Ambitions

Throughout my life I have had a lot of goals and aspirations. I have spent a lot of time on thinking and deciding which field of education I want to go in and other personal plans. Since I was five years old I have been interested in training pugs. It was not until this past year that I genuinely started to get heavily involved with training pugs. The only similar interests I have is in the medical field, as well as the musical field. As a teenager I have remained fascinated in the function and structure of the human body and all it’s parts, how it works and how it is organized. Finding the right school for me that has an excellent dog-training program, musical program, as well as a distinguished medical program has not been an easy task. My ambitions to study dog-training, music performance, and medicine has helped me maintain a strong sense of self-determination to do well in high school, both with grades and activities. 

Having been a senior for five days, I want to keep my goals and plans as straight-forward as possible. I intend to further develop my study skills, work harder as a student, and begin working towards things that will shape who I am in the future. I know that distinguished dog-training schools require excellent grades in high school, as well as a involvement in a plethora of extra-curricular activity. Being a dog trainer is not the only thing I want to do with my life, as I have a number of interests. I have many life goals, including obtaining an M.M and an M.D, meeting Zach Braff, and a number of other personal dreams.There have been multiple times in my life where I’ve changed my personal goals and completely switched my focus from one field to another, so even I can not say what field I will end up in or where I will live.

Six to eight years after high school I want to have graduated from either University of Tennessee Knoxville or University of North Carolina. I see myself with a major in music performance and a minor in biopsychology. While studying my courses I wish to work hand in hand with other dog trainers and eventually open up my own dog training facility where I will train pugs. In my spare time I will create music and study all pre-medical courses. Once I graduate college, I wish to attend the University of Tennessee School of Arts on a piano scholarship, where I can get my Masters of Music degree, then attend Emory University Medical School where I can obtain my Medical Degree. My mind has currently not been made as to what branch of medicine I will work within.

I have a number of life aspirations and things to do before I die. Among these goals includes creating an album that makes its way to any position on the Billboard charts, live in Tennessee, go camping for a number of weeks, save a life, improve my eyesight, and open up a shop in Atlanta with Nathan Fields. I even want to look like Ryan Gosling. I can not say or even imagine where my life will take me, and although I have many goals, I wish to see to it that every single one is accomplished, no matter the struggle or difficulties I face. Once I obtain both degrees, I will open up my dog training facility with my sister where we will offer the highest quality and care for training exclusively hand-selected pugs. As absurd as these goals may sound, I hope one day they will succeed. 

In conclusion, wether I end up with a degree in musical performance, biopsychology, or even dog training, my life will have been dedicated to achieving these aforementioned goals. I have always held a high standard for myself and for my goals, something that I pray will never change. There is no definite way I can tell you that I will succeed in each and every one of these, but I assure you I will not stop trying.
