Thanks guys!!
The emergence of the internet catalyzed the world's inevitable globalization. The life my generation experience is much difference than that of the past. In order for a person to lead in his field of study, not only is he expected to be intelligent, but also someone who is able to cooperate internationally for success. Learning from Johns Hopkins University more about the global culture, I want to be a person who encourages global cooperation.
I choose to pursue international studies because I have come to treasure diversity from experiences that provoked, and challenged my narrow worldview. Having lived in four different countries, and having gone to ten different schools, I have naturally interacted with people from different parts of the world. And they started to broaden my worldview. People from the remotest places of the world taught me that either with chopsticks or a fork, eating could be done. I learned that with Chinese herbal medicine, or an American pill, back pains can be remedied. I realized that slurping during meals, and saying "excuse me" when leaving the dining table are both table manners.
When I experienced other people and their cultures, I saw the immense differences. When differences existed, I was compelled to think about them and examine how I and my culture differed. I observed how others dealt with a situation, and I continually compared and contrasted with the approaches I had taken. I estimated and measured, neglected or accepted the different ways. Diversity helped me to find the best approaches to a problem by thinking flexibly from many different angles. Because diversity provided the opportunity to search for the best approach not just by myself, but with others, I began to even more treasure diversity.
Within the international community, the diversity is abundant. Within international studies, infinite opportunities await. Because studying international studies enhances my understanding of the global community, and its constituents with whom I will work, I passionately anticipate pursuing international studies at Johns Hopkins University.
