Different viewpoints may arise when it in to technology today’s society. One may think it is convenient, while others my say it’s distracting. Cellphones are suitable for paying bills or making emergency calls in a severe situation. However, I believe that cellphones are more of a distraction rather than a useful source, because they make […]
From a young age I’ve developed an ability to evaluate, analyze, and asses the factor of risk when making a decision. I picked this up from my father, who influenced me through his logically thorough nature. Any question along the lines of ‘hey dad, why don’t we do this?’ has always been answered with a […]
The rain falls in torrents. Like an engorged snake, the river has made its way hazardously close to the cluster of houses that huddle behind three feet tall sandbags. The river has easily overtaken the wild knotweed and flimsy trees that protrude from the water waving their surrender. And although it appears to be moving […]
There comes a moment in a man’s life when some wisdom starts creeping into his brain, and this wisdom, although its acquisition is traditionally scarcely voluntary, aids him in the many dimensions of his life, but most of all, it help him understand himself, and, perhaps as a consequent, life. As for me, I’ve always […]
I had lost a piece of myself. I wasn’t sure of where I lost it, and I wasn’t quite sure exactly what it was that I had lost. All I had was a rush of memories. Days, weeks, months, that all blended into a dull existence. Even though I could not pinpoint an exact time, […]
My room is a sedimentary rock. The encompassing high-paced, high-stress atmosphere gives the strain essential to compress every day into a brand new layer of clothes: Monday’s T-shirt lies beneath Tuesday’s fuzzy socks, Wednesday’s denims, Thursday’s outsized sweater, and Friday’s solar costume. Scattered beside the style time-capsule are colourful scraps of development paper from Saturday’s […]
Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you. My mother—a single parent—works as a civil servant of Bhutan: due to her occupational hazards, I was entitled to attend boarding school and travel alone at a young age. Ever since I started to attend […]
Being diagnosed with a life-threatening disease my freshman year wasn’t easy. It was, however, a catalyst for lifelong compassion, a newfound forum for personal philosophy, an ideal foundation for tackling obstacles, and the ultimate lesson in redefining my limits. Most importantly, it’s the premise of my bravest story. Lying in the light of a monitor […]
Unborn Pig Fetus Dissection. That is my academic project which has shaped what I want to do with my life. I partook in this project my freshman year. I already knew that I wanted to go to Notre Dame, after high school, but throughout the year I had to deal with people asking me what […]
At 7:11 a.m., the morning of August 29th, 1994, my twin brother Ramzi was born. Two minutes later, I used to be born, setting the stage for a lifetime of competitors that will turn into the driving horse behind each of our aspirations and laborious work. All through our total existence, my brother and I’ve […]
