I have accomplished lots of things in my lifetime. I have accomplished getting a job and getting my license to go to that job. I have accomplished working two jobs one is being a machinist and a referee.
When I was in the third grade and began to take an interest in musicals, my two best friends and I decided we would perform “Popular” from Wicked in our school’s talent show. I was looking forward to having fun with my friends onstage, but secretly I was wondering what I had gotten myself into. I had so many doubts about going onstage in front of my entire school. What if they thought I sang badly? Why didn’t we use backup music? Pink is definitely not my color. It was my first time singing by myself with a large audience watching me, but nonetheless, the three of us went onstage. Regardless of what others may have thought about us, we all felt exhilarated and relieved once we were done.
The career I want to PURSUE in the future is the “MILITARY”. I really had to sit and think if that’s what I really want to do. Getting money is a BEAUTIFUL thing not just to me for everybody. Going to the Military is my way of doing something
I never stop thinking about being a film director. All these elements have given me a very broad outlook, with varying degrees of knowledge in a range of topics. I strongly believe that although some are not related directly, all these qualities will influence my graduate work.
From an early age, I loved to perform. Being the youngest girl with three older brothers, I could never get enough attention; This meant singing, dancing and being extremely outgoing to get everyone’s eyes on me. I still hear stories about my younger self dancing in front of mirrors, babbling about my dream of being a “star”. It wasn’t until much later, however, that I found I could put my love of performing to use.
For my education I would like to become a vet which means I have to get a PHD in vet school. To help me get started next year I will Medical in 8th grade and also take it in high school. If I take Medical next year and find out it is not for me I will try to become a teacher and follow the line of teachers in my family. My grandma, on my mom’s side, is a high school teacher and as you know my mom is the AP at Shivela Middle School, or I will follow my dream in acting as you may know I am in Theatre, and I love it I have been in plays all throughout elementary elementary school I was the main character in my 1st grade christmas play, I was also little miss muffet in my kindergarten play, also I has the sign holder in my after school program play that would introduce each scene like “Twas the Night before Christmas.” Some of my career goals are to be an intern at a local shelter and graduate high school ready to go right into college and know what it would be for like teaching or vet
Over the course of my life, I have had many opportunities to overcome and learn from various obstacles. I have learned how to not only identify problems, but encounter the solutions. This greatly benefited me during my time serving as a zone leader in the Cuernavaca Mexico mission. Because of this experience, I am confident speaking in public and teaching large groups of my peers. I am organized and have a grand testimony of the power of planning daily and weekly. Before my time in the mission, I dedicated much to the arts of singing and acting. I have worked hard to develop a talent, and through that talent, I have had the privelege of performing in eleven stage shows, musicals, and benefit concerts, as well as traveling with a jazz acapella
As I sat enveloped in her story of overcoming conclusions, she taught my heart to embrace each quirky part of myself. I identified with Elle Woods’ need to prove herself. This idea of accepting individuality provided me with the courage to audition for my first show, the Arvada Center’s production of Footloose. Since that first nerve-racking, nail-biting experience, I have come to find myself through each move I dance onstage. Getting my first big role, the Dragon in a production of Shrek, I poured my heart out, knowing the people ready to judge and mock were watching. After the show, the peers who judged my intelligence approached me, saying things like, “I never knew you could sing like that.” Through performing I found myself again. I shifted back to the girl I was, the girl who cared about her morals. I want to perform, hoping to provide audience members with the ability to connect with characters who can offer them a point of realization, as Elle Woods did for me.
At the age of four I was absolutely positive that in the future my career was to be the real world Kim Possible. Yet, the next year something in me clicked; my mind had been set on becoming a singer, and ever since that moment twelve years ago it has been my path. I had convinced myself that I would stand on a stage, and every time I opened my mouth the notes would just flow out; gliding gracefully through the air, dancing to the music among one another, descending upon the audience in powerful crescendos. However, as I aged, my confidence in this vision would begin to sway.
In my younger years I was highly involved in show choir and school productions. Any way I could get on stage and strut my stuff I would take it. My sixth grade year of elementary school, the year before I would make the massive leap into middle school, I decided I would perform in my final production. The play was Aladdin and I had my eye on the role for the Genie and I wanted this role so much. I practiced this role day and night from singing to dancing to even some impressions anything that would ensure my little mind that I would get the part.
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs When I think of my future career goals, I picture myself being happy, successful, and most importantly, doing what I love.
My life unconventionally shaped my aspirations, while I want to major in business because I know I can excel, I also intend on keeping community service a major part of my life and helping people through the things I’ve dealt with. I enjoy studying philosophy as well as psychology/ human behavior because it helps me understand the people and world around me which is all I really want in
Since I struggled in school and cannot play many sports due to my Rheumatoid Arthritis, I found art to be the perfect outlet for me. I chose to pick a major from the CSULB College of the Arts because I knew I wanted to get a degree where I would be able to create art and explore other artistic talents. I decided to major in film because I find films magical, every time I watch a movie, music video or short film I escape reality and enter a fantasy. Films inspire me to write new lyrics, new scripts, and to make a change. Growing up I wanted to be an actress in films and film has given me the opportunity to act in films and work behind the camera. I have enjoyed every film class especially FEA 299 Media Aesthetics. I did not have much knowledge
I chose to major in Cinematography and Film/Video Production because of this love and admiration that I grew for films. Beyond just Star Wars, this love grew for films as I began to watch a multitude of films
My entire life I have been fascinated with film and commercials. As a kid, I would stop what I was doing to watch a commercial. This has not changed through the years. My goal in life is to work in the film industry and work with video. This may have developed from my brother’s short term love for the video arts. Like most little brothers I followed in his footsteps through a lot of things and most of them would not stick. As I grew older I developed my own different ideals and likes. But, video just stuck with me. Even if film production doesn’t work out I have always had a childlike excitement for fighting fires. Being the person to save the day is something that everybody wants to do, but not everyone peruses this dangerous career.
