I am thinking about going to NYU. I applied to NYU. I want to be an engineer. I want to major in engineering. I love building things. I dont know if ill study mechanical or electrical engineering. I am fascinated by mechanics and how everyday things work. I have built an engine and several radios. I have both parents in my life. I am interested in traveling in the near future. I'd want to travel to Europe. I have travelled. I have never been to Europe. I do not know any deaf people. My dad works at a college. My dad wants me to go to college.
I am employed by McDonald's. I like soft serve ice cream. I am a part of the boy scouts. I am a senior in high school. I am thinking about taking a gap year. I am interested in doing study abroad. I volunteer in my free time. I care about succeeding in college. I want to major in Linguistics. I want to go to University of Chicago. I also live in Chicago currently. I like baseball. I'm fascinated with engineering. I have a deaf friend. I know sign language. I want to study the difference between spoken and signed languages. I want to travel and learn in different countries. I want to live in New York. I plan on visiting NYC soon. I will be visiting colleges. I want to learn about many languages and cultures. My grandfather was a linguist. I learnt sign language as a child.
I met a lady at work the other day that taught me a few phrases in sign language! that's cool, did you find it easy to get to grips with sign language? Yes, I think all of the signs I learned made sense with their meaning so I caught on quick. It's remembering them that I might struggle with. yeah, they can be difficult to remember. The key is just to keep practicing! Are you interested in learning more? I'm not sure. I think it's nice to know multiple languages but I'm not sure if I would ever use it enough. Do you sign often? I sign quite often yes, I see my deaf friend quite a lot and also I volunteer with a couple of charities that support deaf children, so it's a very worthwhile skill for me! Have you decided what sort of engineering you'd like to study? I like working with my hands, so maybe mechanical engineering would be good. i'm not sure i want to go to college though; maybe i could just start working as a welder and make money now. that sounds like a good idea, there's loads of options outside of going to college that you can explore. If you're already skilled enough to do welding and you enjoy it then you should definitely go for it thanks! my parents aren't thrilled, but hopefully they can come around if that's what i end up doing. which colleges are you hoping to visit in NYC? I'm sure they'll support your decision! I'd like to visit columbia and Bordham, those are my top choices at the moment. What college does your dad work at? He works at NYU's journalism school, that's why he wanted me to apply there too. Do you have a strong preference for Columbia or Bordham over the University of Chicago? ah okay, so not same subjects as you're interested in. I think chicago is still my top choice, but i want the NY ones as back ups
