I am honored to express my interest in applying for the nursing scholarship being offered. This scholarship would play a crucial role in helping me achieve my career aspirations while allowing me to focus on my education and training as I prepare for a lifelong commitment to patient care. I graduated from Zachary High School in May 2023, where I was enrolled in the medical assistant program and maintained a 3.5 GPA throughout my academic career. During high school, I was also an active member of the Zachary High School tennis team. Tennis has not only been a passion of mine but has also provided me with invaluable opportunities to develop leadership skills, perseverance, and teamwork. Beyond academics and athletics, my upbringing has shaped my drive and determination. Raised by a single mother, I witnessed firsthand the strength, resilience, and work ethic it takes to overcome challenges. Watching her provide for our family as a single parent instilled in me the same sense of discipline and perseverance that I now carry into every aspect of my life. I consider my greatest achievement to be the work ethic I have developed through her example. She taught me that success is not given but earned through hard work, dedication, and the willingness to push forward, even in the face of adversity. This lesson has become the foundation of my ambitions and continues to fuel my passion for nursing. Today, I am enrolled at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University, where I am pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in nursing. From a young age, I have been drawn to helping others and making a meaningful impact on their lives. As I explored the healthcare field, I was particularly captivated by the role of nurses and their holistic approach to patient care—considering not only physical health but also the emotional and psychological well-being of patients. My goal is to become a nurse who provides compassionate, skilled care to those in need. Upon completing my degree, I plan to gain experience in the Emergency Room, where I can apply my critical thinking skills in a fast-paced environment while supporting patients during some of their most vulnerable moments. In addition to my academic and career ambitions, I am deeply committed to community service. Volunteering is an essential part of who I am, and I find great fulfillment in giving back. I have had the privilege of volunteering at Oakwood Village, where I spend time playing bingo with seniors, bringing them joy and companionship. These experiences have reinforced my belief in the importance of human connection and the power of even small acts of kindness. Human touch impacts patient care because of one word, empathy. It shows compassion, reduces anxiety, and builds relationships with your patients. Trustworthy relationships. From a holistic perspective, touch reminds patients that they are not merely cases or conditions to be treated, but individuals with dignity and emotional needs. It bridges communication gaps, particularly for those who cannot express themselves verbally and reinforces the nurse’s role as both caregiver and healer. Receiving this scholarship would not only help alleviate the financial burden of tuition, books, and other educational expenses but would also allow me to fully immerse myself in my studies and clinical training. More importantly, it would enable me to continue my journey toward becoming a nurse who makes a real difference in the lives of patients and their families. I sincerely appreciate your time and consideration of my application. Thank you for the opportunity to share my story and my passion for nursing.

As a member of the tennis team, I have been fortunate to receive several awards and recognitions for my accomplishments on the court. These accomplishments have instilled in me a sense of pride and responsibility to be a role model for my teammates. I have learned to lead by example, setting the tone for hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship. Whether it's demonstrating proper technique, staying focused during practices, or supporting my teammates during matches, I strive to be a positive influence on and off the court. I come from a single Mom who has raised me and helped me get to where I am today. I am now enrolled at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University to pursue my Bachelor's degree in nursing. I am particularly interested in receiving my bachelor’s in nursing because from a young age, I have been drawn to helping others and making a positive impact on their lives. As I grew older, I became increasingly interested in healthcare and the different ways that healthcare professionals could improve the well-being of patients. I was particularly drawn to the nursing profession because of the holistic approach that nurses take to patient care, considering not just the physical symptoms but also the emotional and psychological needs of patients. As someone who is deeply committed to making a difference in the lives of patients. Upon completion of my Bachelor's degree in nursing I would love to go directly into the Emergency Room for experience. Receiving this scholarship would not only help me to achieve my goal of becoming a nurse, but it would also allow me to focus on my studies and develop the skills and knowledge necessary to become a successful and effective healthcare professional. If awarded the scholarship, I would use the funds to cover my educational expenses, including tuition, books, and other related costs. This would enable me to focus on my studies and fully engage in the nursing program, without having to worry about financial constraints. I also volunteer, volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact in the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your consideration of my application for this scholarship.

As someone who is deeply committed to making a difference in the lives of patients. Upon completion of my Bachelor's degree in nursing and working for two years as a nurse at Lane Hospital, I plan to apply to the Nurse Anesthetist program at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University. I am highly motivated to pursue this program because I am passionate about providing patients with the highest quality care and minimizing their discomfort during surgical procedures.

I also volunteer, volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact in the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. Oakwood Village is a retirement community that provides a range of services to seniors, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care. One of the activities that they offer to their residents is bingo. I have always enjoyed playing bingo and thought it would be a great way to connect with the residents and make their day a little brighter. On weekends in my spare time, I spend a few hours at Oakwood Village playing bingo with the seniors. It is a fun and lighthearted activity that allows me to interact with the residents and learn more about their lives. I love hearing their stories and getting to know them on a personal level. Playing bingo with the seniors is not just about having fun; it also provides socialization and cognitive stimulation, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being. Many seniors experience feelings of loneliness and isolation, especially during the pandemic. By volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the residents, I hope to help alleviate these feelings and improve their quality of life. In addition to playing bingo, I also help set up the game, distribute the prizes, and clean up afterward. These tasks may seem small, but they are essential to ensuring that the activity runs smoothly and that the residents have a positive experience. In conclusion, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your consideration of my application for this scholarship.

I graduated high school in May 2023 and was enrolled in the medical assistant program at Zachary High School, and I maintained an average 3.5 GPA throughout my academic career. I also play tennis for Zachary High School; it has not only been a passion of mine but has also provided me with valuable opportunities to develop my leadership potential. Throughout my years on the tennis team, I have learned to lead by example, communicate effectively, and persevere in the face of adversity. These skills have prepared me for success in college and beyond, and I am eager to continue to hone them as I pursue my education and career goals. As a member of the tennis team, I have been fortunate to receive several awards and recognitions for my accomplishments on the court. These accomplishments have instilled in me a sense of pride and responsibility to be a role model for my teammates. I have learned to lead by example, setting the tone for hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship. Whether it's demonstrating proper technique, staying focused during practices, or supporting my teammates during matches, I strive to be a positive influence on and off the court. I am also excited to inform you that I am enrolled at Baton Rouge Community College to complete my prerequisites for nursing school. I am thrilled to take the first steps towards achieving my dream of becoming a nurse. I am now enrolled at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University to pursue my Bachelor's degree in nursing. I am particularly interested in receiving my bachelor’s in nursing because from a young age, I have been drawn to helping others and making a positive impact on their lives. As I grew older, I became increasingly interested in healthcare and the different ways that healthcare professionals could improve the well-being of patients. I was particularly drawn to the nursing profession because of the holistic approach that nurses take to patient care, considering not just the physical symptoms but also the emotional and psychological needs of patients. As someone who is deeply committed to making a difference in the lives of patients. Upon completion of my Bachelor's degree in nursing and working for two years as a nurse at Lane Hospital, I plan to apply to the Nurse Anesthetist program at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University. I am highly motivated to pursue this program because I am passionate about providing patients with the highest quality care and minimizing their discomfort during surgical procedures. My Aunt also has Alzheimer's disease, and it impacts our family because she has good days and bad days on remembering who we are. I help my family with her care needs when I am not studying or working as a waitress. I have seen the reality of what families go through when caring for a loved one who has this disease. Receiving this scholarship would not only help me to achieve my goal of becoming a nurse, but it would also allow me to focus on my studies and develop the skills and knowledge necessary to become a successful and effective healthcare professional. This scholarship will be an important factor in enabling me to achieve my long-term goals of becoming a nurse anesthetist and contributing to the advancement of patient care. If awarded the scholarship, I would use the funds to cover my educational expenses, including tuition, books, and other related costs. This would enable me to focus on my studies and fully engage in the nursing program, without having to worry about financial constraints. In conclusion, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your consideration of my application for this scholarship.

Volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact on the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. Oakwood Village is a retirement community that provides a range of services to seniors, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care. One of the activities that they offer to their residents is bingo. I have always enjoyed playing bingo and thought it would be a great way to connect with the residents and make their day a little brighter. On weekends in my spare time, I spend a few hours at Oakwood Village playing bingo with the seniors. It is a fun and lighthearted activity that allows me to interact with the residents and learn more about their lives. I love hearing their stories and getting to know them on a personal level. Playing bingo with seniors is not just about having fun; it also provides socialization and cognitive stimulation, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being. Many seniors experience feelings of loneliness and isolation, especially during the pandemic. By volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the residents, I hope to help alleviate these feelings and improve their quality of life. In addition to playing bingo, I also help set up the game, distribute the prizes, and clean up afterward. These tasks may seem small, but they are essential to ensuring that the activity runs smoothly and that the residents have a positive experience. Volunteering for the city is another way to get involved in the community and make a positive impact. As someone who is passionate about giving back, I have also volunteered for the City of Zachary for local events and the Zachary Fire Department helping with the fire prevention division. I am also excited to inform you that I am enrolled at Baton Rouge Community College to complete my prerequisites for nursing school.

By embracing leadership, we can contribute to the growth and well-being of individuals, organizations, and society as a whole.

My name is Kiley Phillips, and I have struggled with ADD since the young age of 7 years old. I have not let this stop my education and learning ability. Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects one's ability to pay attention, focus, and control impulses. Growing up with ADD, I struggled in school, especially with staying focused during class, completing assignments, and studying for exams. However, I refused to let my diagnosis define me and used it as motivation to work harder and overcome the struggles that came with it. My journey with ADD started when I was diagnosed in the second grade. I remember feeling confused and frustrated, wondering why I couldn't focus like my peers. My parents were supportive and worked with my school to create an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) to accommodate my needs. This helped me stay organized and on task, but I still faced challenges. Throughout my elementary and middle school years, I often struggled with completing assignments on time and staying focused during class. I would often lose track of time, daydream, or fidget with objects. This affected my grades and self-esteem. I felt like I wasn't good enough and that my peers were surpassing me academically. In high school, I discovered my passion for nursing. I was intrigued by the human body and how it functioned. Nursing seemed like the perfect career for me, as it would allow me to help others and utilize my organizational skills. However, I knew that getting into nursing school would be a challenge. I needed to maintain good grades, pass my exams, and stand out from other applicants. I knew I needed to take control of my ADD and develop strategies to help me succeed. I started by breaking down assignments into smaller tasks and setting specific goals. I also used a planner to keep track of deadlines and important dates. Additionally, I would take breaks and exercise to help me refocus and alleviate stress. With these strategies, I was able to excel academically and get accepted into nursing school. Nursing school was challenging, but I was determined to succeed. I continued to use the strategies that had worked for me in high school and added new ones, such as studying with a group and utilizing flashcards. I also sought out extra help from my professors when needed. After I complete my Bachelor of Science in Nursing, I will work as a registered nurse in a hospital setting. To become a CRNA, I needed to earn a Master of Science in Nursing degree and complete a CRNA program. This means returning to school and facing new challenges. However, I am confident in my ability to succeed. I will use the same strategies that had worked for me in the past and seek out support from my family, friends, and colleagues. In the future, I hope to continue to grow in my career as a Nurse and a CRNA and make a positive impact on the lives of my patients. I want to continue to learn and develop my skills and become a leader in my profession. Additionally, I hope to inspire others who may be struggling with ADD or other challenges to never give up on their dreams and to always believe in themselves. In conclusion, having ADD has presented me with unique challenges throughout my academic and professional career. However, with hard work, determination, and support from others.

My name is Kiley Phillips, I am writing to express my interest in applying for the scholarship being offered by Sean Carroll's Mindscape Big Picture Scholarship. The quest to understand the nature of our universe is a fundamental pursuit of human knowledge. It is through this exploration that we gain insights into our existence, unravel the mysteries of the cosmos, and advance our understanding of the laws that govern the universe. In this essay, I will explain why we must work to better understand the nature of our universe and discuss the ideas and concepts that I hope to employ in this endeavor. First and foremost, understanding the nature of our universe satisfies our innate curiosity as human beings. We have an inherent desire to comprehend the world around us and seek answers to profound questions about our existence. Exploring the nature of the universe allows us to uncover the origins of the cosmos, the fundamental forces that shape it, and the intricate mechanisms that govern its behavior. This pursuit of knowledge broadens our perspective, enriches our understanding of the world, and sparks intellectual curiosity for generations to come. Studying the nature of our universe has practical applications that benefit society.

My name is Kiley Phillips, and I am writing to express my interest in applying for the scholarship being offered by ALS Family Scholarship. I believe that this scholarship will help me achieve my career goals and make a positive impact in the healthcare industry. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder that affects the nerve cells responsible for controlling voluntary muscle movement. This disease not only takes a toll on the individual diagnosed with it but also affects their entire family. Having a family member with ALS has deeply influenced my aspirations to become a nurse and provide care and support to those in need. Witnessing the physical, emotional, and psychological challenges that my Aunt faces daily has ignited a passion within me to make a difference in the lives of individuals suffering from debilitating diseases. ALS is a progressive condition that gradually weakens the muscles, leading to difficulty speaking, swallowing, and eventually breathing. It has taught me the importance of compassion, patience, and empathy when caring for patients who are battling life-altering illnesses. As a nurse student, I will aspire to offer comprehensive care that addresses not only the physical symptoms but also the emotional and psychological well-being of patients and their families. Having experienced firsthand the impact of ALS on my family, I understand the need for a holistic approach to healthcare. I want to provide a supportive environment for patients and their loved ones, where they feel heard, understood, and valued. Additionally, I have witnessed the incredible impact that healthcare professionals, especially nurses, can have on individuals living with ALS. Their expertise, compassion, and dedication to improving the quality of life for patients have left an indelible mark on my heart. From assisting with daily activities, managing symptoms, and providing emotional support, nurses play a crucial role in the lives of ALS patients and their families. Being actively involved in my Aunt's care has allowed me to witness the challenges faced by caregivers as well. The physical and emotional toll it takes on them is immense. As a nurse student, I will aspire to support and provide resources to caregivers, helping them navigate the difficulties that come with providing care to their loved ones. I want to be a source of comfort and guidance, providing them with the tools they need to maintain their well-being while caring for someone with a progressive disease like ALS. Witnessing the strength and resilience of my Aunt in the face of ALS has inspired me to be a beacon of hope for others. I want to advocate for ALS patients and raise awareness about the disease, its impact, and the urgent need for research and support. By participating in community initiatives, fundraisers, and support groups, I aim to contribute to the ongoing fight against ALS and create a positive impact on the lives of those affected by the disease. Lastly, having a family member with ALS has profoundly shaped my desire to become a nurse and provide care to individuals facing similar challenges. The experiences I have had within my family have cultivated compassion, empathy, and a deep understanding of the impact that debilitating diseases can have on individuals and their loved ones. By pursuing a career in nursing, I hope to make a difference in the lives of those affected by ALS and other life-altering illnesses. I am committed to providing comprehensive care, advocating for patients and their families, and being a source of support and comfort during their journey.

My name is Kiley Phillips, I am graduating high school May of 2023 and am going to school to be a registered nurse. When I was 14 years old I found out my Uncle, Casey Phillips, committed suicide. He was struggling with mental health and his girlfriend broke up with him. So he shot himself at my Grandfather's house, and my Grandfather had to find him there. As a family, we have learned day by day to overcome this situation with counseling, talking to one another, and just being there for one another. When I become a nurse I want to be an advocate for others dealing with mental illness. Experiencing the suicide of a loved one can be an incredibly difficult and traumatic experience that can have a profound impact on your life. This experience has influenced my beliefs, relationships, and career aspirations. In terms of my beliefs, I have developed a deeper understanding and empathy for those who struggle with mental health issues. I can recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health, and that seeking help for mental health issues is a sign of strength, not weakness. I also believe that there is a stigma attached to mental health issues and that it's important to break down these barriers and promote greater understanding and acceptance. Relationships have also been influenced by this experience. I have developed a greater appreciation for the importance of communication, both in terms of expressing your feelings and listening to others. I feel more attuned to the needs of those around me and better able to recognize when someone is struggling with mental health issues. Suicide is a complex and multifaceted issue that can be influenced by many factors, including mental illness. While not everyone who struggles with mental illness will attempt or complete suicide, there is a strong correlation between mental illness and suicidal behavior. Many individuals who struggle with mental illness experience intense emotional pain, hopelessness, and feelings of isolation and despair. These feelings can be so overwhelming that they feel unable to cope and may turn to suicide as a way to escape their pain. In some cases, mental illness can also impair an individual's judgment and decision-making abilities, making suicide seem like a viable option. It's important to note that not all mental illnesses carry the same level of risk for suicide. Certain disorders, such as major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, have been linked to a higher risk of suicide than others. Additionally, certain demographic groups, such as young people and those who have experienced trauma or abuse, may be at greater risk for suicidal behavior. It's important to seek help if you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues and is experiencing suicidal thoughts or behaviors. There are many effective treatments available for mental illness, including therapy, medication, and support groups. It's also important to reach out to loved ones, friends, or healthcare professionals for help and support. Together, we can work to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and prevent suicide. As a nurse, I can play a vital role in helping those who are struggling with mental illness. Nurses work in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, community health centers, and private practices, and can provide a range of services to individuals with mental health conditions.

My name is Kiley Phillips, I am graduating high school May of 2023 and am going to school to be a registered nurse. When I was 14 years old I found out my Uncle, Casey Phillips, committed suicide. He was struggling with mental health and his girlfriend broke up with him. So he shot himself at my Grandfather's house, and my Grandfather had to find him there. As a family, we have learned day by day to overcome this situation with counseling, talking to one another, and just being there for one another. When I become a nurse I want to be an advocate for others dealing with mental illness. Experiencing the suicide of a loved one can be an incredibly difficult and traumatic experience that can have a profound impact on your life. This experience has influenced my beliefs, relationships, and career aspirations. In terms of my beliefs, I have developed a deeper understanding and empathy for those who struggle with mental health issues. I can recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health, and that seeking help for mental health issues is a sign of strength, not weakness. I also believe that there is a stigma attached to mental health issues and that it's important to break down these barriers and promote greater understanding and acceptance. Relationships have also been influenced by this experience. I have developed a greater appreciation for the importance of communication, both in terms of expressing your feelings and listening to others. I feel more attuned to the needs of those around me and better able to recognize when someone is struggling with mental health issues. Suicide is a complex and multifaceted issue that can be influenced by many factors, including mental illness. While not everyone who struggles with mental illness will attempt or complete suicide, there is a strong correlation between mental illness and suicidal behavior. Many individuals who struggle with mental illness experience intense emotional pain, hopelessness, and feelings of isolation and despair. These feelings can be so overwhelming that they feel unable to cope and may turn to suicide as a way to escape their pain. In some cases, mental illness can also impair an individual's judgment and decision-making abilities, making suicide seem like a viable option. It's important to note that not all mental illnesses carry the same level of risk for suicide. Certain disorders, such as major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, have been linked to a higher risk of suicide than others. Additionally, certain demographic groups, such as young people and those who have experienced trauma or abuse, may be at greater risk for suicidal behavior. It's important to seek help if you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues and is experiencing suicidal thoughts or behaviors. There are many effective treatments available for mental illness, including therapy, medication, and support groups. It's also important to reach out to loved ones, friends, or healthcare professionals for help and support. Together, we can work to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and prevent suicide. As a nurse, I can play a vital role in helping those who are struggling with mental illness. Nurses work in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, community health centers, and private practices, and can provide a range of services to individuals with mental health conditions. Here are some ways in which being a nurse can help someone with mental illness: 1)Providing emotional support: Nurses can provide emotional support to patients who are struggling with mental illness. This may involve active listening, providing a safe and non-judgmental space for patients to express their feelings, and offering guidance and support as they navigate their condition. 2)Administering medication: Many individuals with mental illness require medication to manage their symptoms. As a nurse, you can play a crucial role in ensuring that patients receive the right medication at the right dose and at the right time. 3)Assisting with therapy: Nurses can assist mental health professionals with therapy sessions. This may involve setting up the therapy room, taking notes during the session, and providing follow-up care after the session. 4)Educating patients and families: Nurses can help educate patients and their families about mental illness, including the signs and symptoms, treatment options, and coping strategies. 5)Providing crisis intervention: In some cases, individuals with mental illness may experience a crisis or emergency situation. Nurses can provide immediate support and assistance, such as helping the patient de-escalate, contacting emergency services, and providing first aid if necessary. 6)By providing compassionate care, support, and education, nurses can make a significant difference in the lives of those who are struggling with mental illness. As a nurse, I can help patients manage their symptoms, improve their quality of life, and work towards recovery. Thank you for listening to my personal story about suicide and how I would like to help others in the future overcome the illness.

Throughout my high school career, I have volunteered in many ways throughout my community of Zachary, Louisiana. Volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact on the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. Oakwood Village is a retirement community that provides a range of services to seniors, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care. One of the activities that they offer to their residents is bingo. I have always enjoyed playing bingo and thought it would be a great way to connect with the residents and make their day a little brighter. On weekends in my spare time, I spend a few hours at Oakwood Village playing bingo with the seniors. It is a fun and lighthearted activity that allows me to interact with the residents and learn more about their lives. I love hearing their stories and getting to know them on a personal level. Playing bingo with seniors is not just about having fun; it also provides socialization and cognitive stimulation, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being. Many seniors experience feelings of loneliness and isolation, especially during the pandemic. By volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the residents, I hope to help alleviate these feelings and improve their quality of life. In addition to playing bingo, I also help set up the game, distribute the prizes, and clean up afterward. These tasks may seem small, but they are essential to ensuring that the activity runs smoothly and that the residents have a positive experience. Volunteering for the city and my church mission groups is another way to get involved in the community and make a positive impact. As someone passionate about giving back, I have also volunteered for the City of Zachary for local events and the Zachary Fire Department helping with the fire prevention division. The City of Zachary hosts a variety of events throughout the year, ranging from cultural festivals to fitness events. These events bring the community together and create a sense of unity and pride. As a volunteer, I have the opportunity to help make these events a success and contribute to the overall well-being of the community. Finally, volunteering can provide you with a sense of fulfillment and purpose that can be beneficial to your overall well-being. Helping others is what the Bible teaches. It can also help you develop a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the things you have in your life. This fall I plan on attending a mission trip with my church to South Texas where we will make beds for children who do not have any. As a student going to nursing school, I pray this trip allows me to view my leadership skills.

My name is Kiley Phillips, and I have struggled with ADD since a young age of 7 years old. I have not let this stop my education and learning ability. Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects one's ability to pay attention, focus, and control impulses. Growing up with ADD, I struggled in school, especially with staying focused during class, completing assignments, and studying for exams. However, I refused to let my diagnosis define me and used it as motivation to work harder and overcome the struggles that came with it. My journey with ADD started when I was diagnosed in the second grade. I remember feeling confused and frustrated, wondering why I couldn't focus like my peers. My parents were supportive and worked with my school to create an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) to accommodate my needs. This helped me stay organized and on task, but I still faced challenges. Throughout my elementary and middle school years, I often struggled with completing assignments on time and staying focused during class. I would often lose track of time, daydream, or fidget with objects. This affected my grades and self-esteem. I felt like I wasn't good enough and that my peers were surpassing me academically. In high school, I discovered my passion for nursing. I was intrigued by the human body and how it functioned. Nursing seemed like the perfect career for me, as it would allow me to help others and utilize my organizational skills. However, I knew that getting into nursing school would be a challenge. I needed to maintain good grades, pass my exams, and stand out from other applicants. I knew I needed to take control of my ADD and develop strategies to help me succeed. I started by breaking down assignments into smaller tasks and setting specific goals. I also used a planner to keep track of deadlines and important dates. Additionally, I would take breaks and exercise to help me refocus and alleviate stress. With these strategies, I was able to excel academically and get accepted into nursing school. Nursing school was challenging, but I was determined to succeed. I continued to use the strategies that had worked for me in high school and added new ones, such as studying with a group and utilizing flashcards. I also sought out extra help from my professors when needed. After I complete my Bachelor of Science in Nursing, I will work as a registered nurse in a hospital setting. To become a CRNA, I needed to earn a Master of Science in Nursing degree and complete a CRNA program. This means returning to school and facing new challenges. However, I am confident in my ability to succeed. I will use the same strategies that had worked for me in the past and sought out support from my family, friends, and colleagues. In the future, I hope to continue to grow in my career as a Nurse and a CRNA and make a positive impact on the lives of my patients. I want to continue to learn and develop my skills and become a leader in my profession. Additionally, I hope to inspire others who may be struggling with ADD or other challenges to never give up on their dreams and to always believe in themselves. In conclusion, having ADD has presented me with unique challenges throughout my academic and professional career. However, with hard work, determination, and support from others.

My name is Kiley Phillips and these are steps we can take to reduce our carbon footprint, and how it can save the environment. When it comes to living sustainably, reducing your carbon footprint is one of the most impactful things you can do. Electric vehicles (EVs) offer a way to reduce your carbon footprint while still maintaining the convenience and mobility that cars provide. I personally drive an eco-friendly vehicle to save our planet. Every bit helps, each person who drives an eco-car or electric car is helping the environment in their own way. Tesla makes great electric cars, and they are starting to invent other products that are electric and eco-friendly. The price has come down on affordability, so there is no excuse why you would not consider it an option on your next purchase. Here are some reasons why using an EV can help you live sustainably and reduce your carbon footprint: EVs produce fewer emissions: Unlike traditional gas-powered vehicles, EVs produce no tailpipe emissions. This means that they don't contribute to local air pollution, which can have negative health effects. Additionally, the emissions associated with charging an EV are typically much lower than the emissions associated with refining and transporting gasoline. EVs use renewable energy: When you charge your EV with renewable energy, such as solar or wind power, you're effectively driving on clean energy. This means that your transportation is powered by sources that don't produce carbon emissions, helping to reduce your carbon footprint even further. EVs are becoming more affordable: While EVs may have been expensive in the past, they are becoming more affordable as technology improves and demand increases. In addition, EVs often have lower maintenance costs than traditional vehicles, which can help offset the initial purchase price. EVs offer convenience and mobility: Unlike other sustainable transportation options, such as biking or public transportation, EVs offer the convenience and mobility of a personal vehicle. This means that you can maintain your daily routines and travel farther distances without relying on fossil fuels. Finally, sustainable living can also involve reducing water usage, conserving natural resources, and supporting sustainable businesses. Overall, using an electric vehicle to live sustainably in your daily life can have a significant impact on reducing your carbon footprint. By choosing an EV, you're helping to reduce local air pollution, promoting the use of renewable energy, and enjoying the convenience of personal transportation without relying on fossil fuels.

My name is Kiley Phillips, and I love Taylor Swift, I used to jam to her when I was a little girl. My favorite song from the album '1989' is Style and this is why... Taylor Swift's "1989" album marked a significant transition in her musical style, as she shifted from country-pop to a more synth-pop sound. One of the standout tracks from the album is "Style," which has become a fan favorite and a classic Swift hit. As a music enthusiast and a Taylor Swift fan, I can confidently say that "Style" is my favorite song from the album. In this essay, I will explain why "Style" resonates with me and why it is a masterpiece in Taylor Swift's discography. One of the reasons why "Style" stands out to me is the production quality. The song starts with a catchy guitar riff that immediately draws you in. The instrumental elements are masterfully crafted, with the use of synthesizers, drums, and guitar creating a unique and captivating sound. The production quality is so impressive that it makes you want to dance and sing along to the song. The upbeat tempo and the catchy melody make it a perfect pop song. Another aspect of "Style" that I appreciate is the lyrics. The song's lyrics are cleverly written, with Swift comparing her relationship to a classic and timeless style. The song is about the ups and downs of a relationship and how it is characterized by a particular style. The lyrics are relatable and capture the emotions of being in a relationship, especially one that is complicated and undefined. As a listener, I find myself relating to the lyrics, which makes the song more personal and meaningful to me. The vocal performance on "Style" is another factor that makes it my favorite song from the album. Swift's vocals are powerful and confident, and she delivers the lyrics with conviction. The way she sings the chorus, "You got that James Dean daydream look in your eye, and I got that red lip classic thing that you like," is so smooth and effortless that it's hard not to sing along. The vocal harmonies are also well executed, adding an extra layer of depth and texture to the song. Finally, "Style" has a timeless quality that makes it a classic. The song's production, lyrics, and vocal performance all work together to create a masterpiece that stands the test of time. The song is still relevant and resonates with listeners today, despite being released in 2014. The fact that it has remained a fan favorite for so many years is a testament to its quality and the impact it has had on listeners. In conclusion, "Style" is my favorite song from Taylor Swift's "1989" album because of its production quality, lyrics, vocal performance, and timeless quality. The song is a perfect pop gem that captures the emotions of being in a relationship and resonates with listeners of all ages. It's a masterpiece in Taylor Swift's discography, and I'm grateful to have it as part of my music collection.

My essay on being raised by a guardian hits close to home with me. My parents divorced when I was only 9 years old, although they co parented very well, it wasn't the same as coming from a family with two parents in the home. Because my Mom was a single Mom, she had to work 3 jobs to provide for my Brother and I. I relied a lot on my Grandmother and Grandfather to get me places and help pay for things growing up. My Mom did the best she could with what she had. My Brother and I never went without anything. Young teens need to know at an early age who they date and hang out with can effect their future lives and kids lives, and they don't even realize it. Being raised by a guardian or grandparent can have both positive and negative effects on a person's upbringing. On the one hand, it can provide a stable and nurturing environment, especially if the guardian or grandparent is loving and supportive. They can provide emotional support, guidance, and a sense of security to the child. Additionally, grandparents or guardians who have more life experience may offer valuable wisdom and knowledge to their grandchildren or wards. On the other hand, it can also have negative effects, especially if the guardian or grandparent is struggling financially or emotionally. This can lead to a lack of resources or emotional support for the child, which can impact their emotional and social development. Additionally, grandparents or guardians who are older may struggle with keeping up with the child's energy levels and may not be able to provide the same level of care as a younger parent. In terms of future goals, being raised by a guardian or grandparent may impact a person's aspirations and goals. If the guardian or grandparent instills a strong sense of discipline, responsibility, and work ethic, the child may be more likely to strive for academic or career success. However, if the child's upbringing was marked by instability or a lack of emotional support, this may impact their sense of self-worth and confidence, leading them to set lower goals for themselves. Overall, the impact of being raised by a guardian or grandparent can vary widely depending on the specific circumstances of the situation. However, the most important factor is that the child receives love, support, and stability, regardless of who provides it.

Volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact in the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. Oakwood Village is a retirement community that provides a range of services to seniors, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care. One of the activities that they offer to their residents is bingo. I have always enjoyed playing bingo and thought it would be a great way to connect with the residents and make their day a little brighter. On weekends in my spare time, I spend a few hours at Oakwood Village playing bingo with the seniors. It is a fun and lighthearted activity that allows me to interact with the residents and learn more about their lives. I love hearing their stories and getting to know them on a personal level. Playing bingo with the seniors is not just about having fun; it also provides socialization and cognitive stimulation, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being. Many seniors experience feelings of loneliness and isolation, especially during the pandemic. By volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the residents, I hope to help alleviate these feelings and improve their quality of life. In addition to playing bingo, I also help set up the game, distribute the prizes, and clean up afterward. These tasks may seem small, but they are essential to ensuring that the activity runs smoothly and that the residents have a positive experience. Volunteering for the city is another way to get involved in the community and make a positive impact. As someone who is passionate about giving back, I have also volunteered for the City of Zachary for local events and the Zachary Fire Department helping with the fire prevention division. The City of Zachary hosts a variety of events throughout the year, ranging from cultural festivals to fitness events. These events bring the community together and create a sense of unity and pride. As a volunteer, I have the opportunity to help make these events a success and contribute to the overall well-being of the community. One of the events that I have volunteered for is the recent bunny hop run. I helped to put information packets together and assist at the walk. Walks, which are events that encourage physical activity and promote healthy living. These walks are a great way to bring people together and create a sense of camaraderie among participants. The Zachary Fire Department hands out fire prevention bags to children who come and tour the station and to be passed out to children at local city events. I have volunteered helping put the bags together. It’s nice to see the community all come together for one cause. Most events the city holds, the Fire and Police are in attendance also. Volunteering for the City of Zachary has been a fulfilling experience. It has allowed me to meet new people, learn new skills, and give back to the community in a meaningful way. I believe that volunteering is an essential part of being an active member of the community, and I encourage others to get involved in their local community as well.

My name is Kiley Phillips, and I am applying for this scholarship because I want to pursue a career in the health industry as a nurse. One thing Covid 19 taught me was how important mental health is. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on our mental health. The fear and uncertainty surrounding the virus, along with the social and economic consequences of the pandemic, have led to increased levels of stress, anxiety, and depression for many people. The pandemic has disrupted our daily routines, isolated us from our friends and family, and forced us to adapt to new ways of working and learning. Many people have experienced job loss or financial hardship, and there has been an increase in domestic violence and substance abuse. For some, the pandemic has also highlighted existing mental health issues, and has made it more difficult to access necessary support and treatment due to disruptions in healthcare systems and social services. At the same time, the pandemic has also increased awareness of the importance of mental health, and has led to new initiatives and resources to support those who are struggling. Mental health is an essential aspect of our overall well-being. It refers to our psychological and emotional state, which influences our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Our mental health plays a crucial role in determining how we perceive and respond to the world around us. Therefore, taking care of our mental health is essential for leading a healthy and fulfilling life. Maintaining mental wellness is not always easy, but it is necessary for a healthy life. There are several ways to achieve mental wellness, including regular exercise, a healthy diet, quality sleep, stress reduction techniques such as meditation, mindfulness, and yoga, engaging in hobbies, and building a support system of friends and family. As a future nurse, you will be working in a profession that requires you to be compassionate, empathetic, and supportive of others.. It is essential to have strong mental health to perform your job effectively. You will be exposed to various stressors in your work, such as long working hours, intense patient care, and high-pressure situations. Therefore, it is crucial to take care of your mental health to maintain your emotional well-being and perform your job duties effectively. It is also also important to recognize the signs of mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, and burnout. Early identification of mental health issues can help prevent them from becoming more severe and negatively impacting your overall health and well-being. Seeking support from mental health professionals and counselors can be beneficial in addressing mental health concerns and learning effective coping strategies. In conclusion, maintaining good mental health is crucial for leading a healthy and fulfilling life. As a future nurse, it is especially important to prioritize your mental health to perform your job duties effectively and provide the best care for your patients. Practicing self-care, recognizing the signs of mental health issues, and seeking support when needed are all essential components of maintaining good mental wellness.

My name is Kiley Phillips. I have had to overcome adversity in my life coming from a divorced home and balancing 2 homes, school, work, tennis, and other activities. Growing up in a divorced home was not an easy experience. However, I have learned to overcome the adversity that came with it and has emerged as a stronger person. The divorce of my parents when I was young was a life-changing event that brought a lot of challenges. I had to split my time between two households, and it was difficult to adjust to different routines and rules. Moreover, the financial strain of having to support two households meant that we had to cut back on many things that we previously enjoyed. However, I did not let these challenges break me. Instead, I focused on the positives and found ways to cope with the challenges. For instance, I developed a routine that worked for me and made sure that I communicated with both parents about my schedule. This helped me maintain a balance between my two homes. In addition, I learned to appreciate the small things in life. While we may not have had the financial means to go on lavish vacations or buy expensive toys, my parents made sure that we had a roof over our heads, food on the table, and clothes on our backs. I learned to be grateful for these basic necessities and not take them for granted. Moreover, I found solace in my friendships and extracurricular activities. Being part of a sports team or club gave me a sense of belonging and purpose. I found that by immersing myself in activities I enjoyed, I was able to take my mind off of the difficulties at home and find joy in life. As I grew older, I began to see the silver lining in my situation. I realized that the divorce had taught me resilience, independence, and adaptability. I had learned to navigate challenging situations, communicate effectively, and solve problems on my own. These skills have proven invaluable as I have navigated through other challenges in life. In conclusion, growing up in a divorced home was not easy, but it taught me valuable life lessons. I learned to appreciate the simple things in life, find joy in friendships and activities, and develop resilience and adaptability. These skills have helped me overcome other challenges in life, and I am grateful for the adversity I have faced.

My name is Kiley Phillips and what makes me unique is my ability to not only go to school, spend time with family, work as a waitress, play tennis for school, maintain a 2.5 GPA and volunteer. Volunteering is a great way to give back to the community and make a positive impact in the lives of others. As someone who believes in the importance of helping others, I have been volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the seniors. Oakwood Village is a retirement community that provides a range of services to seniors, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care. One of the activities that they offer to their residents is bingo. I have always enjoyed playing bingo and thought it would be a great way to connect with the residents and make their day a little brighter. On weekends in my spare time, I spend a few hours at Oakwood Village playing bingo with the seniors. It is a fun and lighthearted activity that allows me to interact with the residents and learn more about their lives. I love hearing their stories and getting to know them on a personal level. Playing bingo with the seniors is not just about having fun; it also provides socialization and cognitive stimulation, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being. Many seniors experience feelings of loneliness and isolation, especially during the pandemic. By volunteering at Oakwood Village and playing bingo with the residents, I hope to help alleviate these feelings and improve their quality of life. In addition to playing bingo, I also help set up the game, distribute the prizes, and clean up afterward. These tasks may seem small, but they are essential to ensuring that the activity runs smoothly and that the residents have a positive experience. Volunteering for the city is another way to get involved in the community and make a positive impact. As someone who is passionate about giving back, I have also volunteered for the City of Zachary for local events and the Zachary Fire Department helping with the fire prevention division. The City of Zachary hosts a variety of events throughout the year, ranging from cultural festivals to fitness events. These events bring the community together and create a sense of unity and pride. As a volunteer, I have the opportunity to help make these events a success and contribute to the overall well-being of the community. One of the events that I have volunteered for is the recent bunny hop run. I helped to put information packets together and assist at the walk. Walks, which are events that encourage physical activity and promote healthy living. These walks are a great way to bring people together and create a sense of camaraderie among participants. The Zachary Fire Department hands out fire prevention bags to children who come and tour the station and to be passed out to children at local city events. I have volunteered helping put the bags together. It’s nice to see the community all come together for one cause. Most events the city holds, the Fire and Police are in attendance also. Volunteering for the City of Zachary has been a fulfilling experience. It has allowed me to meet new people, learn new skills, and give back to the community in a meaningful way. I believe that volunteering is an essential part of being an active member of the community, and I encourage others to get involved in their local community as well.

The cost of college education has been increasing steadily over the years, and it has become increasingly difficult for low-income families to afford to send their children to college. This is a significant issue because education is a key factor in breaking the cycle of poverty, and limiting access to higher education only serves to widen the inequality gap. To address this problem, a multi-faceted approach is needed that combines financial aid with measures to reduce the cost of college. Here's a detailed plan that could help make college education more affordable for low-income families: Problem: Many low-income families cannot afford to send their children to college, leading to limited opportunities and perpetuating a cycle of poverty. Solution: A scholarship program that provides full-tuition scholarships to eligible students from low-income families. Plan: 1) Identify eligible students: To determine eligibility, applicants would have to meet certain criteria, such as having a household income below a certain threshold, maintaining a minimum GPA, and demonstrating financial need. 2) Partner with colleges and universities: Partner with colleges and universities across the country to provide full-tuition scholarships to eligible students. This would involve establishing relationships with college admissions offices, financial aid offices, and other relevant departments. 3) Fundraise: Secure funding for the program through grants, corporate partnerships, and individual donations. This could involve creating a nonprofit organization to oversee the scholarship program. 4) Promote the scholarship program: Advertise the scholarship program through various channels, including social media, college fairs, and community events. Reach out to high school counselors and community organizations to help spread the word. 5) Evaluate and improve the program: Collect data on the program's effectiveness and make improvements as needed. This could involve conducting surveys of scholarship recipients and their families, tracking their academic progress, and identifying areas for improvement. 6) Expand the program: As the program becomes more successful, consider expanding it to additional colleges and universities and increasing the number of scholarships awarded. In conclusion, creating a scholarship program that provides full-tuition scholarships to eligible students from low-income families would be an effective way to address the problem of limited access to higher education. By partnering with colleges and universities, fundraising, promoting the program, and evaluating its effectiveness, this program could provide life-changing opportunities to students who might otherwise be unable to afford college. By increasing financial aid, reducing the cost of college, promoting dual enrollment programs and online education, partnering with employers, and increasing financial literacy, we can help make college education more affordable and accessible to all.
