Undergraduate / Acidity/ pH Williams Special Supplement Essay: [3]

Williams Supplement:

Were pH an expression of personality, what would be your pH and why? (Feel free to respond acidly! Do not be neutral, for that is base!) - Inspired by Joshua Harris, Class of 2016

I think I have some ideas but just a question how can I talk about my acidity? is it by past personal experiencs? Fantasy?
And how can I be basic? Bascity ? I don't get the meaning?
Please help me!!

BTW this is a first draft:

People have opinions, ideas and views toward and thus they built their personalities upon these perceptions. They may react violently, peacefully or maybe neutrally. Personally, I think that personality should be extremely elastic because flexibility is a necessary ingredient in life. I see that my pH is variable when coping with different situations and circumstances.

When it comes to hard situation such as an innovative experience, my pH is extremely acid exactly equal to 1. Realizing such an expensive and time-consuming experiment requires this sharpness in personality because this situation is not easy to handle, as it affects the whole community and ultimately humankind. One should not underestimate his role that's why fulfilling successfully fragile tasks including observation, interpretation, analyze, drawing conclusion must be potentially precise and accurate. In such a vital situation, my pH should be no more than 1 unless I will finish by failing : losing money and throwing hard-work in the wind.

As pH mustn't follow my mood, I should maintain my pH by listening to the voice of truth because If I mix acid expression of personality based on logical thinking with basic thoughts my intuition neutralized. But, being neutral is not such a sound standing. So to be well-qualified and profesional person I must always take sides whether it is acid or basic but never neutral because it's a demonstration of passiveness, poor-vision and unawareness.

Williams Supplement:

Imagine yourself in a tutorial at Williams. Of anyone in the world, whom would you choose to be the other student in the class, and why?

As a tutorial at Williams, I believe that my class would be curious, Analytical, and creative. And so it will be critical if I stand with a group of people filled with the desire and will to pursue and excel within Science. I imagine that one of them can be Nicola Tesla, a student who best suited to those skills and surroundings.

I would say that the perfect partner to me is Nicola Tesla, a person who perceives the scientific method as a system of asking questions, making speculations, observing and drawing conclusions. Tesla, as a pioneer classmate, will instruct me in order to better understanding of research. To this end, Tesla who is naturally inquisitive has an advantage, as he will, in a sense, help me to apply the scientific method to what I see and observe with little prompting. As a future physicist, this inclination to ask questions about observations can help me in scientific pursuits, especially when questions lead to further questions and begin opening up new avenues of investigation. Tesla The "mad scientist", renowned for his achievements and showmanship, will be a valuable pillar in a successful future class because he is the kind of curious who conform exactly to scientific approach.

Physics Study

"For the Love of Physics" by Professor of Physics Walter Lewin in is one of the best books that I ever come across and one of the best inspiration lectures that I ever watched. As I began attending high-school, Lewin's lectures transform my life as they made physics not only accessible but fun, whether swinging with a pendulum ball to prove that mass has no effect on period, beating a student to create electric charges, making a battery out of cans and water or explaining the principle of conservation of energy by exposing himself in the path of 50-kilos-wreaking ball. In For the Love of Physics, Lewin took me to a fabulous trip, opened my eyes as never before to the wonders of physics while simply reading a book. His amazing ability to reveal the beauty and power that nature encapsulates led my way to the path of scientific exploration. I began with simply imitating his experiments and then I raised my own questions and answered the same questions myself. so that I could enjoy science and entertainment.

I asked myself: Why can we snorkel no deeper than about one foot below the surface? Why are the colors of a rainbow always in the same order? Why pendulum ball have the same period whatever its mass? How can a flea be strong enough to pull a book? Walter Lewin always entertains me as he edifies by using clear, simple and straightforward explanations to phenomena that I am familiar with. His book was the rare gem that changed the way I see the world. It brought me to observe, analyze and problems in daily life as a scientific matter, worth studying as more than a simple task.

I will never forgot the book that enhanced my spirit of curiosity and innovation, "Creativity " by professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi ,that include interviews with 91 groundbreaking individuals, including Nobel Prize winners. I dove into this this masterpiece that unveiled the common qualities of science, technology and economy pioneers and give me a quenched answer about what does it take to be a successful creative professional. This book gave me a pure perspective about how effort, hard-work and serious curiosity can be efficient to turn amateur intuitions into gigantesque projects. I get so revolutionary ideas that become as a chore in my life. First, is to take criticism as an advantage not as a setback. If people challenge your pursuit , take the chance prove to them the contraire , increase your effort and devote more of attention to your exciting work."Second, is boosting complex thinking by bringing the entire range of human possibilities within myself . Third, which is the most important is that one should capture moments or opportunities that make life worth living which can be materialized by the Euphoria after a successful experiment or a founding so that one can enrich not only scientific field but also go farther by giving a value to people's life.

These books by its globalist view regarding scientific field is completely an in-depth analysis of creativity and science. Through I understand why creativity needs to be cultivated as scientific entertainment and is necessary for the future of The U.S, if not the world.
