Summary
Through these two very different job experiences I've had, I've learned about two very different feelings. At my first job, I felt anxious, I had to think and move very fast, and answer questions on the spot. At my second job, I had very particular verbiage, everything was routine based, and slow moving. I think I'm a hard worker, and fast learner. The restaurant industry excites me, and I think it's really improved and impacted my skills with new people, and problem solving.

Accomplishments
I was accepted into The National Honor Society, my senior year of high school. This was very exciting for me, because I loved the feeling of hard work paying off. In my freshmen year of college, I made the Dean's list, for my grades, and therefore my GPA. I feel proud, because over the past few years, I've really found a love for learning, and it feels good to be recognized for that.
