| I have chosen to take the most demanding courses offered at my high school, the International Baccalaureate program. I have been involved in many school activities: the student representative council, the Club Hope volunteer society, and our yearbook. I am involved in athletics, I play Softball and Volleyball for my school and for different club teams. I was awarded the Excellence in Leadership Trophy in June 2005. I have attended the Rock the Boat Leadership Conferences and Legion Leadership Camp. My most memorable experience has been the trip I took to Portugual and Spain in March 2006. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and it has sparked my interest to travel abroad in my future. I plan on attending Mount Allison University to get my Bachelor of Sciences concentrating in Biology. After this I plan to attend Medical School in order to emerge as a Pediatrician. |
