What matters to me and why? Growing up I always thought tv‚ boys‚ and basketball was important me. However‚ as I got older those things faded out becoming less important to me. For this reason‚ I have started to mature and recognized what really matters to me more than anything. God‚ my family‚ and my goals keep me going throughout all my struggles‚ making me strong to accomplish all the things I want in life. First and foremost‚ is God because without him I wouldn’t be here and I wouldn’t strive

Astronomy was the first science that interested me. As a child I subscribed to Young People’s Records. Every month I received in the mail a 10-inch 78 RPM record‚ or sometimes a package of two records. One day I received a record called "By rocket to the moon". It contained a fictional story about a trip by space ship around the moon and back to Earth‚ some 19 years before that actually happened‚ as well as some facts about the planets‚ which in those days included Pluto. That sparked my interest

Without being born in a different country and having to move to a different country in the first five years of my life‚ I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I had difficulties with the language barrier and being different from the other kids made me realize that‚ from a young age‚ being different made me special. I moved from Roxas City‚ Philippines to Lebanon‚ New Hampshire in 2005. At the age of five‚ I travelled with my mom‚ dad‚ and little sister. I had already started my education in the Philippines

Although my motives for becoming a nurse have not always been set in place until now‚ I remember the thought of thinking that this is the path I want to go in. I enjoy working and helping others by trying to find possible solutions to fit their needs. Towards the end of my high school career‚ I wasn’t really sure what career path would best suit my characteristics. As time progressed and after considering nearly every career choice there was‚ I decided nursing was the profession for me as it would

They All Look the Same When I was younger‚ I didn’t necessarily have the highest grades and I wasn’t the most talented student‚ but what set me aside from others was my desire to succeed. That desire only transpired when I entered high school. Many people would not assume that I once struggled with reading numbers and words because they all looked the same. When I was five‚ my teacher made my class count to one hundred every day. I was good at math‚ but I struggled to identify the numbers two and

Your Company: How To Get Started Many people think starting a business is a daunting‚ allusive process that’s more of a dream than a reality‚ but that simply isn’t true. Anyone can start a business if he/she is willing to believe in themselves and work hard. Starting a business should not simply be a struggle to come up with an idea that has never been done before.

¬My personal triangle consists of Malaysia‚ the country I was born in‚ along with Indonesia and Singapore‚ where my parents migrated from. As a frequent traveller to these neighbouring countries‚ an observation that has intrigued me is that although Singapore was the last country to obtain independence‚ the nation has vastly developed to become an economic powerhouse‚ constantly topping the HDI and GDP per capita index. This makes me ponder upon what had stereed the island nation to achieve astonishing

I believe one of the most admirable things a person can do is give back‚ whether it be community service or volunteering. I try my hardest to make sure I make a positive difference in my community. When I was a child‚ I thought that just study in the classes‚ finish all assignments‚ and do well in the tests were enough to become a successful person. But now I realize‚ all of those were not the most important. In an attempt to create a difference‚ I joined the International Club last year. The purpose

When asked to think of a person whom I feel empathy for‚ one person stands out in my mind‚ my brother. All my life‚ I’ve looked up to him. His charisma‚ sense of humor‚ and way with people caused him to be the apple of every teacher’s eye‚ the boy every girl liked‚ and the friend everyone wanted. However‚ these good qualities were taken to the extreme in his years of high school‚ taking him down a path to destruction. After countless parties‚ explosive fights‚ signs of complete disrespect‚ and

I know me. I know who I really am. I know what I am capable of. I am independent and I don’t need anyone to tell me who I am or what I should do. I have been the same person from the time I was born and I will remain the same person till I die. The argument of enduring and independent self is been going on for centuries. But can we really say that we have an enduring self? Do we depend on others or are we independent? I believe that we do have an enduring self. We are not fully independent we depend
