The sound of the thunderous crowd in the background seemed to fade away as I approached the stage. Droplets of sweat began to run down my face as my sympathetic nervous system kicked into gear, sherona grant stand up I began to shake and become weak but gained a lot of confidence and I walked upon the stage and held my head high and looked into the crowd and turned around and received my diploma and then on to getting accepted into universities and making my mother a proud woman has been an amazing feeling so I want to continue to place a smile on her heart and a memory on her forehead to show her that I am an success story. A dream can lay waste only if there is no kick start to reality. In the sleep state there is no conscious being but once you are awoken from the formality of death, only being that you were in darkness for nine months and light is at its standing ovation your passage way is a wide and broad path either you take the path less traveled or you take the most traveled path.
I chose to uphold a different light I chose the path less traveled, amongst millions I stand out because of my kindled soul encamping the dark world bringing forward a sense of light to the wilderness. My confidence does not over power my personality, I am a very relaxed person and in the humble state you can only wait upon things to take its place and move freely in your life. In the bible it states faith without work is dead and god helps those that helps themselves. I’m attending Florida a & m university at this moment and I do not think this is the place for me I prefer to attend a university like point university because it has a Christian environment that I need to get closer to god along with my personal experience with god. I went to a high school that had Christian values and the school taught me patience in every way possible.
From the research I did I believe Point University fits who I am as a whole in the mission, values, goals statements states that Point

    But Sooner or later I ended up developing a nonchalant mindset and my performance and even my appearance in school begin to fade away, I gave up on religion at this point as well. Later on in life I ended up running track to give myself a reason to go to school, not knowing how much track would change my life. While running track a run a time that most kids just now starting off wouldn't run, that time qualified me for high school nationals and my coach told me "you know you might have a future in this sport", I have never had anybody to believe in anything that I do until her. So I worked hard and ended up getting look at by schools, and I ended up signing to a D2 school called UAH, my current institution. Also later in life I met a man by the name of David Cain, who is a pastor, and he tried his hardest to get me into church and help me with the things I needed. At the time he just seem annoying but as time goes by he help me understand what it is to be a man and how great God is to this world, this is when I become a born again Christian. I became content with life and no matter what happens I remember that I have a purpose in life, somebody may need me one day so I…

    Seattle University’s Jesuit teaching makes this college one of my top choices. My approach to education is eerily similar to Seattle University’s mission statement. I thrive best in an environment that focuses on educating the whole person through academics and spirituality. Since faith is a key component of my life, I want an education that views intellect and faith in a complementary way. Combined with Seattle University’s emphasis on community service, I will also learn how to make an impact both locally and globally. As I grow into adulthood I want to push myself. I also want to find new ways to make a difference in my surrounding community. Through Seattle University’s various service programs, I can nurture that goal.…

    When I was eleven years old I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. I had a hard time coping with the changes in my mood. Part of my healing process consisted of trying many different medications, therapies, and developing the desire to heal. During this time, friends I had for many years pushed me away, and although I felt alone and confused at times, I came out thriving. Bipolar Disorder is a mood disorder thought to be caused by chemical imbalances in the brain that can result in extreme swings in mood—from manic highs to depressive lows. To be diagnosed with bipolar disorder, you must have experienced a high period (mania). Bipolar mania is described as an “extreme high,” or feeling unusually great. Most people with bipolar disorder when ill or when symptomatic experience more lows than highs. Unfortunately, the lows I experienced were so extreme that the friends I thought would be by my side through anything chose to follow other kids and use my disorder to bully me creating deeper depression. Initially, I felt stigmatized by my diagnosis. Most people I encountered either didn’t know what bipolar was or how to interact with someone suffering with the disorder. Teachers, peers, and family members had a hard time knowing what to say or how to act around me. I started to feel like I was no longer my own person but just one big disaster and my mood swings became even more extreme as a result. Eventually, I grew tired of feeling sorry for myself and began my quest for the right medication, vitamins, nutrition, psychological and spiritual health and wellbeing. I found my inner strength and courage. I put my energy into school, new friendships and family and started…

    A friend recently told me “Don’t let the things you can’t control, control you”. I realized how much this small piece of advice relates to my life as an African American woman. I can’t control the fact that I don’t live with- or even know- my father. I can’t control how society perceives people of color. But I control what I do. I have discovered that I embody the ability to beat the odds given to a black, fatherless girl. I can be who I want to be with hard work and determination.…

    I am ready to start a new chapter in my life and to take the next step to becoming a Registered Nurse. I have worked for the NHS for over 3 years now, and have been a Health Care Assistant for 16 months. Prior to this I worked as an Ambulance Care Assistant for East Midlands Ambulance Service. I have had experience in patient care from washing, bathing, monitoring vital signs, and working both in the community and in a hospital setting. Working as part of a multi-disciplinary team has helped me effectively care for my patients and developed my communication skills in working with other NHS professionals. One of the most satisfying parts of my job now, and in my previous role is the direct patient contact. Developing trusting relationships and listening to them is very rewarding and helps me to get to know my patients, show empathy and maintain their dignity. I am used to shift working, working 7 days a week with various shift patterns, so this side of the role will not faze me.…

    My decision to become a pharmacist was no surprise to my family. Several themes have emerged in my life to make this career the right one for me. Primarily, I was exposed to a full range of health issues, which started the day we were informed that my younger brother was officially diagnosed with leukemia. We were told to head straight to the children’s hospital because there was not a moment to lose. However, as I looked into my parents’ eyes, I realized that my brother was facing something bigger than we had ever experienced before. For three years, my brother received innumerable injections, spinal taps, oral doses of chemotherapy, and steroids. These torturous years were inundated with numerous types of chemicals to attempt to kill his rapidly spreading cancer. The intense regimen of chemotherapy nearly killed him, and I was perplexed as to how a perfectly healthy body could quickly become so ill. As I looked for ways to help myself cope with this harrowing experience, I decided to become more educated about cancer. Many books and websites offered information about cancer and its treatments. These resources gave me a sense of control over what was happening to my brother.…
