A. Initial Thinking About My Career

I was not quite sure what I wanted to do when I first came to Providence College. However, after some contemplation and experience through introductory courses, I have decided that I would like to pursue a career in finance. I have always been an analytical person with a knack for using numbers in various ways. The first career that comes to mind would be a financial analyst. I understand that this sector of finance is extremely competitive and would take a lot of time and effort starting at an entry-level position to ultimately achieve my goal of becoming an analyst at a respected bank, but I am also a hard worker. The marks that I have received throughout my academic career are not solely because I am an intelligent person; it takes a lot of time and effort—and ambition—to accomplish such things. The position of a financial analyst also appeals to me because I know that these individuals are not simply crunching numbers alone behind a desk all day. Rather, they often work in teams—something I have done my entire life through sports. This leads me

    Once upon a time, there was a goddess named Jasmine. She rose from the lands of Magic City. She was the main god. She ran Magic City. She had two children and a magical Lady Bug that could talk. Even though Jasmine looked like the modern everyday woman, she wasn’t. She had powers that she passed down to her children Jaidyn and Julanii. Julanii was only a baby. But Jaidyn was a teenager, 16 to be exact. The family lived in Magic City for years. But Jasmine thought it was time for them to go out in the “real” world. So they moved to Maryland. Jaidyn was enrolled into Fairmont Heights High School. But there was a specific reason why Jasmine wanted to move. She wanted to send Jaidyn on a quest of helping and saving people in any kind of danger. She wanted to test her superhero qualities. Jaidyn had many of them. She had the ability to fly, read people’s minds, invisibility, and she had super speed. Her first day of school went by, and she actually made a lot of new friends. As weeks went by Jaidyn began to love her new life. Until one day, her superhero abilities were tested. She was walking home after school. She walked passed an alley to get to her house. When suddenly she heard a female’s scream and a man yelled “Give me the money!” Jaidyn knew what she had to do, she had to help her. But she didn’t want to be seen. All she had to protect her identity was a ski mask in her book bag. Slowly she put it on and flew to the scene. The man released the woman from his arms and she ran out of the alley. Jaidyn fought off the criminal, tied him up, and called the cops. When the police arrived they praised Jaidyn for her good work and took the man too jail. Jaidyn was the talk of the town since that day. But no one really knew who she was. All they saw her as was a girl in a ski mask. She continued to keep her identity as a secret. When Jaidyn and her family were watching the news one day, she saw that they were talking about “The girl in the ski mask”. It’s not much she…

    Peering into an 8:00 am class full of freshman college students, many observations can be made. There are students with their heads down, (obviously still listening to the professor) students with their pencils racing, students with their minds wondering, and students with their attention to the teacher. As one might note, not all students have their mind focused on what they paid for. Some people go through college as a party or just because it’s become one of societies “norms”; others have a set goal in mind. However, if used to its best ability, college allows one to gain an advantage over high school diploma holders, by attaining the knowledge, skillsets, and tools to achieve or explore their career goals.…

    So when I came to UNC as a freshman in 1982, I declared myself a Business Administration major by default. My sister had done the same thing when she went to college, and it seemed like a respectable major. It didn’t take long for me to realize that while the business classes were challenging and had a whole new feel, they didn’t inspire me with a vision for a career. I began to scour the Undergraduate Bulletin on a regular basis,…
