Undergraduate / BIOLOGY; Queen's 2012 PSE/ My goals for my time there [14]

International program wise, i am just interested in the biology field experience abroad. Should i replace the 'international' part with the field experience?

I don't really have a specific field but i really am surprised by the amount of choices though!

Thank you very much!

Undergraduate / I am Indonesian, I am Filipino, and I am Chinese; Georgetown Personal Description [7]

It is wonderfully written. I highly doubt you will bore a reader with your story! The layout is simple, and i love the way you connected the bag of trail mix in both the introduction and the conclusion!

The revised version is definitely better though.

I was wondering if you could take a look at mine?
Thanks

Undergraduate / BIOLOGY; Queen's 2012 PSE/ My goals for my time there [14]

Being an Ontario Ranger, I learned that inspiration can be found anywhere. It can be exhilarating--mysterious even--to be constantly learning from our surroundings, especially within the natural world. Meeting countless individuals who have demonstrated their dedication to the natural world through efforts in ecological rehabilitation, I have come to realize that 'the study of organic life', biology, has been the place I turn to for my inspiration.

More than arcane knowledge hidden within moldy textbooks, for me biology is the bobbing of a canoe and soaring hawks. Biology is the feeling of elation when entering Gwaii Haanas National Park to study its rugged beauty and rich ecology. Biology is the catalyst for many of my aspirations. My role within the Macdonald Environmental Action Council and Live Green Toronto has inspired me to make a difference. It is my intention to continue making a strong environmental impact with my fervour for biology.

Ernest Hemingway once said, "It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end." During the open house event, I fell in love with Queen's campus and traditions. The international programs and array of biological disciplines was simply fascinating. It is my intention to apply my initiative to Queen's University community by taking part in student groups such as the AMS and Queen's Arts and Science Undergraduate Society. It is this 'journey' to Queen's where I expect to encounter new inspiration of all sorts--be it from professors, fellow students, or volunteering initiatives--that will lead me towards my career.

My adventure will not end after receiving my Bachelors degree, however. I believe that guided by a powerful passion and Queen's experience as my foundation, I will be able to achieve my ambition: to one day inspire future generations and make a difference in the world as a Queen's alumnus.

Do you think this is a better version? I'm not sure if i should include the last few words ('As a Queen's Alumnus')...

Thank you very much!

@Kitsumi
Where do you think i would be able to insert what makes Queen's...Queen's?
Also, do you think the conclusion is too vague too or atleast a little too cliche?

*Sorry, I ask a lot of questions out of curiousity and because i really want to improve on this essay

Undergraduate / What Waldo represents; UChicago- So where is Waldo really? [3]

Man, that is amazing. Perhaps you could have a smoother transition from your childhood experience into 'what is Waldo EXACTLY?'

Besides that, loved it and it definitaly made me think a little about my Waldo

In an essay of 300 words, or fewer (approximately 1950 characters with spaces), write about your goals for your time at Queen's University and beyond.

I am still unsure about the conclusion and the second last paragraph...it seems a little too cliche
Is there anything else i can do to edit this?

Inspiration can be found anywhere. It can be exhilarating--mysterious even--to be constantly learning from our surroundings, especially within the natural world. Throughout my experiences, I have come to realize that 'the study of organic life', biology, has been the place I turn to for my inspiration.

For me, biology is not arcane knowledge hidden within moldy textbooks. Biology is the bobbing of a canoe and soaring hawks. Biology is the feeling of elation when entering Gwaii Haanas National Park-- Canada's 'tropical rainforest' -- to study its rugged beauty and rich ecology. Biology is the catalyst for many of my aspirations. Undoubtedly, I want this passion to one day inspire future generations and make a difference in the world as a Queen's alumnus.

Ernest Hemingway once said, "It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end." Countless individuals who have demonstrated their dedication to the natural world through efforts in ecological rehabilitation during my 'journey' as an Ontario Ranger, and my role within the Macdonald Environmental Action Council, and Live Green Toronto has inspired me to make a difference. As a deeply involved student, I would like to contribute to Queen's dynamic atmosphere through organizations such as Queen's Arts and Science Undergraduate Society. I would like continue making a strong environmental impact within the community. It is the 'journey' here where I want to encounter inspirations of all sorts, be it from professors, fellow students, or volunteering with the Alma Mater Society.

My adventure will not end after receiving my Bachelors degree, however. I strive to fulfill my childhood aspiration: to understand what life is, and to be able to make the best out of it. I believe that guided with a powerful passion, with Queen's experience as my foundation, I will be able to achieve all my goals and more.
