Each morning I wake up and I put on my uniform. As I lace my boots and fix my collar, I ask myself why I put this uniform on every morning. My answers vary by day, but it all comes down to responsibility. A seemingly specific answer can actually be quite broad. I fulfill a duty responsibility to myself, my community, my country, and my world. Ever since I was a kid, I always had big dreams and goals for my life. Now that I have more experience and I have started my college career, I continue to set high goals and standards for myself because my primary job is being a leader of one. This is why I have a responsibility to my curiosity, passions and my education. I am currently enrolled in the College of Engineering as well as the Honor College. I plan to earn a major in Biological Systems Engineering accompanied by a double minor in Green Engineering and Arabic. My curiosity and dedication to my learning has driven me to pursue these fields. In my time at Virginia Tech I hope to complete a study abroad program in an Arabic speaking country.

Growing up in the United States, I have had many privileges that other kids are deprived. It is important to me that I serve my country and protect the place that promotes freedom and opportunity. My responsibility to my country is to give back through service. If I am unable to continue my path towards military service I plan to give back through programs such as AmeriCorps. Even though the United States is a developed and advanced country, there are still places that could use improvement. Through AmeriCorps, I can help after natural disasters, help with education, or help areas suffering poverty. Virginia Tech offers a high quality education and practical experience that I can use to equip me with the knowledge and skills to help give back to my country. First, I want to serve my country then I want to serve my
The concept of purpose best describes why I want to become a Naval Officer. Throughout high school, I have cherished my opportunities to lead teams towards the accomplishment of meaningful goals, such as collecting life-saving blood for nearby hospitals, and assisting struggling students and community members. These service opportunities are deeply meaningful to me, but as I have learned from my grandfather, who served in the U.S. Army during World War Two, my step-father, a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, and my other grandfather, who served as a Naval Officer during the Vietnam
DI would say, successfully starting over as a non traditional student is my most meaningful achievement to date. While I've achieved most, if not all, goals that I've set to carry out, Most meaningfully, coming to terms with a juvenile decision and not giving up serves as my most telling accomplishment.
Service brings me great joy, and I continually seek ways that I can help those around me. The day after school gets out, my youth group and I are leaving for Mexico City to serve with an organization, Niños de Mexico, that provides a safe house for orphans and children from broken homes. I also recently committed to volunteering my time each Sunday with the kids at my church. My efforts to serve extend through my daily life as well, for example, when sister has had a rough day, I make her tea or brownies. I take care of my neighbor’s kids for free when they’re having a busy week. None of these tasks feel like work to me, I love to help people as much as possible. I look forward to the new service opportunities National Honor Society will provide.

My Responsibility to America There are approximately 3.25 million citizens in America, and I am one of them. Each individual person has different responsibilities to conduct including me. Some of my responsibilities to America include honoring the American flag, respecting every single one of my veterans, and continuing all of the American traditions that have been in place for decades. The first and one of the most important of my responsibilities is honoring the flag.
Some individuals tend to dread the words “responsibility” and “commitment” in typical matters of life; however, when involved with their rights and their country, many exhibit a deep sense of patriotism. Responsibility and commitment carry a weight that many are unwilling to bear. However, many perceive that the patriotic responsibilities that protect and encourage our freedoms are worth defending. You observe this in those who willingly risk their lives, in those who use their careers for the betterment of others, in those who profess their beliefs despite opposing voices, and in those who uphold and obey the law. My patriotism begets my desire to serve my country. My fundamental responsibilities

As American citizens, it is our responsibility to reach our highest potential. That potential in our career, our families, our way of living, and by being the best person we can be.

During my time at The University of Texas at Arlington I plan to achieve my goals of becoming successful academically all while being voluntarily active in the UTA community to better benefit the university. Ultimately, my goal is to be admitted to medical school by the time I graduate. The biology degree that I am working to receive will pay dividends towards my personal goals of becoming an exceptional medical school applicant.

Coming from a third world country with helpless citizens, poor sanitary conditions, and subpar health standards
Every American citizen has a responsibility weather that be paying taxes, voting in elections, serving on a jury, or simply obeying laws. I believe being an American citizen is more than just paying taxes, obeying laws and serving on juries. For me being an American citizen is about honoring and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice. John Thune a Republican representative once said,” I believe our flag is more than just cloth and ink. It is a universally recognized symbol that stands for liberty, and freedom. It is the history of our nation, and it’s marked by the blood of those who died defending it.” I personally believe that my responsibility to America is to serve, protect, preserve our nation for future generations, and to honor those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. I wish to serve God, our country, and to people who

Something that make me smile, gets me excited, makes me do something is softball. I have played ball all since the day I could walk. I started off playing baseball since I was 2 years old. Then at age 8 I went on to play softball for a select softball team in Pearland. Playing softball has always made me smile! I love the intensity, excitement, and the teamwork that is used to play ball. We all look out for each other and try to pick each other up even when we are not all in the spirit. Some activities that involve science, technology, engineering, and math that I find to be fun is robotics and underwater robotics. Robotics has always been a big part in my life because my dad is a robotics teacher for this school and I always loved playing
Attributes that a responsible and faithful citizen acquires; many of which include respecting the laws and authority, diversity, property, and the environment. A responsible citizen contributes to the community, has a willingness to learn, is considerate, and many other characteristics. But words can never describe the act taken upon in such manner of cede as in 9/11. Through my citizenship and the courageous acts taken during and after 9/11, I have learned that serving is one of my many responsibilities, responsibilities that can be acted upon now or in the future. I currently serve in my church, high school, and family. In the future, I will be serving on government requirements such as: jury duty, paying taxes, and the option of voting. I have found that as an American, my citizenship is a treasure I must take pride in. Privileges and rights are just a factor of having a citizenship. The Founding Fathers of our nation believed in citizenship and my responsibilities are a minor act of gratitude towards the efforts and honor to others who have gone before me to do the same for the past
