I have grown up as a middle child in a small town called Valley City, where there is such a thing as “bring your tractor to school day.” I have always loved to learn and naturally strived to do my best in school. I am a first generation college student. My childhood dream was and still is to become a doctor. It all started when I would treat my younger brother, Anthony, as my patient. I mostly just covered him in Band-Aids. My family was pretty well off until my parents divorced. Since then, life
I am not like a typical community college student. I migrated to the Unites States at the age of 12 with my family. Moving to the US at this age was quite challenging; however, having to grow up in a third world country in an impoverish environment was even more challenging. I remember it very vividly; the company that my father worked for shutting down, thus taking away my families only source of income. Due to the economic instability, it was extremely difficult for my father to find another job
Tired of my Honda Accord 2014 Sport I am a college student. My father and Mother works as a house-keeper, they do not speak English. We moved to the United State of America in 2011. We currently live in Chattanooga, TN. Most of the times, my dad drives a car. I drive may be once or twice a month. Our family like this car; and since my parents’ work is just about couple miles from home Accord does not have high mileage. Plus, the main reason for spending good amount of money on this car was because
With so many ways to describe who I am, I think I will start off with the basics. I am a college student that attends Drake University. I would identify myself as hard-working, responsible, and persistent. At the beginning of the term, I identified myself as how I felt in the moment with answers such as tired, hungry, and bored. Yes, those were traits I identified myself within the moment, but now I try to look far and beyond the present. I want to identify myself as someone who strives to achieve
I am currently a student at Feather River College and have, so far, been thoroughly enjoying my educational experience here. However, it has come to my attention that the retention rate at our college is only 52 percent which is low compared to other community colleges in the surrounding area. Butte College, for example, has a retention rate of 70 percent with nearly nine times the annual enrollment of Feather River College. I believe that the high percentage of students who do not return to Feather
Obstacles I am a college student. I have an excellent life, but also I have some obstacles that impede my life from being perfect. There are obstacles between me and my goals. The obstacles that I have in my life are the distance from my parents, learning English, and being bullied in 7th grade. My first obstacle is living far away from my parents. I had never lived anywhere else other than Mexico, and the fact that my parents are far away from me and bit here by my side makes me feel alone. I left my
I 'm a college student on a typical college student 's budget, and I moved into my apartment about a year ago. Let me tell you this, I just now decorated my room. Yes, I spent an entire year staring at stark white walls, with nothing but last years calendar and my celebrity crush of the moment hanging o the wall beside my bed. There 's nothing inviting about an undecorated room, in fact it 's sort of depressing, and I wouldn 't recommend it to anyone. No matter what your budget, decorating is important
When I was an undergraduate college student, studying required much more effort. Despite a strong desire to learn, and a passion for biology, my educational experiences was not ideal. During my sophomore year in college I started teaching my peers to test myself if I knew core concepts. This is where I developed a love for anatomy and physiology as well as a desire to teach. I chose to further this love through the Anatomy Program through Wright State University. Progressing through graduate school
choice I have made, those major and minor decisions have led me to where I’m today. I was raised in Lakeville Minnesota. Lakeville is new and upcoming suburb in the south metro. It’s known for its spectacular school district, being safe and nearly utopian atmosphere. Growing up, I was typically the center of attention, being the baby of the family. Many factors, (unexpected and predetermined) have brought me to where I am today as a college student. In my elementary years I was an average student and
