Graduate / Goals to implement; being professional means being successful [5]

Future plan in Korea or another country after study in Korea

Since I would like to be an employee at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs one of my short time goals is to get master's degree at Kookmin University. Graduate schools of KU will provide me the prospect to fully immerse myself in the sphere of international relations.

The most significant reasons to go to graduate school are more for the professional skills I will gain, the personal development I will undergo and the valuable connections I will make with fellow graduate students, academics and locals. I am a kind of a person who wants to contribute to the world's and Malaysian-Korean relationship's development. That is why I would like to have knowledge of my subject inside-out.

Getting a master degree through KGSP program will possibly brighten my future. I want to be a competitive employee with excellent academic background and wide worldview. Besides getting skilled academically, studying abroad is significant for a future diplomat. My future goal is to enhance economic, cultural and foreign ties between Malaysia and Korea tightly. Korea can be a good role model for Malaysia in terms of economic development and expanding impact on close related areas. I believe that Asian states should work closely with each other in order to get beneficial results.

The primary aim of the desired department is to educate students in the basic theories and practices of politics, both domestic and international, so as to prepare them to take on leading positions and roles in the public sector.

As well as being a hard studying학생 I am eager to be an active participant of extracurricular activities such as being a member of student council or diverse clubs where I can demonstrate myself as a unique personality and an open-minded Malaysian girl.

I will make it a priority to make Korean friends in order to help me practice my written and spoken Korean skills as well as and the leader to keep in touch in future.

Pursuing my graduate studies my desire is to ensure that I could compete in today's market. Moreover, I want to be able to contribute to my field of study. To know what are my skills and interest and where my skills and interest match is the right sphere for considering my future goal. After getting my Master's degree my Professional aim is to acquire a spot in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Having a graduate degree will assist me in establishing career of diplomat as far as our Ministry requires master degree. It will be a pro for accepting me.

I feel that I am well armed to accomplish my dreams because of my positive attitude, commitment, and decisiveness. By following through with these plans I will have a successful, enjoyable life that will be rewarding in the long run.

Actually after graduation I am planning to return to my home country for serving in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. University which I am applying for are the strongest in terms of education. I am supposed to have great conditions for making my research without any obstacles and needs.

@Holt
still my self-introduction essay
Looking at the mirror I revise myself when I was 6 years old child. Looking back you think that you did not understand anything but you did. I try to explain my statement further in this essay. Besides the fact that money always was tight for my family while I was growing up. I never was unhappy. Support and love are things which were given me fully by my family members. None of the decisions made without consultations together. I am really proud of growing up in such friendly family. There is a Kazakh proverb states 'the love to country begins from the love to home'. I guess this was the foundation for my future decision-making. Then as soon as I went to school I found out that most of people surround me blamed government for its unconscious decisions, for inappropriate educational system. Friends and teachers always compare with other successful states with excellent social programs. In such situations I always tried to protect government from accuses as far as I understood that our government is young and has great opportunities in future to flourish. I was wondering how people were not aware of government's hard work. I found myself at the point that wherever and whenever I heard accuses towards authority I tried to write down the notes which I would like to alter in the future. I saw myself as someone with power who is able to assist citizens of our state, who will work for the sake of nation and sacrifice everything for the Kazakhstan's prosperity. I believe that these points served as the first basis to see myself as a diplomat.

Then the fate made everything by itself to confirm my first perception in relation to my future profession. During study at high school I had a chance to meet an US diplomat. He was promoting American educational programs and America itself and the atmosphere of that meeting was completely higher than everything I had ever been before. Following this, I worked extremely hard left years of studying at school as long as I needed to get excellent marks at final exams for getting governmental scholarship. The competition for scholarship within specialty of international relations was really tough. Luckily, I entered one of the best universities in Kazakhstan. The university life again confirmed my interest in international affairs. I became an active participant of conferences concerning the global problems and visits with ambassadors. I was wondering how the fate of each country and millions of people are on the hands of some diplomats. A diplomat has a power to decide whether he will give a chance to the state to prosper or die? I wanted and want to be that one who will be able to protect its citizens as long as I have all personal characteristics of diplomat.

Passing time I was on my way to home at train when I saw a foreigner lying next to me. We began to talk. That man was a professor of international relations at Australian university. Our conversation mostly touched economic and political spheres. He gave me his point of view concerning our political system and president, some words about corruption. He shared my opinion about diplomats' responsibilities. This event was quiet informative and useful. At the end he cheered me up for going till the end at my beginning.

Thus, Foreign Policy became my professional joy while my personal joy has always been music. My addiction to music appeared since childhood. I finished a musical school seven years ago with getting major on the dombyra, Kazakh national instrument. It is interesting that even I found music as my friend I have never thought about being a singer. Music gives strength and motivation to work hard on other parts of my life. The time when I introduced with K-pop music was the period when people sent music through Bluetooth due to the unavailability of internet. Thus, I became to be keen on Korean hip-hop music. I became familiar with such singers as G-dragon who composed his songs by, J.Y.Park. When I had hard times during my preparation to final exams at school I found support in B2st's "When the door closes" and "On rainy days" songs. It is quiet strange that I cannot listen to English songs for a long period I am getting tired of them while Korean songs are always pleasure to listen to me. I am thankful to songs that really motivated me and were my lullaby for a long period of time. From the first time I did not feel like it is a different language even if I know none of Korean. I felt like I understood the lyrics.

Being interested by K-pop I would like to know the meaning of the lyrics. Therefore as soon as I moved in Astana I decided to take courses of Korean language at Korean Cultural Centre. I thus became an active member there. I even took some cooking classes. I began to adore Korean lifestyle. Now I just want to dive deep into Korean vibe with feeling it.

Being a part of Korean Government Scholarship Program is magnificent. I know that KGSP opens a plenty of opportunities for me. As far as Korean Government Scholarship Program provides us with dozens of university choices it gives us a chance to be accepted to top universities of South Korea that will make us grow and improve our abilities. I have never met KGSP alumni in Kazakhstan however, from internet resources I know that KGSP create really appropriate conditions for scholars for conducting their research and study without any need. It will be an honor for me to be a scholar of your program as far as I am tolerant, skilled, flexible student. I hope that this program prepare me as a competitive employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kazakhstan and future diplomat as well.

Hi guys, as well as other forummates i want to take part in KGSP. This is my self-intoduction letter! Please, check it. I think it is not enough but i do not know what to add.

to become a specialist in the international relations

I do not know when or how I decided to be a specialist in sphere of international relations. Maybe the strong will appeared because of permanent discussions concerning the government's actions and diplomatic relations of Kazakhstan among my family members. Probably, at that time I thought that if you have power you would be able to change and influence on the lives of people. Or maybe the desire to become a diplomat broke out after meeting the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the United States of America during rewarding ceremony of volunteer projects. No matter how, the result is evident. After couple of hard working years to get government scholarship I finally achieved it. I felt completed. I entered one of the best universities in Kazakhstan. I moved from little town to big city. My life changed completely new friends, new surroundings, new place of stay. I knew that university times should be the best one in all prospects that was the reason why after entering university I immediately became a member of the biggest university organization. I was as an active student as possible. Even if I was busy with all of these new things I began to notice emptiness. I was not satisfied with all my achievements made. I guess the reason lied on the loss of my goal. During the chase of all new things I forgot about my primary aim, aim of being a diplomat. However, I believe that fate always send you some tips during your life journey. Fortunately, the hint for me appeared on time I met a person who affected me. The situation happened when I was on my way to home after some weeks of university enrolment. He was a professor of international relations at one of the Australian universities. We talked much with him. I briefly narrate him my biography. Thus, most conversation was about the current situation in Kazakhstan and development paths, our structure of government and our president. He was as a remainder for me about my desire to flourish my country and to become a skilled diplomat. Following this, I started being engaged into activities concerning international relations.

Actually, besides having new friends there was also one big advantage of being activist I found out my interest to learn Korean language. I suppose that mostly I was affected by students from Korea who lived with me in dormitory. They were so friendly and warm-hearted students. We spent a lot of times together. Korean language seems very pleasant to hear. Also, they introduce me with Korean culture, games. Finally, I was so keen on Korean things so that I began visiting Korean language courses holding at Korean Cultural Centre. I even took some cooking courses there. Korean Cultural Centre revealed that Asian people are close to each other. I like the thing that most of us honor our traditions and lifestyle despite the factors of globalization. I am sure that adjusting to Korea will not be hard for me.

Being a part of Korean Government Scholarship Program is magnificent. I know that KGSP opens a plenty of opportunities for me. As far as Korean Government Scholarship Program provides us with dozens of university choices it gives us a chance to be accepted to top universities of South Korea that will make us grow and improve our abilities. I have never met KGSP alumni in Kazakhstan however, from internet resources I know that KGSP create really appropriate conditions for scholars for making their research and study without any need. It will be an honor for me to be a scholar of your program as far as I am tolerant, skilled, flexible student. I hope that this program prepare me as a competitive employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kazakhstan and future diplomat.
