As a food scientist, he was to me a great inventor who knew everything about the magic of taste, texture, and aroma; I still remember his lecture on “good” chocolate and how cocoa butter—solid at room temperature—melts readily in our mouths. Raised on an early appreciation for the power of applied science, I am now driven toward chemical science by a desire to uncover solutions to challenges in the modern world.

Without business, the world as we know it simply would not exist. I aspire to be an eloquent, well-rounded individual who effectively contributes to society and makes the world a better place, and I believe that pursuing a degree in business is the best way for me to go about achieving that goal.

I was sitting on my couch when my world fell apart. She sent me a text, They found out. I’m so sorry.

One evening when I came home from tennis practice, I saw my parents talking to each other in the same room; which was unusual, considering they have not spoken with each other since their divorce, and typically begin to argue when they communicate. They told me to have a seat on the pew of my piano because they had something important to address. My father had opened the conversation with one question: "Do you know what you 're going to do when we 're no longer here to support you?" I sat there contemplating what my answer will be, but all that came to mind is: I don 't know. Both of them initially began conversing about college, the career paths available for me, and those that would let me live a comfortable life. However, in my mind, I understood that all the jobs that paid well were not for me, but I withheld my thoughts and continued to listen to what their viewpoints.

I am applying for a masters degree in Tesol in the department of Education for fall of 2016. I obtained a bachelor’s degree in English Language and Translation from the University of Al Qassim in Saudi Arabia. The notion of completing my study in the United State is an objective of mine since I was in middle school. It is not my first time leaving home to study abroad. In the summer of 2007 before I started college I studied English in Great Britain for 6 months; combined I have studied in ESL schools for the past two and a half years. During that time, learning the language was not my only objective but also learning how teachers teach and what are the methods that work best for students, which I believe gives me advantage over other applicants. In addition I had a great deal of responsibility to my family whom decided to moved to the United State in order to find a better life for my mentally psychotic brother. It is these obligations that help shape me to be the person I am today.
