My passion is science.
I discovered my passion for science in the 8th grade when I was learning earth science, and since then I have not stopped loving it. One of the many reasons why I love science so much is because there is always new information to learn, and you can find new ways to solve problems in the world. Therefore, I will use the love that I have for science to inform the public of the dangers that the world faces. This is important because giving information allows people to make good choices.
Attending Camp SEA Land Voyage Seaward will help me explore my passion for science because the experience will help me decide if I want to pursue my dream of being a teacher or a sea scientist. This will also help me have knowledge of the sea and the problems that people are causing, for example, contamination. Once I have this information, I would use to make a difference.
"Marlene is an excellent candidate for Camp SEA Lab Voyage because of her incredible ability to work cooperatively, engage passionately in new learning experiences, and demonstrate dedication and perseverance through challenges. The teamwork component of the program is especially aligned with Marlene's unique skills and capacities, as well as the hands-on learning components which allow Marlene to thrive. Based on the ways in which I have seen Marlene work as a collaborator, peer mentor and tutor, and leader, the Camp SEA Lab Voyage would be an excellent fit for her, and her crew would be lucky to have her on board."
This program is really a life changing experience because not only did I learn life skills values, but it opened me up to a whole different perspective of life. After I accomplished this trip for five days without communication with the outside world, I realized that I give myself less credit than I deserved because this was the first time that I separated from my family, and I did pretty good. Yes!! I have to admit that I did cry the first night that I spent there, but it was all worth it because I got to spend time with amazing people, staff and also created new and great memories.
Sincerely, Marlene
