College essay #2 social issue

Nowadays, people are very disrespectful. Adults do not teach or show their children to respect one another, especially adults. Some adults, teenagers and small children are mean and take their anger out on people they do not know.

            People do not have manners. When children grow up surround by people that are mean and aggressive, they do the same. Adults show them how to behave and this is why it is very important that adults teach children to be respectful in order to live good lives or else they will grow up to be adults without direction.

In my apartment building, people slam the doors so hard that you could feel the vibrations on the next floor. They also hit each other day and night. One day, your neighbor can smile at you, and the next day they see you as if you were their worst enemy.  First, people need to respect themselves, so they can learn to respect others. However, one particular family does not respect at all, so they started inviting people in their apartment to live with them without paying rent. One of them ended up doing something horrible to the whole building. On the eve of June 29, 2011 a man with a cane, who made others believe he could not walk, could perfectly fine, and started a fire in the apartment. There was an unsupervised 3-year-old child stuck on the top floor.

Luckily, the fire and police department came just in time. The man was arrested but showed no remorse. I do not understand how people have no consideration or respect for anything. When I grow up, I want to be a teacher and teach elementary children the mathematics. I want to educate them beyond a subject area; I want to teach my students to be respectful. One reason I want to educate my students is that on other first things people do is criticize. You need to be responsible, respectful and well educated in order to go far in life and have a good future. Another reason I want to educate kids because by growing up and getting older they going to know how to respect. If parents and teachers do not educate their kids or students, while growing up they going to become irresponsible and disrespectful.

This demonstrates the reasons why I want to be a teacher.  I want to show my students that if they want to have a good future, there is a need to respect themselves and others.  If you do not respect others, you become in a bad violent person. This is why adults need to educate children and show them how to respect for their own good.

POSt # 17 The Art Institute

What I like about The Art Institute of New York were the class sizes, there are four campuses and its full time or part time in the school classes. Yes, there were obvious differences between the two mercy campuses I visited. The differences were that this was a huge school and it looks very interesting and it looks the teachers are joyful to educate. What interested me of this School are the classes, how they designed and the classes’ looks exiting. What interested me the least was it did not have a cafeteria it had a small lounge. Yes, I would consider this college for an option because I was not interested on fashion but I went there and it really opened my eyes and mind.

POSt #16 Mercy Bronx Campus

What I liked of the Bronx Campus was there was a gigantic cafeteria. The differences that I saw from the Bronx and Manhattan campus were that the Bronx campus is small and it has a cafeteria but it does not have a lounge like the Manhattan campus. The campus that I prefer is the Manhattan campus. It has at least a lounge but I did not like what they sale in the Bronx campus cafeteria. The campus that I see myself is in The Bronx campus because its closer, it has great teaching ,and it has the pact program and the Manhattan are more far away from my house.

Post #15 Class participation

 What I learn about the way I need to participate in the classroom is to talk loudly and to express myself even though I am shy. If I am shy, what ill need to do is to talk to the teachers after class, so I feel comfortable. There are differences in how I participate in a classroom versus how a student should participate in a classroom are that I am shy I do not participate because I want to it is because I am force too. How I am going to utilize this information is by doing my work every day and try my best is a better person. The changes I will make in my life once I get to college are to become responsible.

The changes that I will make in my life with regard to management a change once I get to college are to become independent and do my work. What I learn of time management is that in order to go to college we need to calculate time. Additionally I am not using my time effectively in the correct way.

POSt #13 Social topic

The topic that I chose is how disrespect leads to violence. I chose this particular topic because I want to be a teacher and teach my students how to be respectful to everyone in every setting. This is important to me because there is a lot of violence and lack respect in school and in my community.  It is not good because as a community are supposed to be like a family love each other and respect one another. This topic will best represent me because I am growing up in a community and I see ill-mannered people in my community and a lot of violence. The impression I want this essay to have on them is to feel how I feel when I am in my community that I feel very sad to be in there.

POSt #12 Visit to Mercy College Manhattan Campus

From yesterday’s, tour in Mercy College were the best qualities: class size and the library looked organized. In addition, another quality was a learning center that provides free tutoring. Another reason I like Mercy College is they looked very respectful and there is an honors program. I learned the college setting was small campus and has a lounge. In my opinion, I think is a great financial option because you could rents books that are expensive. The most important while completing an application is starting early, visit colleges and asked questions.

These are the places they give me scholarships. These places should accept me or give me the scholarship because I have an 80 -85 average student. Therefore, it says u need to have a 3.0 to get accept it. In my opinion, I think I am going to be accepted because I have a good GPA. The requirements they are looking for is be of a Hispanic heritage.

The college I am going to attend is a CUNY school because I think is economical. In addition, I prefer going to a CUNY college because the college I want to go is Lehman College. On the other hand, is closer to my house and since I was 8 years old I wanted to go to Lehman college. My preparation to go to Lehman College is preparing for the SAT.

My Pell estimator is $5,208, so I do not need to save money because the money that will be left to be used for other expensive consideration, loans is going to be $6, 65800.

College Essay # 1

College Bound                                                                            Juana Herrera

                  July 21, 2011

                                     

                                                                                                                       

            My mother is my life and my best friend because she is an excellent role model. She is a brave woman to come to New York and be independent, when she was only 14. Her parents were separated before she was born, so she grew up with her grandparents on Misquitepec Acatlan de Osorio, Mexico. Her mother, my grandmother, needed to come to New York, so they could have money to eat. My grandmother came here to New York in order to send back money to Mexico. Something that many immigrants do when they grow up in poverty-stricken areas. The story of my mother’s life is inspirational and makes me realize how fortunate I am.  I am grateful to her and my grandparents for moving here and giving me the opportunity of being born in New York.      

           

              It is important to find out what lifestyle your ancestors lived. So every year in the summer, my family goes on vacation to Mexico. My parents, my brother and I do not like the pueblo, but we go to see our great-grandmother. The pueblo is nothing like the city. Everyday commodities that we take for granted in the Bronx are not present in the pueblo. It rains almost all the time, which causes the electricity to go off. There is no cable to watch T.V. On the streets there seems to be more animals than people walking around.  They are poor because you do not get to see furniture like New York.  They are not organized with their things. Their houses are not as clean as the city because animals go inside the homes. Poverty is present in all aspects of life in the pueblo.

          

          In the pueblos in Mexico, you also see many people that are old, sick and dying. Sometimes, people do not have money to go to the hospital. There are different pueblos, so they go to Acatlan and go see a doctor. The doctors are not as good as New York or in Mexico City, the capital. On other hand, doctors do not know what is wrong with the patient. That is why people go to Mexico City to go and check up with a doctor. People says that they are better doctors in Mexico City because in the pueblo is just a small place and only one doctor. Sadly, people are so poor that they do not get to travel to find a good doctor and that is why they are dying.

           

           In the pueblo, you can even lose your life. Two years ago, we were in my grandma’s house, we have come from eating tacos at night. When the lights are off the scorpions comes out. I was wearing a blue jean and a yellow shirt even though is it was too hot, I did not want to get a tan. Then the scorpion was walking over my jeans, but my grandma saw the scorpion and she told me “don’t move “. I thought she was playing, so I started moving the she killed it. She saves my life!

               

          Going to Mexico makes me feel how lucky I am to have been born here. It makes me feel lucky because I have warm water to take a bath. I have many supplies to go to school to use them. Furthermore, I do not pay textbooks to use them in school only if I damaged it. I am lucky to be born here because I have free food and in Mexico, you get to buy or bring from home. If you do not bring money or bring food then you do not eat anything .Another reason, I am lucky to be born on the United States is because I have good teachers. For example, teachers in Mexico do not know how to teach English or how to speak and write proper English. Mexico don’t teaches Therefore, my mother’s Mexican heritage inspires me to appreciate what I have and donate to others who do not have much. Moreover, my mom affects my life by showing me how to appreciate everything, regardless of what it costs. What matters is people giving it to you by heart.

Living at home

The two top colleges for me are Lehman College and College of Optometry because they interest me. I spend some time weighing the advantages and disadvantages of living at home versus living on campus the preference for me is living at home. An advantage living at home is eating well and concentrating more. The disadvantages for living at home are not going to class on time.  On the other hand, an advantage living at a campus is that I could become more independent and responsible. An advantage living at a campus is I could ask a teacher for help of a lesson that she teach us. The disadvantages for living on campus are getting involved in fights with the person I am with in the room. In addition, another disadvantage to living in a campus is the food. Another disadvantage to living on a campus is losing my homework, projects my important papers. Therefore, these are the disadvantages and advantages living at home or living on a campus.
