Essay Questions

What is your most memorable childhood experience?I will never forget the first time that my family went to Disneyland. It was just my brother and I and my parents. There was so much to see and having the real life Mickey and Minnie walking around blew my mind. Great food, lots of laughs, and of course the rides.
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why?I identify with my step-father. He taught me the importance of appearance, hard work, and friendships. He is the reason that I have achieved what I have been able to with my life. Not so much as a mentor, but rather a figure to emulate.
What character traits do you admire in an individual?I admire determination more than anything else. A lazy genius will accomplish less than a motivated fool.
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?One year for Halloween I went as an old man. My mom found some temporary hair dye, which worked well for the night, but ended up leaving my hair bleach blond with streaks of brown. My mom decided that it was time that I got a buzz cut before the next day of school.
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why?I would love to spend more time in Europe. I had a fantastic time during a medical mission trip to Romania and I would absolutely love to spend more time experiencing some of the great sites of Western History.
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them?I would like to pass on my passion to help others. I feel that it is a duty that we all share to make this planet the best place for future generations.
