Undergraduate / Global UGRAD program - a different culture experience, interchanging ideas, products, and influence [4]
Hi guys, how you're all doing well. I have written an essay of the following question
"The Global UGRAD Program is for young leaders committed to serving their home communities. Why would you be a great participant in the Global UGRAD Program?"
Please if anyone would check to see if my essay is alright.
PS: There are two essays here. The first one is mine, second is of my girlfriends.
First Essay(mine)
Ever since high school I always wanted to do my undergrad abroad where lied the possibility of meeting new people and exploring a new culture. I am an only child to a very hard working pair of individuals. My father is a businessman and my mother, a school teacher; the two most important people in my life.
I am someone who does not like to party. Rather than suffering from a hangover I write poems and short stories along with portrait pictures I take, which gives it a narrative to be amused of, and I love to produce music. I find solace in doing something productive in my spare time, something that can help me be more skillful and give me joy. As Franklin D.Roosevelt would say "Happiness is not in the mere possession of money: it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort."
The first piece of writing I ever scribbled was at the age of fourteen. My parents were always fond of my writing and nine years and half a thousand poems later, I got a job as a Feature Writer for The Weekly Newage Youth. Finding a job and getting through university in Bangladesh is very challenging and I was able to contribute to the family as well as my tuition fees.
I am currently in my third year (seventh semester), doing my major in Public Relations and minor in Business, from University Of Liberal Arts Bangladesh. A major problem in Bangladesh is that people have a vague idea of how PR works. Writing for the weekly has helped me meet people who are also concerned about this.
I applied to the Global UGRAD exchange program for two things. One, to experience a different culture, meet new people and understand their ideas and inspirations and cultivate a relationship with them; Let them know about a small country of barley 164.7 million people known as Bangladesh. As Tyler Cowen would say "Real cultural diversity results from the interchange of ideas, products, and influences, not from the insular development of a single national style."
Another reason is to learn more about Public Relations and get a knowledge about business too so I can come back to my home country and let others know what Public Relations really stands for and how important and convenient it is for organizations to adapt to it. I want to change the perspective in my country by establishing my own PR firm, which Bangladesh massively lacks.
I don't intend on staying in USA. Being the only child I need to look after my father and mother and build a home I promised them. I don't want to live the American dream rather live a life of happiness by bringing about a much required change to my country and enjoy a nice evening stroll with my old folks.
