Last year, in October during the cheerleader’s concert, that my mom and dad were singing at, I asked, “Do you want to dance?” My mom said, “yes”. Walking out to dance, she fell and accidently tripped me and landed on my ankle. It felt as if someone was breaking my leg in half. It got really numb where I couldn’t feel it, but I still knew I was in some pain. Picking me up off the ground, my mom sat me on the bleachers. Everyone came over there and it was really embarrassing. My dad carried me to the car and we drove to the dollar store to buy me an icepack to put on it.

I have been able to see the joy on a child’s face when they finally make a shot, the joy on their face when they learn how and when to cross the street, and the joy on their face when they realize that they have the potential to be anything they want to be in life. Being able to watch this all happen has allowed me to realize that I want to see these kinds of amazing reactions every day for the rest of my life. On top of this, I want to be the one to allow them to have this reaction. To me, it is the best feeling in the world when I know that I have helped someone do something they felt they couldn’t do before. This being said, my volunteer work has persuaded me into the direction of the medical field. I feel this has happened because the medical field gives me an enormous variety of ways to impact lives

When I first started thinking about college schools I never thought about going to MSU or Ole Miss. I wanted to go to the bigger universities, but I knew I wouldn’t do well if I went there my first year. My high school did not prepare me enough for University, and I hadn’t decided on a major either. I choose East Central Community College (ECCC) as the school I would go to for many reasons, and when I got here I knew I made the right choice.

Outside of school, I'm thoroughly involved in my community. I've already done one hundred and fifty-five hours of community service (and counting). I'm mainly involved with TCLBAF (Tri-Cities Lady Bulldogs Athletic Foundation) Inc., where our mission is to mentor youth in our community. We expose them to sports and

During my sophomore in high school at Wausau East, my parents told me that in a couple years, I was going to college and I needed to start thinking about what I want to do for a living. I knew right away that it was going to be something dealing with healthcare, but what specifically, I did not know. There was, however, a class titled Young Adult Medicine that was all about exploring occupations in the healthcare field and it lit a fire beneath my big decision. On one of the tours and job shadows that my classmates and I went on, this one in particular was to the Sport and Spine Clinic in Wausau. Every second we got to witness just a sneak peek of what a physical therapist job is like, the more I was intrigued by it and I began to ask myself

I remember being four years old in my preschool class and a little boy coming in one day with a bandage over his ear, because his ear drum had ruptured. I just remember having this overwhelming feeling to make sure that he was okay. So much so that during nap time, I made sure that my nap pad was right next to his, just so that I could make sure that he wasn’t hurting or in pain. Since that instance, I have always been a person that has been compelled to help people. It’s a part of my internal genetic code. The older I became, the more I realized that going into the field of medicine was easily my best platform to be in a position to help people. When I think about being a doctor, I get filled with an overpowering feeling of excitement. I get to be the person that someone trusts with their care, a person that someone trusts to treat their ailments with respect, a person that can use their mind

Being part of the Sports Medicine program at Citrus Hill High School has given me so many new opportunities. I´ve been part of this program for two years now and I can not see myself doing anything else beyond this point. When I first joined, I never thought I would care so much for it and actually want to take the next step and do this in college. I have learned so within these two years and I want my life to be surround with it.

When I first started going to Terra State Community College I was an eighteen-year-old with two jobs and ambition towards the medical field. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I began my first semester by taking very broad classes so that I could use them towards any career. I remember looking up different career paths that I could possibly take through Terra and weighing my options. I then came across medical assisting, a truly perfect career for me. I met with my advisor and set up a visit with Mrs. Hopkins, and as soon as I sat down with her, I knew this is what I wanted to do. This field allowed me to do everything that I could of imagine wanting to do within the medical field.

I slowly cut the heart out of the folded paper and held it up to the light. The edges were jagged and uneven; I tossed it in my growing pile of scrap paper. My hands were stained with marker and my hair was covered in glitter. It was bedtime and I was not even halfway done with the valentines for my third-grade class. I wanted my cards to look great- better than store-bought. I was so frustrated that tears welled in my eyes. The next morning, defeated, I went to CVS with my mom to buy cards. Everyone liked the Kit-Kat bars taped to the backs.

Throughout high school, I started to explore other pathways and passions and began to think about pursuing something in the medical or therapy field. During a gap year spent in Uganda after my senior year of high school, I volunteered at a babies home where I decided that I wanted to pursue physical therapy as a career. It was so amazing to see the difference that just 15 minutes of daily therapy made in these young children. I watched as an 18 month old went from not being able to hold his own head up to sitting up straight and tall. I watched as kids were no longer bound by the physical shortcomings of their bodies and they were able to thrive. This is what I wanted to do with my life. Physical therapy is a career that perfectly combines my aptitude for science and critical thinking, my compassion and people skills, and makes a huge difference in

I decided that I wanted to be a doctor my freshman year of high school. I did not know what kind of doctor, but I knew I wanted to help people. Through my upbringing in a military family, I often saw people in pain whether it was from the loss of a loved one, injury of a loved one, or an injury or sickness of themselves. Once I became fully aware of all the pain around me, I decided that the best way for me to help these people was to pursue a job in the healthcare field and become a doctor. Though my path in healthcare I would be able to improve their quality of life and lessen their pain, which is very rewarding and is one the driving forces of my pursuit of a higher education. As I continued my education in middle school and high school

Entering high school was not exactly something I was looking forward to because school had always been difficult for me as I struggled to stay focused in the strictly structured learning environment. Although I had to study longer and harder than many of my peers, I remained committed to making good grades and putting forth my best effort. Fortunately, my outlook regarding school changed when I developed an interest in the Medical field. During my sophomore year my mom tore her ACL and MCL, and the exercises she performed and information she was given during her physical therapy sessions intrigued me. Perhaps my mom’s unfortunate injury played an important and positive role in helping me discover my passion for Medical Science. During my junior

Then the 134 arrived. I got on, showed my pass to the bus driver and
