Personal Statement: Chinese American Internship
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! A little about me - I'm a 15 year old Chinese American and consider myself a very social person. I attend Abraham Lincoln High School in San Francisco and starting this fall semester, I'll be a junior! I believe that I'm a good fit for this internship because of my ability to adapt to any situation, being easy to work with, and being a very opinionated person. I love to give feedback to help improve and advance current and future actions. Being that I'm living in the generation of technology, I'm certain that it's going to stay for a long time. Since I'm very interested in the tech industry, I think this internship will help me dive deeper into learning how apps are made, the importance of technology,

    Dbq Essay On Chinese Americans

    Like past immigrants who came from Germany, Ireland and other places around the world. Chinese people in America faced many challenges when migrating. They felt like outcasts. Some experiences for the Chinese were in racist encounters and the feeling the way that Nazli Kibra felt when she came to America. She had always thought of herself as an American when she thought of herself as “the American kid on the block,” (Source F) until she went to school and she felt outcast and that “Whites think they own the world and the rest of us are just here for them.” (Source F) They felt as though they did not fit in in America.

    Personal Narrative: My Growing Up As A Second Generation Asian American

    Growing up as a second generation Asian American, courage was a word that I was well versed with. My parents fled Cambodia after spending years in rice fields, fearfully working for the communist party that tore their lives away from them. When the moon rose each night the blood and tears of the broken country were shadowed by the somber preparations for the next day. For my father, the day just begun; no one ever dared to escape before dark. His arrival in a Thailand refugee camp was crucial. As a teacher, he was targeted. The goal was to demolish all evidence of the “old society.” But he was caught. The soldiers tied him to a tree and beat him. Although no matter how many times he was hit, he continued to say his prayers. His continuous…

    Moving To America Personal Statement

    Gazing out of the airplane window, I saw the words Mei Guo— “beautiful country” in Chinese—painted on the airport terminal. My mother and I immigrated to America when I was a small child from Taishan, China. She aimed to remove me from a life where society would limit my options and ostracize me due to my father’s blindness from Retinitis Pigmentosa and the family’s lack of proper education. My father was willing to let go of his only child because he, too, knew it would open infinite opportunities for me to succeed. Though my new life in America seemed prosperous at first, I soon realized I needed to create opportunities for myself despite our lack of resources.…

    I was four years old when my family immigrated to the United States from Ukraine. It was a crazy experience and a big life change for all of us. There were many obstacles to be faced living a life completely far away from what we used to call home. It was very difficult to leave my grandparents back in Ukraine. They were a significant source of encouragement for me especially my grandfather. He was my hero. He was the main nurturer who provided a lot of encouragement and support for me in the very hard times of my life. In times of crisis when life felt like a crashing wave, he was the one I always ran to for guidance. Like most immigrants, we didn’t know any English, therefore it was extremely hard to communicate with anyone.…

    Personal Statement: My Pursuit Of The American Dream

    I am a Mexican immigrant and as most immigrants, I had to trade all I had in exchange for the pursuit of the American dream. I was born in Guadalajara, Mexico; However, I was raised in a small rural area in the south of Zacatecas, Mexico where agriculture and livestock rising where the main economic activities. My family owned a small farm where we used to produce corn, beans, sugar cane, and other types of produce; we processed the corn and used it as food for the livestock. Since I was a kid, I had to help my parents with the farm, and attend school at the same time. The schools that I attended were a rudimentary rural school that consisted of a couple of classrooms and at most two teachers for the school. Even though these schools were less than ideal, the teacher's quality and the student's passion to learn created an atmosphere of mutual respect and healthy…

    Personal Statement for Internship with NASA

    It’s amazing that I am even writing this letter right now. I never knew that over these years and challenges I would be asking NASA to put their stamp on my future. I have always dreamed of working for NASA since I was little boy watching Armageddon. Years ago I met a captain in the United States Marine Corps who convinced me to go for my dreams of flight. She told me stories and I was deeply inspired knowing that she was that pilot that she spoke of. She made mention of the weapons, the planes, and a few of the technologies that she had come in contact with. From where I was standing at that moment I could not see any way that I could ever have a chance to do the things that she spoke of. Even though I was a little discouraged I had a fire inside of me. As a Marine myself I always had the feeling that there was nothing in existence that I could not do.…
