I have learned to explore my accomplishments and awards. I now know I need to become more involved in clubs for the purpose of experiences.&nbsp; While looking through my past works I chose the pieces of writing I felt most proud of and I had the highest grades on.&nbsp; My travels have helped me learn about the world and learn about people of different cultures. My travels have helped me to understand the background of my peers and better understand the world. Volunteering, especially going on mission trips, has helped me to become a more understanding person. Volunteering teaches me to be thankful for everything I have and helps me to understand the minorities of our country. Working this past summer has taught me the value of hard work and dedication. Also, working in the food service industry has taught me to appreciate all of the effort that goes into a meal in a restaurant.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Work: I worked my first summer busing tables and filling the salad bar at The Seneca Lodge.
