I feel as though I am a fairly understanding, friendly, and outgoing
person and I find it easy to communicate and interact with most people. I am
not afraid to approach new things or people and am driven towards personal
goals. I can be very high strung at times, but easygoing other times. This versatility allows me to get along with
many people. As I am getting older, I have realized that I am also becoming
more responsible and independent and am learning how to get things accomplished
on my own, although there is still much room for improvement. Words that might
describe me are: friendly, outgoing, practical, hardworking, and honest.
Overall,
maintaining a high GPA is one of my proudest accomplishments. I was never
pressured to receive good grades by my parents or family and liked the fact
that they gave me this freedom. From this I was able to self-motivate myself
and persevere through school for my own self-satisfaction. It would have been
easy to not take any challenging classes, but the fact that I chose to do so
has made me a stronger individual and most importantly; better prepared for
college.
Most meaningful
involvement/ activity…
I have played volleyball 7 years altogether and this
sport has played a big role in my life. Volleyball had taken up the majority of
my time besides being in school. Volleyball has taught me so much and has
shaped my personality and has tested my strength as a person. Volleyball is
also my way of getting away from any stresses in my life just because I enjoy
it so much and can put my whole mind into it and can forget about other things.
I have learned teamwork, responsibility, dedication, mental strength, and many
other things that I have been able to apply within my everyday life and will be
able to take with me in the future. Also, being with a team that share the same
amount of passion and dedication makes the experience more intense and our team
was able to push each other this past season to a place where we didn’t even
think possible. I don’t see how being involved in volleyball has effected me in
any sort of negative way at all. Volleyball, for me, is a true passion and has
taught me so much.
I have demonstrated leadership in many
various ways in and out of the classroom environment. First off, my most
significant leadership involvement was becoming Junior Class President. Through
this experience I was able to have an important role as a student and represent
my class and my school as well. As a class president, you become a member of
CORE Council and get a chance to become involved in many school
activities and discuss any issues within our school environment. Also, as
Junior Class President, I was the head coordinator of the Junior/ Senior Prom.
Planning prom was a long process, which required a variety of leadership skills
and organized teamwork. As a senior I am involved with the Mr. CV Fundraising
program as a member of the fundraising committee. The fundraising committee is
responsible for planning various fundraisers and activities throughout the year
to ultimately earn money for The Children's Miracle Network. In addition to
being involved with Mr. CV, I am also the student council representative for my
advisor group. This means I am a participant in Student
Council, but also responsible for sharing the information gained from
meetings to my advisor group. As a whole, I feel as though I have a
responsibility to try and inform our student body of upcoming events, current
school issues, and Mr. CV activities.
As of right now I am either attending the
