Hasan Al - Jamaly

My name is Hasan Al - Jamaly. I have only been in the United States for almost a year now, and this foreign system still seems a bit peculiar to me. I came to Saint Louis, Missouri, from my home town of Amman, Jordan. Living in a Third World Country with a lack of opportunities provided for its people, I grew up with a constant dream that I will once begin a new life at a place that actually appreciates hard workers and awards them for their achievements, rather than treat them as if they are just another member of the work force built to serve a country. Once I came to the United States, I realized that the world is my oyster, and that with the help of scholarships and financial aid, I can achieve my dream of becoming a successful doctor. To me, that was something I could never have done. However, I am now hopeful that the land of dreams and chances will allow me to actually pursue my ambitions without fear of being unsuccessful.
