    Do you know what it feels like to have continuous sudden swarms of visions accompanied with

    voices of your deepest darkest fears? Imagine daily visits to a cinema you never bought a ticket for.
    Imagine wearing noise-isolating headphones on full blast with a playlist, you never arranged for yourself.
    Imagine each day of your life infiltrated with these unwanted entertainments, how would one cope? In
    my belief, the opportunity to study in a college as accepting and wide-ranging as Hofstra University
    would bolster my motivation to improve myself despite my mental distortions.

    Have you ever seen an open package of two-in-one ice cream, of which swirls in a mix as perfect
    as seeing a single-flavored box of delight? That is how perfectly my nightmare blends with my personal
    life. Everyday has been a battle between my very persistent attackers – my internal voices. No doubt,
    there were many people who have been involved in my struggle, and a handful of them broke as
    expected from any normal human being, but a few have gone beyond any human beings’ capacity for
    immense philia – “friendly” love. However difficult my situation has always been, I have found the inner
    strength necessary for excellence rooted from the love of the people who has always been there for me.
    Aside from this, the incentive to keep going originates from the passion to serve those who have been in
    situations as dreadful as mine, or even worse.

    Given the resilience optimal to survive storms as violent as what I have trekked through, and the
    vision of the university, I believe that Hofstra University will be the perfect medium for me to aid in the
    development of a brighter future for everyone, especially those who have been battling mental illnesses.
    On top of my aforementioned goal, it is also my priority to contribute as much as I can to the growth of
    the university. With the skills that I have harnessed through the years, and my passion to serve, I can
    ascertain that I will be of utility to the diverse community of Hofstra University.
