C.A.S Goals
In the first part of my two year program, I was part of Habitat for Humanity, The under 19 Basket-Ball team and the Lead role in the school play (Fiddler on The Roof). These are activities that I really enjoyed, it is time to try something new and start fresh.Creativity
Since I was part of a lead role in a play and developed new skills that I did no tknow I had. For creativity I want to be able to share my learning and work. Over the summer I have been introduced to a program that lets me make music beats. I have already made a song last year but I accidentally deleted it from my computer. My intentions are to learn about music software's and be able to make music with ease.
My other passion would be film and television, my plan is to film a short movie or show that I can share with my family and friends. I enjoy the whole process of movie making (Casting, Directing, Producing, Filming and Acting). If possible my dream would be to work in the Entertainment Industry, I love the business part of it as much as the creative process. In fact I would love to become like James Cameron or Steven Spielberg. Its a long way to go but I am fully committed to make my dream a reality.
Action
This summer I spent my time in Lebanon with my grandparents and family members. If you are Lebanese then you know that the food is amazing and my family is generous and insist that their guest have a good meal. The variety is just as big as the quantity they make you eat. Unfortunately I gained some weight and laziness is settling in very quickly.
Therefor my plan for this year is to lose this weight and gain muscle at the same time. I found this program called P90X and it is very demanding. Its demanding, every day for an hour or more. In school I would like to try something new Track and Field. I've never done this sport before so I am going to give it a shot and hopefully succeed.
Service
Habitat was a great experience, I would like to continue this but for one semester only, I might change to something different just to have a point of view what other students are experiencing. It also allows me to Undertake new challenges by working and collaborating with other students.Habitat has shown me that team effort is necessary to get the job done. The leader is usually Mr. Rhiem and the students get together and help one another in completing the task. My cousin in Lebanon is in the Red Cross organization. I spent a week with them in a camp and I got to see what its like to be involved, I think that many places in the world are being neglected and awareness is not being advertised. This is what I want to change and also I hope to continue my learning with the community and embrace life by seeing and hearing what people are limited to in countries like Sri Lanka. Also I believe that this gives me the chance to learn about the culture and ethics of environment which are alien to me.
In time I hope and I wish that I accomplish these goals and become a better person, not only in CAS but in life. I hear once that if you don't have education you have limited chance of success.
