Snow crunches under worn heels, marking a single path across frozen empty cornfields spread afar and ever so still. It is an empty canvas, glowing lustrous in the light of the splendor above. The night is ablaze in flickers of light cast scattered across the darkness. Upon this frigid expanse I stand alone from the world, but for the dead remains of cornhusks trapped beneath the ice. My skin burns from the bite of the wind, but when I glance above, caught among the stars, I am perfectly content.
Growing up in the suburbs, I felt alive and yet, overwhelmed. Pulsing with electricity, the whole world was one click away, at my fingertips. A network of sights, sounds, and puzzles spread out before me, an overpowering and uncontrollable force. My life is run by schedules, planning each minute and precious second out in harsh ink. Everything must be in order, must be under control, and must have a purpose. Real life doesn’t run on a schedule; even the smallest decision can alter the direction of the future. I am frightened of just how much I am unable to see, how much I might overlook and be unable to safely tuck away in the far recesses of my memories. In the suburbs so close in contact with uncontrollable chaos, I am not can never be perfectly content. Instead, I find my peace in the middle of my Grandfather’s cornfields.
Dependence on control defines the way I run my life. It thrives upon my unease of the unknown, and binds me from moving against of what I am afraid of. I fear

To many high school students, college seems like a far away land, a mysterious place where everyone wants to be yet not many know how to get there. As children, our parents tell us how much time we have to think about college, and that it is too far down the line to think about. The truth is it is never too early to think about your future. I, like many people, put little thought into my future career and now am lost in an unfortunate mix of indecision and anxiety. Not knowing where you want to be in the future is a hard burden to bear. Many of us tend to find out that we only know what we do not want, not what we actually do want. Do we want to be poor? Absolutely not. Do we want a boring job? Of course we don’t. We all want our

Everyone has to make choices in their life. Some are everyday choices, like what to eat or drink. Others are more critical, like choosing a job. Important decisions take time to comprehend. Like with me, the decision to go to college was the most critical choice in my life and for my future, and I will never regret it. Going to college is important because it helps me find a job, it expands my knowledge, and it is a wonderful experience.
One of my favorite quotations is from John Wooden, former coach at UCLA; he states, “The most powerful leadership tool you have is your own personal example.” I am a perfect fit for Marquette University’s Honors Program because I am a natural leader, a strong communicator, and a well-rounded individual.

My interest for the Attorney Advisor position with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) arises from my longstanding commitment to constantly improve myself. I have always enjoyed legal research, writing, and the complexities of intellectual property.

To me college is like the next step of life to adulthood; it is where you get a taste of the authentic world and learn how to adjust and manage on your own. In addition, it can be a place of magnification and polished skills within a community that strives for a prosperous life with an effulgent vocation. Thus, attending college was compulsory for me in order to reach future goals, and North Carolina A&T State University (NCAT) transpired to be just right for me. The distance was within range and they have an outstanding mechanical engineering program that I could solemnly benefit from. Overall, attending this university has opened many doors of opportunities that arrange with my personal and professional goals through their culture and community. Furthermore, I endeavor to put myself first and review my precedent accomplishments to strive for better while exposing myself to incipient challenges and obstacles.
college for me is to not only shape me into a productive citizen but to prepare me for my future career and life in the real world. Like most students, I think a portion of college should be devoted to career preparation to ensure the move from college to career is an easy one and to make sure I've gained all college has to offer. Throughout my college career, I will take many courses I don't see the purpose of yet they are somehow related to my major. The purpose of these courses, although they seem unconnected and pointless are a major part of my academic success and future career.
An accomplished Alaska high school coach is taking the reins of the Lane Community College cross country program this fall. Those are just figurative reins, of course, unlike the literal reins Bill Steyer has held in the past as a competitive sled dog musher.
After graduating high school, no one prepares you for college. Most kids when they are finished with high school don’t even fantasize about going back to school. I have always wanted to go to college ever since I was a young kid. I also had dreams of myself going to college, but in my dreams, everything was picture perfect. In reality, college has been very challenging for me. No one tells you about the adjustments and complications that you would have to face to become a successful college student.
One of the most influential parts in my life has been my investment in high school football. To me it’s not just a game, it’s one of the best mentors that I can could ever choose to grasp. Through the memories and life lessons that have shaped me to be the best I can be, here is why I should be a student at Michigan State student.
In the twelve years of education we have we don’t always do a lot of prep work for college, in my opinion schools should start preparing students for college. Most people's worries are that students will burn out, but wouldn't you want to know sooner before you pay thousands of dollars for a college. Also it would be better for students to take classes that would help them in college. In many cases this would help students start thinking what they want to do in the future many students these days graduate high school and don’t know what they want to do next. Students have an opportunity to learn about multiple majors and can explore and find out what they have a passion for and what they want to major in.Helping students prepare earlier for college in high school is better to do earlier because it helps better prepare students for college and their careers.
Freedom of speech is important for kids like me. I am a product of drug addicts and alcoholics. When I was seven my sister Mckaila was born, and from that day forth I had to be her mother. I had to stay home from school to take care of her, my parents were not capable because of their actions. When I was almost eight my father was sentenced to twenty years in prison. A couple months after I turned eight my sister and I were sent to my grandmothers, my mother had been sentenced to ten years in prison. It was terrible there, she is a hoarder and the house was disgusting, but I had no choice and nobody cared to listen to what I had to say. One day when I was at school I was called to the office. There I was approached by a tall man. I was scared because I had no idea what was going on. A fifteen minutes later I was forced into his car and on my way to a children's shelter, my sister was already there. Even though we didn’t like being with our grandmother it was something new and we were
