    content with what we have; no matter how privileged we are, we always feel as if we need more. A few years back, while I was cleaning out my closet, I came across a huge pink bin that has been concealed by my clothes for as long as I can remember. On the surface lied a Harry Potter board game I had played once, a hacky sack I won in Kalahari, a Britton Elementary School plastic megaphone, and many other forgotten toys and trinkets I hadn’t touched in years. I removed more items and buried just…

    Behind my old tan house on McClure road is an open opportunity to have as much fun as you want, and as a kid I took advantage of that. I loved going out to just use my senses and explore. I would see how many different animals I could see or hear. I would listen to the birds hum their songs, and hear the chipmunks run aimlessly through the woods, cracking sticks every step of the way. Who knew such little animals could make so much noise! Sometimes I even thought they were bears! I never did see…

    Since my first GCSE Law lesson, I have been captivated by the subject's diverse array of fields and its tight grip on how society is run. Law allows our country to function, decides for us what is right or wrong and allows justice to be available for whoever seeks it, hence why I want to study law as a degree. When I visited Winchester Crown Court I was fascinated at how a barrister can so greatly influence the sentence and future of a defendant in just a few words. I want a career where my…

Moreover, my varsity field hockey took time away from my studies. When I did get to work on assignments, usually on Sunday afternoons, I had…

    Finance is something I never put much thought into. Last summer I had great income, it felt great to receive a check every Friday. I did the usual, like tithe and spend the extra on my personal expenses. I never thought about the future, and if one day I would have a similar experience as Adam. For that reason our professor gave us a scenario. Our case was that we had a $29,500 yearly income. We had $10,000 in school loans and $10,000 car loans along with a $2,000 credit card debt. Our goal…
