Mr. is another fundraiser I have been heavily involved in for three years since its conception, which I was heavily involved. (I can proudly say that this event has raised over $100,000 for Saint Bede). This year I was a part of the 2 nd place team and choreographed the dance for it.

I ve stayed at small farms, being a part of the daily chores where the nearest store was twenty minutes away, all the way to big cities like London where I learned how to navigate the underground transportation system.

My family has always come first and I enjoy going to my cousins sporting events and cheering them on. 4/4

5 Future Plans After graduating from Saint Bede Academy in the Spring 2013, I will be attending xxxxx College where I will be pursuing a career as an xxxxxx. I think my personality suits this career because I enjoy being with people and I like to teach new things. The benefit of this career is being able to help solve people s problems and teach them a way they can perform daily tasks. I plan to be heavily involved in activities and clubs while in college much like I am at St. Bede. Some things that I plan to be involved in are the xxxxxx club, xxxxx team, Spanish club and act as representative of xxxx College promoting all that the school has to offer. Since I have been young, I have always been heavily involved so I cannot imagine these would be the only programs I will be involved in. I plan to major in Biology and minor in Spanish. My second year at xxxxx College I am planning to participate in a 6 month study abroad program in Spain. After graduating from college I plan to further my education and go to graduate school where I can pursue my dream of becoming a xxxxxx. I also hope to marry and have children one day. 5/4
