Personal Narrative: My Decision To Excel In My College Career

My College and Career goals include graduating college and getting a job. I wish to attend the University of Alabama. I plan to major in occupational therapy or speech therapy. After I graduate with my bachelor's degree I wish to get my master's degree. After I finish my schooling I want to receive a job that allows me to provide for my family. I wish to receive this job in my degree's field. After receiving this job I wish to improve to reach a leadership role.

There are a couple of things about me that I think will help me succeed at Bellevue College. I take a lot of notes and set the necessary time aside to study. I am very self-disciplined and I have always been a very goal oriented person. When I started my job three years ago I set a goal that I would also obtain a degree in accounting. This is something I am taking very seriously and I can’t wait to gain knowledge to further my career.

There have been multiple experiences that I have had that would make me succeed at Penn State University. One experience is when I moved across the country. My freshman year I really struggled in high school. It was a big change and did not take it seriously enough. Then sophomore year came and I got a hang of it, but then I was hit with big news. My father tells me, in January, that we are moving to Scottsdale, Arizona In March. I was upset and shocked at first but then was really excited for this new experience. The worst part was leaving my mom, sisters, and grandparent’s all behind in New York. When I got there, I did not have any friends and was scarred about the change in school and the curriculum. After a while, I got the hang of it,

Ever since I could remember, science was the subject I enjoyed most in school. When I got into high school and people started asking, “what do you want to do when you get to college?” I never had an answer. Up until the beginning of my junior year, I always planned on studying biology and figuring out what I liked later on. College always scared me because in my group of friends I was the only one who did not have a plan after high school. I always felt like a deer in the headlights, not knowing where I am headed, until now.

am writing to you to inform you about my progress at City College. City College has become my second house, and I can say I have been taking advantage of this great new college experience. This past semester was very successful, and interesting; I took four classes which I passed with A’s. Even though I took only four classes, at the beginning it was very difficult to adapt to the big classes with hundreds of students, and long hours of study in order to past tests with good grades. However, all the efforts made this semester helped me to discover new passions on me that did not exist before.

I wrote this inspirational and persuasive book to stimulate all college bound student’s career decisions. A stimulated choice means that your college aspiration is prayerfully pumped-up with two of God’s counsels: spiritual enrichment and spiritual empowerment. These two activators serve to remind new college students to put God as their first priority.

Until recently, if faced with the task of describing a particular event or experience in my life that would influence my academic goals at CCU I am unsure I would have been unable to do so without giving it a significant amount of thought. In fact, I may have never been able to isolate one single experience that had such a significant impact. However, recently I was thrust into a situation that gave me pause and made me think how important it is for me to gain a better understanding and knowledge of the Word of God. For the last year my wife, daughters, and I have been between churches-going from one to the other searching for a place to call home. We’d spend a couple of weeks at one church, two months at another one before finally settling

Once I hit fourth grade, school from then on all the way to my very last day of senior year in high school was a very difficult journey. Not only was I difficult for me but also I had made life for my parents very difficult. In school I was always more concerned with girls and my year round swim team. I was one of those student who would never do their homework, however I would get A’s on the majority of my quizzes and test. Once I graduated high school I felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I felt like a free man. I felt like I was going to finally be in full control of my path. Once I graduated high school, I felt confident and empowered to decide what next step I wanted to take in my education. My parent were just relieved that I had graduate and were thankful that I was even entertaining the idea of going to college. I kissed a full ride swimming scholarship out the window because I couldn’t commit myself to my grades. Even though I was a nationally ranked swimmer, I essential had no future in swimming without getting into an elite college known for swimming. These ramifications taught me to take the next step more seriously, which ultimately are the main reason why I try my best to get good grades in college. If someone would have told me that I would make the Dean’s list in college when I was in high school, I would of laughed at them. The choices I made in the past and feeling the ultimate freedom has influenced me to take a different direction in my education.

Sometimes finding time to do everything you need to do is nearly impossible. Some people push somethings to the side for later, or they just completely forget about them. That is why my ability to balance all aspects of my life throughout my high school career has made me very proud. I have always loved playing sports, so when I got to high school, I was so ready to be one of those kids on the varsity team. I played basketball for two years and softball for two years, earning All Districts and All Regions honors for the 2016 and 2017 seasons. I also knew I wanted to be involved in the school, so I joined some clubs, Art Club, Spirit Club, Volunteer Club, National Honors Society, and Student Council. I have been on the board for volunteer club

For the first two and a half years of my college career I attended Sterling College. Sterling was a small, private, four year Christian college, where I had the opportunity to run track and cross country. I loved the Ed department there, however, transferring to K-State was the best decision for my family. I got married the week after my freshman year had come to an end, and my new husband got deployed to Kuwait shortly after, and then Iraq. While he was gone I decided to return to SC, and not let my track scholarship go to waste. When he returned last March we made it work with him living in our home here, and my living two hours away. It was very difficult, we had weekend visits, and then I came home. Well, we tried it again this fall and

When kids are first asked what they want to do when they grow up they typically list off things like a princess, superhero, fireman or a pilot. As everyone grows up these interests begin to morph as they mature and experience events. Since I started my high school career I have involved myself in many different activities that have shown a light on the type of career that I would like to purse at Indiana University.

In junior high, I could not wait to grow up. I wanted to be older, be able to drive wherever and whenever I wanted, and hang out with all my friends all the time. Little did I know, that is not really how it works. In junior high, I had a variety of friends and we hung out as often as we could. I was with the same group of girls all the time, we would go to school together, play sports together in the evenings, and hangout together on the weekends. In high school friends change and I was told that it would happen, but we all thought that it would never happen. We, of course, were wrong. Most of my high school career had been taken up with playing sports. It started the summer before my freshman year, I would go from a softball game, to basketball

In conclusion I have gone through a lot in my first 18 years on this earth. I have done many things that will help to form the person I will become. My life started in Alaska were things appeared to be perfect. However life changed a lot when my family moved to Indiana. The trip played a huge role in my passion to be a missionary. I developed relationships that have pushed me from Luke warm to on fire for the Lord. Zac Hess pushed me by showing me that I was Luke warm. Drew Nevien took me from the realization of being Luke warm, to stating to make changes to counter it. I was shown what love is from two girls named Katlyn, one a past girlfriend and the other a niece. I was given talents that push me to place friends in my life that honor God,

When I was a freshman, without an idea about my future or any knowledge of college outside my state, I watched Gossip Girl, a TV show, with my mom.One episode, the characters were discussing colleges-Harvard, Yale, Brown, NYU. I'd never heard of these places so I grabbed my computer and started researching. At the time, no one in my family had been to college and graduated; this was new territory. I was enthralled. Every school was so interesting and exciting. I continued down the magical, mainly Ivy League, college rabbit hole until I came across something particularly interesting: Stanford EPGY (Education Program for Gifted Youth) Online. I've always been the girl to take chances and see what happens, so I spent the summer filling out an

I have been attending your school for the past few weeks and loving every minuate of it. Unfortunately, I am not going to be able to continue due to the financial situation that my mother and myself are under. Being a Senior at Ponte Vedra Highschool, I am about to continue my education in college and with that the debt that amounts upthrough student loans. After talking with the bank and other finicial institutions, they have stated that I can either get my loans for college or to finish my flight training. My love for flying began when I started playing football at the age of 11. During my football games I would stop playing on the defensive line to watch a plane land at the airport across the street. After watching these planes for two years,
