I was 10 years old. I looked from the edge of the mat, unaware about the endeavor I was about to take the moment my foot touched that mat. I finally decided to walk on, like they had taught me by bowing, it was the first of a near million times I was going to do this. I was a white belt, at the best taekwondo centers in the area. All the kids, stood to the side eerily silent, waiting for instructions.…
Bo Jackson said, “Set your goals high, and don’t stop until you get there.” (“Life hack Quotes”). My families always talk about my future and how it is essential to set your goals. For the majority of my life I’ve had an interest in childbirth and babies. I would always watch TV shows about childbirth, such as, A Baby Story and One Born Every Minute.…
As an eighteen year old it’s sometimes hard to think about your life time goals, especially when your life has only begun. But you can dream and strive to achieve the most drastic of lifetime goals. My lifetime goal is to become a successful forensic anthropologist maintaining my connection to music that I currently have. For the past seven years of my life I have been a part of an intense band program while maintaining an AB academic average and that experience, along with my academic experience of taking advanced courses all while staying in touch with the musical side of the world, is what’s going to help me achieve this lifetime goal. Being a part of a rigorous band program where success is all that we strive toward, all the while maintaining suitable grades in my advanced classes is what’s going to give me the foundation to start my life on.…

My graduate experience will be light years different then my undergraduate training. I chuckle just contemplating the technological difference alone. Back when I attended undergraduate school there wasn’t the internet, the LoudCloud, e-books, or personal laptop computers. We thought we were “hot stuff” because we progressed from the slide ruler to a state of the art Texas Interment graphing calculator. By the way google informed me that my particular calculator at that time was the first of its kind.…
I also love being involved in school and have participated in multiple groups such as: Running Club, WSCA Newspaper, Multicultural Group, and Leo Club.

I feel that if I am accepted into Simpson University I will be able to thrive not only educationally but also spiritually.

A dilemma that I faced, and still am facing is simply the decision about what I want to do with my life after my high school career. In my freshman year of high school my goal was simply to get through the year in one piece. I was forced to conform to my new environment and all the strict rules that came along with it. Along with that it was the sudden transition from being the "big dogs" as eighth graders at my middle school to being "fresh-meat" in my first year high school. With so much attention placed on me as a freshman like on the varsity basketball team, where I was constantly forced to prove my worth to the coach and the players, to stepping out of my comfort zone and performing in a mandatory play for the rest of the the school as…
Right now I’m very proud of myself, so far I’ve been taking the diet seriously and that each day I decide not to eat a pound cake. My soccer has been getting better and better each day I decide to be the best. I love the way I’ve been transitioning to high school, each and every day I’m getting better at school and life. My organization is superior to last years, not only that I’m taking everything serious now. I believe that this year will be a great time for me to try out for the high school soccer team because I believe and have faith I will make it.…

Before high school, I always thought I was an average student, but when I transitioned into high school, people started to point out that I had potential. I began to work harder than I had ever before and I began to accelerate in every course. This never took a toll on me till the tenth grade, when my mental health started degrading. Anxiety was my first foe. During the beginning of the tenth grade, I had set high expectations for myself and it began to affect my life greatly For instance, after finishing the test, I would think about just one specific question that I thought I completed wrong.…

An experience that has happened to me that will help me with my goals in school would be my time in the military. While I was in the military I learned that using time wisely, making smart choices and improved my reading and writing skills. Using time wisely is one of the most important things you can do. If you waste your time you can get so far behind that you fail. I have never been a failure and don’t plan to start anytime soon.…

There I was, finishing my junior year, I still had no idea what to do after my senior year, being honest I was a little scared because when people are young, they can easily say “I want to be a cop, Nurse, doctor...ext.” But when you get to your last years you wish they never end. I had so many things on my mind, so many ideas what I wanted to be, what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. A lifetime sounds like a lot, doesn’t it?…
