Sample Reflection Paper For College

It was a great pleasure to talk with you today to discuss about the opportunity for International TV Research Internship at 20th Century FOX. Thank you for talking to me about your department and its role in one of the largest leading organization in the Film & Media, Entertainment industry. The information you shared confirmed my own research describing 20th Century FOX as a dynamic organization that emphasizes teamwork and dynamic interaction with the international partners as my references will attest, this emphasis is compatible with my work style and strengths.

Time management and organization – Time management was critical this summer when juggling so many tasks at one time to ensure they all got accomplished by the specified due dates. One example of this was arranging my schedule so the videos got completed on time while still maintaining my high level of care for other assigned tasks.

In particular, I want to thank you for the time you have spent helping me navigate the organization and develop my skills. I always appreciate you are there to provide support anytime it’s

Everyone has someone they look up to. People come and go, but the impact they leave behind lasts forever. If you asked 10 people what type of person I am, I promise, you will get 10 different answers. I am proud of the man that I am today, but there was a point where I was very lost. I was a loose cannon and had no sense of direction; taking every day as a joke. It was then, when I was 13, a 6’5 335 man, Mr. Corey Swinson, grabbed me and told me I can be anything I wanted. He said I wasn’t like the rest. All I needed was some motivation to get to where I wanted to be. You can only imagine what went on in my head when his large hands were around the back of my neck. He said I wasn’t just another kid in school that wouldn’t amount to much, I was something so much greater. At that moment, I took the first step and enrolled in a private high school, but I still didn’t grasp the full meaning of what he meant. I continued to run around like somebody owed me something. Like I was entitled to things that I had no business being entitled to. On September 10, 2013, everything changed. My mentor passed and the pain was indescribable. The very first person that actually saw potential in me was gone, and I couldn’t do anything about it. But deep down I know what he expected of me. From then on, I started to read more. I started to become inspired. I started to work to perfect my craft. I started to be a dreamer. For many months, I didn’t know what he meant. It only clicked when he was

Since the beginning of the semester, my writing has changed and evolved to accommodate and sustain longer essays. With longer essays, there is more room for in-depth analysis. Further analyzing a topic has led me to findings that I did not know existed. As I continue to write, I uncover addition and superior methods to approach my writing to the benefit of me and therefore, my audience. Throughout the semester, I have incorporated techniques to further my narrative throughout my writing.

Moving into a country of unfamiliar traditions and eccentric society, I faced a lot of challenges. However, it was these challenges that provided me with the determination and dedication to work hard and strive for success. I was born into an athletic and educated family in Ecuador, and day after day I gave my best to achieve my gymnastics and educational goals. Falls, injuries, and tears were rewarded with reputation, pride and gold. Those medals and awards had more emotional value than material, and they came to symbolize all my effort.

Winter of my junior year, I experienced a change in my life that has affected every single thing that I do: I became a minimalist. The term “minimalist” sounds stark and forboding, but it really means that I live my life intentionally by only taking in things and doing activities that are necessary and add value. Over Christmas break of 2016, I completely purged my room of excess material items and hauled eight garbage bags full of donations to Goodwill. With a clear space and clear mind, I was able for the first time to really consider what I filled my time with and what my values were. This transformation helped me grow into the happy and successful student I am today, and I believe that a minimalist mindset will allow me to leave a positive impact on any campus.

My family and I immigrated to the U.S. six years ago when I was fifteen. The differences in culture made it difficult for us to adapt to the new environment. During the first few weeks of high school, I felt frustrated as my inadequate English skills hindered communication with my teachers and peers. However, my parents were the ones who suffered the most. The language barrier made it difficult for them to find jobs and get through their daily tasks. Once, my dad and I went to a pharmacy to pick up his medications. He struggled to communicate with the pharmacist and received judgmental stares from other patients for his broken English. For the first time in my life, I saw the helplessness in my dad’s eyes. That was when I first became interested in becoming a pharmacist who could help patients like my dad, communicating in a language that they could understand. I set out to achieve my dream.

I was reading a book one day and I read the statement “If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself” (The Lightning Thief, 2005). I knew I had to change to become a better version of myself. Times got better in high school. I learned that I deserved to be happy and loved. I realized that everyone is different and that is what makes us awesome. I learned to love myself despite my flaws. Sometimes, even now I have relapses and I know now what to do and how to get through them.

It felt as if each step I took was going to be my last at any second. It has been sixteen hours of just plain hunger, thirst, and exhaustion which worried me very much. I was walking for hours just to get to the “other side” while being 3 months pregnant. My over thinking became extreme but my main concern was if it was really worth my babies life incase something wrong happened? Who would have thought anyone could physically and mentally survive this kind of thing let alone a pregnant one, luckily here I am about to tell you the living nightmare I went through. I would not wish this experience on anyone walking on this earth, this journey was something I will never forget.

Growing up I was always taught that everyone was created equal, although my parents are not religious they always believed that we all came from somewhere and that we were all equals on this earth. I grew up in a small town so there was no diversity really. No one was ever treated too different based on what they looked like or what gender they were. We were just a small community of rednecks all just trying to live our lives.

English 101 was enlightening. It gave me a greater understanding about the writing portion in english as a whole. I am very glad that I choose to talk about dogs as my semester topic. I never became overwhelmed or annoyed with having to write a paper about dogs, one of

This semester was excellent! Recently I found myself taking English 1301 for the first time. At first, I felt overpowered, the assignments assort in topics and at times, I felt unknowing of the subjects. Often papers ranged from primitive to intricate. Before long we started off with a simple essay, then progressed from there. Luckily, power points were provided throughout the course.

If I had to lead a rally I would choose to have it at Central Park in New York City. This is the perfect place to hold a rally because of the open green grassy space. New York City also has a very diverse community. There would be people of all races and cultures at the rally. It would have a bunch of colorful signs, balloons, and bubbles. The bright and lively rally would help set the mood and vibe for the rally. The main goal is to peacefully end discrimination and to live in unity with different cultures. Discrimination is still a very persistent issue in America. It can be blunt and open or sometimes built into a system. For example, racial profiling by law enforcement officers or unemployment for minorities. Discrimination doesn’t have to stem from race either it can be discrimination against gender, immigrants, sexual orientation, and religion. This rally would be a part of a larger movement that goes all the way back to the fight for civil rights. This movement would share similar attributes of the ones of Martin Luther King Jr. It would be a non-violent rally that focuses on peace and gives hope to people subject to discrimination. In relation to my life racial discrimination is a big part of it. I would fight for the racial discrimination because I am part black and suffer judgement and prejudice for being a person of color. I have never endured an unlawful interaction with the police but my father has.

I have had hardships and there are events that have shaped me into being who I am today. My parents went through a very difficult time from 2003-2010 and during that time I was forced to care for and shape my younger brother into a decent, gentlemanly individual, this was difficult not only because I was so young (three years old to ten) but because my younger brother has terrets. My parents were always trying their best to coping with a tragic loss to really give my brother and I the time and attention craved for. I of course completely understand now why they struggled so much but I am disappointed that I was never really allowed to be a child, my life so far has just been about taking care of my younger brother, making sure that he has
