To start off with, I would love to be able to use the unmarked vehicles, as I'm certain that patrolling in one of these gives a huge advantage in catching the road law breakers - there's the element of surprise, they don't expect a random car to be a cop car. I've been patrolling with my good friend Kelly Macares and she taught me some good places to camp where very oftenly people don't yield at intersections - camping it with a cruiser makes them stop beforehand and it loses the point, they would

The Wellesley Effect. I heard this phrase a few days ago and it inspired me to rewrite this essay. I watched the video for the campaign and it brought shivers down my spine as I realized everything the Wellesley women were saying is something I would like to get out of college. Wellesley “is the place” where I will be able to become a woman of science and art and sport. Wellesley’s liberal arts education will give me the opportunity to become a well-rounded individual. I will be able to explore

“Hello, welcome to Payless!” I would say with a big smile as another new face walked through the glass doors. The summer before my senior year I spent much of my time working for Payless ShoeSource as a Sales Associate. My coworkers and I would follow the same routine every day; greet the customer, discuss our promotions, offer assistance of any kind, and hopefully make that huge sale. I learned a lot from working retail and believe it has prepared me for my future goal of working in marketing.

I have had many opportunities presented to me in my life that have inspired me in my journey into adulthood, and none have been more impactful than the two times I participated in a foreign exchange program to France. I chose to take French as my language elective in the 8th grade, against the wishes of many, who saw Spanish as more practical. After taking the National French Exam (or La Grande Concour), and ranking top 10 in Southern California, I decided to continue pursuing it in high school.

From a young age I have been mesmerized by the human body with its many systems. My love of science and children are just some of my reasons for choosing children’s nursing. I enjoy a challenge towards a objective and although nursing is a tough career it can be extremely rewarding expressed by the nurses I have spoken to during my experience through school and college and on a personal level as I recently visited Salford Royal Hospital from which I had a great chance to speak with Nurses such as

Besides the reason how college is expected of me from my family I do want to make a difference in other people’s lives. I have thought since I was younger of what career path I should take and what sprung out to me was the medical field. I have watched videos and have done my share of research of what I wanted to be, but it still has not helped. Going to college will help me along with all the research, of my options to make a good choice and broaden my perspective. Going to college will give me

In our lives, we all have a niche. Some people enjoy cooking, some enjoy playing chess, and some love delving into a good book. Though I have had a hand in several activities throughout my life, I have found my niche to be playing the trombone. I began playing the trombone when I entered the sixth grade. As a twelve year old, playing an instrument was a trying task. The night I brought my instrument home, I assembled it and made the most atrocious sounds anyone had ever heard. I had no idea what

I have learned a lot in my first year of college, academically and socially. More importantly though, I learned a lot about myself. To be more specific, I learned what values are important to me. In my first year of college I lacked, personal and intimate relationships and learning environments, a space to practice and grow into my religion, and the exposure to a student population with diversity. It was in recognizing that I was missing these things that I realized Loyola University would be a
