I pursued the Graphic Design program at Massasoit Community College in Spring 2016 because I realized that I could never give up on creating art. Knowingly that I want to go down to this path, I build up the courage to voice my desire to those that objected my choice for a career path. Because I spoke up to what I really wanted, my action leads my voice to grow with confidence to who I am.
My freshman year felt like I was on a roller coaster because I enjoy every minute of learning and creating, and I never wanted to stop because of the exciting feelings I had towards my learning experience. In addition, having great professors who enjoy interacting with students really helped me learn what I needed to know as a future Designer. I learned to think conceptually, symbolically, and critically towards my work. Developing those skills was not always easy to understand, but with many class critics and advice from students and professor really helped me understand the purpose for different projects. I learned to make my sketches come alive with adobe software like Photoshop,

I have gained a better understanding of the important relationship between image and text and how it could interrelated. In my Graphic Design class, I kept myself open-minded and allowed myself be vulnerable in sharing personal stories with my classmates. I also learned about the struggles my classmates had experienced and what they have learned or how they coped with it. Vocalizing my thoughts has helped define my voice and given me the confidence to continue to share because it builds character to who I am today. I believe knowing how to take criticism from peers is key to learning how to improve my skills so I can become a better designer. I have learned that it does not matter how many sketches I have to create until I am able to come up with a great

There are a lot of reasons why I chose to pursue pharmacy as my career and they all point to the most important reason: pharmacy is a great fit for my life and is something I have become increasingly passionate about. It started when I was researching careers with my parents and my dad suggested pharmacy and, simply put, it sparked my interest because at the time it was one of the few things I thought I would not hate doing. A healthcare career has always been where I put myself in the future, mainly because most of my family members are in the healthcare field. However, I have never been one that could directly help the wounded or deal with anything gory, but am very intrigued by the growing science of pharmacy. As I continue exploring pharmacy, the more I enjoy learning about it and feel like I could excel in this career.
Soaked under sweat, I stood on the running machine, took a deep breath, and counted in my mind, one…two… three, GO! With renewed power and confidence, I started to run again with satisfaction. This moment happened every day in last summer at a gym and I lost 62pounds. Had persisted for five months, I am so proud of myself that I am able to achieve the goal of losing weight and established high self-discipline. In addition, I have gained great appreciation for the challenges. However, I also have grown up from this, on the other hand, frustrated experience. Not because the process of losing weight was painful, but because my by-product of the weight loss journey, my online team.
So many of us came from completely different backgrounds; social status, learning disabilities, and ethnicities. Being in a small class, with such diverse people allowed me to realize that every aspect of life can be different and surprising. Even people that one would not believe to have valuable input are able to contribute to one's life in some meaningful way. The class opened my eyes to the way different people live. I now understand that everyone comes from different backgrounds, but that does not make us that much
Understanding and examining what others have said about topics that have not normally been talked about has sparked an interesting conversation. I have been able to gain insight on issues from two different perspectives giving me a better understanding on how people are affected by the topics I have chosen as my focus.In this semesters Gender Studies class discussion about virginity, femininity, and body image stood out the most because it influences everyday life. Getting the opportunity to ask to close friends what they felt about these topics was fascinating.
I learned from my peers that I am a better writer than I thought I was and that increased my confidence in my writing ability. This didn’t just teach me about myself; I learned how to write several different types of papers. I improved throughout the semester as I learned how to analyze for rhetorical appeals, research an issue, and evaluate a topic. I am glad that I was able to learn a lot from this class, as well as read my peers work. It was intriguing to see how others write and what topic are important to them. Lastly, I was proud of all my work that I accomplished in this
Since the beginning of my academic endeavors, I have long cherished a dream to be a member of the social science research community, which gives our society progressive insights into human ecology. I began my undergraduate studies at Ramapo College of New Jersey with a passion for ecological justice and with the intention of majoring in environmental studies. Ramapo College’s progressive liberal arts foundation provided me with ample room to explore the multifarious array of social science courses. As I took more social science courses, however, my understanding of human social groups underwent a metamorphosis. As a result, I decided to pursue a degree in Social Science, with minors in the two fields I felt most passionately interested in, Women’s Studies and African American Studies.
Please discuss the following items in the order given. Briefly respond to all areas listed.
Some said it maybe cliché to have your childhood experiences as your points to derive you to plan your future. Well for me it is never an ending possibilities to have a childhood experienced that will determine you to get what you really want. From an early age I have always been deeply interested in gaming. I was the only girl in the family that really into games and computer systems. I can always remember the feeling of wanting to know just how the games were developed and design, how the console and system works and what else they could do.
Graphic design has the power to change the way we perceive the world and this is where my passion stems from. I have always had a fascination with visuals and the creative process, graphic design has given me an outlet to pursue this passion. Graphic design to me is essentially a language for living, its not only used to communicate an idea but to make peoples lives easier and I love that I can contribute towards that. I get an immense amount of gratification from developing an idea to its full potential through aspects such as advertising, packaging, branding and visualisation.
Over the course of the semester, I have learned a few things about myself. I have learned that I can be independent, I always knew myself as someone who could do mostly everything on their own. This semester really made me realize how independent I could actually be. Not only have I learned how independent I am I have also realized the importance of time management. With not having a strict class schedule it was a lot different than what I was originally used to. After a few weeks, I learned ways that would work best for me, for example writing down that I needed to get done. I learned that I need to focus on what 's ahead of me to accomplish what I want to succeed in, to manage what needs to be done ahead of time to stay caught up.
Now the communication class is almost over I have realize how important is to have good communication skills, and how it is key to life. I have learned many things in this class for example ways to approach strangers. Another thing that I have learned how to handle conflict and how sometimes it could be good it not always bad and many others. The way I look things have change to have reach my goals. This class was has also taught me how to look in the “other” perceptive, and not being selfish by just seeing one side. All that I have learn will help me and other around me to be able to communicate better.
Both inside and outside class, I learned to be proactive, to question everything, and never to be satisfied with imperfection. I learned that my classmates were not evil rivals, but fellow comrades with the same educational goals as my own. I found them to be invaluable sources of help and guidance in my education. Although extremely different, each Brown student is incredibly passionate about whatever they love to do. I still like nothing better than to sit in a room with a few friends and discuss ideas and concepts that were presented in class.
For instance, I have learned that just simply reflecting on what I am seeing in the classroom is not enough that I have to comprehend and gain knowledge about the classroom in a more profound and meaningful way, such as relating observations to theories and psychology studies. Also I have learned to reflect more deeply on what is going on around me, not just looking at what is at the surface. I took notes during my observation. I tried to not only write what was happening, but also why it was happening and tried to convey any thoughts or feeling the students, teacher or myself had. Lastly, in my reflection, I improved my reflection skills by asking myself questions, such as, “what would I do,” “how would I do it,” and “how would I react?” Then, I would reflect back on what I had learned throughout the semester to see if I could find the most appropriate
