I was born in Vietnam – a developing country where rice is the chief export and the industrialization is on the increase. In my place, farmers use their own hands to do the tilling in season. Seeing their exhausted and strenuous to accomplish such an arduous task, I crave to do something to help them reduce those fiddly jobs. Therefore, I choose my major to be chemical engineering since I relish doing and watching chemical reactions; but my prime goal is to come up with more and more new projects to come back and contribute to my home country and other nations as well. Furthermore, I come from a country with more than 50 ethnic groups and a wide diversity of cultural life; if I have a chance to be a Brigham Young University student, I will use my understanding to establish a cultural journal, publishing monthly as to accommodate our university community an orthodox source of knowledge about different lifestyle around the world. Despite doing chemical reactions, I personally have some experiences and interested in helping people and I surely know that in every community, not only in BYU, there are some people struggling with their life, study, or mental illness. Throughout my charity work in high school, I realized that many students share the same interest with me in giving assistance to those miserable people. I firmly believe students at BYU do want to lend a hand to their friends and a benevolent organization is where we gather people together and create a better university community for everyone. Consequently, I look for BYU as a sympathetic community to support me attain my project to improve our university to be a more desirable place for all students around the world.
