Why I Want To Be In Upward Bound

My goals are like every other person; I go for the most outgoing ones that some people don’t even know about. One of my greatest goals is to be in a cooking competition and do my best in it even if I don’t win I want to leave everyone wanting more. Another of my goals is to be on the big screen in any sporting

One short-term goal that I have is to graduate from high school. I will need to do all of my work and do my best in all of my classes to accomplish that goal.

The reasons I want to be in Upward Bound. I have heard so many great things about this program and would like to experience it for myself. I would like to show off my academics. They are good but I think that Upward Bound can help me take it to the next level. Also, show my extracurricular activities and how this program will benefit me.

Now that my goals are listed out and articulated into a time frame it really helps to put things into perspective of what needs to happen now. For instance I am just starting out in bobcats against hunger as an executive board member. I hope this position will bring out some more leaderships skills within me that will help me later in life, like when I apply for graduate schools and in the real world working hopefully doing my dream job. That is just yet another example of something that will help gear my towards my end goal. If no one ever set goals where would we be today? It is an interesting question and one that makes me thankful that we all set goals daily and achieve them. For example if I did not set a goal to review for a test then come that test I probably wouldn’t pass which would not further me along my aspirations to finish college. So therefore I’m glad I set goals and that everyone else does no matter how big or small they all eventually lead to something

If you do not set goals or achievements for yourself then, you will not be successful in life. One major goal that I set for myself is to be elected at the ROTC program at Colts Neck High School. Unfortunately, it will not be an easy goals to achieve. It is going to a long bumpy ride until I reach my destination. However, if I study hard, complete all of my school assignments, and get antoshining grades then, I can find a shortcut to make this ride shorter and maybe even smoother after all. Also, participation is one of the main keys to achieving this goal. I make sure that I participate in class and in after school activities such as track and field and basketball because then my teachers and my coach could recommend me. This single goal persily will overall make me smarter and a hardworking student by the end of the year.

Goals are something that each individual should have, however, they can be short term or long term. My short term goal over the next year; I would like to

The career I would like to pursue would be Ultrasonography. Ultrasonography is a diagnostic medical procedure that uses high frequency sound waves to see images of a patients internal organs, tissues and blood flow. I first became interested in this field when I became pregnant with my first child. I thought that the ability to see images on the inside of a person's body was very intriguing. I've had many ultrasounds in my lifetime and my favorite were always the ones where I got to see the development of my baby. To be able to see a human being before it's even born is one of the most phenomenal things you could ever imagine. To be an sonographer would be a very rewarding career in so many ways. I would be able to help my patients who were hurt or injured, yet I would also be able to show expecting parents there

After taking AP Chemistry, I knew that I wanted to study chemistry in college. I also have been a very inquisitive person my whole life, wondering why things are and how things worked. My inquisitive nature and love of chemistry is why chemical engineering appeals to me. I am drawn to Biomedical engineering due to its application of both chemistry and biology to solve medical problems. Doing a complete 360, I am interested in art history, because not only do I find art fascinating, but I also find it mesmerizing how artists visually represent and were inspired by the world around them.

My goals are to give back into the community. I’m going to strive to make it better. I will focus on good health. I will finish my Degree and find a volunteer place or part- time position in my field. I want what I share to be an echo in their ears, “I can do anything as long as I try” help others to become an over comer, and an inspiration to as many that listen to my story.

-My short term goal is to continue to do well in my courses in order to graduate and be able to move onto graduate school.

I find science and engineering to be fascinating, specifically areas of biology such as marine biology and oceanography as well as environmental science. My interest in science was sparked by a project I did in Kindergarten on Blue Whales. When I was in second grade I had to research an animal and I chose a dolphin, which immediately became my favorite animal. I wanted to continue research on dolphins and whales outside of school. Unlike most kids that age, I would find time between dance and soccer practice, even before school to make powerpoints on dolphins. The following year, as a third grader I did a biography project on Dr. Sylvia A. Earle; a botanist, marine biologist, and oceanographer. I then researched Dr. Earle further for a project

My short-term (within 5 years) goal is to become Country-Head / CEO of Morningstar’s international business unit in Asia or Latin America, and build it into a profitable and sustainable organization. My long-term (within 10 years) goal is to become a CEO of Morningstar’s international business globally. Personally, I am passionate about teaching, acting, adventure sports and fitness. My personal goals are to run a marathon and to set-up a nonprofit organization in the field of education.

Upward Bound to me is not just a program; over the past four years it has become my family. The aid that my Upward Bound family has supplied me has helped more than I can express. I have succeeded in so many things academically, socially, and personally because of the resources Upward Bound has bestowed upon me. I will have sturdy platform entering into college because of help from my mentors because of this program.

My top career choice is a neurologist. I have chosen this career because not only is it financially rewarding, I can help people live a better life like I always dreamed of doing as a kid. I want to be the person to be recognized for saving lives. I know that this job would be a lot of hard work, but I think all my time would be worth it saving lives. The brain has always fascinated me since I was little, I was always eager to learn more, and discover more things. I realize that this would be a challenge, but it is a challenge I am up for!

     I have many goals in life such as to have a good strong career and family. What is important to me is graduating Central high school and go on to UND. While at UND I plan to get my nursing degree and specialize in pediatrics and truama. I have
