My dead lineis nov 15th so i looking forward with some last minute help . I hope my writing is not so booring .

What r the three most important things you want the Bucknell faculty and the students to know about you ?( up to 200 words each )

1. I wanted to be a story writer. Whenever I had leisure time I used take a pen and a note book and begin to write. I used to create all these fantasy stories. However, ever time I used to give my writing for publication in the annual school magazine; it hardly used to get published. I used to be told that they were good but not so remarkable to be published. After having put so much effort in each of my stories, every rejection used to make me sad. However, I never let it be the reason to quite writing stories. Every time my moral was down I used to consol my self by remembering a quote by B.C Forbes-"History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered their heart breaking obstacles before they triumphed .They won because they refused to be discouraged by their defeat. ". I still write stories. In fact my stories have become even more interesting and deals with mature subjects. Now, my stories occasionally get published in the local newspaper .I hope to write a novel some day.

2. After the high school ended there wasn't much thing to do. So I decided to look for some kind of volunteer or a paid job. I went to UNIFEM (United Nations Development fund for women) office to ask whether there was any vacancy for the internship. In the first visit I was not much entertained. There were hundreds of eager bachelor graduates who used apply for the internship every year .Only few were given a chance .And I was just high school graduate. I was told that the office would inform if there was any vacancy. This was a dream job and I did not want to let go. After three weeks, I got a call that Mrs. Saru Joshi Shrestha(Deputy head of UNIFEM) wanted to see me . When I met her she told me that she was impressed by the level of interested that I had shown towards the internship and she liked my sample report too. I was told to join the intern team form the next week. All of my patience and faith on myself had paid off. Besides, it taught me a valuable lesson- never give up even when there is a negative probability because the future is always uncertain.

3. When I was in high school we used to have school assembly once a week on Monday.The assembly used to start at sharp 9 am along with the arrival of the school principal and the student council. The whole hall used to become pin drop silent as the school prefects used to stand on the stage. Ever time I saw them on the stage I used to dream being one of them. My dream was soon turned in to reality when I was nominated for the next batch of student council by the school administration. It was when I became a school prefect I came to realize that being a leader wasn't as easy as standing in front of everyone in the school assembly . We had to be responsible for the welfare of the student in the school and be an example to them .There were lots of compromises we had to make to ensure other got equal chance. And the toughest of all was to maintain trust of the students as well as the school administration. Now, when I remember the last time I stood on the stage in the school assembly I think, after all the effort I had put on to it, I kept the pride of that position.

really liked all three. make sure you read through and make sure you add your own personal touch rather than say the cliche "never give up" kind of thing

remember they want to know what makes you unique so be yourself. hoped that helped if not sorry. read mine please!!!
