Personal Narrative: A Career As A Career

I was never a kid that knew who I would become when I grow up. My interests ranged from wanting to become an interior designer to having a strong desire of becoming a pilot. I was often surrounded by healthcare professionals but I never imagined myself striving to become one. Little did I know that I would end up at a stage in my life where I would be sure about pursuing a career in healthcare. Although I have decided on my career path, I have yet to discover a particular field within healthcare that grabs my interest. The RA Internship will help me learn more about medicine and help me find a right field of study through clinical research experience and monthly lectures offered to me as an intern. Though this opportunity I will be able to

Growing up I always took part in extracurricular activities to be more active and social in my life. I grew up with two brothers who had very different interests in things than me so I had to rely on friends and activities to help me from becoming couch potato.

Scared, nervous, anxious my emotions were all over the place. I didn’t know the interview was going to be a group interview? “Great!” I said to myself, now I have to deal with making myself stand out more. I thought to myself I need this internship so I can be able to look at different careers in the medical field. I need to calm myself down now the interview is about to start. Each time it came to my turn I felt so nervous that I couldn’t get the right words out of my mouth. Nine questions went by and the interview was finally done. I shake hands with both interviewers as I step out the door I felt intimidated by the other applicants. I don’t even know if I aced the interview or completely bombed it.

Hello Andrew! Thank you for your service, Marine! What influenced you to choose Infantryman as your MOS? It’s great that you’re taking steps to improve your skills to be an asset in your business. What type of business do you have?

As a child, I never needed anything; I never wanted something that I did get. My father was a decent provider and my mother was a stay mother; however, becoming a parent a young age forces anyone to become an adult and start taking responsibilities.

The first obstacle that I have chosen in the call to adventure. Odysseus is called to fight the battle of troy but has trouble dealing with the fact that he has to leave his wife and his newborn son. I relate to this because I will soon be graduating high school and moving to Pennsylvania to pursue the rest of my education (college – bachelors, masters). I know that I want to pursue a career in the medical field but in order to accomplish that goal, I have to leave. I know that this is where I need to go and I know that this is the best option for me, but I do not want to leave my home, my family, my ordinary world. I struggle dealing with the fact that I will be living half way across the country and living on my own without the safety net

There are many professions that many people could be successful in. Teaching, being a lawyer, and being a doctor are all very great and important jobs. However, that career choice that I have chosen is to become a dancer/actor. This profession would allow people who love to dance/act express themselves in a place where people would understand all of the love towards it. People like that would want to go to Julliard. As a student interested in all of these things I would definitely want to go to Julliard because of their dance and drama department.

“Everybody has a Helene Tucker” By dick Gregory in Shame. When I was younger, all I ever wanted to be was a chef; however, as I got older, my career ideas changed drastically. I went through a few other stages before finally discovering that what I truly aspired to be was anything in the field of Medicine. My career choice as a Registered Nurse symbolizes all that I am: my abstraction, my motivation, and my passion.

Growing up away from home, I imagined myself in various roles. Fixing a career was easy in those days, but as I grew older, I wanted to take responsibilities and ingrain the sense of happiness and satisfaction in a profession. Gradually, I saw myself climbing up the mountain of medical world where the pebbles of uncertainty and discouragement never wore me out. The farther I grew, the more I wanted to achieve. Of course, Genius minds are not born, but working with great mentalities, learning from errors and having a persistent desire to excel can make you one. In my quest to deeply understand it, before scouting for options, I saw myself devoting extra hours in hospital milieu learning the intensity with which the physicians work.

When I woke up on August 7th, 2015, terrified for the day ahead of me. It was the day I would audition for my first company. I glanced over at my roommate, who I had spent the past four weeks with at Moxie Contemporary Ballet’s summer intensive. She was still asleep, so only the hum of the fan was my company. I slowly managed to get myself out of bed and prepared for the day. Around an hour later, I was ready for the day. I headed downstairs, with all of my luggage, to hop in a cab I had planned the night before.

In order to bridge the gap between where I am now and where I want to go, I will need to continue to flight instruct at Purdue Aviation, LLC and push my students as hard as I can to succeed. The gap obviously won’t just close itself; therefore, I am going to have to work harder than ever before. In order to bridge the gap between where I am as a pilot to what I need to do to become an aviator is to continue to work hard, upgrade when I can, and build seniority so that I can eventually have the pay and lifestyle that I want. Other than just being a flight instructor and working full time, I hope to get some sort of part time job flying a King Air with a company called Metal Technologies based out of Auburn, Indiana (KGWB). If I am able to do this, I will continue to rapidly build hours as an instructor and build multi engine time in the King Air when I am able to get a trip.

At the start of 2015 if you had asked me about anything car related I wouldn't have had an answer for you. However later that year I met a friend who introduced me to the world of cars. I was interested in it but never would've considered it as a career. Later in high school, during my senior year, I learned about a concurrent enrollment program offered through my school. One of the career-oriented programs was Automotive Technology. Initially, I was undecided joining the program but next thing I knew I found myself in a classroom learning about cars.

My education and career goals are to get an early childhood education degree from the University of Alaska, receive my teaching license, and hopefully find a job with Head Start or perhaps one of the public schools in Anchorage. I hope to achieve this within four years. I am returning to college after a 35 year break in which I had an acting career, got married, had two daughters and taught preschool classes in the Minneapolis park system for 13 years. My goals in teaching are to engage children in learning with scientifically based curriculum and use my talents and experience in music, creative drama and the arts to enhance my lesson plans. I have found that young children respond energetically and enthusiastically when lessons walk hand in

I have been trained to become a chemist since the first year of my high school. This is a challenging career, requiring analytical thinking, attention to details, and adaptability. It is also a well-paying and promising career. However, chemistry is not what I have always dreamt of doing the rest of my life. As someone who is concerned about the development of sub-Saharan Africa, I came to a conclusion that what this region needs is not only scientists but also people who know and understand leadership and international affairs. In this paper, I compare my strengths and abilities to the qualities that one should have in order to excel as a chemist and a diplomat.

The first time I knew I wanted to be grown up was when I was five. I wanted to pick out my own clothes and dress myself for my first day of kindergarten. My mom used to fix my hair and my sippy cup, but I began to grow and did not need her as often. At school teachers would ask, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Hands immediately shot up and answers such as Doctor, teacher, and Astronaut were blurted out. Now everyone has different answers. I was so fixated on being an Artist and having my art in a fancy museum one day. But as we grow, our minds change.
