Goals

Within the next year:

  • I love music with all of my heart and have taught myself how to play instruments in the past, but recently I have given myself the task of teaching myself piano.  This is taking a little more time for me because it is very unlike any other instrument I have ever played. So, within the next year I hope to be able to play the piano at an above average skill.
  • I also would like to get back to my healthy body within this next year.  Growing up I was always playing a sport, but that changed when I went to college, and dessert came much more available to me.  Though I did not gain the freshman 15(which is an accomplishment of it’s own), I want to gain my muscle back and get into the fittest shape of my life, and be STRONG.  This goal isn’t about being skinny to me, it is about being strong and having confidence in my presence.
  • Go on multiple service trips.  I realized after coming to college how difficult it can be sometimes to not just sit when you have free time and do nothing.  I want to increase the amount of volunteer work I do because it makes a difference in the world.  Also, the feeling of volunteering and serving is addicting, and once you start you can’t stop!
  • Get a 4.0 GPA this spring semester.  Though this is a goal for every semester, I am taking this goal step by step and focusing on one semester at a time!
  • Completely cut out plastic straws and silverware from my life.

Within the next 5 years:

  • Get accepted into Med School.  My life’s dream is to be a doctor who can travel and provide healthcare to people who cannot afford it.  Getting accepted into Med School is the first step to making that happen!
  • Go on a Global Brigade.  Global Brigades is a volunteer program that focuses on global health.  Volunteers pick from a variety of programs to deal with.  My dream program would be a medical brigade, but I would love to volunteer with any of the programs.
  • Become vegan.

Within the next 20 years:

  • I hope to have become a doctor who is able to make a difference in people’s lives.  I would like to have the time/funds to be able to provide assistance in healthcare and give my time and medical skill to those around the world who need it.
  • Make an impact on the world.
