Is Everyone the Same? Narrative When I was 13 years old I went to a Boy Scout event with thousands of Scouts, that was 15 days long called National Jamboree, which was held out in West Virginia. It wasn’t going to be like any other normal scout trip I’ve been on where it’s just my friends and I that go on a weekend campout. This was going to be a fun and a very adventurous trip with people from all over the world in which I had no clue what I was going to expect. I’ve never been around other…

For many people, their first day at college is one of the most stressful days of their lives. They simply do not know what to expect in this new environment. Even though it was stressful for me, too, it was also one of the most exciting days of my life. It was my first day of attending university in the United States which I knew was the first step toward reaching my ultimate goal. I got to meet many new and interesting people who shared similar interests to me. Overall, my first day of college…

Who moved my cheese has four little characters, two were mice named Sniff and Scurry and the other two were littlepeople named Hem and Haw. Sniff and Scurry same as Hem and Haw spent their daily lives searching for special cheese, which refers to what they desire in life. If we relate this to an organization, the two mice Sniff and Scury have different ways in finding their cheese or reaching their goal than the two little people Hem and Haw. They also have different characteristics and…

opportunities and considering every option. They set out to ensure that I would be able to do this. I learned to play the violin and piano through private lessons, learned to play soccer, basketball and tennis, learned how to swim, took part in Cub Scouts, attended Korean School for many years, traveled to foreign countries such as Nicaragua to help those less fortunate than me and much more, all painstakingly paid for by my poor but hardworking parents. The sole purpose of getting involved in…

My story begins at Onteora Scout Reservation in Upstate New York. The Boy Scouts of America have an honor society known as the Order of the Arrow, which is for Scouts who wish to dedicate themselves to an order that serves others more than that of the Boy Scouts. Scouts are selected through a troop-wide vote, and I was one of the few scouts selected to participate in the ordeal to join this order. The ordeal was a series of tests in order to confirm that we, the candidates, are fit to join…

Boy Scouts was initially something that I never truly expected to enter my life. The most exposure I had of it was cartoonish representations that I would see in the funnies section of the newspaper or spoofs of the organization in my daily cartoons. This all changed when my friend one day invited me over to one of the weekly meetings. I was a little scared at first, a group of people I didn’t know was frightening to my middle school self. But for some reason; I’m not sure now if it was the…

afraid to voice opinions and expect positive feedback/encouragements. During group supervision, the instructor gave information that would be useful in any setting and with any populations. She provided information about mental status exams, crisis plans, therapeutic group topics, goal setting, interviewing skills, assessment process, and counseling strategies/techniques. I feel that I learned more about counseling during my group supervision, I used most of the information Dr. Sias provided at…

The Ministry of Business was an eye opener of how to integrate God based values and principles into business. We have to start with ourselves. Our personal life has to be to the standard that we can have personal revelation for ourselves and for our business. I am going to focus on 5 points that I thought were important in the book. First, Steven Hitz teaches us that there is no coincidences. Heavenly Father has a purpose in everything that happens to us. Hitz summarized, “Follow the prompting…

February of 2010, after graduating from cub scouts, I joined The Boy Scouts of America. I started out as a timid young boy, who did not have many skills, but throughout the many years, it had a major impact on my life and taught me many things about myself. Boy Scouts truly impacted my life. One way scouting has impacted me is by teaching me morals and values. In Boy Scouts there is a “Scout’s Law,” which details the morals and values that a scout must live by. Scouting has also impacted me…

To everyone who has an opinion on Boy Scouts of America's decision on letting girls join the program, I thank you for your insight and respect everyone’s point of view. And while the facts are that BSA intends to start a program that will begin to integrate girls into BSA by having “Girls Only Troops”, it still does not change the core argument that BSA is changing the dynamic of Boy Scouts. This is the first step to the inevitable merger of male and female troops. While the troops, for now,…
