We were born alone in this world. It is the surrounding environment that has taught us about relationships, religions, castes, cultures and other things in life. But the fact is that one day we will have to die. Nobody will die with us. When a child is born into this wonderful world, he depends on his mother and father for everything. When he grows slowly, he needs guidance from both his mother and father and other family members. In other words, people depend on their parents and the people around them until they are faced with something in life that cannot be done by anyone else but themselves. As for me, I needed my parents to make every single decision in my life. But now, at the age of nineteen, I have traveled alone halfway across the world to the United States for a higher education, a better future, and a chance to become self-sufficient. Since I was all alone during the trip, the procedures during the plane ride, which were once performed by my parents for me, had to be performed by myself. At first I was so scared that I was about to cry, but I had a strong feeling in my mind that I still had to reach my destination. So I gathered all my courage and started my journey to the United States. As the saying goes, the United States of America is a land full of opportunities and we as human beings are always looking for good opportunities, me too. It's true that once you study abroad your outlook and perspective towards life changes completely. Being away from the comforts of your home teaches you to be strong and independent. Higher education gives me the chance to gain knowledge and skills that can be used for the rest of my life, to start my career and also gives me the job I want. Initially, my parents had......middle of paper......and in my hometown technologies and my university helped me a lot to do things faster. The technologies used in the US education sector are far better than those of any other nation. Each classroom has a projector; the laboratories are very well equipped and provide students with practical knowledge about the course they are studying. Therefore, to keep up with a rapidly changing world with modern technologies, I need to think fast and do things faster. After my school's competitive exam, my plan is to return to my home country as a worthy candidate to lead a renowned organization. Multinational companies, banks, organizations and commercial enterprises always give priority to foreign and globally recognized certificates. The degree I will get after graduation will help me set up my professional life as a leader in any type of business sector.
