Personal Statement: Who Am I?

I was born on December, 27, 2003 in Dubuque, Iowa. When I was born, I had no brothers or sisters. I only had my mom and dad (My Mom’s name is Amy, and my dad’s name is Tim). My interests when I was younger was sports, because my uncles always played sports and for their baseball teams I was the bat boy. I went to Key West for my daycare and preschool. My first time ever walking was when I was about nine months old. My first word was ball because I was always at the baseball field watching my uncles.

I’m Catherine, a French Canadian living in Montreal, and I have always been a jean’s, t-shirt, sweatshirt type of girl.

I have loved animals as long as I can remember, and have worked hard to understand and learn everything I can about them. My mother bought me a horse when I was ten, I had her for five years before we sold her and moved, I have worked and ridden at two different horse barns over the last five years so I know how to work hard. In 2014 I raised and slaughtered 200 meat chickens, in 2015 I did 100 more. I currently own a jersey milk cow, four lamacha milk goats, and a couple of meat rabbits.

I am a senior attending world of inquiry high school I am a hardworking student I do get distracted sometimes and nobody in my family would have think i would be here where i am today because I was born so early I was premature and I had a lot of issues when I was young because how small I was and I heard a lot from my family and I was worried that since I was born early it affected me in school and the skills that I have learn is that to never give up and at least try and if I still can't do something I can ask a teacher or someone for help if needed and always think positive i also learned that keeping positive people around me and have people encourage me to do better and have a connection with an adult so I can have someone to talk to

In regards to writing an essay for college applications, I can honestly say that I do not have anything too significant to write about. I do not have any big experiences that have shaped me to be who I am today, I do not have a life-shaken, tragic past, and nothing has ever traumatized me or incredibly inspire me to pursue utter happiness. Nothing calamitous has occurred, nor has anything prodigious. My accomplishments are inconsequential, and my setbacks are not worth mentioning. However, I do not see this as an unfortunate matter. Why should I have to go through inner turmoil or challenging circumstances to have a certain outlook on life? My own mindset has shaped me to become who I am today, regardless of what I have and have not been through.

At work, I belong to the coffee club and the water club. I do not even like water or coffee I just wanted to belong. At home, my cupboards are filled with many cups. Cups I bought at Disneyland, Universal Studios, museums, and from some musicals, I have attended. I buy every cup I like at Starbucks, and when my family sees a cup, they purchase it for me. I give my family cups, and my favorite friends cups. Even though I have many cups, I drink from a Styrofoam cup, because I do not want to wash my cup. I want to fill my cups but I am not willing to wash them after I use them. This is just like my life I have many hats and many jobs, but where do I truly belong? Where I am at peace, and where do I best sever the Lord? I surround myself

For me its difficult for a certain agent that is on my team. Lets call him Juan. I first met him in the TWC training class. He seemed arrogant and a know it all in class. He made it seem like any female was beneath him but yet I still tried to be the nice person and get a long with everyone in the class because I was trying to go into management. I still tended to give him the cold shoulder even though he would try to flirt or maybe his attempt to be nice he would always bring me jumbo pixie stix because I had an odd obsession with them.

My grandfather used to say, "Always thinking of your country before anything else; people come and go but the country stays." I understood what he meant, even as a child. He did not mean that people are unimportant; far from it. What he meant was that the people are only as strong as their country, culture, and nation. Contributing to the culture, as an aggregate of collective artifacts such as ceremonies, art, and music, has greater value than anything else I can. Thinking of my country first impacts all Kuwaiti people and not just those that I meet or work with.

Once I’d made my list it took me a while to become willing. Just as doing anything about my drinking or my character defects, my willingness to make proper amends only came when I was hurting, when I was disturbed enough to become willing to do something about it. That my drinking, character defects and harms done affected other people was no prompt to get me into action. I became motivated not because an amend was due but because I was hurting. Am I selfish, self-seeking and self-centred? Yes you betcha.

My biggest strength is that I trust people so much and I do not afraid of being cheated. I am open to communication and I hold no biases towards any culture, race or sex, because I believe that all people are equal and must have equal opportunities to succeed. I am definitely a team player, because the best experience I had until now is the time, when our soccer team got the second place in a high school championship when everyone thought we were not qualified to play in this championship. That same experience helped me realize that hard work always pays off, since we spent almost 4 months straight to get prepared for the championship, we all believed in each other as a teammate. However, I believe that too much trust could be my weakness at the same time, because not all people deserve to be trusted that much. Furthermore, I suspect that sometimes I may rely too much on collective efforts pursuing the common goal. That could be my next weakness, because I am attuned too much to work in team, which could have detrimental results if I would have no other variant but to complete some assignments on my own. I have to develop a clear vision of my own future in order to come up with both short- and long-term objectives, which could serve me as a motivational impetus in future. The biggest threat to my progress could be only some upsetting circumstances and/or instances, like the loss of a friend or deterioration of relations with my family for instance, which could

I am currently a sophomore attending Northwest Vista College and will be receiving my associate’s degree in applied science. My journey to obtain my associates has not been easy. Nevertheless, I am accomplishing my goal and over the moon to be doing so. I did not plan to get my associates, I had originally planned just to bypass it completely and move on to get a bachelor in biology, however my health had other plans in mind. My health complications forced me to change my perspective on my life and to reconstruct how I prioritized everything in my life.

Who is Kyle Rudzinski? This question is one that is very complex to answer, and in order to answer it, I must delve into my past, as well as look into my future aspirations. My life hasn’t consisted of numerous significant events that have shaped my life, but rather countless choices over the years that I have made to get me to where I am, and who I am today. After reading My Freshman Year, and viewing the film, Neuland, the outlook that I have of myself and on my life has drastically changed. My Freshman Year revealed to me how much my life has changed since I came to college, and all the choices that I have subconsciously made that have greatly impacted my life, even if I don’t often realize it. Neuland has helped me become more appreciative of the life that I’ve had, as well as allow me to grasp some of the traumatic issues that others have to go through, which further, makes me want to find ways to help those people through their issues in the future. These two media have impacted my interpretations of the world and of myself, but at the same time, haven’t completely changed who I am. So, who exactly am I?

I entered my home after I dropped off my sons at camp and tossed my shoes off my feet, next to the dryer. This house was completely silent and I was left alone with my thoughts that nobody else could figure out but me. I went into my office and sat down in my chair, I came in here whenever I truly needed to think and today was one of those days. I needed to think and sort things out in my own head as to what was going on in my life and how I could take steps to move forward.

I just sit here and assault my brain by staring at a television screen all day trying to break into a virtual high security bank with my virtual weaponry and my virtual team of get-away drivers, security system hackers, and military level recon units. Doritos and Mountain Dew litter the area around me, and as a loading screen appears on the screen I scramble to shovel as much of those corn chips into my mouth before the next death match starts. My neck beard is grown to its fullest, and it smells like I have not even seen a shower in a month. I am a gamer. Many people will take one look at me and assume my life is a waste. To me, I am living the best I can. I have things that I enjoy doing, and even if it seen as wrong, I will not be afraid to continue perusing what makes me happy.

One day, I asked myself a question: Who I am and how I become who I am? I take art classes, instrument class, basketball class afterschool even though I have never liked them; I skip class in the university to go shopping with my roommate; I am on a strict diet through the whole semester to lose 30 pounds; I study hard to become one of the top students; I stay humble and helpful both inside and outside of the classroom; I join student council and many student clubs at college; I am punctual at work. To be honest, I don’t enjoy every single thing I do, however, I do it anyway to please my peers, gain their acceptance, and maintain my popularity. After so many years, these things have become part of me and shaped who I am at some point. We as human beings live in the society through interactions with peers, and peer pressure has a great impact on us, negatively or positively.
