Personal Statement Of Purpose For A Student 's Office Room

To the common individual, a car is simply a means of transportation. However, from the social stand point, the automobile impacts people’s daily lives in a larger aspect. The modern automobile was inspired by a toy made for a Chinese emperor. The toy was not

I worked just as hard, yet my test results were notably underwhelming in comparison to my ‘top 10’ classmates. What was different about me, I thought every night before I fell asleep. Then I realized, I was alone in my cherishment of extracurricular activities. While my classmates were up late Friday nights studying, I was cheering on the sidelines, exerting myself to pep up the crowd via backflips. When others were reading ahead, I was helping to feed outlying communities. While the ‘top 10’ was still cramming, I was at a Wednesday worship program. I’m committed to giving my complete impetus to everything I take part in, and sometimes, your best isn’t enough for what you want and there is almost nothing you can do about it. This taught me that in order to be truly fulfilled, you need to accept failure as part of your life and learn to move on. Thinking about it, I would not be happier if I quit doing the things I love to study more so that I could be in the ‘top 10’. In fact, I would most definitely be more miserable. Learning to accept failure, I have decided to cultivate my energy into simply giving my all and to welcome whatever rank, or not, I receive with open

One thing that is unique about me that might not be apparent from my application is my undying will to tenaciously improve myself. In high school, I started playing football and I was literally the weakest and one of the worst players on my team. Instead of not believing in myself and quitting football, I tenaciously, toiled every day for three years until I improved my strengths and weaknesses as a player. Eventually those around me took notice of my massive improvement and I have since applied this unique aspect of myself into everything that I pursue. With the intent of becoming a Professional Engineer, I would like to transfer to Texas A&M University to pursue a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering. The purpose of my essay is to explain to you exactly why I want to transfer to Texas A&M and how joining Texas A&M would profit me.

Thomas Edison -- the inventor of the light bulb -- failed 1,000 times before perfecting his design. Why should we raise a young person, a student no less, to a higher standard than America’s greatest inventor? The nation pushes people forward, telling each individual that they are not allowed to be unsuccessful. This causes a multitude of people unnecessary stress; there is no longer a “good enough,” one could always do better. However, one shouldn’t be required to always do better; according to Zinsser, we need to “take a hundred side trips . . . Faltering, drawing back, and starting again” in order to find our purpose. “Failure” isn’t a dreadful word -- it is a valuable one that holds no venom in its

Welcome to North Eugene High School, the home of the highlanders. A great choice for your high school education.

After reading Part one of Change Anything, my initial thoughts on how I could use the science of personal success in my education are to better understand how I can succeed while in school at my highest potential. I understand and have a better knowledge of many influences that are undoubtedly working against me every day that try to ensure I possibly fail, if I allowed myself to. I also found the “willpower trap” to be extremely helpful. Rather than placing blame on or giving credit to my willpower, I should focus more on how I can stay motivated personally and change the many sources working against me. The 6 sources of influence are very beneficial to understanding why failure could occur and how to overcome failure. Also, I now have to

I came to SIATech to get my diploma. More specifically get a diploma so I can move onto college. And I’m glad I came to SIATech it taught me qualities I’ll need in the future to get to where I want to, most importantly it taught me commitment and responsibility. Getting up early in morning and having to take the bus and sprinter to go do some schoolwork I’ve already done or have some type of knowledge in just to finish something I was supposed to have done a year ago, definitely hit me with the realization how stupid it was not to take school seriously. Life is sort of like a race, though you’re only competing with yourself, it doesn’t mean you should go slower just because you can, you should work faster because you’re able to.

I have an diligent passion for assisting and supporting others of different cultures and heritages. I have volunteered on countless community and school events during the past two years. Currently, I contain more than 120 hours of community service and school service. In my school, New Tech High, we have a graduation requirement where the student must have completed 20 hours of community service and 10 hours of school service. I have exceeded my school hours by 50 hours and a half, while I overly exceeded my community hours by more than 71 hours. This has affected my outlook by providing me more opportunities as well as being noticed by the community. Currently,in my senior year, I have been helping coordinate event opportunities for the students

Morihei Ueshiba once said, “Failure is the key to success; each mistake teaches us something.” Throughout my life, I have experienced countless failures; nonetheless, the lessons that I learned from my failures prepared me for the numerous successes that I have had. My most significant failure was not making the All-City Honors band. My failure was due to me not taking a challenge and trying to find an easy way out of the situation. In the end, I learned to humble myself and to not be afraid to take on a challenge. My lesson helped shape my future decisions and successes.

Recently I had an experience looking for a car. The first dealership I decided to go to was Savage 61 Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram located in Reading, Pennsylvania. I had heard of this location on the radio that I frequently liked to listen. However, something drew my attention one afternoon. It was the prompting discount that said, “Come down to Savage 61 Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in located Reading and let them know that DJ Chamo King on Rumba 92.3FM sent you to get a discount on your future car purchase”. This constant reminder on the radio attracted me to the dealership. As the day came to go to the dealership I solicited the help of my boyfriend who was skilled in all things car.

Starting out my freshmen year I had no idea that I was going to end up where I am at today. When I first started college I had no idea what student affairs was or who to go to when I needed help. However as time progressed I engulfed myself on universities regulations and what needed to be done if I needed help. As time progressed and with each university I attended I saw how student affairs work. There were some individuals who do not deserve their positions. However I wonder how could I do something about that? Then when I finally arrived here at Tech I was introduced to a whole new concept. I could actually get a Masters in an area that affected me the most. I have had a rough college career however I did not let it stop me. I tried to figure out what I could do in order to help those who do not fully understand different cultures. I can see myself giving a voice to those who are afraid to speak up.

Throughout my childhood, I pushed myself to exceed standards and use my failures as motivation. My memories are filled with spending hours on end studying one subject so I can perfect my learning. As I sat in my black, broken swivel chair under my bunk bed with only an orange tinted light from my lamp, I repeated information to myself again and again until I could see the words on the page in my head. If I ever failed perfection, I failed because I pushed myself not because I did not try. My goals of excelling standards and achieving a bachelor's degree in engineering make me strive for excellence.

I am excited to have the opportunity to submit my qualifications for consideration for a position with Residential Life. I spoke to Larry Perse in November of 2015 about my interest in working as an RA and I believe that I would be very well suited for it. Not only am I responsible, friendly, and attentive, I have experience in many different aspects of student leadership.

Behind every successful story, there is a painful story. The 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 needed some clutch and bake repair in the late '80s. Unfortunately, the repair coincided with the death of his mother, and so the car ended up in the barn for the next 25 years. During an interview with Petrolicious, the current owner admitted that the initial owner of the Lamborghini was his grandmother’s cousin, who drove,
