Personal Narrative: My Everest Goals

Improved Essays
As a learner, I am usually visual as an enormous amount of my tests have shown. I have innumerable goals and I am trying extremely hard to accomplish them. One of my Everest goals is to find a subject in social studies that I indeed love and excel at it. I am not the best at Spanish and being reflective so my Everest goal is to obtain superior scores at Spanish and at being self reflective, learning and building on my actions, improving scores that weren’t satisfactory before, etc. My favorite quote is by Shel Silverstein considering everyone comes across people who say you can’t do something. You can listen, but you don’t need to believe it as anything can happen: Listen to the mustn'ts, child, listen to the don'ts, listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts.

I feel that I am the color yellow since yellow is the color of the sun and we need the sun to survive and it’s always shining upon everyone, making their day (literally).

    It is UWC that witnesses my transition: not only have I come to appreciate the diverse world, but I have also honed a more sophisticated self-cognition. Numerous late night discussions such as China-Tibet conflict gradually equipped me with cosmopolitan lens and faded my national identity. Moreover, UWC shaped me into an idealist and pragmatist. The utopian mission ignites my aspiration to pursue a peaceful and sustainable future for human beings.…

    There are several experiences in my life where I have felt that I was treated in an unfair manner, but the most recent of those experiences is the one that occurred to me only months prior to this application. Up until the beginning of November of this year, I used to believe that being a great and successful student would be the most rewarding accomplishment of my senior high career. As a result of this, I unwisely assumed that the most important thing in my life was how well I could do on the next test. I spent a meager amount of my time involved in anything else aside from my homework or studying; expecting to be fairly remunerated for a majority of my hard work. Earlier this year, I was indeed rewarded with an application to National Honors…

    When I was very little, walking up the trail with a pack on my back and the dog at my side, I would reach out and pull leaves from the bushes and trees. I would tear off corners, smooth the edges, and they would be turned into spaceships, flying across a lush alien world. Sometimes the trail, worn down into the ground over time by paws and hooves, would climb its way up onto the crests of ridges and meander across the moist, mossy fringes of muskegs. The rough, black and gnarled spruce branches that grew there were pirate spacecraft, pursued by the sleek birch branches from beyond the muskeg's soggy borders. As imaginary lasers and rockets exploded against the ships' hulls, I would rip off little pieces of bark and let them fall to the forest floor.…
