During my life, I never had a passion that I could stand beside and truly be proud of. Everyone around me seemed to be interested in so many things and I could not answer my own question of what I was passionate about. As high school ended, I carried a constant fear that I would never discover my purpose and the right career path. Over this past year I have finally realized that I was born with a natural interest and love for animals. My interest in Hawai’i Pacific University is for more than just the marine biology program. Moving to Hawaii and going to school at the University would offer me numerous opportunities to interact with other people who have the same passion as I do. I would be able to reach out to businesses and make connections with organizations that relate to my major. Living in Iowa is not practical when I am wanting to pursue a occupation that is usually not located in the middle of the United States. Staying in Iowa for school would still give me great …show more content…
I know that the University has many international students and it would be amazing to get to know everyone and learn about their background. I am excited to make connections and I’m looking forward to learning about different cultures and also Hawaiian history. It may come as a surprise, but Iowa does not get very many international visitors. I would take advantage of my new life and approach it with a positive and friendly attitude.
To help understand where I am coming from, I would not take this opportunity for granted. I waited my whole life to discover what I am passionate about and to go to school in Hawaii is a goal waiting to be achieved. Hawai’i Pacific University is a great way for me to open new doors and to take another step towards my desired profession. My lack of knowledge in the past will help me succeed greatly by now knowing that this is what I am meant to do and I’m going to give
If you could go to U of I, UNI, or Iowa State, where would you go and why?
I used to tell my friends and teachers that I wanted to explore the medical field because that was what my family wanted me to do. They wanted me to become a doctor as it is a well praised profession that pays extremely well. As I grew older and entered middle school, I realized that becoming a doctor wasn’t something I was immensely interested in. Instead of a doctor, I wanted to become a veterinarian, treating animals instead of people. I’ve become aware of my passion for animals ever since I began having pets: from fish to hamsters to dogs. I decided to focus on animals when I first took one of my hamsters to a veterinarian. I thought that their profession was fun and interesting because it revolves around animals, something that I love and grown up with. Although studying veterinary sciences is difficult and competitive, becoming an animal doctor has been one of my greatest
I believe UW-Green Bay is the university for me, and that I am a perfect candidate to help enrich this prestigious university both academically and socially. Many personal traits, experiences, and goals I have directly correlate with UW-Green Bay’s mission statement and goals for their students. Also, located just off the Lake Michigan shoreline, UW-Green bay offers a beautiful campus for its students, which intrigues me as an individual as a place I can see myself living and enjoying as I work toward my undergraduate degree. In addition, UW- Green Bay has all beautiful state-of-the art facilities and learning centers that I visited that I truly can see myself living in, learning in, and creating new friends and memories in. I believe this
I live in a place where most people would call a dream; A place of beauty, a place of Aloha. Growing up I learned to never take Hawaii for granted. To be from Hawaii means to be surrounded by it's traditions and it's culture. Hawaii is more than my home, it is a part of me and who I am.
I am interested in attending Azusa Pacific because I believe that the University will afford me the with the opportunity to achieve both my academic and spiritual goals that I wish to accomplish. Attending the University would allow me to continue learning and growing in a Christian environment as I have attended Christian schools the majority of my k-12 years. Attending Azusa Pacific will help me grow as an individual and it will help me uncover my passions in life, as well as strengthen my relationship with God.. My ultimate goals of life are to find happiness and freedom and I believe that I will be able to reach these goal along with others if accepted into Azusa Pacific. The keys to happiness and freedom are love, family, friends, support,
The reason why I came to Hawaii is because I wanted to teach our religion. About God heaven and h*ll and how if you believe in him you can go to heaven. So right now the missionaries and myself are working on the hawaiian language. This is because, they do not have a written language. And once we made a language for them then we can teach them about the
At a young age I was always at conflict with myself over my future career. Multiple topics such as baking and pathology grasped my attention but were immediately forgotten as I came across my love for animals. As I explored the many directions one could go with such a detailed topic I reached the conclusion of becoming a Companion Animal
Ever since I can remember I have always had a passion for animals. Their beauty and ability to comfort me are only outmatched by their honesty, loyalty and faithfulness. My path to realizing that my true calling lies in veterinary medicine began when I took a life biology course in high school. In this course I realized my intrigue with animals went far beyond their cute and cuddly parts. I was interested in how they worked from the inside and realized that I should be their doctor.

The ability to call college my home, especially when I am far from home, is pivotal in my college decision. From conversations I have had with Michigan students and alumni, the importance of the diverse population is stressed. Michigan delivers a comfortable environment where the staff and peers are friendly. This leads to the creation of a community where people are not afraid to try new things and reach out if needed. This culture is created through many groups and clubs available at the LSA. For instance, the University of Michigan gives a way for students to find people who share the same interests as them. From debates to the cultural shows; there is always an activity to appeal to people of different backgrounds and interests thus I will always feel
I can just picture it now the sandy beaches, beautiful sky, and I gagging because the salt water that got in my mouth was disgusting. When I went to Hawaii I had the time of my life. There were just a few things that were annoying, but I spent all of it with my family and that’s what mattered.
Last week I arrived at Hawaii or the Sandwich Islands and when I got there, all the native Hawaiians had poorly choice of clothes since it showed a lot of their skin. Since we were sailing for over 4 months, they were incredibly kind and nice to share how they live with some of my friends and me. My hair has grown down to my rib cage since the last time, I saw you my hair was only down to my shoulders. I have lost 21 pounds by just carrying heavy boxes and a printer and everything else off of the ship and eating scarcely. My bones were aching yesterday so, I asked the Hawaiians if they have any medicine. Unfortunately they didn’t, but the good thing was that the nurse we brought from the ship was in the next house and she had some. My friends
Along with the beautiful city and campus, I look forward to an opportunity to be a part of another strong community, like the one I grew up in. I’ve heard many great things about UW- La Crosse’s community from friends and UW- La Crosse faculty. After touring the campus this summer, I realized what a safe and welcoming community LAX has to offer!
When people plan to attend Hawaii they think of beautiful beaches, great exotic food, and the smell of wonderful flowers never before smelt. That is exactly what they get, from turquoise blue water to skyscraping palm trees Hawaii has so many exotic things to see. Also all the great smells of Hawaii from the wild fruit to the roasted pig on the beach Hawaii definitely brings to mind one thing happiness. In Hawaii there are many things that bring happiness to mind such as the extravagant smells, not to mention the beautiful sights, and most of all the spectacular taste in the exquisite food they have in Hawaii.
I would love to visit the Pacific Northwest someday. I have a friend that was stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY with me that moved back to Oregon. She has always said the door is open to come visit. I should take her up on that since I have never been to the West Coast or seen the Pacific Ocean. You mentioned in your reply to my post that you have never been to Florida. Florida, along with so many states, has so many wonderful things to see and experience. If you have never been to the ocean where the water reaches 85 plus degrees, I would suggest you add that to you bucket list. Congratulations on pursuing your Masters. I am happy that I will finally have a college degree after so many years out of school and look so forward to getting
