Upon working with an instructional designer who was a…

This decision would end up shaping the rest of my life, as it put me in an environment where I could explore my fascination with everything mechanical. This fascination came from an intrinsic desire that I have to understand how things work, so naturally I channeled that interest and the destructive tendencies of a young boy into taking everything apart that I…
Raised in a Buddhist household, my parents have instilled in me the core value of putting the concerns of others before mine. With this, I have felt that it has always been my responsibility to take care of others. Through primary school and middle school, I quickly took the role of being an outlet for my friends, classmates, and teachers whenever they needed help or someone to talk to; listening to their problems, staying after school to help my teachers for any minor help that they needed in…
When I am older I want to look back on my life with pride and satisfaction. This means more than earning a job in the biomedical field or raising a family with someone who shares the same values as me, although I do hope to do both. I also want to know that I worked hard and did not take an easy route or way out. I want to have taken challenges instead of shying away from opportunities I came upon. I want to be able to proudly look back on moments where, perhaps, I could have been deceptive or…

A career in nursing can be very rewarding though also quite challenging. Nursing is rooted in the fundamental delivery of high quality services. Its development has been a response to changing social needs. Without a doubt, as society changes, health needs become more complex. Consequently, the hours and duties of a nurse are endless.

I ranked legal services as my first preferred choice because I have a passion for law. I aspire to be a lawyer in the future so as to represent those of the marginalized community who feel as though they do not have a voice.

I have also worked with attorneys at my previous internship experience, at the Ohio Justice and Policy center as listed on my resume. My internship experience gave me skills of legal services and…

My daze was interrupted by the cool splash of a water syringe on my face telling me it was time to leave. When I was five, this antic was cute to the…
