Life can be so shallow and unrewarding if you are living each day
with no plan for the future and little thought toward helping others.
This may seem like an obvious statement, but I come across people
every day who haven’t had the opportunity to realize this truth for
themselves just yet, and they are miserable because of it. I feel very
fortunate that the goals I have formed for myself over the past few
years are helping me make the most of every opportunity that
presents itself, allowing me to live a life with true meaning.I’am an
Orphan, who has only lived with his mother, sisters and brother and
never known his father cause I was so young when he died.One day when I was in high school, in the west side of my Country (Danane/IvoryCoast) and the time Liberia were in civil war, UN (HCR) people were in town, with their Headquarter Based in this area. It was with Diplomacy they came. At first Sight it was so amazing to see them working with endeavours and Voluntary. Who would want to waste glorious sunny days moving from his country to another one to help suffering ones pretending to be Sister Theresa or Jesus-Christ? Only Voluntary People can do it. But after Noticing it at once, I became absolutely riveted by the nuances of this organization, and soon began losing sleep as I tried to craft clever Political and diplomatic gambits, hatch devious schemes, and better understand the Ways ever-changing dynamics. As my friends and I spent the second half of the High school period to get
information on how to be involve into this organisation, always be
behind the workers , my parents grinned knowingly. We even get a
small job opportunity with them the time Liberia was in war(see it
on my cv).How could I resist being fascinated with Political
Sciences and Diplomacy, they asked me, when I incessantly read
about international affairs, and liked nothing more than debating
politics over dinner? How could I resist being fascinated, when I
had spent most of my Life time in Africa Society (and, much more
briefly, bad news from all Africa), witnessing first-hand the ways in
which countries differ socially, culturally, and politically?
Though my passion for foreign policy and international affairs
undoubtedly dates back to high school, I never had the chance to
fully develop this interest before college. Once I arrived at The
University of Cocody/Abidjan/Cote d’Ivoire, however, I discovered
that I could learn about international relations through both my
academics and my extracurricular activities. Academically, I
decided to concentrate in English Study, and, within American
Studies. Some of the most memorable of these classes included Political views in the U.S, in which we discussed what role it concerns ought to play in international relations; Civilizations in which I learned about the social, economic, and political development and Causes and Prevention of War, which focused on unearthing the roots of conflict and finding out how bloodshed could have been avoided. I am investigating the strange pattern of American Civilization, and trying to determine which explanatory variables are best able to account for it.
Interestingly, I think that I have learned at least as much about
American Civilization through my extracurricular in University as I
have through my classes. For the past three years, for instance, I
researched topics of global importance (e.g. the violent
disintegration of states, weapons of mass destruction in the Middle
East and civil war in Africa), wrote detailed study guides discussing
these subjects, and then moderated hundreds of students as they
debated the topics and strove to resolve them.Trying to peg down a country’s
elusive ‘national interest,’ clashing over thorny practical and
philosophical issues, making and breaking alliances — - Model UN
was basically a simulation of how Politics and diplomacy really
works.
Thankfully, I have also found time over the past few years tocultivate interests and skills unrelated to model UN and foreign
policy. One of the most important of these has been community
service. As a volunteer for HCR, Danané, Côte d’Ivoire as an Agent, and as a Residential
teacher of a weekly high school class on current events, Teacher of
English as a Foreign Language, Residential Teacher. Planned and prepared
classes for students, organised and co-ordinated social activities for
students, and sight-seeing trips around Abidjan, I have, whenever
possible, used my time and talents to benefit my community.
Another more recent interest of mine is the fascinating realism of
business. I spent 6 years till today doing business, Handled my own
business included: sale of computer, cars, Human clothes... Since then, I
have avidly followed the stock market, and become very interested
in how businesses interact and respond to strategic threats
(perhaps because of the similarities between business competition
and the equally cutthroat world of Politics and diplomatic).A final
passion for me is writing but I never expose and edited it, I find very
little as satisfying as filling a blank page with words –
Because of my wide range of interests, I have not yet decided what
career path to follow into the future. In the short run, I hope to study
abroad for a year, in the process immersing myself in another
culture, and deepening my personal and academic understanding
of international affairs. I could achieve this
admittedly ambitious goal by advancing within a nonprofit group,
think tank, or major international company. Perhaps most
appealingly, I could also achieve this goal by entering public
service and obtaining some degree of influence over actual foreign
policy decisions -— that is, becoming a player myself in the real-life
game of Diplomacy. And also may be give my word for the
changement of new politics view in Africa.
