What do I bring?

Positivity

What did I make a picture of?

Dianthus caryophyllus flower

What does it represent? Explain what your image represents to you?

While attending York College I have discovered that I bring love,

positivity, strength and peace. I show my positivity by always coming into

school with the best attitude. If I see someone is having a bad day I love to

cheer them up and find ways to make them happy. Positivity goes a long

way while in college. I wanted to find a symbol from the outdoors since I

am very passionate about plants. A flower starts off as a seed in the ground

and sprouts up as a root. The adult plant produces the flowers while the

plant matures. This shows what I bring to york college because of the fresh

start of being an incoming freshman. I have had bad days and I have good

days but showing my resources of positivity has caused me to show the

righteousness of being positive and calm.

Being a first generation college student has shown me the importance of

being positive. At only 15 I lost my dad. It was very unexpected. While this

was a very grief moment in my life it showed me how to be strong and very

independent. I learned how to prosper on my own just as a flower does

when it starts the growing process. I learned how to be strong and heal

from the unexpected loss him. I am very appreciative of the memories I

have experienced with my father. I love that he taught me the acceptance

of everyone and everything. This has given me a positive attitude with not

only myself but with my peers.

I hope you enjoy reading about what I bring to York College!
