Hello,

I am applying to volunteer at my local hospital and in the application it asks: "Why are you interested in volunteering for us?" I am just wondering if someone here can help me put my motives into one single sentence or think of something better than what I have to offer to write in this spot. It's just 2 lines so I can't write much. Here are my motives for volunteering:

I want to continue my education at a post secondary institue. I want to eventually get my Bachelors of Science, go to Medical School, and become a doctor. I, however, have no idea what type of doctor I would like to be so I thought that by volunteering I can help out my community and at the same time look for a position which may interest me.

Can anyone help me make a solid sentence as to why I want to volunteer at my local hospital?

Sorry if this seems like a wall of text, but I appreciate anyone who is willing to take the time and effort to read it and help me out. Thank you.

Well it all started around 2 and half months ago when I went to prom with this girl. Some of you may remember a topic I posted then about dating her and all. Well we started dating and everything was going fine. We would meet at lunch time, after school, and whenever we could see each other and we would do some talking, but mostly just make out. This is very early on in the relationship. As time went on, she wanted to get a little bit more rowdy and we moved forward a little bit. We never had sex as we are both Muslim and cannot do such an act until marriage. Now one day decided to go swimming with me. It old my parents where I was going, but she decided that she would lie to her parents and tell them that she is going swimming with her friend, rather than me. So we went, and by the time we were finished, her mother came and actually spotted me with her. Her mother was furious and they both left.

She got grounded for a week and half. She could speak to no one, she could not go out, not use her cell phone or computer. There was no contact for a week and half. Then she got ungrounded, and a few days after that she had to go on vacation for 2 weeks to see family. Now ever since she got ungrounded, the first thing she told me was how many lectures she got from her parents and her older sisters. After that she simply told me that when we see each other now that she wants to slow it down on the action and talk more. I respected her decision and I agreed that we would definitely sit down and talk more. Couple days passed by, then she had to go on vacation to see family for 2 weeks. That is 2 weeks without contact again because she was out of the country.

Now ever since she got grounded, she basically lost her parents trust. She was only allowed to see me every 2 - 3 days, and when I did get to see her it was usually for a max of 2 hours. Also, remember she said she wanted to slow down on the action, so the most we ever did was a kiss her and there. This went on for about a month and to tell you the truth, I was miserable. I don't want to sound like a horn dog or anything, but I truly did miss the affection and when we got rowdy. It didn't mean everything to me, but deep down I thought that affection was something that kept the fire burning between us. The fact that I could only see her every 2 - 3 days for 2 hours max also made me miserable. I wanted to see her and spend more time with her, but her parents would not allow it. Also, getting grounded for a week and a half and then leaving for 2 weeks after that made me sad because I missed her.

All in all, with no affection and only being able to see her every so often made us grow apart. I was tired of it, and the expression on her face ever since she got back from vacation clearly showed me that she was tired of it. A relationship is supposed to be fun and this one was not, however we both really cared for one another. She wanted to meet with me 2 days ago and she sat down with me and told me that she does not see us together in the future. She said that the feeling she had for me before and now gone and that she cannot return the same amount of love that I give her. I agree that we were miserable because of how things were going. I realised it, but I waited because I thought things would change. She broke up with me and I was devastated, but now I am not that bad. I miss her, but I am not as sad as I thought I would be because deep down I knew it was coming and I was already miserable. I still care for her though, a lot. I was curious to know if I should give it some time and try again with her. I mean space between us was what made us grow apart in the first place, and her parents were big obstacles.

What do you guys think, should I move on or wait and see if I can get back with her. If I get back with her do you think that things would still work out the same before? I care for her so much and I know that if I give it time that I can move on, but I really care for her and I am unsure of what to do. Should I move on, or wait and see if I can get back with her?

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to ask anyone who has attended university or is currently attending university some questions. I want to attend a competitive university, however I am worried about the cost. I want to go into sciences and become some type of specialized doctor. Therefore, you can assume that this will take many years of schooling and a lot of money. I currently have saved up enough money for one year's worth of university and I am worried how I am going to pay for the rest. I understand that there are burseries, scholarships, and student loans. I have no volunteer experience and I don't do any extra curricular activities because my parents are always telling me to work to save up for university. Between work and school, I don't have time to do any volunteering and extra activities. Therefore, wouldn't it be hard to win scholarships? Don't organizations which offer scholarships look for people who are involved with their community and have extra activites? I want to do all these things to win scholarships, but I can't because I am always working because I need money for university. I can pay for my first year and then I am clueless how I am going to get through the rest. I don't want to go to school and then find myself in a position where I can't afford it. A good friend of mine told me that I have to stop worrying because it is very uncommon for people to pay for all their years of education. He told me that I will get student loans and if you are in financial need that you are their priority even if you don't volunteer or anything. I this true, will I make it?

Is it very hard to maintain a relationship while you are attending university? Assume that both parties are taking sciences.

Hey everyone. This may be a bit long bit I hope you all have the time to read it.

Well what happened is that I had my prom 2 nights ago. I was very fun and my date made my night. It was during the prom that I felt that I may actually like this girl. During the prom, I gently grab her hand and we interlace our fingers to show that I care for her. She responds and it seems like she does not mind. While the night went on, I started to gently stroke her legs just above her knees. She once again did not mind. After that we wanted to rest on my shoulder and hold hands, etc. So everything was fine, I was enjoying it and it seemed she was enjoying it. When she left to the washroom, one of her best friends, who was sitting at our table with her date, asked me randomly if I was going to kiss her tonight. I didn’t say anything and then she said I should. The night went on with the same thing we danced, we took a walk, and we took pictures together and with each other.

Once the prom was over and we were on the bus ride home (we all had to take bus transportation ), I put my arm around her and she once again started to rest on my shoulder. We held hands; she stroked my fingers with her thumb. I took my other hand and starting stroking it up and down her arm and just across her neck and I gently touched her chin, cheeks and bottom lip. She was fine, we didn’t say anything. I guess you could say we were talking with our bodies’ ahaha. Now, we get back, and we watch a graduation DVD. Once that was finished we went to her locker, she got new shoes because hew high heels were hurting. We stood up and I said that I saved this for last minute and I kissed her. She really seemed to like it and she immediately put her arm around me. We walked out, and we hung out with friends. After people were starting to leave, we went to some couches in the school sat down. Starting holding hands and stuff and she laid on my shoulder. I kissed her again for a little longer and she didn’t mind it. It was almost as if she wanted it. We walk outside because the admins of the school had to lock up. We go to the front of the school and I kiss her for much longer once again. Her parents arrive and I’m happy, she was happy and the night was over.

The next morning I woke up and couldn’t stop thinking about her and how fun the prom was with her. I was being stupid because u do stupid things when u like another girl and I go on facebook and tell her I love her more then she knows and that I can’t stop thinking about her. I also apologized in the message if I had gone to fast for her. She replied later that day and said that there was no need to apologize and that we did sort of rush into things but she didn’t mind a great deal. She said that we can hang out soon and she listed some dates when she was free. I said next Saturday at the movies would be great. Further down the message she included that she was flattered that I loved her and that she really likes me too, but she doesn't think we're ready to say that. She said that if I want to say it, that she is fine with it but that I need to understand that she doesn't believe in it and that she probably won't for a very long time.

This is where I am confused... I am unsure if she feels the same way towards me. At the prom it seemed like she actually wanted something to go on. She went for my hand sometimes and stroked my legs too and all that. Her friend told me straight out to kiss her as if she really likes me. But the message she sent, or the ending of it anyways seems like she feels a whole different way. It all I have been thinking about lately and I'm unsure if I should be waiting around for something. Do you all think it could happen? I’m graduating and she is in grade 11 so she still has one more year of high school to go. I don't know I like this girl so much. I can't ask her out though because we are both taking hard courses in this semester and we just wouldn’t have time for each other and we know that. On MSN she said that we can't be friends with benefits or anything and just simple friends. Does that mean that the one night we had together at prom will most likely be the only thing between us? Do you guys think she likes me even after what she said? What advice do you all have to give me?
