My passion is traveling the world.
Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved to travel, even if it was just to the supermarket down the block. I always found it invigorating to go out and explore the world. When you're traveling, you get to have a glimpse of what it is like in various cultures. The food, the music, the people, and the location are all very stimulating.
Explo at Yale is filled with a diverse group of students who come from all walks of life and from all over the world. If accepted into Exlpo at Yale, I will be able to learn about culture while representing New York City and my ethnic background. Upon leaving Yale, I would be able to walk out of there knowing more about the world and how to improve my communication skills along with a better idea of the places I might want to go and visit.
"Destiny's academic prowess as well as her sociability has helped her take advantage of being in a class with seniors. She has become very familiar with the Explo at Yale program through her friendship with upperclassmen who have participated. Explo at Yale is an ideal program for Destiny because the course listing includes many classes that pique her interests. Destiny has her sights set on attending one of the best colleges in the country, and this can be her chance to explore a prestigious college campus."
Explo at Yale was a life-changing experience. I will never forget the summer full of fun, joy, education, and friends. When I arrived at Yale, I didn't know what to expect. I was excited to see what the future had in store for me. As time went by, I was so grateful that I was given that opportunity to meet new people and cultures. At Yale, there were people from all walks of life. And, it was so breath-taking to see all the diversity. We were a garden full of flowers, no two ever exactly the same.
Now, I am coming close to the end of my sophomore year of high school and entering my summer vacation. By Sunday, I will be one week away from attending Explo at Yale. I am so excited and I can't wait to attend. I am eager to go to my classes and meet new friends. Thanks for your donations!
All my best wishes to you, Destiny! And thank you, Ms. Choi, for who you are and being a bridge of hope!
