To become a member of the highly esteemed National Honors Society would mean that I have achieved my goal of being an archetype student for North Penn High School. To be blunt, I had stressed over applying for NHS for quite a while, but it was not until mid-way through the application process in which I realized my life is based around the qualities that the National Honor Society holds in high value. I have been yearning to be a part of this remarkable organization since I graduated my freshman year as an officer in NJHS. Since then, my time has been filled with countless volunteering and involvement in extracurricular activities. I am very passionate about what I become invested into, and I work at achieving my goals to the fullest.

National Honor Society is an organization that I feel will really help me to continue to develop my character, leadership skills, and assist in my overall growth as an honorable young adult. Being a part of NHS will open doors that will allow me to reach my highest potential while becoming a better and more charitable person. I am a dedicated and hardworking student and I strive to be my best everyday.

Another situation that comes to mind is when I took part in martial arts.
