I do not like my ending, how can I improve it?
I must thank my best friend Andrew for igniting my dream. Since birth, Andrew has gradually lost thirty percent of his hearing. The only solution to his problem was to wear a bulky, ugly hearing aid. As the only student in my school wearing a hearing aid, Andrew hated to be viewed as a senile hospital patient who must be treated with extra care and pity, so he returned this expensive device. Without the aid, Andrew had to put in more time and effort than others to earn perfect grades. In addition, his inability to hear subdued voices often resulted in several awkward situations. Had his efforts not been hampered by his hearing impairment, his achievements would have been even more outstanding.
I often wonder how many people are like Andrew, unable to reach their full potential because they're embarrassed to wear hearing aids. If the nearsighted are able to wear contact lenses in order to hide their disability, then surely the hearing impaired should have hearing aids that are equally unnoticeable. There is a great need for microscopic hearing aids. Through my best friend, I recognized the weight of my mission and developed an unyielding interest in engineering.
Engineering is the water of today's society. As water is necessary for life, engineering is required for the continuation of civilization in the twenty-first century. We humans have five essential needs: food, clothes, shelter, transportation, and communication. All of these demands depend extensively on engineering: from modern farming to food processing, textile manufacturing to clothes designing, villa building to skyscraper erecting, road constructing to bridge framing, and cell phone developing to internet maintaining. Because engineering can affect the world so drastically and in so many ways, I decide to devote my life to engineering and consider attending Cornell's School of Engineering to be the first step towards my goal.
Cornell Engineering offers hands-on research opportunities where I have the privilege to explore alongside of world-renowned, but unpretentious facilities. The numerous project teams and the cutting edge technologies will certainly aid me in my pursuit of inventing helpful devices such as affordable micro-hearing aids. Another aspect of Cornell Engineering that attracted me is the requirement of an introductory engineering course. This class will expose me to various fields of engineering and will present me a better understanding of my future career. In addition, the Kessler Fellows Program also intrigued me. I believe this program will turn my dreams into realities by shaping me into an effectual leader of the business world.
The superb quality of Cornell Engineering in all aspects has compelled me to call it my alma mater. I am cognizant that attending Cornell's School of Engineering will make me successful in accomplishing my dream.
