I came home with the news of my first job, my family could not believe it. They were aware that I wanted a job for the reason that all my friends held jobs, but they had no idea I would indeed pursue this idea. I was very proud of myself for achieving this all alone, and I was as surprised as they were that this happened. I remember getting ready for my first day, I was shaking with excitement and a hint of nervousness.…

My First Day on a New Job The beginning is a place where we all have to start at some point in our lives. It could be the beginning of a marriage, a relationship, a business, a pregnancy, or a job. The one thing all these relationships would have in common is that you don’t know what it’s going to be like.
