My Life - Rajul Ghelani
Past
Florida road trip
This was the first time I drove more than 10 hours.
I got to spend time with my family and friends for a week and travelling to Orlando was always a thing I wanted to do.
AP Program
A great new opportunity for me academically. Had
to leave my old friends, but I got to make new friends. Boosted my confidence as well.
Cruise Trip
A chance to reconnect with my childhood friends and travel beautiful, tropical islands. These islands include Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel. I love travelling and I never would have imagined going to these places.
Present
DECA Internationals
In April, I qualified for DECA Internationals or ICDC in Atlanta, Georgia. I didn’t place at the international level, but I got the one of a kind experience of competing against hundreds of other people. This was an event I had never thought about qualifying for and when I did and I went, my eyes were opened to the several areas in the business field and how to apply them in my day to day life.
Volunteering
Currently, I volunteer with the City of Brampton almost every week and this gives me the chance to give back to the community and help those in need. Through this opportunity, I get the chance to help seniors, adults and also children. There are many events which I am able to volunteer for including kids camps and administrative work at my local community center. This is important to me because
Swimming
I have just finished my Bronze Medallion exam and I am planning on moving on to Bronze Cross. This will bring me one step closer to becoming a Canadian National Lifeguard. Swimming is one of my hobbies and I could possibly get a part time job lifeguarding at a local community swim.
Future
Graduate high school
Graduating high school with an average higher than 85% will give me a better chance to achieve anything academically. A low average would negatively impact my life as the number of opportunities in university would decrease. This will soon affect my chances of getting a well paying job and be successful in my life.
Univeristy
The next step after high school would be university. I have a number of desired universities I would like to get accepted to and graduate with a valuable degree in law or accounting. This part of my life has a similar impact as graduating high school successfully. This specific acceptance would decide what career opportunities I would receive.
Travel
The final memory I am looking forward to in the future is travelling the world with my friends. This would be an extremely memorable opportunity for me to spend time with my friends and enjoy the completion of our studies; high school and university. This would be important to my life because it would give us a chance to give ourselves time without stress.
