My Greatest Accomplishment by Hilkiah - August 2023 Scholarship Essay

Have you ever achieved a goal of yours that has made you feel overwhelmingly proud of yourself? I have accomplished that in my life by graduating high school and receiving my Diploma. I feel this has been my greatest accomplishment in life by far due to the fact that it made my mother proud, I accomplished my benchmarks, and it even gave me a great amount of opportunities after high school.

Overcoming such a task for about the second half of my high school career made me feel positive about myself. Graduating from high school gave me the confidence to handle any obstacle I had to face in life and conquer it. There were times when I had to sacrifice a couple of hours of sleep to have time to complete assignments from school. Such an experience helped me become a stronger being and for that I am thankful for that. I realized a lot of things on my graduation day; it was as if I had been blind the whole time that I was a high school student and was given my sight when I received my diploma. Recalling all of my involvement in high school, my graduation day led me to believe that it all made me who I am today and it enlightened me greatly. After June 5 th I felt I had grown in general as a person and it brought me bliss because it was exactly what I hoped to gain after my occupation as a high school.
