College application
I'm bias when it comes to college. Up to now I always wanted to go to college. They paint a pretty picture when they describe it, or when movies and shows display random frat parties and all the possibilities it's up to the student. College seems like a dream. Becoming dependent, an “adult”, and making Ma and Pa proud
When I was younger I used to think time was endless. I wanted to be every high paying job and thought it was possible and simple. Plastic surgeon, doctor, astronaut, jet pilot anything I can do to impress my parents. It felt amazing seeing my parents brag about my future. I ended up straying away from all my dream jobs. Video games, they swap my attention and I never bother thinking about college much after that. Instead of doing well for my career I only did well when my parents bought me new games or consoles, which was a bad habit
I've reached low points in my life, I find rather funny now. We can spend years blaming or complaining but it's better to like president Bill Clinton said, “Get things done”. Since then and now I always wanted a second chance recap my whole life and make different decisions, but that would be selfish and impossible. School has taught me basic common knowledge along with some complex math and science vocabulary with a variety in writing formats and... So on, But I also learned a life experience how to communicate. It's thanks to Berkmar High I'm mature and have good friends
I'm different I'm the guy who spends approximately eight hours on the computer surfing the internet. YouTube videos, playing video games, messaging friends threw Skype or Steam. I was never s**ed into the MySpace or Facebook craze. To my folks I'm antisocial, they say it to aware me of my actions. I don't hang out with friends outside of school it's just a how I've always been mostly a loner. Sure I never met most of my friends in person, but we share the common inters in video games and comedy. I'm a mix in most of all my friends; I'm mature, immature, stubborn, and a joker. Video games have influenced my love in media, and video editing. I love to entertain people. That's why I want to the profession of media, learn to edit videos, learn to make music videos, all the CGI I want, Not sure how difficult it is, and with the little experience I have from windows movie maker, I'm sure I'll get the hang of it with some professional training, whether it be college or YouTube videos. I've started making YouTube Let's plays with my friends; it's a hobby and its fun making them with friends. I've learn how to edit videos from this by watching tutorials on YouTube or fooling around with windows movie maker and now Sony Vegas 12. The possibilities are only limited to one's capacity of acquiring the knowledge
