“College Essay”



Im Dashionn Graham.I am a auto mechanic technician that attends Camden County Technical Schools of Gloucester Township New Jersey.
I have three years experience in the automotive field, I am in my fourth year of technical and hands on training. upon completion and my graduation year i would like to further my education at Monmouth College University. Majoring in Aircraft Avionics Equipment Mechanics and Service Technician.
As an automotive technician i have been trained on how to remove install and repair the mass air flow sensor on an automobile example the mass air flow sensor measure the largest amount of oxygen coming into the engine and would be a skill that i can apply to Aircraft mechanics because the similarity equipment used to complete the job and repair and of them both have mechanical parts.one other reason why Monmouth university is a good school for me is that it will teach e how to interact with others as a group working together with different races and learning how to communicate and listen to others when speaking.and accepting different opinion's of being rejected or agreeable upon. this why i Dashionn Graham think i am eligible for Monmouth University.

sincerly,

I personally chose to base my application off option 5 because it would allow me to best inform my college of choice about what kind of person I am. I could tell them about the career program I would want to go to, I could inform them about my views of the world, what I think of the school, the exact reasons why I wanted to attend that particular school, and what I could give to the school. I could also tell them all of the life experiences that lead up to my decision to attend said school.
It is my hope to pursue a career in video game design, so my choice college would offer class on designing, building, and testing video games. I myself am a gamer, and I would enjoy having the knowledge of how to create something I enjoy. I am currently enrolled in the I.T. program at my technical high-school, studying on how to build, set up, and network computers. I have briefly worked in Alice and Dos programming. It is my hope by the end of the year I will have studied application making, and 3d programming.
I believe that I have the creativity to be successful game story designer. Already I am thinking up ideas for several different game such as a Pokemon MMO. I also hope to work on game art and audio design. I am studying about correct drawing habits, and I believe I do have a good ear for music.

I feel like growing up i was always different, I've been to four different schools in three different states since I started grade school. Originally i was born in Miami FL, on Thanksgiving in 1993. I was born an raised in the MIA then I moved to Las Vegas, Nevada for about two years then we went back to Florida. At age 13 i moved to New Jersey, I've lived in a few different places along with having traveled to well more then 15 different states, not including Puerto Rico, where i’m originally from, which brings me to next point that i also speak two languages..
Though I'm not from any where that was too bad, I've been exposed to so much from such a young age and i feel like that takes a toll on the roll I play in society today. As a senior in highschool i would love to go to college, and nothing would make my parents happier then to see me graduate both highschool and college. In college i want to major in business management, but most of all i want to experience the college life, as in being away from home and being able to take of yourself, managing everything by yourself, and i feel as if going away to a college would transform any boy to a man, kind of like a baby bird leaving the nest.
Ive been around extraordinary influences my whole life, and if i never learned a single other thing, i learned that whatever you choose to do in life, whether it be chasing a career or chasing a dream, make sure its your decision , and most importantly dont let anyone tell you cant do something, the wisest words I've ever heard my mother preach. she has always been there for me and i feel that she has definitely been one of the most influential persons in my life. My brother is another one of those people that have made me who i am today, he is the main reason i want to elaborate on my education and go to a four year college/university. He’s been one of my biggest role models and i couldn’t think of anyone that would have been better.

College Essay

I recently went to Waikiki, Hawaii. While staying there I spent a lot of time on the beaches and in the ocean. The water of the Pacific Ocean was pristine. While swimming you could easily look down and see the fish that were swimming beneath you. The beaches were crowded, but no matter where you went you didn’t see much trash just lying around. When there was trash sitting on the beach, people who noticed it would pick it up and throw it away. At one point during my stay there was a monk seal that had decided to take a nap on the beach. No one would've been concerned that it was going to die due to eating some trash that was on the beach. Even when the police showed up it was only so that they could make sure that the seal wouldn’t be disturbed during its nap. I don’t think that I could ever forget my time there even if I wanted to.


Upon returning home I took a trip to the Atlantic Ocean and couldn’t believe what I saw. The water looked brown compared to that of the Pacific, and there was trash scattered all across the beaches and being blown into the ocean. I caught the ones that were being blown close to me but nobody else was. If it was blown onto them while they were tanning, they would just brush it off and go right back to tanning. If you were to actually look around then you would most likely be able to find a few animals dying or already dead because of the trash on the beach. If a sea animal had become beached, most likely the authorities would be extremely concerned for its health due to the amount of trash on the beach.

The saddest part about this situation is the differences in how the locals and tourists care for the areas ecosystem. Compared to the almost heavenly looking Hawaiian beaches, the beaches of New Jersey are a hell hole. Its almost criminal how much of a difference there is if you were to put the two beaches next to each other.

My Life :)

Hey my named Is Maria... I have live in Camden N.J for eighteen years of my life. I currently attend Camden County Technical School in Gloucester Township Campus. The course that I'm taking is fashion design. I am part of the class of 2012. ”Yeah I Made it!” I live in a single home with my mother. She has support me my entirer life and I thank her for that. My mother is my role model. She motivates me to try my best and never give up on anything that I know I can achieve in life. She has taught me the definition of Love and Beauty. She always tells me never let someone bring you down and always have a positive mind, so that I am able to reach my goals in life. In my neighborhood students rarely make it out of high school. I want to be the one to set a positive example in my neighborhood by finishing high school and attending college. To show students that if I made it they can also make it, but it takes time to improve yourself and who you are in life. My neighborhood is the worst "Camden". I want to leave from here, be better a person, and be independent. I want to proved to myself and others that I can be responsible for my action and reach my career. I want to be the first one in my family to attend college and show them I'm going to be a better person and earn my degrees in college. In 10 years from now I want to teach my children the right direction to success. I want to tell my children that I made it and that they can do the same. I want to teach them the same lessons my mother taught me when I was young. If I'm unstoppable they can also be unstoppable.
Something of personal, local, national, or international concern that’s important to me is the safety in my neighborhood. I live in a neighborhood where there is nonstop violence. I don’t like to see my city in trouble. I would like for it to get better in time. Camden is not all about violence. We have talented people in our city. I would like for them to be recognized for talent and not for where they come from.

Many people think that if you live in Camden, then you’re not talented. I don’t want to be recognized like that. I want people to see me for who I am, which is a young respectful lady trying to make my family proud of me and to be the first in my family to graduate from college. I also am a hardworking person trying to make a better place for where I come from.

All of this violence in my city needs to go. I want to be able to walk down the street and be able to come back home. I’ve heard and read about so many death’s it’s a shame.People shouldn’t have to go through so many funerals. I feel as though no parent should have to bury their child.

Through all my experiences in life, it taught me to be a leader not a follower. So this is why I would like to go to college, so I can make a good name for my city.

super women(:

The person who had a significant influence on me was my mother. She is super women. Its been just about two years her fighting cancer and still is. May 15 2010, the day my mother told me she had cancer is the day the doctor told her she only had three to six months to live. It was a heart breaker I have learned to deal with this. My mother is a strong single women she raises three kids including me for 19 years. Seeing and knowing that my mother is dealing and fighting cancer lets me know that even tho she is sick she is not giving up and it makes me stronger. Some days i feel like giving up on things but when when I think about my mother,she motivates me to do better and makes me realizes that I can do it and not to give up. One day she came up to me and said “Jenny your a very bight young lady and you can do what ever you want to do if you keep your mind on it don’t ever give up”. After she had told me that i sat down and realized that she was right and i cant give i thought to my self and said I’m not going to give up because she’s not giving up fighting with cancer. I want to find the cure for cancer so nobody has to deal or go though the heartache and pain I have been through.
