About Me Essay

Project was an interesting experience. When we started, we had to pick a career that we thought we would go into. That was difficult for me and several others in the class because we did not know what we wanted to do. We had to make decision, however, so I decides I would do Computer Hardware and Software engineering. This was a broad field, so it left plenty of room for me to change my mind. At first, I thought I wanted to go into the software side, and I even started to learn how to code, but…

and hard. It was a lot of work compared to preschool. Here I had to write sentences about things and had to do it fast (well faster than what seemed like a reasonable amount of time for me). Stations was the worst, we went around the room in groups to different stations some of them were ok, but there was always at least one station that needed me to write. All the other kids had no problem with it except for me. I always got so flustered by writing that I would try to avoid writing until…

London, I decided that I must leave at once to inform Mr. Jaggers of my need to visit Estella back at Ms. Havisham’s house. As I was about to step foot into his office, this young girl wrapped in a scarf with a large floppy hat ran up to me and stopped me in my tracks. She quickly asked me if I wouldn’t mind joining her for tea, and before I had time to reply, she pulled me into a tea shop nearby. As we stepped into the shop, she pulled off her jacket, hat and scarf, revealing her intricate silk…

Previous to starting my journey at the University of Colorado I knew that I enjoyed helping people, but I wasn’t so sure what degree would get me there. I began my studies with an idea that psychology could help me reach that goal. Every psychology course I took was more interesting than the last, and I was hooked, but I still wasn 't sure where this would take me and my goal of helping others. I had volunteered in high school, and so began looking for volunteer opportunities in Boulder. My…

The theme that stood out to me this week was that of community and community connections. In this commentary I will first I will talk about the hindrances that face teachers that are not native to small town communities. I will also address the problems of partnering with colleges and universities while being in a rural setting. Last I will address the idea of sharing personal histories helping student connect to each other through their similarities and differences. This week’s topic of…

I have had several interviews and often freeze up when asked about what I am looking for in regards to compensation and benefits. Coming from low-paying, hourly jobs, this is a reality check I really need to take. I will try to start answering the questions they offered as I want to have a clear, confident answer when approached about this subject again. The other article was really great to read. Often times I feel very uncomfortable starting a…

week that I have been in a pensive mood and have been contemplating about this essay. I recall how it all began. It was a tiresome evening of the last day of August and I have recently arrived home from camp. The first thing I was informed to do when I entered the house was that I had an essay that I needed to compose for a competition. My father notified me that the education director of the Toronto general consulate has challenged me to enroll into this three page essay competition. I agreed…

The qualities that I possess that qualify me for a chapter office are I am hardworking and committed. I spend my time appropriately and don’t stop until the job is done correctly. Something I have stayed committed to this year is my SAE. I maintain our chapter website (www.dewittcentralffa.com) I work hard to ensure it is updated at all times, and that everything is available and running smoothly. Goals are important, they help me remain motivated to achieve any task. A goal that I have made is…

This again made me feel better and less nervous as the whole time I was there it was indeed more of a chat rather than an interview which I believe went well. I kept calm and answered any questions clearly and joined in with the discussion as there wasn’t that many questions for me to answer as it was a chat. We discussed the placement and what I would be doing, I was given examples of what past students…

Not only did I want to excel in physics, but having one of the highest grades felt accomplishing, and knowing I worked extra hard for it was rewarding. The one thing that has really helped me and shown me a glimpse of the real world was getting my first job. I am currently working a part-time job at Jason’s Deli as a cashier, hostess, and salad bar prep. Working and going to school has probably been one of the hardest things I have ever had to…
