live in Pakistan-a country destroying itself with bombs,guns andgovernments' blabber to find justifications for what it is going through;acountry where a former president is murdered in public,where the nation'sconstitution and parliament are suspended at the same time,and where the voiceof a common man is unheard.
Since the last few years, I had aspired to become a doctor.The idea of"scalpels," "opened chests" and "sutures" had always intrigued me.And then ithappened!The recent unprecedented events in my country wiped off the dust ofdisillusionment from my eyes;I lost my will to become a doctor.However,theturmoil in the country led me towards newspapers and news channels,and hencePolitics.
As I involved myself into politics,I realized that it isall-embracive-wielding its way over social and economic life-it is theomnipotent of Pakistan.It can mobilize public opinion,gear up propagandamachinery,make or repeal laws and what not.Backed up by public opinion,supportedby the majority of the legislators,armed with the means to keep the people in astate of ignorance,political power crosses the limits of dictatorialpowers.Political power,like the most powerful intoxicant,makes the persons inpower to forget social ethics,political morality and obligations.
Most of the learned youth in this country consider Politics to be "a refugefor the scoundrels" and this derogatory remark may be true if we look at thedeceptive and degenerated type of politicians indulging in a dirty game.Allthese political parties are votaries of democracy,but the way they conductthemselves inside their own parties is nothing but senselessauthoritarianism.Therefore a very few students choose to pursue Politics as aprofession,but what they don't realize is that if we don't take a stand thesystem can never be changed.Thus,I want to study Politics so I can come back tomy country and contribute what little I can do for my homeland and its people.IfI can inspire even a single person,it would be worth it.The world today isgrowing global.We are now not only to think of our own nation but as and when wethink of it,we have to keep the international perception in mind;consequently,Ichose Politics with International Relations as one of my courses.
Studying in UK will breed a sense of individuality and self reliance.Iwould be able to interact with people from everywhere and get to know abouttheir culture.This would not only open new horizons for me,but would also clearsome preconceived notions one has about the other.I have always been an activeparticipant of debates.I have participated in 3 Model UN conferences out ofwhich I was awarded with the Best Delegate award in two. I was also one of thetwo students to be selected from my school to participate in the EnglishSpeaking Union '08.Moreover, I've taken part in Parliamentary style debatestoo.Therefore I believe I can communicate effectively in public and languagewill not be a barrier in my education.Furthermore, I have worked as an interneeat Al-Shifa Eye Hospital for a month in summers.Here I learnt how to deal withpatients,use the Auto Ref, handle files and punctuality.We also campaigned to aremote area near Murree where we helped the doctors in examining the patientsfree of cost.Another experience which taught me a lot was when me and my fellowcolleagues volunteered to paint walls for the SOS Children's Village.Inaddition,I worked with SUNGI (NGO) where a group of 5 of us had to organize anevent to pay tribute to 1000 Women for the Nobel Peace Prize.
I enjoy Literature,especially the works of Shakespeare,TennesseeWilliams,Thomas Hardy and Andrew Marvell.I'd be delighted to study in achallenging atmosphere where I can focus on my studies.I commit to my work andmy ability to think out of the box,keenness for Politics and my perception ofthings,I understand,gives me an edge over others.I believe in myself,and ifprovided with an opportunity,I'd make the university proud.
from . . ." What items could a person use to describe leadershipqualities?
Inspired by the student council advisors at my high school.
Student council was a big part of my life in high school. I haveparticipated in it since my frst year of high school. When I frst joined，I wasquiet，na?ve，and unwilling to participate in many activities. I was scared tomeet new people and afraid to apply myself. This all began to change. Half waythrough my frst year in student council， one of the advisors can up to me andasked why I did not participate that much. I did not have an answer for her anddid not know how to respond. After this，I began to think of an answer. I becamefrustrated and decided to change. I started to show up at events and had a greattime. I realized I loved this and wanted to start leading these activities. Inmy sophomore，junior，and now my senior year of high school，I asserted myselfand took on a strong leadership role in student council. I did not fgure out theanswer to why I was so reserved until this year with the help of thisquestion.
When I looked up leadership in the dictionary，it said that it was thecapacity to lead and the act or instance of leading. These are two very broaddefnitions of leadership. Many people have different notions of what this wordactually means. When I was challenged to use different items to describe whatleadership actually is，I thought this was going to be a hard and obnoxioustask. What could I learn from comparing leadership to a stuffed animal or arubber chicken? But when I sat down to come up with a couple of answers，Irealized that leadership could be compared to almost anything a personwants.
All I know about leadership I learned from a calculator. A calculator canadd everything together to come up with the best answer. It can delet e what isunnecessary and only include what is important. It can solve any type ofproblem. These are all important equalities a leader has to have. A leader hasto be able to add all of the ideas together to make the best possible plan.Leaders have to know how to decipher the good and the bad out of an idea. Theyhave to be versatile and know how to deal with different types of issues.
All I know about leadership I learned from a ball. A ball is able to bounceback up after it is dropped. It is round and has no creases. A ball can bethrown back and forth to different people. All of these qualities are alsoleadership qualities. A leader has to be ready for every situation that isthrown at him or her. He or she has to be able to bounce back from any setbacksand never dwell on the past. Leaders have to exhibit many qualities and never beclosed-minded about a situation. A leader must be able to delegate when he orshe cannot get the work done. They have to trust everyone they lead to be ableto "catch the ball" and keep a project rolling.
This activity made me realize that being a leader is so much more than justhaving authority and having the ability to take control of a situation. A leaderhas to be trusting of all the people he or she leads and，leaders must be ableto combine ideas into one encompassing idea. They cannot sit in the backgroundand watch events happen; they have to jump in and be involved. They should notdelegate all their responsibilities away.
Leadership is more than what the dictionary says it is.
I learned through all of this that I have many of these qualities.
I have the ability to solve problems，lead through adversity，and beversatile. From answering this question， I realized that I could leadeffectively，even if my leadership style is different from other individuals.When I joined student council in my frst year of high school，I did not havethese qualities because I was never put into a situation where I had to lead. Iwas too reserved to try. When I tried，I learned that I could succeed in this. Idid not realize until I answered this question about leadership. I was neverable to see that being a leader is not just about taking control of a group andtelling everyone what to When I was a freshman，I thoughtleadership was this. I did not know that did not have to be forceful and strict.I stereotyped a leader then. Thisis where I went wrong. A leader is about beingyourself and never letting anyone change you. I thought I had to change to be agood leaderOnly when I expanded my comfort zone did I realize this was nottrueIt only took three years and a silly question/game to fgure this out.
Growing up in a modest village in China, I hardly ever had the chance tosee many examples of modern technology; people who dig wells by hand to obtaindrinking wateruse ox-driven plows to cultivate their fields don’t have much usefor televisiopersonal computers. But when my father gave me an old radio to playwith, I wanted nothing more than to take apart the contraptionsee what i idemade such interesting sounds.

……I first read this paragraphMadame Curie as a 14-year-old child,I stillremember how wonderful I felt. I remember thinking, “What esteemed men theywere! How hard they worked!” As I grew older, this paragraph became a source ofencouragement in the face of adversity. I begin to feel a magical blue lighttwinkling in my heart, kindling a love of science,encouraging me to chargebravely into the unknown world.
I never forgot my adolescent idol, Maria Curie. As I re-read the book,another pa age leaped out: “She was now 24-an age when some of her greatcontemporaries were to be on the brink of major discoveries… Maria took thetrainWarsaw to Paris, the intellectual Mecca.”
