Though it makes me sound like a spoiled brat, I love to only have the best things in life.  My reasoning for this is that as a child, we had to scrimp and save everything, so there was nothing left over for the simple things in life such as a snack.

So, it should come as no surprise that once I finished high school that I would attend some form of post secondary education.  I decided that I would be interested in attending hair school, but I knew it would take some time to figure out the difference between one beauty academy and the next.

Thankfully, the Internet provided the perfect medium for finding the best beauty school in the county and hopefully I will be able to attend a class there after after the new year.  I can’t wait to do something that I want to do for a change.

I never considered teaching others about landscaping designs as a career, but somehow this is the job that I ended up with.  Now, I am not complaining as it is something that I love, but nonetheless it was very unexpected.

It all started a number of years ago when I wrote a book on landscaping design ideas that became very popular, very quickly.  I wouldn’t say that it was a revolutionary book by any means, but the public response was very overwhelming - so much so that I received international recognition for my writing.

So, here I am, years later, teaching a class on landscaping.  Today we will be covering lantana care and how they can change the ambience of your yard.  I haven’t taught this class before, but if you count the number of people who have registered, it looks like the turnout will be amazing.

Well, I better put the finishing touches on the presentation and get ready - the class starts in about ten minutes.

“Okay, everyone, here’s what I want you to search for,” you say to your 20-odd students at the Whispering Hills Senior’s Center where you are teaching “Introduction to the World Wide Web — Searching Savvy.”

“The first search term is “limousine hire.” You spell “limousine” four times before everyone finally types it in correctly. Then you wait another minute for two people to add “hire” into the search box.

You’re already ten minutes behind schedule. You’d planned to have them search for “limo hire Kent” and “limo hire Surrey,” but they’ve already complained about the verb come after the noun. You pick one and explain — again — why this kind of word order is best for online searches. One man and two women argue with you about illiterate searches.

Finally, you show them how to save their searches. This takes you to the end of the class. You head home shaking your head, mentally revamping your lesson plans. Your 5-week course just got expanded to ten.

When I was going to medical school I was working closely with a surgeon who specialized in carpal tunnel surgery. It was a field that I was interested in going into and it was suggested that I spend some time with him during his surgeries to find out if that was really what I wanted to do.

During the same time, I was given an assignment to find out how many cases there were of carpal tunnel in Orange County. The number that I came up with was quite astounding, but it did not surprise the surgeon at all. In fact, he told me that there were many more cases than what I had come up with because some people would never seek medical advice on the condition.

I really enjoyed my time working with him and he became one of my greatest mentors. I did end up specializing in the field and I did my internship with him. I still see him quite often and I seek out his advice when I am looking for a second opinion.

When I was in high school I was absolutely thrilled when I got Mrs. Gonzalez as my Spanish teacher. She was amazing and she had a great success rate with her students. It was almost as if she knew exactly what each of us needed and she was there to give it to us.

She had studied at Spanish School Antigua Guatemala and she told us that if we ever had the opportunity to go and learn there that we would have such a love for the language. She inspired me to become a Spanish teacher myself.

Although the opportunity has never come up for me to go and study at her beloved school, I am still hoping to one day visit there. She has since gone back home to South America and I would love to have the chance to go and see her one day and let her know just how big of an impact that she had on my life. I am sure she would be proud.

When I was in high school and preparing for the rest of my life, I knew that I wanted a degree in English.  I thought that there was no better choice than to go back to the homeland and study English in England.  I got my parents blessing and decided to look further into what it would take to make this happen.

I talked to my guidance counselor who gave me a list of good UK English language schools and I started the application process.  It did not take long before I was accepted at one of the schools, and I was so happy as this school had been my first choice.

I remember being so nervous embarking on this new chapter of my life as I was going to be so far from home.  It did not take me long to find my place there and to this day, I think it was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.  It is now the place that I call home.

I have been working on my final psychology essay now for one week and am really not making any progress.  Not only has this been frustrating for me, but it is worth 30% of my final mark and I cannot afford to get a low mark on it as I haven’t done very well on the exams.

I have toyed with the idea of going to buy essays online, but I don’t feel right doing that.  I think I would be especially guilty knowing that I got my degree without doing the work myself.  Sure, no one would know that it was the truth, but deep down it would haunt me forever.

Instead, I’ve decided to take advantage of the essay assistance offered by the University and see if they can help me out.  All I really need is someone to jog my creativity and it the ball rolling.  I think I will check them out after my next class and see what they can do for me.  I just have to get this essay done really soon.

My best friend went to college straight out of high school.  I on the other hand, decided to work for a year before going back to school.  I figured, that this would help to pay my tuition.  Since my friend was a year ahead of me, she said that I could buy the dissertations that she had written the year before.

I decided going into school that I was not going to suckered into buying a thesis instead of writing it..  I told her this and she laughed at me knowing that I had no idea how hard this year was going to be and how little time I would have to sit and work on essays for every single class that I took.

In a way, she was right.  I did have no idea how hard it would be, but I was still determined to do all of my own writing including the research proposal that I will have to do.  In the end, she ended up with far better grades than I, but I ended up being smarter.  I learned more and feel that I am a better person because of it.

When I was in college, I really hated doing assignments.  I didn’t pay thousands of dollars in tuition to do homework (at least in my opinion), so it for ways to get around to it myself.  At the time, I knew a guy that you could give any essay topics that you needed written and he would do it for you in three days.  This prices were very reasonable and he knew his stuff.

Now that I’ve moved on from college, I have decided to give today’s students the same advantages that I had when I was a kid.  So I’ve created a firm that supplies custom essays to college-level students so that they can enjoy college and not spend their whole life doing homework.

Some examples of our clients included the gentleman who needed a philosophy essay written and a girl that just didn’t have enough time to read any "stupid English poetry".  We cater to the needs of the student body and have many satisfied customers.

As I sit here on the floor of my bedroom, working on my sociology essay that is due tomorrow, I can’t help but feel little depressed that all I seem to be doing these days is studying and doing research for term paper after term paper.

It seems like I have a new term paper due every week and researching and writing the papers take up all of my spare time when I am not in class or I’m at my part-time job. I feel as though I have no time for my friends and by the time this is over I will probably have no friends left.

Last week I had a management essay due and that one was not so bad, but I have this one that I’m working on due tomorrow and in three weeks I have a big arts essay due that is worth almost half of the grade I will receive in the class.  I have been working on that essay for over a month and I am sure I will spend every waking moment working on it over the next few weeks.
