It 's easy for me to work hard if the if the work is easy to do. All throughout my high school sports career I have set myself up to fail. In track, football, and wrestling. For track, I would always focus on my strength and think that that would be the key factor determining how far I could throw. So I would always try to find time to get into the weight room and build up my strength. In practice, my coach would always try to help me with my form but I never listened to him because it wouldn’t…

As I am getting closer to graduation, I was frequently being asked from friends and families “What’s your plan after graduation?”, if I was asked about this question few years ago, I would feel helpless and didn’t have the confidence. Before college, I had no control over my life because I was always hoping that I can follow others. However, four years of undergraduate at UB changed me, I have developed my confidence and independent personality. As now, I am very confident to said that I want to…

At first, I wasn’t sure what I was going to end up doing with my life. I was lost, and afraid that I would never amount to anything. But as of today, I have found my purpose in life. Using my exceptional math skills, I plan on starting my own accounting business. Math is something I enjoy; I can’t remember a time when I struggled with a problem. It would bring me great joy to get paid for doing what I love. Until I get to where I want to be in life, there are some goals I must achieve. My…

There are so many people want themselves to achieve their goals, because everyone has their own dreams.

No one can achieve their goals and dreams right away, because of the reality. Nowadays we all have so many distances…

“Friendship, I suppose, comes at a price” Robert Louis Stevenson, Big World The road rushes past me as I stare down at the never-ending highway lines, listening to the Volkswagen’s engine threshing away behind us. Never thought that I’d be doing something that I’ll regret for the rest of my life, but here I am, a whole milestone away from my family, speeding down the highway before the sun rises, and as the sky turns a soft blue. I see the sun breaking the horizon as it shines its warmth down…

When it comes to success everyone has a different idea of what it should be. No one can sit down and tell you what it means to be successful . . . you have to figure it out on your own. Mainly, because success is specific and different to each person. In my opinion success is when you work hard to accomplish the goals you set out to do. When you get the drive to want to accomplish something you also get into the mindset of wanting to do good. And, when you have your drive and mindset you’ll…

Failure is part an experience that comes with being a student and these experiences of going off course has shaped my choices and views in different ways. Since I was young being a pharmacist has been my dream. I grow up watching my aunt dream of being a pharmacist came true, she loved and enjoyed going to work. Her achievements inspired me to…

Mack and Leeann’s Guide to Short-Term Missions was a very interesting book and I learned a lot about short-term missions from it. I liked how they used their personal stories in order to help get the point they were making across and because of this I was able to follow along well and was able to apply my personal experience with short-term missions because I was able to better understand the points they were making. Chapter one of Mack and Leeann’s Guide to Short-Term Missions talks about how…

The leadership role is a position that has many pro and cons. The main concept about being a leader is to have the knowledge and ability to lead groups in the direction, where the groups desire to go. It is difficult at times to maintain the wants and needs of each member in the groups. There are some members that will disagree with methods that some leaders use. It is understandable that not every member in groups will agree with how the leaders are leading their groups. There are various ways…

I’m trying to process my emotions and make sense of this loss. However, as I reflect back on our relationship, compatibility and the core of what made us, “us,” I find myself unable to accept this abrupt conclusion. This is how I interpret the foundation of our relationship when it is broken down into the three components we spoke of: Our physical intimacy/passion is undeniably strong in, almost, every way. This includes; our sex lives (attraction and desire for each other), the activities we…
