Senior Reflection: Sam Houston High School

Last year, if you were to question where I saw myself in the next few years, my answer wouldn’t have been applying to college. During that time, I had a successful career as a store manager, and for the most part, that was all I could ever see myself doing. I excelled as a store manager, and I enjoyed the frequent interactions with the various diverse individuals that I got to experience. However, I was never elated nor passionate about that career choice. In fact, I can distinctively remember the moments where I would arrive home from work in the late hours of the night, pondering if this was all there was for me.

Getting the ability to interview one of my past teachers was an awesome experience. I had the luxury of talking to one of my former high school teachers and Student Council advisor Tessa Gargano. We have a great reputation together and basically know each other like the backs of our hands.

Sophomore year I was told to go to a community college for a two-year degree. By my application to Ohio University, I picked the road that everyone thought I was not capable of. Although my transcripts are not perfect, especially my GPA and ACT score the reasons are complicated. The Tuesday of my ACT week I got into a survive car accident which left me with a brain swelling concussion. I had never taken the ACT and did not want to have October be my one and only time. Therefore I took the test anyway, which led to a horrible scoring rate. Although it was not my best overall I think that for having a concussion my writing was well done. Unfortunately my car accident injuries lasted for five months, leaving me busy and injured. I again took the

I plan to graduate in May 2017 with honors. My goal after graduation is to find a job working at a graphic design firm and also freelance in hopes of opening my own small business one day. My philosophy is in order to have more I must to do more; therefore I have to take advantage of every opportunity. When doing more than what is expected I believe I will eventually be rewarded. I am very determined that in ten years from now I will have a successful business. I am a self-motivated individual with the ability to adapt quickly. I make no excuses and complete every task to my best

My senior year is the grand conclusion to four amazing years of my high school life. My plans are to attend an in-state university to pursue a degree in Computer Engineering and Informational Technologies. Technology has always been an interest of mine ever since I can remember--as a kid I would tear apart computers just to see how they worked. That spark of interest inspired my love for technology and made me want to pursue it as a career.

After high school, I plan to pursue an undergraduate degree in Engineering and then, a master’s degree in Business Administration at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Being on the Junior Board of Directors

I will be graduating in May 2016 with a BBA in Finance and Risk Management with several years of work experience, of which includes five and half years at a Chick-Fil-A, one year at a consulting firm, and one year as an analyst at USAA. In addition, I am involved in various campus organizations; more specifically, I am officer in the St. Mary’s Society of Honors Scholars,

Throughout my life I was always told that I could accomplish anything I put my mind to. So I decided to attend Houston Community College to begin my journey. I am majoring in business administration. After two years I will transfer my credits to Jackson State University where I will continue my studies and minor in fashion merchandising. The career choice I want to pursue in is marketing manager in the fashion industry and eventually start my own business. The annually starting salary for a marketing manager can range between $80,000 to $117,000 depending on the location. My standard of living would be about a two-bedroom condo in the city, receiving benefits, and the hourly wage of $39-$53. Living in Houston is a bit pricey on expenses alone is approximately $798.48 monthly for one person. The cost of living in Houston is estimated to be 7% less than the cost of living in New York City. It is estimated that the cost of living in Atlanta was only 3.32% higher than living in Houston. The cost of living in Toronto is not much higher than living in Houston it’s only a 7% difference. I believe that Houston is a great price for living and networking

In Life there are roads and there are choices. The right or left turn you make along the winding path throughout your life is and should be the one that makes you happy. Furthering your education may be your best and only way to make that right decision. At the present moment I am now currently attending Valencia Community College working towards my Associate Degree in Computer Science. My current major is Computer Science, although Computer Engineering with a focus in Software is what I will most likely pursue as my Bachelor of Arts (BA). Computer Science/Engineering is one of the most popular and fastest growing careers today. Today, computers are used in almost every aspect of our lives: in car

Hello, my friend. How are you? It has been a while since I get no call, no messages from you. Hope you’re doing well. Since last couple of weeks I think of writing a letter, but time here is fast and my schedules are always busy. Since school work is all I really do in my spare time. Can you believe it has already been ten months since I left India? I miss it over there, but my intension for moving to the United States was to finish my masters and be in the best university and get a nice job in our country. I am living in Houston, Texas, and taking my pre – requested classes at Houston Community College (HCC). As follow my carrier, I have many opportunities here in Houston as this is developing City. The experience here studying is nothing like I would get in our native country. It was so surprising on the very first day of my collage when I saw different age group students are in the same class. Education system in the United States is not the same as the education system in our country. I would like to describe how HCC focuses on our dreams with different curriculums, they follows strict organized calendar, they use different technologies, and about classroom environment.

Everyone has had a different journey of getting to college. Now that I have gotten to college I want to reflect on my journey from Southeast High School to the University of Central Florida (UCF). I will be talking about my past experiences as a high school student and I want to talk about some challenges I experienced so far. Also, I want to tell you about how college has been so far. I would also like to tell you how my professors would describe me. In all, I will have talked about what went well in high school, some challenges, my college experiences and also how my professors would describe me, this will have shown you my college journey so far.

My senior reflection on Sam Houston High School. After high school, I plan to go to college and I plan to major in nursing. My band directors was my star educator. They help me to pass all my class and get a good grade. When I'm was in Thailand, my rank was always the last one or the second to the last one. Now my rank was 26, that why they are my star educator because they there to support me when I have low grade and help me to keep my grade up. If they don’t help me I will not be in the rank 26. I thank you my family for help me not to fall apart and to get through school. They help me to focus on my education. They don’t let me get a job while I still go to school because if I got a job I will not do my study and I might be working late

My intention is to continue to increase my education at Missouri State University with the professors, area, and school I know in order to hopefully make myself not only more marketable but a better professional in the criminology and humanities career field

Going through middle school my comprehension has not always been so great. Moving out of the small town of Gainesville, Florida I figured it was time for a fresh start. Attending West Orange High School in Winter Garden, Florida I knew passing the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) was a requirement for graduation. My first two years of high schools I’ve had bad experiences with my teacher Mrs. Marquez not because they didn’t care but the fact that they stereotype all reading classes of having horrible behavior. Not even taking the time to explain to us how to comprehend. I had only two years to pass FCAT because after sophomore year they didn’t give the test junior nor senior year, and not passing would get you automatically put

Around the end of my sophomore year, I see myself narrowing down a career choice. After taking many different courses during previous years here at Bryant, I see that I finally figure out my purpose and I am confident with my specific decision. As this realization hits, I see myself getting into and working hard in graduate school in order to further my studies before entering the work force.
