I am applying to the Geography undergraduate program because of my recent interest in human-land relationships. My main goal for applying to this department is to pursue a career in cartography. My dad and I go to this motorcycle museum in the hill-country where all walks of life go in the late winter/ early spring months because of the American food and the Aussie owner.

In order to dothat, I need to know what needs to be done, and when it needs to be done by WAY before it needs to be done so that I may plan accordingly. It takes these small steps to make ensure that (almost) everything runs as smooth as I am able to make it. That being said, I do, unfortunately, fall short sometimes despite my efforts and a new lesson is learned. But at least I can say that I give my all and I can live with
