I realized I am always ready to help sick people two years ago, when I took care of my nephew at the Calgary Children’s Hospital. He was very ill and at that time, they were some assistant nurses at the hospital. They allowed me to help them take care of sick children. The experience was instantly rewarding and I was fulfilled. I said to myself that when I become a full-pledged nurse, I shall instantly start my profession. It felt like a sort of a vocation or a calling and I realized it instantly.

I absolutely love FSU’s mission statement, and its principles of leadership, learning, service and global awareness.

I have always wanted to help people, even when I was young; growing up in Gainesville, FL, some of my first jobs included babysitting for ...

As far as my career is concerned, my biggest aspiration is to make a difference in the life of children. It was during my freshman year at Leesville High School when I was attracted to exploring the various aspects of child development and psychology. Over the past ten years, my passion to work with children has impacted my life tremendously. My parents have always instilled in me that in order to make a difference in the world, I must first serve others by helping in my community, and this inspired me to make one of my short term goals to acquire a ...

It was never my plan to pay for Graduate School using student’s loan as this would double my loan debt. However, this was not to be. All the plans changed the very day my sister passed on. She left behind a beautiful, three day old baby boy, whose care became my sole responsibility. Considering the great achievements of my sister and the big plans she had for the baby, I never wanted to be a let-down. I had to accomplish the dreams of my sister. The biggest wish she had was to ensure that her son obtained the same level ...

Personal Statement

My decision to pursue a career in medicine stems from an early age, when I used to dream of working in science and medicine and even now – all these years later – I still cannot imagine doing anything other than having a career in those fields.

I don’t remember it myself, but my parents tell me she would not have survived if ...

I have always wanted to work closely with children in an intellectually stimulating environment, and, in my opinion, a career of a middle school educator is the best way to achieve this. Being an educator in a middle school, one has a great chance to teach and to gain some knowledge simultaneously, as middle school children are the best ones to learn from. They have so much enthusiasm and passion for life, something that grown ups have already forgotten about.
I realize that being a teacher in a middle school might be quite a challenge, however I am ready to accept it. You cannot imagine ...

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 ...

Todays world is fraught with difficulties. Turning on the nightly news, it seems that disasters occur on a regular basis. Families are constantly tested by circumstances that appear to be beyond individual control. Most vulnerable amongst people facing disasters, family difficulties, or other challenges are children. Children do not have the life experience that is required to make sense and come to terms with difficult situations that arise from time to time in every person’s life. Counselors provide a line of support for individuals and help them overcome their challenges.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal” (Corinthians 13:1)
My most treasured possession if my copy of the Corinthians 13 of the Bible. To me, these few verses are a crystal clear reflection of love, that emotion that we humans struggle lifelong to understand. We love, and we part; we get hurt and most of the times we hurt others for the same reason. To many people love is a blessing, and to some, it is an overrated human emotion that is a source ...

Bullying
For decades, bullying, more than any other safety problem in schools, has continued to attract more attention. The problem is escalated even further by the fact that most bullying incidences often pass unreported hence the problem keeps on evading measures that are put to ensure its aversion. Sampson (n.d) defines bullying as a repeated physical, psychological or verbal intimidation against another person who in one way or another is unable to defend himself or herself. According to Sampson (n.d), repeated harm and imbalance of power are the main components of bullying. Ideally, bullying is normally done ...

When I was on a work experience placement at a local newspaper, I was asked to visit a charity event over the weekend and to write an article reporting on it.

In particular, I spoke to two families who were benefitting from the organisation. I noted down their names and what the child in question was suffering from. ...

Pharmacy, to me, is the application of medications in varying combinations in order to make people’s lives longer and more comfortable. I have long been interested in drugs and their interactions. As a child, I remember my younger brother being allergic to crustaceans, which resulted in severe physical symptoms, turning him from the fun-loving brother I knew to a crying, itching mess. I was often asked to go to the drugstore to purchase anti-allergy drugs to bring him relief. It always amazed me how the medicine seemed to work like magic, and this aroused my curiosity. I wanted to know ...

When I was a young child, I was considered to be weak because my health was very poor. I was always told that my priority should be to become as healthy and strong as the other children; as a result, I used it as an excuse to not try as hard as I could have done. I always knew myself to be a bright child but managed to convince myself that because I was so weak, I was unable to work as hard as I could have done. That said, I always wanted to strive for me after watching my Father work in a ...

Personal Life Achievement

Sometimes some accident events like meeting a new friend, reading an interesting book or listening to a beautiful song can inspire a person to change his or her life, to act and achieve more.

I wanted to act immediately and waiting was not an option for me. I started searching for opportunities to do what I always wanted to do: helping unprivileged ...

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 ...

Every child dreams of becoming an engineer, a doctor, a lawyer and all other manner of rosy professions. Television programmes and adverts make these professions appear surreal. As a child, I was no different; I knew I would study medicine and become a famous surgeon in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Sadly, my dream did not last long. At ten years old, I discovered that I could hardly stand the sight of blood. Even the tiniest drop would make me queasy. Still, the fact that I grew faint at the sight of blood did not immediately extinguish my dreams. My friends would laugh out loud ...

I was young and next door was a widely known and esteemed (in the neighborhood) web developer who was not prominent because of his impeccable web developing skills, but because of his deathless love for children. Max used to gather several children in his house to banquet on several types of candies he has collected from the several cities he traversed during the week. This had become the modus operandi for every Saturday afternoon and beginning Thursday I would start preparing for the Candy Saturday, as it had grown to be called. These rapturous Saturdays were, however, ephemeral as Max ...
