I have a dream

This isn't Martin Luther King writing this essay, but this is a writer who is influenced by Luther King's character and his insistence to achieve his dream. As Luther king had a dream and he did his best using every single skill to achieve it, I have a dream which is attached significantly to this scholarship and I'll do my best using every single skill I've and every chance the scholarship offers me to achieve it. For me there is no a GREAT or perfect participant but the participant who seeks for perfection, and this one is who will take advantage of the benefits and won't waste any single moment without making it a step towards his dream. And also who have the skills that enable and qualify him to live and benefits from participating in the scholarship.

As a stubborn personality, raising in a conservative society such is the Egyptian one which doesn't give women the appreciation they deserve and considers them as a followers for men and looks for them an inferiority look as opposed to men, all those issues grow in me the decision to set "breaking this stereotype about women" as a DREAM that I will achieve. I accepted the challenge to prove to the society that women isn't a follower and she is strong enough to be independent. And since studying abroad for a whole semester without anyone of my family while I'm undergraduate will be a conclusive evidence about women's ability to independence and self-reliance, I applied for UGRAD and this will be a great motive for me to be a good participant.

In addition to be the best chance for me to win my challenge, UGRAD is also the best environment to achieve my goal to study political science. Because as a Journalism student who aims to specialize in political journalism after graduating, studying political science is a must to improve my qualifications. And USA is the best place to study politics because of its political history which is rich of the democracy successes.

My desire to work in political field comes after the Egyptian revolution in 2011, I discovered my passion for politics during the revolution as I was following up every update happens and I was interested in reading political analysis for those updates. At this point, the desire to study political science generated in me. But for a reason or another I failed to join the faculty of Political Science and I wasn't able to study it as a major, so I decided to study Journalism and specialize in political Journalism so I'll be able to work in the field I dreamt for. Therefore, the chance to study political science in this scholarship won't only help me in my career, but also it's my passion, and this will be a big motivation for me to appreciate the chance that is given to me and be a great participant.

Since I'm interested in knowing different cultures and dealing with people from various races as it improves my personality, and I had an experience in dealing with people own different backgrounds, beliefs and mentalities as I was working in a liberal association and this learnt me how to deal with different ideologies in my country which includes Islamists and Communists which are so far from my own beliefs, this qualifies me to be a great participant in this program that includes people from all over the world will live and share moments with each others.

As a good learner who learnt how to learn in "learning how to learn" Course from UC San Diego through a MOOC, So I will be able to learn a lot of things in and out the academic sessions during the one semester I will take in the USA, and by learning about the new places I'll see and the new cultures I'll know about, and by participating in extracurricular and volunteering in the fields I Interest such as women empowerment to convey the experience to me home country. All those things will make me take advantages from the program to the maximum extent and will make me close to be a great participant in the UGRAD.
