My high school career at has been very successful. I am very proud of myself and the accomplishments I have achieved. I have actively participated in many school and community programs such as art, band, and National Honor Society.
For the past seven years, I have been playing the French horn. This past winter I was accepted in the UW-Oshkosh French Horn Honors Quartet and the Wisconsin State Honors Band. I was able to achieve these accomplishments through hard work, diligent practice habits, and assistance from my private horn instructor on the UWGB music staff.
Although I have achieved many successes in the past three years, there was a point where I could not get past the number of failures I had encountered during that time. My lack of self-esteem and insecurities about myself caused my grades to become considerably low. .
I began to receive a lot of encouragement from my family and friends. I also went to counseling sessions. I have discovered a lot about who I am as a person and who I want to become. That is why I would like to attend. I have set goals that I would like to attain like receive a quality education and gain all there is to offer as a college student.
I would very much like to major in the field of history in hopes that someday I can teach at the secondary level. I am very passionate about music and playing the French horn. I would like to continue playing in college and maybe at some point minor in musical performance. .
If I am accepted into, during my four years I would like to become involved in the diverse activities that college has to offer, such as playing for the Phoenix Pep Band. I want to experience campus life and all that it has to offer.
I am ready to step up to the challenges that college presents. Due to the hardships I have endured in high school, I feel I have become a more well-rounded, focused individual.
Attending the is one of the goals that I have developed for myself.
