Personal Goals

386 Words1 Page

In this essay we are suppose to explain what our personal goals are for our life, how do we plan on achieving those goals, and finally what challenges that we might encounter. Until now I really never had to think about what I want to do with my life and what I want in my life. Like every other person on the planet I have had dreams of items that I would love to have, but I know I will not. My dreams are nowhere near achievable, my goals on the other hand I hope are.

My goals are what I want in life to make me happy. My immediate goals are to pass my senior year of high school and go on to a good university. Right now that goal is University of Miami, in Florida. After I get my bachelor’s degree in Architectural Engineering I want to get my masters and a doctrine. After that I want to get married to my current girlfriend, we’ve been going out for almost two years and have been through a lot together. Another goal of mine is to move out of, and as far from Des Plaines as I can. Another immediate goal of mine is to finish rebuilding my Mustang by prom; this is almost a dream though. After I establish myself, get a good job, and get a great house I would love to have two kids.

What motivates me to get this goal is my mom and my girlfriend. My mom motivates me because she was going to college to become a physical therapist and she dropped out. Now she is stuck in a job she hates. It may sound kind of mean but I am afraid to end up like my mom. My girlfriend motivates me by keeping me on track and reminding me of some of my dreams.

  • Development of the English Language

    The settlement of the British Isles by north Europeans followed by Norman French paints the backdrop to this essay which will focus on the period between the early 15th and 17th centuries, when a 'standard' English evolved. It will show that modern-day English is very different to that first introduced to the British Isles, but by identifying changes through time, its continuity can be demonstrated. Finally, it will suggest that present day English is in a position analogous to that which existed before the Norman invasion, when there were many varieties and dialects, and that this may lead to its decline as a global language, due to decreasing intelligibility.
