The thought of helping other people overcome the fear of theiror self-esteem became so real to me the day that I got myoff two years later. After a long thought, I finally came to a(n)that I wanted to do my senior exit project on orthodontics. I am in the of doing my project now and I cannot wait to see the wonderfulthat I’m going to achieve. In the long run, I know it will be a great to me down the road, opening doors to mypath. Another goal in my life is to fly to newand go where no one else hasto go before. I am a big leader at my school and I try to do new things that arein order to make things successful. I try to reach to the highest in order to make every event and idea “with a bang!” I also want to do things to the world somewhere down the road. After seeing friends go into , I have thought about being a missionary(传教士) in a third world country for a couple of summers after I from the high school.

I think more people reached out and conquered their dreams to help other people achieve theirs, this world would be a whole lot better of a place.
