The continuous emphasizes of how important a good education is needed, has always ran big in my family. As much as school is important, you must find a balance to fit other extracurricular activities outside of school then just simply always having your nose in a book and studying. School is the essential for the future and is mandatory in order to get a good education. Without school, you will lose so many great and life changing opportunities. Opportunities like a university or a college degree will all abolish if you don’t take advantage of this availability to you where many people may not be as fortunate to have access to. A quote from Warn Buffet, "the more you learn, the more you earn". From this quote, he states the more knowledge and information you consume, the more money you will likely make in the future. But most importantly, learn from your mistakes and errors. F.A.I.L stands for First Attempt In learning. This is the best thing anyone could do because you can involve from your mistakes, as nobody is perfect. The things that I have messed up with, will now forever stick in my head. For the future I really suggest you to try your hardest in school and well as maintain a social life, to make connections and practice the art of socializing.

My interest in a counseling related profession and helping others spawned as a result of a lifetime of learning and curiosity; namely, mindfully molding my thoughts, actions, and habits into a perpetual pattern of unconscious and unpremeditated altruistic behavior. Furthermore, I have always aspired to determine the roots of all my emotions and master the behaviors of a trustworthy, loyal, courteous, and kind individual. Every day should begin with the thought, “What can I, as an individual or collaboratively with others, accomplish to relieve part of the shared and total human suffering of this world?” If such a mantra was revered by the collective consciousness of the human race, misery and suffering would be sharply reduced, if not eliminated

In the same way an artist can paint on a canvas, computer scientist can create through code and each program carries a sense of the programmer with it. The more you learn about CS the more uses it gains, making it a tool that builds upon itself.

It’s always the same after every introduction and a little history lesson about the Christianity of India. The all too familiar question “ Since you’re parents are both pastors, will you become a pastor too?” If I can count there may be around 3,000 times people asked whether I would become a pastor since I will be fourth generation women on my mother’s side that go to seminary. It still confuses me every time why everyone thought I would become a pastor like my parents. Indeed, I come from a long lineage of pastors and missionaries from both of my parent’s families, however, I always felt it is a calling that was more sacred and meaningful rather than carrying on the family name.
