I have attached a sample here of my previous paid work for scholarship application. In 2019, my family and I lived in Seattle when my mother started working as a federal employee. Due to the nature of her job, she had to stay out of town for months. Before that my dad, siblings, and I haven’t lived without mom for such a long time. I am the elder child, I have a brother who is two years younger than me and a sister who is six years younger than me. When my mother was out of town all the responsibilities were on my shoulders as my dad was busy with his job he used to come back home late. I was in high school when for the first time, my mom had to go to another state for almost 6 months for her training period. Before leaving she told me to take care of my younger siblings and focus on my studies. When she left I was so upset and depressed all the time I was thinking about how I would manage all the tasks along with my studies because now I have to look after my siblings, home, and all the other stuff. It took me a few days to get normal, and after that, I started learning recipes to make meals for lunch and dinner when I get back home from school. I tried to engage my siblings in assisting me to clean the house, wash dishes, and preparing meals. During my free time, I used to take them out for a walk or to the nearby park. My sister is very good at basketball so we used to play with her. On weekends I went out for groceries with my dad. I get exhausted when my siblings used to fight over small things, but I try to keep myself calm and create new ideas to occupy them with other stuff so they do not fight with each other. It was such an arduous time for me to show myself as a responsible, mature elder brother. Sometimes, my siblings get sad as they miss their mother. I do miss her a lot but I don’t express my feelings in front of them as they get worried, I used to give them hope and courage. I had created a strong bond with my siblings during that time and now whenever they have any issue they feel very comfortable sharing it with me. The most important factor which I thought this phase of my life taught me was self-control, before that I was short-tempered and stubborn. However, now I think a lot before doing anything and I do not react immediately, I have learned how to react in intense circumstances. During this time I have learned a lot, and those few months have edified me on how to be selfless and caring. My interpersonal, problem-solving, creativity, responsibility, and flexibility skills have been established and enhanced. These are the few attributes that make a person a good leader. I have acquired these attributes during this experience which I know will benefit me in my upcoming personal as well as professional life.
