I have had to overcome many hardships in my life, but I think that one of the hardest
My choice to have biochemistry as my major was the most logical, because for all of my life I have been interested in what life is composed of. I looked at the incredible things that people and animals do and I found that all the intricate working of biology and chemistry that made all of their actions possible, only added to the awesomeness of it all. Another important factor in my life that started my interest into the science of biology was my mother, who has a genetic anemia called Fanconi Anemia. She has lived with this genetic disease for all of her life and it has had a toll on her quality of life. From my earliest memories she has struggled with blood transfusions and bone marrow biopsies.…

When I was in Haiti, I remember sitting in class thinking about how much I love biology and chemistry. Coming back from school, I always told my parents and my little brothers what I learned in those classes. When I came to this country three years ago, my interest in the scientific field grew more. I finally thought deeply about what I wanted to do with my life and decided to major in chemistry. I became so interested that even when I was bored, I went through my chemistry book just to read and learn.…
Engineers have been the driving force of innovation, research, and creation. By applying mathematical and scientific concepts to real world applications, engineers can create anything they set their minds to.

By obtaining a degree from Texas A&M, I will have the capability to become a knowledgeable engineer and to truly make an impact. In five years from my graduation at Texas A&M, I envision myself working as a chemical engineer at a reputable energy company such as Shell or ExxonMobil and bringing my knowledge and capabilities to the…
Many people say they have been through it all without acknowledging that others have it tougher than them. Life for me now may not be as it seems, I have been through a lot of tough moments in my life, but the toughest time occurred when I was only 10 years old. I used to live in Dominican Republic with my mom and sister. I lived there for about 10 years and just when I was about to turn 11, my mom decide to move to the United States. When we came to this country I did not even know how to speak english.…

In my life, I have been blessed to be healthy, loved, and cared for. I do not consider myself to be in a position to say I have overcome adversity when there are many people that truly have. Nevertheless, I have overcome myself and realized who I am. Growing up, I have been surrounded by two cultures: Puerto Rican and American, my mother being Puerto Rican and my father being Scottish-Irish-American. Yet, I felt ashamed of my Hispanic culture, mostly because people never considered me as Puerto Rican by my physical appearance.…
Chemistry has allowed me to develop a number of skills, like teamwork, organisational and logical thinking. With chemistry, I would like to go into forensic science, so I can apply chemistry to different types of law, such as criminal or civil. Furthermore, I have learnt more skills from my other subjects, history and IT. The areas of the history that…
This is my junior year at Southridge High School, and I am very pensive when I ponder the matter of selecting the most appropriate college. My predetermined purpose is to find an affordable four-year college that will prepare me for medical school. Because of that, I narrowed my choices to Harvard University and Portland State University. After considering both colleges, I decided that Portland State was the most appropriate college based on my predetermined purpose. The most important factor was which college could provide the best chemistry courses to help me acquire a major in chemistry.…
How is life in Sudbury? I hope everything is fine. It has been a long time since I left you for my journey to Africa. Life in Africa is great! There are times when things go my way, like when I met a new friend, called Themba.…
I do agree with the quote “Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny”, because I can really relate to this. I can give examples of how “hardships can bring an extraordinary destiny.” I’ve been on the internet a lot lately, and I’ve been asking other artists for tips on how to improve in my drawing. They said some very encouraging and motivational things. The things they said for example was “Practice and practice, you’ll see where that leads you!”…
My freshman year flew by with ease. I made many friends and did well in class. We only had our final exams left before summer would begin. It was warm outside, and everyone was in good spirits.…
Hardships Every human that walks this Earth has experienced a hardship in one form or another. I experienced my biggest hardship in sixth grade when my family decided to move to a suburb outside of Dallas, Texas. Experiencing a new school and experiencing a completely different culture was the toughest challenge in my young life. I had to leave my hometown, friends, and family behind to explore a new place way down south.…
Up until high school, I have never experienced science as I did in a high school environment, specifically in DRS, where I fell in love with chemistry in 10th grade. It was so interesting to look at the different ways our environment, even ourselves, at a cellular level interact with one another. This love for the science influenced me to take upon myself the challenge of AP Chemistry. So far I have further developed and honed my skills. I have further ingrained in myself the idea to question everything.…
