Being an active member of a community is critical to creating a good learning atmosphere. The word community is sometimes overused and does not get the emphasis it desires. People want to feel apart of something and creating a functioning system is necessary for success. I have always had a love for working with a team and as a leader‚ I try to help others achieve their goals. If I attended Villanova‚ I would make the noun community become a verb by helping others‚ accepting others‚ and leading others

Tracking The problem I was trying to solve was my unwillingness to complete my homework. I usually don’t complete before the due date‚ or if I feel I can get away with it I won’t do it at all.

The first week went just as I expected it to be‚ but with some unexpected gamechangers. Scheduling in study

The phrase “I’m going to kill you” is said then the father ends up dead the same night just a couple hours later. I doubt that is a coincidence. The older gentleman who lives

Spring Break rolled around‚ same as always. My so-called friends ran off to get drunk or high or whatever it was they did down in Florida. I‚ like a sane person‚ went home and studied because I wanted an actual job instead of slinging fries for the rest of my life and getting a beer gut. Or I tried to study. You don’t skip three grades‚ get a 2400 on your SAT‚ and get into Princeton at sixteen if you’re stupid. But sitting in my old bedroom on the twin bed I’d finally outgrown‚ listening to the TV

Sunday‚ March 19‚ 2017 is a day I will never forget. A friend and I were at Rhino Coffee Downtown having some girl time and playing catch up. As I was sipping on my glass of prosecco‚ owner Andrew Crawford walked in and we spoke. After our initial greeting‚ he uttered five words that shattered my world‚ "They aren’t any oysters this year". I IMMEDIATELY knew what he was talking about. There was no question about it. Andrew had just burst my Shreveport Derby Day bubble by letting me know that I wouldn’t

On my trip to Myanmar I learned how to cherish my life here in the United States and to strive to reach my full potential in school. My parents‚ originally from Myanmar‚ have always encouraged me to strive for a career in medicine since becoming a doctor in my country was an admirable and reputable job. My parents were as strict as stereotypical foreign parents could be. They believed that education was very crucial in life. They would also flood my ears with their endless childhood stories‚ trying

While sitting in the waiting room of an emergency veterinary clinic‚ dressed only in blood-soaked pajamas‚ my innocent dream became a serious aspiration. The veterinarian spoke to my mother while I listened intently. Our dog lost his leg but he was alive and would recover. Next‚ she turned to me. She smiled and told me that by staying calm‚ reacting quickly‚ and holding his artery shut‚ I saved our dog’s life. Her words were the catalyst that sparked my genuine desire to pursue a career in veterinary

“Curiosity is one of the permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect.” The curiosity that Samuel Johnson refers to in this quote is something that I feel itching at me every day‚ especially since I have begun my journey in the world of medicine.
