...Colorful life in university I have attended four students club. There are international club, Yoga club, Economics club and The basement club. The international club is my first club before the Student Activites Fair on Thursday, September 11. In fact , the first meeting of international club happened on Tuesday , September 9. In that meeting, I have met many friends who come from all over the world.

In international club, we can not only make many friends ,but also can develop our ability to the teamwork. For example, we can attend any other group in our club to take part in world competitions to get the opportunity to go to the Europe which is an amazing and exciting thing for me.

...could be sad or it could be happy. I have undergone many rites of passages but, the one that changed my life the most was flying into America when I was only seventeen year old. It was the Day of Eid-ul-Fiter, festival comes right after Ramadan (the ninth month of the Islamic calendar when Muslims fasting from sunrise to sunset). The day my dad called my uncle and told him that he won the lottery ticket. When our uncle told us that news immediately gave a shine on my mom face she becomes so excited. My mom told us that our dad will be going to America. We all were so happy to hear the new. After few months it was time to say Goodbye to my dad because he was leaving for America. When my dad arrived in America He send us money so that we can come live with him. Finally, the day came when my dad told that we will be coming to him soon. “Really, you mean to America” my sister Asma said that, OMG.” We became much more excited than anything else. I told all my friends that our whole family will be leaving Kashmir(a county a on the border of India and Pakistan)soon. My friends all become sad. I was so happy but was also sad because I didn’t want to leave my friends and cousins, all were so loving and caring. Before leaving Kashmir, Pakistan I thought to go over the places in my village and wanted to visit my relatives also. Next Morning I woke up and birds were making beautiful sounds in an open sky. My mind was mixed up; I wasn’t able to decide where I should go first. In the mean time...

...My Philosophy I may not have been in this world very long, but in the 18 years I have been here I have learned and been through many things that have dramatically changed my life. Most of those things were life-altering events that really made me question everything about myself. I learned how to deal with those events and to look at the positive in them. Everyone deals with obstacles or barriers in life but the thing is how does one overcome them and learn from them? My philosophy deals with the things thrown at us and how we react to them for the better of ourselves. Family Now the obstacles I’ve dealt with involve my family. Let me give you an overall consensus of how we act; whenever something doesn’t go how we want it and/or we disagree with someone we blow up. Now looking at that, you wouldn’t think we would deal with serious events in a positive way, well you’re wrong. In the past 2 years on my mom side we lost my aunt to breast cancer, and grandma to a severe blood clot; then I personally dealt with the loss of my dad due to liver failure. During those multiple losses we didn’t drift apart due to not knowing how to act; we came together and helped support each other mentally and emotionally. We may not have dealt with them the right way but we dealt with them how we saw fit by just letting our emotions out and talking about how we felt. Another way I know I dealt with them is to look back on the positive memories and then physically I used my crafting and art skills...

...music. The Miltons were prosperous enough that eventually they owned a second house in the country. Milton seems to have had a happy childhood. He spoke of his mother's "esteem, and the alms she bestowed." Of his father, Milton said that he "destined me from a child to the pursuits of Literature, . . . and had me daily instructed in the grammar school, and by other masters at home." Though the senior Milton came from a Catholic family, he was a Puritan himself. Milton's religion, therefore, was an outgrowth of family life and not something he chose at a later period in his maturity. Education Sometime, as early as age seven but perhaps later, Milton became a student at St. Paul's school, which was attached to the great cathedral of the same name. St. Paul's was a prestigious English public school — what would be called a "private school" in the U.S. Milton spent eight years as a "Pigeon at Paules," as the students were known, and came out a rather advanced scholar. He had studied the Trivium of Grammar, Rhetoric, and Logic and had probably been exposed to the Quadrivium of Mathematics, Geometry, Astronomy, and Music. He had also learned Latin well, was competent in Greek and Hebrew, had a smattering of French, and knew Italian well enough to write sonnets in it. The one language he did not study was English. Some of his language acquisition — Italian — came from private tutors hired by his father. Also at St. Paul's, the young Milton made a friendship that was among the closest...

But the progressive energy of the country was changed in April 1917, when Germany sank three U.S. ships, and America entered World War I. • On June 10, 1915 the organization was incorporated as Girl Scouts, Inc. under the laws of the District of Columbia • During World War I, girls learned about food production and conservation, sold war bonds, worked in hospitals, and collected peach pits for use in gas mask filters. • After the war came The Golden Eaglet, a feature film about Girl Scouting shown in theaters across the country, and The Rally (later called The American Girl), a monthly magazine for girls published by Girl Scouts. • A troop for physically challenged Girl Scouts was established. • Girls could earn more than 25 badges, including Child Nurse. • The Executive Board inaugurated a fund raising plan to relieve the burden on Juliette Gordon Low, who had been financing operations on her own (she sold her extremely valuable necklace of rare and matched pearls to support the organization!). • A National Director position was funded. • Girl Scouts established a system of national training schools for leaders. • By 1920, Girl Scouts was growing in...

...Study “Failure is only postponed success as long as courage 'coaches' ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.” —Herbert Kaufman Above Ground Design is a company built on one product called the Aerial Chair. Craig Hines brought the idea of the chair into action by using inheritance money he got. The chair was a design that he personally developed and manufactured in a small shop in Montana. He originally developed the Aerial Chair out of curiosity, and for his own personal use. Craig was passionate about his product and desperately hoped for it to be a market success. In fact, he was an architecture student in Montana State University until he dropped out of school and ended up in South Africa sewing hang gliding planes where the idea of the chair first came to his mind. After going back to the states, Craig started taking lessons in order to get a commercial pilot’s license. During that time, Craig started thinking about making the first step towards designing the chair and translating his dream and ambitious into an actual product. Basic drawings for the chair were made on a napkin and Craig based his design on the hang gliding planes that he used to do while working in South Africa and then the design was modified to fit the chair. Craig started designing the prototype of the chair and he kept changing his design until he reached the comfortability stage he was seeking. When Craig started making...

...should be focused and purposeful. Communicate a pattern of interests and skills that relate to the position in question. Consider your response to this question as a commercial that sells your autobiography. Provide an answer that includes information about where you grew up, where you went to school, your initial work experience, additional education and special training, where you are now, and what you intend to do next. One of the most effective ways to prepare for this question is to develop a 60-second biographic sketch that emphasizes a pattern of interests, skills, and accomplishments. Focus your response around a common theme related to your major interests and skills. Take, for example, the following response, which emphasizes computers. "I was born in Canton, Ohio and attended Lincoln High School. Ever since I was a teenager, I tinkered with computers. It was my hobby, my passion, and my way of learning. Like most kids I enjoyed computer games. When my folks gave me a computer as a reward for making honor roll my sophomore year, I mastered DOS, Windows, and WordPerfect within six months. I then went on to teach myself programming basics. By the time I graduated high school, I knew I wanted to study programming. From that point on, everything fell into place.

...like people everywhere, they have a stake in its outcome. From economic issues to Iran and the war in Afghanistan, the future of Europe is very much linked to the United States. And the two men who are vying to lead it for the next four years would seem to have very different views of the continent. "I think the president wants to turn us into a European-style welfare state, an entitlement nation. That model has not worked anywhere in the world," Romney said on the campaign trail. Barack Obama usually strikes a different tenor when he talks about the continent. "Each step points to the fact that Europe is moving towards further integration rather than breakup and that these problems can be resolved, and points to the underlying strength in Europe's economies," said Obama at the G20 summit last June. Senior fellow Xenia Dormandy of London's Chatham House says that difference in tone has been noticed on this side of the Atlantic. "Romney talks about a strong, exceptional America, a leading America. And he talks about increasing defense spending. All of those things are things that make Europeans a little bit nervous," noted Dormandy. "Contrarily, Obama, I call him a European leader. He's very consensus-driven. He's wanting to work in multilateral institutions, wanting to collaborate. All of these things play very, very well in the European setting. And that is part of the reason that polls indicate Europeans prefer President Obama by 75 percent or more over...
