Personal Statement -- Oct.
My life story thus far has not been the kind of existence most people my age have had to experience. From a very young age, I had to be the man of the family, supportive to those around me and a rock that others could rest their emotions on. When I was little, everyone who knew my father would remark how much I reminded them of him, particularly because of the blue eyes that I inherited from him. When I was eight years old, my father passed away and often it would hurt the people around me to look into my eyes. They would too often see him reflected on my face. So not only was I put into a difficult position by having lost my father, in a way I had to make up for his absence.
This taught me to be strong and to accept the position of leadership that was more or less thrust upon me. I remember one winter where my mother was out of work. My mother told us that Santa Claus...
The oldest of my siblings, I felt I had to do something. By this time, I knew the truth about Santa Claus but did not want our lack of finances disenchant my brothers and sisters. So, I took my life savings, which at the age of ten was only about $25 and went to the local Dollar Store. There I spent all my savings on various toys and candies for my siblings and my mother as well. I remember the look on her face that Christmas morning when the corner of our house with its little artificial tree was overburdened with packages. That moment lives on in my memory. I learned then that generosity was its own reward.
Then when I was twelve years old, I became seriously and mysteriously ill. After what felt like years of testing, it was discovered that I had a very rare form of cancer. It is a difficult life having to be in and out of hospitals all the time. The lights are always on somewhere so you are never in total darkness. At the same time, it is not nearly as comforting as sitting in the pitch black…
Personal Statement During my 4-year period as a college student, I studied Marketing and in my second year, I decided to discontinue the course in favor of Information Systems. The information industry is becoming more prominent in the running of most businesses and corporations and is becoming the source of solutions to most information management issues. In this regard, a personal computer is necessary for business as well as domestic usage
On this front, I was instrumental in the identification of an existing opportunity for the company to further enhance its revenues through the sale of Bath Products. Today, thanks to my efforts and those of my colleagues, our company is regarded a model for all other distributors of bath products. Like it has been the case with my previous accomplishments, this particular event also presented me with a valuable
Personal Statement While any profession in the field of healing is doubtlessly a noble and worthy one, there are few of these that offer the combination of technical expertise and human interaction that dentistry does. Although dentists are often professionals that are the subject of comedy in terms of being secondary to "real doctors," I believe that this profession does not nearly receive all the credit that it deserves. Few people
Personal Statement L. Jones Real estate is an exciting, complex, and demanding field of study. Although many work in real estate, to undertake its study as a discipline requires a real love for the industry. That, I have in spades. However, like anyone who truly enjoys a particular area of study, my previous experience in the industry has only fueled my desire to learn more. It is through my admittance and completion
Personal Statement: Why I want to study law Ever since I was a young child, I have always wanted to study the law. Documents that have protected people's rights throughout the ages such as the United States Constitution and the Magna Carta seemed to me as sacred as the Bible. I always had an innate sense of justice and 'fairness.' I enjoy arguing and have never had any problems standing up
