Personal Statement 閳?Kadie Bark

My name is Kadie Bark, I'm 15 years old and i am currently attending The Sheffield Springs Academy. I'm a pretty friendly, kind and patient person, and i am known to be bubbly and sociable, also i find it very easy to get on with people. I have a range of skills including:

Numeracy

Literacy

Computers

My creative instincts

I'm practical

Hard working

Dependable

I'm quick learner

I'd say that my biggest strength was probably creative writing/writing to describe as this is the area that i do better in and i enjoy the most.

My punctuality and attendance has been a little sketchy in the past, but over the past six months or so it has improved greatly and i aim to improve it even more.

I have a pretty good relationship with teachers and pupils. I get along with most pupils in our school and have never had any trouble in the past. I think my teachers would agree that i am a sensible student who at times can get a little distracted, but is dedicated to completing work/tasks.

My favourite subject in school would have to be English, as i enjoy writing, especially creative, and i love to read also. Another subject that i enjoy is Art, as i like learning new techniques and applying what i have learned to a piece of work.

I have been on a few school trips before, the main one being when a small group of pupils went on a trip to France, Normandy. While we were there we looked into the historical aspects of the city by visiting famous landmarks, such as the Bayeux War Cemetery. I have also taken part in school events such as the annual sports day.

While i was taking part in work experience, my job title was 'Nursery Assistant', the tasks which i had to fulfil include watching out for the children's safety at all times, making sure they were never bored and always had something productive to do and helping them settle down if they became upset, etc. The skills i gained from this experience are valuable life skills which will come in very handy in the future. I learned how to act around children, what to do in certain situations. For example if a child was misbehaving, they would have to apologise and have a five minute time out before rejoining the other children.

I think my relationship with both the children and staff was pretty good. The staff never had a problem with how i was working and at the end of my work experience they thanked me for doing such a great job. Also the children were sad to see me leave.

I did not actually get invited back to work at the nursery as if i was to have a official staff position there i would need to have some qualifications. And although i enjoyed my work experience, i don't think i will pursue working in a nursery as a career option.

When i am not at school there are a number of different things that i like to do including hanging out with friends, going to the Cinemas, going Bowling, Skating, making promotional graphics for websites, talking to friends on msn, moderating and posting in forums, etc.

I recently had a part time (Saturday) job at a hair salon, sweeping hair up, making tea, washing the customers hair, but i stepped down as i wanted to spend more time on coursework/revision.

My favourite way to spend my free time would be hanging out, and talking to friends as i feel it is very important to have a healthy social life.

I am also pretty into books and reading. My favourite book is Guitar Girl by Sarra Manning as i like her quick and witty style of writing. I also enjoy books from Meg Cabot as she has a similar style of writing. The books that i read are mainly teen oriented, but i do like to read other books now and again.

In the future i plan on going to college and taking part in a full time English Literature course and English Language course. Other courses i am interested in taking are Photography, Music, I.T and Health and Social Care.

I have not really made any ambitions yet as i am still trying to work out which career path i want to take.

My hopes for the future are that i will have figured out what i want to do in life, and i will have passed all of my chosen courses and i will be happily settled in a well paid job.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

Hi Kadie, you've done a fantastic job, you are honest and believable and seem very genuine. Like eiremanne says, I would change the bit that says hanging out, there are 2 other things I would change - firstly, don't say 'I have not really made any ambitions yet', I would just take that bit out,and delete the word 'pretty' all the way through - just say you are good at things, it reads better that way. Other than that, its really great, well done! Best of luck.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

HI Kadie,

This is fantastic, you are certainly very creative in your writing when i left school my personal statement consisted of "I want to have "a nice husband And 4 Kids" Lol.

The only thing i would change would be the wording "Hanging out with my friends" to something like socialising with my friends as hanging out sounds like standing on street corners!

Good luck with your future

Yes it's pretty good: but probably leave out the bit about "sketchy punctuality" if you don't need to say it why bother.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

I am delighted you did not go for a writing style that is terse nor stark. You have developed your thoughts well and manage the language very well, indeed. You are clearly going to be an asset to the world here at some point, and I am not making fun. Thank you very much for posting your personal statement. It hardly needs to be corrected. What needs to happen is all of your teachers need to be given a great big hug for having done so well by you! Best to you, always. - Chris.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

I didn't read all of it, but if you're wanting to use this to apply to college, I would make one MAJOR change.

The word "I" is ALWAYS capitalized, it should never be lowercase. Hope it helps.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

Your ambition should take you through. I wish you the very best of luck. You probably wont need it.

Is this ok for a personal statement, i am in year 11 and just about to go to college?

this is a good statement. rather than listing the skills that you have try and fit them into sentences somehow. try and rewrite the last lines from 'i have not really...' as many people might think that because of this you are not going to put as much effort into college, than if you did have ambitions and knew where you were heading in life

hope this helps

Do n e of you know any Sad poems or story thingys like the one i have below??

Once on a yellow piece of paper with green lines he wrote a poem And he called it "Chops" because that was the name of his dog And thats what it was all about And his teacher gave him an A and a gold star And his mother hung it on the kitchen door and read it to his aunts That was the year Father Tracy took all the kids to the zoo And he let them sing on the bus And his little sister was born with tiny toenails and no hair And his mother and father kissed a lot And the girl around the corner sent him a Valentine and signed with a row of X's and he had to ask his father what the X's meant And his father always tucked him in bed at night And was always there to do it

Once on a piece of white paper with blue lines he wrote a poem And he called it "Autumn" because that was the name of the season And that's what it was all about And his teacher gave him an A and asked him to write more clearly And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door because of its new paint And the kids told him that Father Tracy smoked cigars And left butts on the pews And sometimes they would burn holes That was the year his siter got glasses with thick lenses and black frames And the girl around the corner laughed when he asked her to go see Santa Claus And the kids told him why his mother and father kissed a lot And his father never tucked him in bed at night And his father got mad when he cried for him to do it

Once on a piece of paper torn from his notebook he wrote a poem And he called it "Innocence: A Question" because that was the question about his girl And that's what it was all about And his professor gave him an A and a strange steady look And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door because he never showed her That was the year that Father Tracy died And he forgot how the end of the Apostle's Creed went And he caught his sister making out on the back porch And his mother and father never kissed or even talked And the little girl around the corner wore too much makeup That made him cough when he kissed her but he kissed her anyway because that was the thing to do And at three A.M he tucked himself into bed his father snoring soundly

That's why on the back of a brown paper bag he tried another poem And he called it "Absolutely Nothing" Because that's what it was really all about And he gave himself an A and a slash on each damned wrist And he hung it on the bathroom door because this time he didn't think he could reach the kitchen

Do n e of you know any Sad poems or story thingys like the one i have below??

aah Wallflower! I love that poem!!! here's one I love- It's called Richard Cory (Simon and Garfunkel actually made a song from it)

Richard Cory

E.A. Robinson

Whenever Richard Cory went down town,

We people on the pavement looked at him:

He was a gentleman from head to crown,

Clean favored, and imperially slim.

And he was always quietly arrayed,

And he was always human when he talked;

But he still fluttered pulses when he said,

"Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.

And he was rich--yes, richer than a king--

and admirably schooled in every grace:

In fine, we thought that he was everything

To make us wish that we were in his place.

So on we worked, and waited for the light

And we went without meat, and cursed the bread;

And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,

Went home and put a bullet through his head.

or anything by Edgar Allen Poe

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Seems pretty good. I wish you would have censored the personal info before posting.

I noticed fulfill seems to be spelled wrong, is the way you have it correct for Canada/UK?

White space also makes things easier to read.

Try to identify some of the longer sentences and make them more bite-sized. People read shorter sentences more thoroughly.

Be more confident in what you say. Try seeing how any sentence with "I think" in it sounds if you remove that phrase.

Do you have to incriminate yourself? I know it's good to be humble, but you really should be tooting your own horn here. Obviously you can't overinflate achievements, but don't call yourself distracted (for example).

Even though I used a parenthetical statement above, don't do it in your submission. It's kind of like saying "ignore the part in parentheses."

Rather than saying that you haven't made a choice yet, I'd just say you are open to several career possibilities if you agree with that.

BTW, everybody wants to pass their classes and be paid well, I don't know if that's worth mentioning.

When you look to the future, don't focus on what you can get, focus on what you hope to contribute.

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Everything I read in your Testimonial made sense %26amp; it is well written

Best of look with your future

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

To be honest I think it is a bit long. There are a lot of bits in it that I would leave out particularly those referring to your admitted lack of attendance! And also the part about how you can be easily distracted. You have to sell yourself and make whoever reads it want to have you at their college.

Instead of talking about what you like to do in your spare time tell them why you want to do the course you are applying for. What made you choose it? Have you done anything in that area before?

Keep what you do in your spare time to a few short lines towards the end. They don't want a total bore after all who does not participate in any clubs etc.

Overall though, it is great the way you have listed your good qualities and the life experiences you have. Just a few little amendments here and there and I think you will have a winner :)

Remember the person reading it will be reading several hundred others so make it short, sweet and to the point. You need to gain their attention with the first few lines.

Wish you lots of luck - you will be great I'm sure :)

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Excellent! A couple of suggestions:

Get rid of capital letters in words like art, cinemas, bowling, skating, photography, etc.

Went on a trip to Normandy, France.

...washing customers' hair...

"I have not really made any ambitions..." - change to "any firm plans" or something similar.

Best of luck in the future!

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Hell no. If you make a list in writing a statement or essay, GAME OVER!!!

Anyway, I would suggest you run spell-check on that, there are many grammar errors. Looking at your usage of "favourite" and that you took a "little" trip to France, am I correct in assuming you're British?

Also, in the personal interests paragraph, do not capitalize anything, and it's "pastime". Especially if your said "biggest strength was probably creative writing/writing to describe as this Is the area that I do better In", don't make any mistake in grammar or things like that, I see multiple errors in that sentence alone.

Also in formatting, use justify to make the statement look nice.

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

I'm in Year 11 too! Brighton UK ...........

and I think that is is really good.

Mine isn't that long but I've already done it .

Looks good to me.

Good Luck with that. I had to do mine twice.

I think it is a bit too long.

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Man that is long. Probably the main prob. do not put computers put using computers. Just say your attendance is good. don't give them any doubt that your attendance is bad. There are a few other things. Just read through it carefully and adjust things. keep it simple and cut out anything that is not totally necessary.

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

Cut out anything where you admit weakness, especially the distracted part. Although it makes you sound like a nice person, bubbly has connotations of someone who doesn't know how to shut up and being an airhead, even though you come across as quite intelligent through the rest of the statement, so you might want to remove bubbly and just have sociable. You have to appear confident, but not cocky, so admitting bad points in statements is generally a bad idea.

It's too long, unimportant bits such as the trips you've been on and some of the details on your work experience could be removed too.

Go over the grammar, especially if you're using writing as your main hobby. Your spelling seems fairly good, but always double check it. I'd suggest using the spelling checker in Microsoft Word, if you don't have it at home your school should have it installed. I used to do a lot of writing myself, so I know that people rarely notice their own mistakes and keep making them, myself included.

It might be an idea to see what your teachers have put on your written references if your school sends them out, so you can work around it. Some places will also have people to help you write the statements and check them for you, though that tends to be colleges more than schools I think.

Good luck from someone who's also in the middle of writing his personal statement and also applying for English Language. If I can help any more, click on my name to IM or e-mail me.

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

You need to cut it down. Keep to your strengths and things that will make you sound attractive to the college. You don't want them to get bored reading it. A college will probably be impressed that you actually have taken the time and made the effort to write a personal statement whatever!

Is this ok for a personal statement? I'm in year 11 and applying for college soon.?

You know, for your age i think that is very well written. A lot of people here and their answers are expecting too much from you i'd say but if your going to change anything then i wouldnt change it too much, possibly shorten it though. You didnt mention when you were thinkning of starting college? I realise its no time soon as u haven't put any courses down.

Whats it for?

I don't mean to be disrespectful, but what is the purpose of the crocheted piece of material that many female apostolics and the like wear in their hair? (didnt want to call it a doile) is there a specific meaning for wearing it?

Whats it for?

Modesty...its in the bible somewhere and someone posted a question about that a long time ago...maybe u can do a search on similar questions.

Whats it for?

A mantilla

Used by women to cover the head to show respect in church.

I had to wear one at my confirmation, stupid looking thing.

Only ever see old women with them these day, where I'm from anyways.

What do/can I do about this? Lady burnt my daughter's ear?

Yesterday we were @ the mall. You know they have the little kiosks and people always want to bring you to theirs and show you their products. This lady had some special curling/flat irons. I decided to let her do my daughter's hair because she has curly hair and we had been looking for a flat iron. She went to do the first piece and my daughter jumped. At first I thought she might just be scared, she gets that way sometimes, or it was getting to warm on her ear. Well when the lady was done with a few strands and I went on to the next store I decided to check her ear. It was red, warm, %26amp; looked like it was blistering. I checked it this morning and it's blistered. She said it doesn't really hurt, but I'm a little pissed off. Burns don't really blister right away, right? Unless they're bad

What do/can I do? Her dad is pissed @ me for not doing anything yesterday, but it wasn't all blistered yesterday. The big thing is that the chick just brushed it off like she didn't do anything.

Tell the manager so that it doesn't happen again... but honestly, anything more seems like an overreaction. This isn't something that's likely to cause permanent damage... and are you honestly going to spend your time filing a small claims suit? It's a waste of time and money. Call the manager and get your daughter some burn cream.

And don't let strangers who aren't actual hairdressers use hot tools on your kid.

Too late now. If your daughter is alright, live and learn!

Get photos, see doctor, find out who it was.

File a complaint in small claims court.

If it was my daughter I would go back that sounds like a second degree burn to me!!!

Go back and talk to her manager that should not have happened!!!!!!

Wow, it was an accident....you said yourself that your daughter jumped, so it was basically your daughter's own fault. I would say that the only thing you could do would be to get your money back, but you didn't pay anything.

You're daughter jumped, so it's not her fault! It was an innocent accident. How old is your daughter??? I wouldn't have let some stranger go near my child with a hot iron for the purpose of trying to sell me something. I would leave it alone and learn from your mistake. She did not claim to be a professional, she was merely a salesperson. Even if she were, accidents happen. It's not life threatening even though it pisses you off, it will heal. Take care!

Just let it go. It's not a big deal. It'll heal up and go away.
