Everybody imagine What would they like to do when they grow up. But the way gets closer when they are at 4th of high school because you need to choose a career. That's when this journey really starts. There are just two options I'm high school. One is the unified baccalaureate and the other, the international baccalaureate. Both give you opportunities to be successful but one is the one which will give you the chance to be successful and amazing. International baccalaureate is an organization that aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. Also develop challenging programs of international education and rigorous assessment. It is a two-year educational programme primarily aimed at students from 16 to 19 years. The program is one that provides an internationally accepted qualification for entry into higher education, and is accepted by many universities worldwide.

Galileo Galilei was very meddlesome when it came to the scientific community. He is one of the world’s most renowned and possibly greatest scientist that contributed to the scientific revolution. Galileo’s thirst for knowledge was not necessarily a good thing, due to his devotion for science, he was condemn from the Catholic Church (Michael N. Marcus) and alienated for not fitting social norms; ironically becoming an outcast of the society he was trying to better. Using one of the worlds all time horror classics Frankenstein by Mary Shelly, and one of the greatest films of all time Forrest Gump, they both show us how the pursuit of what is known to the individual as the best and correct course of action could be truly dangerous. While Galileo was motivated by his commitment to the truth, both Forrest Gump and Frankenstein’s monster are driven by love and a childlike desire to explore the world around them. Ironically, acting on love, care, and innocence would have nearly accurately been portrayed by Bon Scott as a “highway to hell” (AC/DC).
At the time, I wasn’t thinking about the consequences. All I knew is that I was angry and tired of hiding who I was. It was doing more harm than any good. I just wanted to be who I am and didn’t want my school to stop me from doing that.
occurring while I was in school, but now that I look back at it I realize that it did.
It was middle school. A time where my peers and I begin to question everything, develop, and mature. I was in the 8th grade when I found out a close friend of mine was self-harming. The news was difficult to process. I was frightened. I was still trying to figure out myself and the world, how was I to help my friend? At first, I decided maybe it was not my situation to handle and just keep quiet. It was not up to me to resolve her problem for her. Maybe she would stop. But, it soon flooded my mind with thoughts and questions, what if it she committed considerable damage to herself? I could not keep it in much longer and I decided I did not care if my friend felt mad at me for letting an adult know. She needed help. I decided to go to a teacher
Whatever the case was, you decided to throw caution to the wind and went anyways. Your parents wanted you to go, and you weren't one to disappoint them.
College is a great experience where no all high school students get the chance to live the feeling of a college student before their graduation. High school might be great for these teenagers, but college is even greater. College can offer them a lot more experience than they get while in high school. Becoming a college student and having a professional education is more than important for new generations. The importance of having an associate degree, a doctoral degree, and a master degree symbolize a successful person. Becoming an educated person with any degrees will make that person’s life as simple as attending to school and getting the best out from it. Now, high school students should attend to college before or after they graduate to
Going to study in a new country can be a stressful experience, from learning the culture norms to new foods. Culture shock is common with international students. Culture shock can include, meeting new people, language barriers, social behaviors, and a sense of community. A students comfortability with the culture of their new home can determine their learning experience. It can be an emotional rollercoaster, being so far away from family and friends. American culture is difficult to understand. International students find Americans to be confusing. Social norms vary depending on the part of the country a person is in.
Middle school taught me that people can be cruel. It taught me that I have to be able to keep my head high when people try to bring me down, and I need to remain strong in order to make my own happiness. When I was in middle school, there were people who made fun of me for a number of reasons, none of which are important now. Not only did those people make fun of me, but they made me believe that I was worthless. I had books thrown at my head and had people tell me that I should cut my wrists vertically so that it did the job that it was supposed to do. I believed them and thought that ending my life would have been the best way to end their torture. I had decided, one day, that I had had enough and it was time for me to let go. I wrote a note and was ready to end it after school that day, but someone had seen my note...

Literature and science are among the components that are compulsory to be studied by all IB students. Through the exploration of these components, the students obtain knowledge and understandings about individuals and societies. This is parallel with the IB mission statement to develop knowledgeable and caring young people in order to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. Individuals and societies are the group 3 in the IB hexagon. In my opinion, the learning of literature and science in the IB programme contributes a lot to my understandings of individuals and societies from different parts of the world, although I do not meet them. Literature is defined as a creative writing by an author that describes a particular society. Science is a systematic study about everything that occurs in the physical and natural world and are based on observation and experimentation . It is branched into two areas of knowledge, which are Natural Science and Human Science. One can acquire knowledge about individuals and societies through language, reason and sense perception. Through the learning of literature and science in IB programme, I gain knowledge about cultural and ethical values of a society, and the behaviour of individuals when facing certain circumstances. However, truth about it can be questioned since I do not observe the people myself and sometimes individuals do not behave as in the theory that I have learned.

College is known to be the first step into adulthood. As a person enters a world of responsibilities, they are expected to make a series of decisions that draw the path to the next phase of their life such as, which university to apply to, which field of studies they choose, and so on. Personally, the American University of Beirut was my first choice, and some personal experiences highly support my decision; AUB offers many different experiences that create the differences between school and college, mold us to become adults, and introduce us to an immersive community.
Ever since I was a little girl, I have wanted to go into the College of Education. I would come home from school every day and go right to my “classroom”. I would have make-belief students, and I would prepare worksheets for them to do. My mom would occasionally help me out and be my “student teacher”. She helped me grade papers and sometimes would pretend to be one of my students and draw the pictures that I had asked to draw. I even went outside to take them out for recess, and when it was time to go back inside, believe it or not, I even had my own personal whistle. I always think back to those days because I have never thought about doing anything else. Going into the College of Education has always been my dream, and I am not going to give up on what I have started.
y first semester at APU has gone by rather fast. It seems like orientation was only yesterday, and today we are taking finals. A lot has happened in these few months as I embark on my college career as a freshmen once again. College is a big step up when compared to high school. I am surrounded by adults far more knowledgeable than I. This year has also been full of new things, new classes, new adventures, new challenges and new risks. The college transition was more than slightly overwhelming. There were multiple times where I was completely at a loss for how to move forward. This semester has also been full of triumphs and growth. College is one of the greatest opportunities we have to grow, in our entire life. However, you cannot have growth
Coming into this year, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from college and my classes. So far my experience at Ohio University has been pretty great, I have meet some really great people that I could end up being friends for life. My learning community has to be probably one of my favorite classes, out of all of my other classes that I am taking. The classes that I’m currently taking during my freshman year is Math 1200, IArt 1170, Eng 1510, Anth 1010, and UC 1000. I really enjoy all of my classes currently except IArt 1170, something about that class just really rubs me the wrong way. It’s just not very interesting but I need to power through that. Other than that I really can’t complain too much.
