My Self
Having been born in Saudi Arabia, I have very close ties with my home culture, and to that end I wanted to work as much as I could at home, while also learning about English and the West. To that end, I chose to dedicate myself to a challenging field that would enable me to conduct a great deal of international business, such as chemical engineering.
I majored in English at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah City, graduating in 2008/2009 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemical Engineering; while my GPA was at 2.33, this was due to a ...

It was my fault, I thought. The first day that I had enlisted in the United States Navy coincided with America's declaration of war on Iraq. The incredible timing of the whole chain of events was such that I imagined only Providence could have been responsible. Looking back on this moment, I could not fathom what I had done, or what factors in the universe had led to this coincidence; I was young enough that I had no real idea of what life was really about. The only thing that I could recognize was that these events would teach ...

After much deliberation on my part, I have concluded the best place to continue my education is Lynn University. The combination of academic, social, and cultural environments stands out to me, and I am sure they prepare all Lynn University graduates for success. However, what stands out most is the diversity of the campus. As an international student who has learned the importance of an education both in and out of the classroom, the value of a multicultural campus where one is able to learn not only from faculty, but also from peers is very important to me.

Life is filled with vicissitudes which prompt people to respond and react accordingly. Some challenges are extremely unexpected requiring introspective skills to turn events towards one’s favor. I strongly believe that the ability of a person to surpass obstacles in life depend, not so much on the innate ability to be resourceful; but more so, on the unselfish desire to contribute to improving the welfare of others.

I can never forget the ...

Question 1

Coming to United States alone was my first real challenge, which started five years ago, when I was 13 years old. I adjusted rapidly to the new environment and I joined St Croix Lutheran High School. Residing in the dorm, I sought the opportunity of better knowing my colleagues and other students my age and I started working as resident assistant in the dorm, which besides enhancing my networking abilities with my peers, also allowed me to become familiar with the administrative responsibilities that my position implied.
Because I am a dynamic person and constantly searching for new challenges, ...

Human trafficking is a social issue that threatens the safety of children and adults alike, exploited for attaining the interests of organized crime groups.

Hence, human trafficking severely abuses human rights and social workers fight for reinstating them. Human trafficking is an increasing concern ...

The real estate industry faced severe challenges in 2008 with the financial crisis in America. Many people lost their homes being unable to pay the mortgage payments.

Available Resources for the Homeless and Career Goals

In America many are not aware that there is still a problem with the homeless who are disoriented and disconnected from family and loved ones.

The following will discuss the latter as well as my career goals which are tied into strategy to assist them further.

My familiarity with the field of engineering came from my experience during my internship at Boeing.

Childhood fascination with notebooks turned me into their collector. Notebooks, with reams of pale unexplored paper bound together by two hard covers, represent a boundless heap of possibilities. I would flick through the blank pages, my fingers slivering along their crisp edges, as I sprawl over the carpet of my bedroom. I start to imagine all the doodles and secrets I would soon scrawl onto its bare surfaces. I adore the latitude notebooks afford and spent many hours with unfettered imagination to be ingenious and creative. These notebooks excite me the same way a blank canvas provokes an artist to create a ...

Question One

“The world is not a friendly place”. I guess the first time I heard of the world’s harsh nature was when my mother told me not to talk to strangers because many children were abducted that way. My friends told me stories of nights they had been followed home by odd looking people although I figured that most of these stories were exaggerated all the same. I did not believe that the world was such an evil place, but I was an obedient child. One day, while walking home from school, my friends and I were stopped ...

Question One

It is really hard to select one outstanding attribute about oneself to speak about but when I look at most of the things I have done in my life one trait appears to cut across all my actions; pragmatism. I am logical to a fault, approaching all problems in a sensible, practical manner. In a sense this may be interpreted to mean that I am not an overly optimistic person. Far from it, I believe a little good luck goes a long way in helping us achieve our goals. Although I only realized it when I was older, my pragmatic nature had become evident ...

Dear (Put entity or specific recipient here),

As any mother would attest, the most dramatic event of my life was the birth of my daughter. Through my daughter’s new life I saw the world of children, and realized that not all newborns were born into stable situations. My love for my daughter was extended to all children. I wanted the same opportunities and stability I wanted for her for everyone.

While these experiences played a major role in developing my knowledge base, especially in medical administration, I longed to attain a role where ...

Each aspect of life and its application is acquired via a form of education. A newborn infant cries out for its mother, learns her responses to instinctive demands, and thus quickly gains the knowledge of needs versus solutions. In this way, the process of education is applied from a very early stage and instilled in every life.
The diversity of language and its functional and often poetic usage define the varied world cultures. Each one is complex in its structure of alphabet and phonetics, differentiated by country or region. All language stems from the ability to learn, an education of ...

Throughout life I have always set goals and worked hard to accomplish them. Some were easy – others were not. The easy goals accomplished were earning the number one academic rank from middle school through senior high school, winning the U18 National Saxophone Championship in 2005, and attending college in the states. However, after being admitted into college, I was lost with the new found freedom of being away from parents. And this was the beginning of experiencing challenging goals.
During the summer of 2010, I realized that I was not doing anything with my life since returning home ...

An issue that I hold very close to my heart is the suffering known as Alzheimer’s. I call it a suffering instead of a disease as I have seen the pain that it inflicts on the patient as well as family members and friends. Disease seems to be an understatement. I have been associated with Alzheimer’s at a personal level and would like to take this opportunity to share my experience and the impact it has had on my life.

I had heard about Alzheimer’s early on in life through various awareness campaigns and other mediums. However, although I ...

“Your eyes are bigger than your stomach,” my mom always told me. I grew up having an extremely unhealthy relationship with food. I always overate. Whenever I was placed in a buffet setting, I became a binge eater. I would gorge as much as I physically could and then inevitably sprint to the bathroom to release the unfortunate remains of my meal. I thought this was normal. I thought regular “pizza days” and eating a whole bag of chips while reading your favorite book were also something of the norm. I thought nothing about healthy or organic food, and I hated my ...

My family history, culture, and environment have all been intertwined and are the main forces that have influenced who I am today.

Professedly, business has risen to become one of the most fundamental aspects of life today compared to any other discipline.

My greatest wish has been to be part of UCLA and later become a nurse. Nursing falls in line with my intellectual interests and I have always been fascinated by the human body and all its intricacies, how it functions, what happens when it malfunctions, and what is done to restore its health. I majored in neuroscience because it contributes to my understanding of the human body and feeds my interest (Huber 21). This interest also extends outside school. On a monthly basis I read through the American Journal of Nursing, American Journal of Critical Care, and Critical Care Nursing. I ...
