You fall in love with a university librarian at first sight in your freshman year.

A/N: Finally after years I have finished this piece! Reader-chan is a little dramatic and pathetic, but who wouldn't when you're in love with Emma?

I come in the library for books and I come out leaving my heart.

When you look up at me my shadow falls across your face and it fills your skin— my breath escapes, you smile, your brown eyes shimmering like ocean light. It’s stitched into my veins, and my blood flows under its radiance.

I want to know you.

❧

You fall in love with a university librarian at first sight in your freshman year.

❧

Her name is Emma, and she greets every student with a spring-sweet smile, the corners of her eyes crinkling cutely under the chamber light. When you come up to the reception desk for the first time, she emerges like sunrise and you have to squeeze your eyes shut because you’re afraid to get blind.

“Hi!” she says. Her voice tinkles like morning bellchimes, waking you up completely. Then upon seeing you, she blinks once, twice, a little put out, before she recovers and her blossom smile returns. “Oh, you must be a new student! I’m Emma! Do you already have your library card? How can I help you?”

Her presence glows radiant in the sea of the mahogany shelves and the sleepy faces of students and other librarians present. It feels energizing, enough to jolt you into coherence.

“Bluagjjfadh,” you say.

Emma giggles at your answer, and there’s something in the way the universe brings out the softness of her laughter, cotton candy to your ears. Your heart pounds, your palms sweat. The world turns in on its axis.

“Hello?” Emma says, catching your attention seconds after you drifted away in panic.

“H-Hi,” you reply. She smiles again, you gulp.

Oh dear.

❧

She manages the fifth floor, where books on arts and humanities (academic and literary alike) are housed, and isn't that a funny prank pulled on you by fate? Every moment you spend your time on this floor, you find yourself laying your borrowed books on a table that provides an unencumbered view of her doing work on her station. And as you're on your twelfth paragraph in your current read your eyes drift upwards and towards Emma talking to a confused freshman who doesn't know how a library operates. Oh, how you want to drag that student into a corner and impress upon them the force of your intent: Do not inconvenience her! Work it out on your own! But you know Emma would gladly help any student in need without judgment and prejudice. You've been a recipient of that kindness—and that smile, the sort of smile you cradle and tuck in between your heart and your ribs, secret like a love letter.

The yearning has become so implacable that in one of your assignments, Professor Arthur is forced to talk to you after class and asks, “Why don't you try other genres, like detective fiction?”

“And then have the detective fall in love with the murderer?”

His face contorts; his hand twitches like it's looking for a cup of coffee—or a bottle of alcohol.

“No romance of any sort,” Professor Arthur says. “Can you do it?”

“I can’t promise anything.”

He sighs and mutters, “I should have you talk to Dazai—he might know how to handle you better.”

❧

Your crush on Emma has persisted up to your senior year, and it's a miracle that it hasn't reached her awareness at all, because you're being so obvious about your pining that your roommate Mai and her best friend Sasuke had staged several interventions throughout your college years. It came to a point where Sasuke had to set up a trap in the library and Mai had to tackle you onto the floor to prevent you from picking a fight with an MBA student who's flirting with the librarian.

“Let me go,” you had said. “I can take him.”

“No,” Mai had replied firmly, clinging to you like both your lives depended on it. “We don't want to spend the whole night at Pirate King Captain’s office.”

“Shh! Don’t say that name! What if he’s actually lying in wait here and he heard us?!”

And if Emma had any inkling about your longing for her, she never showed it; she always has that sunshine smile and a cheerful greeting for you, and always—always—you hope, and you dream.

❧

“I’m doomed,” you lament on your bed, face smushed against your fluffy pillow. Across the room, Mai looks up from her sketches and angles you an unimpressed look.

“No, you’re not.” The staccato of the rapid clicking of a mechanical pencil, a brush of papers, and the drag of chair-legs, and Mai is striding towards your bed, plopping down next to you. Your face refuses to leave the pillow, but you can feel your roommate’s judging stare. “In fact, I think this is for the best.”

Now you lift your head to glare at her. “Why? You don’t want me to see her anymore?”

Mai rolls her eyes. “No, dummy. We’re graduating this year! That means you can face her equally from then on.”

“But I’m not going to see her after I graduate!”

“Says who?”

You bite your lip. Mai has a point: there’s really nothing stopping you from staying in town after you graduate. It’s just your sense of responsibility urging you to go home—at the other side of the country—and seek work there. On some occasions, you miss your family and want to see them in person. Zoom calls aren’t enough; you long to hug them and feel their warmth. But on other occasions, you’re perfectly fine with living here, where more opportunities in your field come a-calling.

After a prolonged silence Mai sighs aloud. The bed shifts again, and she’s standing over you, frowning like you’re an incomplete puzzle and the last missing piece has been found to be eaten and digested by a hungry golden retriever. “Fine!” she spits, and you recoil, genuinely surprised at the vehemence of her reaction. “I’m going to need Backup Number Four.”

You blink, bewildered.

“Excuse me?”

❧

Just before finals week, you return the borrowed books to the library. Emma's back is on you, but she turns with a bright grin as she hears your footsteps. “Good morning to my favorite book lover!”

You could have proposed then and there, your heart swelling until it's screaming for the emergency room. It's an exhilarating feeling, to know that you're her favorite. But you try to act all nonchalant as you hand her the books. Most of them are monographs on literary criticism, but a couple of them are romantic poetry and compilation of love letters written by famous authors to their spouses.

“Next week's finals, yes?” she continues, updating your records. She looks up and gifts you an encouraging smile. “Good luck!”

“Y-Yeah, thanks.” And then, out of nowhere: “I'm also graduating after the semester's over.”

Surprise shifts Emma's whole expression. Her fingers pause and hover over the laptop keyboard. A breath, inhale, exhale, then a brief bite of lip; she recovers with another grin. “That's wonderful! Congratulations! Time sure does fly, doesn't it? I still remember the first time you borrowed a book here. I'm gonna miss you for sure.”

She remembers, and something unclogs within you. You blink back the threat of tears, valiantly ignore the ache in your heart, and soldier on with, “Yeah, I'll miss you too.”

This time, you don't linger. You hurry to the exit, ignoring Emma's call of your name.

❧

You're watching Yves Kloss, president of the Graduate Students Association, slice the chocolate truffle cake with delicate care and thoroughness. Sitting across from you the young man, with his fancy outfit and accessories, couldn't look more out of place at this campus cafe, with its cheap furniture and its whimsical air conditioner, which malfunctions every now and then, but with its admittedly delicious pastries, thanks to that one part-time working student who comes from a line of bakers. As an undergrad, you don't know why Yves suddenly materialized before you and dragged you off to this coffee shop and ordered a set of cake slices and the most expensive coffee on the menu (which isn't really saying much; it's just white chocolate latte). Just as you were about to declare to put it on Professor Arthur's tab, Yves had his wallet out already, and when he glanced at you and saw your expression, he scowled and told you to look for a vacant table.

“Here,” he pronounces, pushing the plate of black velvet cake in your direction. This is followed by a large hot double chocolate latte. You wonder whether Yves intends to spike your blood sugar with this chocolatey assault. “Enjoy them. I can't have you starving while I'm explaining the mechanics of poetry reading we're organizing this end of term.”

You do a double take.

“I'm sorry, but what are you talking about?”

A chunk of cake dangles close to Yves's mouth. The fork is returned to the plate. He frowns.

“What do you mean, what am I talking about? Didn't your friends tell you?”

“About what?”

“About your entries to the poetry reading event.” Yves squints. Then his expression smoothens into understanding. Then, for an inexplicable reason, pity. “The GSA is organizing a cultural event the week after finals. There's an art exhibit, musical performances, and poetry reading. Everyone's invited to participate. Your friends—Mai and Sasuke—submitted your poems for the reading, and a couple of them qualified. So now, I'm orienting you about what to do.”

“They did what.” You rifle through your memories about any hint of their betrayal. Then you narrow your eyes at Yves. “Don't tell me you're Backup Number Four!”

“Oh dear.” Yves sighs, and gestures at the coffee and cake. “So they really didn't tell you. In any case you just have to show up at this time and venue and read your poems. The audience will be a mix of undergrads, grad students, and even faculty, but I doubt it will be a large crowd. No need to get nervous.”

“I still don't understand how reading my lovesick poetry to an audience will benefit me.”

Curiously enough, Yves grows visibly uncomfortable. “Well, about that ...”

And as he reveals the event location, your soul cartwheels away from your body and drowns itself in the carafe of black coffee a group of sleep-deprived architecture students two tables from your left have been worshipping upon.

As consolation, Yves offers, “Go on. The cake's delicious. Nothing like sugar to soothe your worries away.”

Accepting his revelatory kindness, you despondently demolish your cake, and let yourself get distracted by somebody sobbing by the window. What is that person going through, you mildly wonder. Maybe the two of you share similar problems, and a part of your heart goes out to that person in quiet commiseration …

—until a hot guy who looks like he came straight from a gentleman’s photoshoot approaches the crying person and suddenly you feel alone in your struggle.

❧

By the time your turn comes up the lobby of the library has been filled with people. Your palms begin to sweat, and you almost trip stepping into the makeshift stage. Mai and Sasuke are sat on the floor by the edge of the stage, wide-eyed support and cheer. You've forgiven the two of their betrayal, after a screaming match (with Mai) that evolved into a heartfelt conversation (with Mai, but with jokes contributed by Sasuke here and there). There was tears and snot and astrophysics puns and a hug that lasted thirty seconds because Mai had reserved a spa package that lasts an entire day for you, free of charge. Apparently Mai's occasional model has some connections to all kinds of things.

You can spy Professor Dazai in the crowd, and next to him is Professor Arthur. Suddenly a different anxiety manifests inside you, and the urge to edit your poems right then and there overtakes your previous concerns.

Yves, who’s emceeing the program, introduces you to the audience. And when the polite applause winds down, you clear your throat and grab the microphone.

“I come in the library for books and / I come out leaving my heart ...”

During the first few lines, your voice trembles, still nervous, but eventually you gain ground, and confidence fuels you to use your hands to gesture the words and the emotions intertwined in them. You feel your face rearrange according to the sentiments of your phrases. In a surprise twist you've come to appreciate the pleasure of performing your poetry to a curious but welcoming crowd.

“... fingers in want of entwining / oh! must I braid my longing into your hair—”

At the far end of the hall, where the reception counter is, stands Emma, who's watching you in rapt attention, book clutched to her chest.

The freeze is so abrupt, your mouth clamping shut, that it has the front row murmuring in confusion. But Mai's sudden whisper of your name snaps you back, and you scramble to salvage the remains of your blunder. Your heart is hammering inside your ribs, you're sweating like you just lost a volleyball game; but you swallow the nerves and continue onward as if the woman you're in love with isn't watching you recite love poetry about her.

And when you finish to a modest applause (Professor Dazai's clapping above his head and Professor Arthur whistles twice), you robotically turn around and march off the stage and out of the library.

Except Mai and Sasuke are barring you from leaving, their arms snaked around yours, rendering you immobile.

“Betraying me again, Mai, Sasuke?” You struggle against their solid grip. Sasuke, for all his lankiness, is shockingly strong. “Not satisfied with submitting my poems behind my back?”

But Mai is undeterred. “Don't forget—that spa package includes hot bamboo massage, sauna, facial treatment, and sugar scrub!”

That is truly a strong argument. “Dammit!”

Once the program ends, you endure several minutes of congratulatory greetings from your professors, a box of cake from Yves and the GSA, and praise from some of the audience.

When you peer over the reception counter, Emma is no longer there. You exhale quietly, unsure whether to feel disappointed or relieved. Mai senses your unease, and she lays a hand on your shoulder.

As the audience files away and the GSA members begin cleaning up, you offer Yves some assistance but he adamantly refuses. “I'm not letting an undergrad do our job! Go home and enjoy the cake!”

A tap on your arm catches your attention, and you turn to see Emma behind you, killing you inadvertently with her daylight smile.

You could have run away. You could have. But your feet feel like lead and you're unable to lift even one toe.

Yves, sensing the weird tension in the air, stealthily slinks away.

“Do you have time?” Emma asks.

Gaping at her, you can only nod in affirmation. A few paces away, you can see Mai hitting Sasuke in excitement as they watch you and Emma locked in a confrontation.

“Follow me.”

She leads you outside the building where flowerbeds line the walls and a lamp is alit at a corner. Under the tungsten light her complexion seems warmer, more ethereal, and the curve of her mouth more open and approachable. You want to kiss her, like this. The dusky sky and the yellow-warm tinge of the lamplight, and you want to kiss her, like this.

“So,” she begins, “those poems. They're good.”

“T-Thank you.”

“They're also romantic,” she continues, ignorant (or oblivious?) to your mounting, visible panic. “Those chapbooks you kept borrowing finally paid off, huh.”

“I—guess ...”

“I particularly like the second one! There's a larger window to the speaker's thoughts and emotions toward their object of love.”

“Y-Yeah ...”

“The image of braiding your longing into one's hair is striking.”

You gulp, wiping away the sweat pooling on your collar with the back of your hand.

Then Emma pauses as if in thought. A quick glance at your expression and she tilts her head, and says directly: “The poems—they're about me, am I correct?”

Every nerve in your body bursts and you clutch your face and sob, “I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I wasn't planning to show them to anybody, much less read them in public!”

Emma startles, not expecting your reaction, but then she tentatively takes a step towards you and brings a hand near your shoulder. “It's okay,” she soothes, “it's okay. I'm not angry at all. You're very good; don't hide your talent.”

An embarrassing sniff. “But ...”

The hand finally descends and makes contact with your shoulder. Emma pats it consolingly.

“Aren't you uncomfortable with me, now that you know I'm in love with you?”

Eyes widening, Emma halts. “'In love'?”

Fuck.

Your sobbing comes back in full force. Emma, now herself in panic, resumes consoling you, which is ridiculous and mortifying because here you are, in front of the person you're in love with, being calmed by the very person you're in love with, because you basically announced to the world that you're in love with said person, and you don't even know if said person loves you back.

“Hey, hey,” Emma hastens, another step forward. Even in the midst of your chaotic emotions, you can still smell her perfume. A light rosy spring scent; it fits her. “It's okay! I'm just surprised. I didn't expect you to feel so strongly about me.”

“Do you—” a sob “—want me—” a hiccup “—to go away? Leave you alone?”

It will be devastating, but you'll understand.

“I've been in love with you for years, you know,” you say, because fuck it, you might as well confess this way. What is pride after all that's happened? “I know I shouldn't, and I tried my best to control my feelings but I failed, and I'm graduating in a couple of weeks and I will never see you again.”

You rub away the remaining tears in your eyes, and you refuse to look at Emma for fear of seeing something dreadful in her expression. She's also quiet, and it is a quiet that you don't want to examine. Ultimately, you decide to bow out after gathering your leftover dignity, thanking Emma for her kindness and wishing her all the best. You resolve not to look back because you've never been a strong person in matters of the heart, and this has always been a battle you're fated to lose.

But then, you hear Emma's voice, wonder in her tone:

“You are graduating soon, aren't you? Isn't that a good thing? What will you do after? I hope you don't stop writing. I really like your poems.”

A beat.

“It would be nice if you keep writing and publishing your poems. I'd also love to read stories by you! By then you're no longer a student, right? And you'd have a few more years of life experience. I'd like to see you again, when that time comes.”

And it's as if the world snaps into focus. Everything turns silent, Emma's words echoing in your head. You look up and she's smiling, all sunlight, blinding, despite the benighted sky.

“That's ...” You swallow, afraid but also emboldened. “... not a no.”

Laughter, prismatic. “That's not a no.”

You breathe, closing your eyes. “Okay.”

A smile blooms in your own lips. For once, it’s all right to hope, to dream.

“Okay.”

⇼

Endnotes:

After your graduation, you went back to your hometown to look for work. You're sad that you're separated from your friends and Emma, but you keep in touch through social media. You chat with Emma every now and then, even video calling her occasionally. Eventually you find a job as an editorial assistant in a magazine. You also continue writing fiction and poetry in your free time. After one year of working and writing, one of your poems got published in a well-known literary journal. You excitedly send the news to Emma, who congratulates you joyfully. This goes on for two more years, until you and she decide to meet up. You've slightly mellowed out, a little more mature, and can now provide for yourself. When you finally reunite with Emma face to face, you give her a bouquet of roses (bought at Vlad's flower shop) and formally ask her out. She says yes. (btw Emma's older than you by 4-5 years. She started her first year as a librarian just as you started your first year in college.)

He's not your thesis adviser, but you and Professor Arthur are close, in the sense that he sees much talent in you and he wants to nurture it. You're close enough that you can get away with telling the campus cafe barista to charge your order on his tab whenever you're annoyed with him.

Mouri Motonari got his nickname of Pirate King Captain when he caught a group of senior undergrads vandalizing then-President Yoshiaki's statue. With his manner of speech and his rough persona and his choice of punishment (a thorough cleaning of the whole campus), he was called Pirate King Captain meanly by the undergrads. Some freshman passing by heard it, and it stuck ever since. Motonari loathes that nickname. Legend says that when you say his nickname three times he will appear behind you and force you to clean the main building.

After your conversation with Emma outside the library, you return to Mai and Sasuke to relay what happened, and you three went to a bar to get hammered as celebration (you're all of legal age now, don't worry).

That spa day is arguably the best day of your life. (Overtaken in the future by the day you ask Emma out and she says yes.)

Colin Powell

Colin Luther Powell (born April 5, 1937) is an American politician and retired four-star general in the United States Army. During his military career, Powell also served as National Security Advisor (1987–1989), as Commander of the U.S. Army Forces Command (1989) and as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1989–1993), holding the latter position during the Persian Gulf War. Powell was the first, and so far the only, Jamaican American to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was the 65th United States Secretary of State, serving under U.S. President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2005, the first black person to serve in that position.

Powell was born in New York City in 1937 and was raised in the South Bronx. His parents, Luther and Maud Powell, immigrated to the United States from Jamaica. Powell was educated in the New York City public schools, graduating from the City College of New York (CCNY), where he earned a bachelor's degree in geology. He also participated in ROTC at CCNY and received a commission as an Army second lieutenant upon graduation in June 1958. His further academic achievements include a Master of Business Administration degree from George Washington University.

Powell was a professional soldier for 35 years, during which time he held many command and staff positions and rose to the rank of 4-star general. His last assignment, from October 1, 1989, to September 30, 1993, was as the 12th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest military position in the Department of Defense. During this time, he oversaw 28 crises, including Operation Desert Storm in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. He also formulated the Powell Doctrine.

Following his military retirement, Powell wrote his best-selling autobiography, My American Journey. In addition, he pursued a career as a public speaker, addressing audiences across the country and abroad. Prior to his appointment as Secretary of State, Powell was the chairman of America's Promise – The Alliance for Youth, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to mobilizing people from every sector of American life to build the character and competence of young people. He was nominated by President Bush on December 16, 2000, as Secretary of State. After being unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate, he was sworn in as the 65th Secretary of State on January 20, 2001.

Powell is the recipient of numerous U.S. and foreign military awards and decorations. Powell's civilian awards include the Presidential Medal of Freedom (twice), the President's Citizens Medal, the Congressional Gold Medal, the Secretary of State Distinguished Service Medal, and the Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal. Several schools and other institutions have been named in his honor and he holds honorary degrees from universities and colleges across the country. Powell is married to the former Alma Vivian Johnson of Birmingham, Alabama. The Powell family includes son Michael (ex-chairman of the Federal Communications Commission); daughters Linda and Anne; daughter-in-law Jane; and grandsons Jeffrey and Bryan.

In 2016, while not a candidate for that year's election, Powell received three electoral votes for the office of President of the United States.

Early life and education

Powell was born on April 5, 1937, in Harlem, a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan, to Jamaican immigrants, Maud Arial (née McKoy) and Luther Theophilus Powell. His parents were both of mixed African and Scottish ancestry. Luther worked as a shipping clerk and Maud as a seamstress. Powell was raised in the South Bronx and attended Morris High School, from which he graduated in 1954. (This school has since closed.)

While at school, Powell worked at a local baby furniture store, where he picked up Yiddish from the eastern European Jewish shopkeepers and some of the customers. He also served as a Shabbos goy, helping Orthodox families with needed tasks on the Sabbath. He received a Bachelor of Science degree in Geology from the City College of New York in 1958 and has said he was a 'C average' student. He later earned an MBA degree from the George Washington University in 1971, after his second tour in Vietnam.

Despite his parents' pronunciation of his name as , Powell has pronounced his name since childhood, after the World War II flyer Colin P. Kelly Jr. Public officials and radio and television reporters have used Powell's preferred pronunciation.

Military career

Powell was a professional soldier for 35 years, holding a variety of command and staff positions and rising to the rank of general.

Training

Powell described joining the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) during college as one of the happiest experiences of his life; discovering something he loved and could do well, he felt he had "found himself." According to Powell:

It was only once I was in college, about six months into college when I found something that I liked, and that was ROTC, Reserve Officer Training Corps in the military. And I not only liked it, but I was pretty good at it. That's what you really have to look for in life, something that you like, and something that you think you're pretty good at. And if you can put those two things together, then you're on the right track, and just drive on.

Cadet Powell joined the Pershing Rifles, the ROTC fraternal organization and drill team begun by General John Pershing. Even after he had become a general, Powell kept on his desk a pen set he had won for a drill team competition.

Upon graduation, he received a commission as an Army second lieutenant. After attending basic training at Fort Benning, Powell was assigned to the 48th Infantry, in West Germany, as a platoon leader.

Vietnam War

In his autobiography, Powell said he is haunted by the nightmare of the Vietnam War and felt that the leadership was very ineffective.

Captain Powell served a tour in Vietnam as a South Vietnamese Army (ARVN) advisor from 1962 to 1963. While on patrol in a Viet Cong-held area, he was wounded by stepping on a punji stake. The large infection made it difficult for him to walk, and caused his foot to swell for a short time, shortening his first tour.

Powell returned to Vietnam as a major in 1968, serving as assistant chief of staff of operations for the in the 23rd (Americal) Infantry Division. During the second tour in Vietnam he was decorated with the Soldier's Medal for bravery after he survived a helicopter crash and single-handedly rescued three others, including division commander Major General Charles M. Gettys, from the burning wreckage.

Powell was charged with investigating a detailed letter by 11th Light Infantry Brigade soldier Tom Glen, which backed up rumored allegations of the My Lai Massacre. He wrote: "In direct refutation of this portrayal is the fact that relations between American soldiers and the Vietnamese people are excellent." Later, Powell's assessment would be described as whitewashing the news of the massacre, and questions would continue to remain undisclosed to the public. In May 2004 Powell said to television and radio host Larry King, "I was in a unit that was responsible for My Lai. I got there after My Lai happened. So, in war, these sorts of horrible things happen every now and again, but they are still to be deplored."

After the Vietnam War

Powell served a White House Fellowship under President Richard Nixon from 1972 to 1973. During 1975–1976 he attended the National War College, Washington, D.C.

In his autobiography, My American Journey, Powell named several officers he served under who inspired and mentored him. As a lieutenant colonel serving in South Korea, Powell was very close to General Henry "Gunfighter" Emerson. Powell said he regarded Emerson as one of the most caring officers he ever met. Emerson insisted his troops train at night to fight a possible North Korean attack, and made them repeatedly watch the television film Brian's Song to promote racial harmony. Powell always professed that what set Emerson apart was his great love of his soldiers and concern for their welfare. After a race riot occurred, in which African American soldiers almost killed a White officer, Powell was charged by Emerson to crack down on black militants; Powell's efforts led to the discharge of one soldier, and other efforts to reduce racial tensions. During 1976–1977 he commanded the 2nd Brigade of the 101st Airborne Division.

A "political general"

In the early 1980s, Powell served at Fort Carson, Colorado. After he left Fort Carson, Powell became senior military assistant to Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger, whom he assisted during the 1983 invasion of Grenada and the 1986 airstrike on Libya.

In 1986, Powell took over the command of V Corps in Frankfurt, Germany, from Robert Lewis "Sam" Wetzel.

Following the Iran–Contra scandal, Powell became, at the age of 49, Ronald Reagan's National Security Advisor, serving from 1987 to 1989 while retaining his Army commission as a lieutenant general.

In April 1989, after his tenure with the National Security Council, Powell was promoted to four-star general under President George H. W. Bush and briefly served as the Commander in Chief, Forces Command (FORSCOM), headquartered at Fort McPherson, Georgia, overseeing all Army, Army Reserve, and National Guard units in the Continental U.S., Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. He became the third general since World War II to reach four-star rank without ever serving as a division commander, joining Dwight D. Eisenhower and Alexander Haig.

Later that year, President George H. W. Bush selected him as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

Powell's last military assignment, from October 1, 1989, to September 30, 1993, was as the 12th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest military position in the Department of Defense. At age 52, he became the youngest officer, and first Afro-Caribbean American, to serve in this position. Powell was also the first JCS Chair who received his commission through ROTC.

During this time, he oversaw responses to 28 crises, including the invasion of Panama in 1989 to remove General Manuel Noriega from power and Operation Desert Storm in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. During these events, Powell earned his nickname, "the reluctant warrior." He rarely advocated military intervention as the first solution to an international crisis, and instead usually prescribed diplomacy and containment.

As a military strategist, Powell advocated an approach to military conflicts that maximizes the potential for success and minimizes casualties. A component of this approach is the use of overwhelming force, which he applied to Operation Desert Storm in 1991. His approach has been dubbed the "Powell Doctrine." Powell continued as chairman of the JCS into the Clinton presidency but as a dedicated "realist" he considered himself a bad fit for an administration largely made up of liberal internationalists. He clashed with then-U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Madeleine Albright over the Bosnian crisis, as he opposed any military interventions that didn't involve US interests.

During his chairmanship of the JCS, there was discussion of awarding Powell a fifth star, granting him the rank of General of the Army. But even in the wake of public and Congressional pressure to do so, Clinton-Gore presidential transition team staffers decided against it.

Dates of rankAwards and decorationsBadges

Potential presidential candidate

Powell's experience in military matters made him a very popular figure with both American political parties. Many Democrats admired his moderate stance on military matters, while many Republicans saw him as a great asset associated with the successes of past Republican administrations. Put forth as a potential Democratic Vice Presidential nominee in the 1992 U.S. presidential election or even potentially replacing Vice President Dan Quayle as the Republican Vice Presidential nominee, Powell eventually declared himself a Republican and began to campaign for Republican candidates in 1995. He was touted as a possible opponent of Bill Clinton in the 1996 U.S. presidential election, possibly capitalizing on a split conservative vote in Iowa and even leading New Hampshire polls for the GOP nomination, but Powell declined, citing a lack of passion for politics. Powell defeated Clinton 50–38 in a hypothetical match-up proposed to voters in the exit polls conducted on Election Day. Despite not standing in the race, Powell won the Republican New Hampshire Vice-Presidential primary on write-in votes.

In 1997 Powell founded America's Promise with the objective of helping children from all socioeconomic sectors. That same year saw the establishment of The Colin L. Powell Center for Leadership and Service. The mission of the Center is to "prepare new generations of publicly engaged leaders from populations previously underrepresented in public service and policy circles, to build a strong culture of civic engagement at City College, and to mobilize campus resources to meet pressing community needs and serve the public good."

Powell was mentioned as a potential candidate in the 2000 U.S. presidential election, but again decided against running. Once Texas Governor George W. Bush secured the Republican nomination, Powell endorsed him for president and spoke at the 2000 Republican National Convention. Bush won the general election and appointed Powell as Secretary of State.

In the electoral college vote count of 2016, Powell received three votes for President from faithless electors from Washington.

Secretary of State (2001–2005)

As Secretary of State in the Bush administration, Powell was perceived as moderate. Powell was unanimously confirmed by the United States Senate. Over the course of his tenure he traveled less than any other U.S. Secretary of State in 30 years.

On September 11, 2001, Powell was in Lima, Peru, meeting with President Alejandro Toledo and US Ambassador John Hamilton, and attending the special session of the OAS General Assembly that subsequently adopted the Inter-American Democratic Charter. After the September 11 attacks, Powell's job became of critical importance in managing America's relationships with foreign countries in order to secure a stable coalition in the War on Terrorism.

Powell came under fire for his role in building the case for the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. In a press statement on February 24, 2001, he had said that sanctions against Iraq had prevented the development of any weapons of mass destruction by Saddam Hussein. As was the case in the days leading up to the Persian Gulf War, Powell was initially opposed to a forcible overthrow of Saddam, preferring to continue a policy of containment. However, Powell eventually agreed to go along with the Bush administration's determination to remove Saddam. He had often clashed with others in the administration, who were reportedly planning an Iraq invasion even before the September 11 attacks, an insight supported by testimony by former terrorism czar Richard Clarke in front of the 9/11 Commission. The main concession Powell wanted before he would offer his full support for the Iraq War was the involvement of the international community in the invasion, as opposed to a unilateral approach. He was also successful in persuading Bush to take the case of Iraq to the United Nations, and in moderating other initiatives. Powell was placed at the forefront of this diplomatic campaign.

Powell's chief role was to garner international support for a multi-national coalition to mount the invasion. To this end, Powell addressed a plenary session of the United Nations Security Council on February 5, 2003, to argue in favor of military action. Citing numerous anonymous Iraqi defectors, Powell asserted that "there can be no doubt that Saddam Hussein has biological weapons and the capability to rapidly produce more, many more." Powell also stated that there was "no doubt in my mind" that Saddam was working to obtain key components to produce nuclear weapons.

Most observers praised Powell's oratorical skills. However, Britain's Channel 4 News reported soon afterwards that a UK intelligence dossier that Powell had referred to as a "fine paper" during his presentation had been based on old material and plagiarized an essay by American graduate student Ibrahim al-Marashi.A 2004 report by the Iraq Survey Group concluded that the evidence that Powell offered to support the allegation that the Iraqi government possessed weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) was inaccurate.

In an interview with Charlie Rose, Powell contended that prior to his UN presentation, he had merely four days to review the data concerning WMD in Iraq.

A Senate report on intelligence failures would later detail the intense debate that went on behind the scenes on what to include in Powell's speech. State Department analysts had found dozens of factual problems in drafts of the speech. Some of the claims were taken out, but others were left in, such as claims based on the yellowcake forgery. The administration came under fire for having acted on faulty intelligence, particularly what was single-sourced to the informant known as Curveball. Powell later recounted how Vice President Dick Cheney had joked with him before he gave the speech, telling him, "You've got high poll ratings; you can afford to lose a few points." Powell's longtime aide-de-camp and Chief of Staff from 1989–2003, Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, later characterized Cheney's view of Powell's mission as to "go up there and sell it, and we'll have moved forward a peg or two. Fall on your damn sword and kill yourself, and I'll be happy, too."

In September 2005, Powell was asked about the speech during an interview with Barbara Walters and responded that it was a "blot" on his record. He went on to say, "It will always be a part of my record. It was painful. It's painful now."

Wilkerson said that he inadvertently participated in a hoax on the American people in preparing Powell's erroneous testimony before the United Nations Security Council.

Because Powell was seen as more moderate than most figures in the administration, he was spared many of the attacks that have been leveled at more controversial advocates of the invasion, such as Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz. At times, infighting among the Powell-led State Department, the Rumsfeld-led Defense Department, and Cheney's office had the effect of polarizing the administration on crucial issues, such as what actions to take regarding Iran and North Korea.

After Saddam Hussein had been deposed, Powell's new role was to once again establish a working international coalition, this time to assist in the rebuilding of post-war Iraq. On September 13, 2004, Powell testified before the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, acknowledging that the sources who provided much of the information in his February 2003 UN presentation were "wrong" and that it was "unlikely" that any stockpiles of WMDs would be found. Claiming that he was unaware that some intelligence officials questioned the information prior to his presentation, Powell pushed for reform in the intelligence community, including the creation of a national intelligence director who would assure that "what one person knew, everyone else knew."

Additionally, Powell has been critical of other aspects of U.S. foreign policy in the past, such as its support for the 1973 Chilean coup d'état. From two separate interviews in 2003, Powell stated in one about the 1973 event "I can't justify or explain the actions and decisions that were made at that time. It was a different time. There was a great deal of concern about communism in this part of the world. Communism was a threat to the democracies in this part of the world. It was a threat to the United States." In another interview, however, he also simply stated "With respect to your earlier comment about Chile in the 1970s and what happened with Mr. Allende, it is not a part of American history that we're proud of."

Powell announced his resignation as Secretary of State on November 15, 2004. According to The Washington Post, he had been asked to resign by the president's chief of staff, Andrew Card. Powell announced that he would stay on until the end of Bush's first term or until his replacement's confirmation by Congress. The following day, Bush nominated National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice as Powell's successor. News of Powell's leaving the Administration spurred mixed reactions from politicians around the world — some upset at the loss of a statesman seen as a moderating factor within the Bush administration, but others hoping for Powell's successor to wield more influence within the cabinet.

In mid-November, Powell stated that he had seen new evidence suggesting that Iran was adapting missiles for a nuclear delivery system. The accusation came at the same time as the settlement of an agreement between Iran, the IAEA, and the European Union.

On December 31, 2004, Powell rang in the New Year by pressing a button in Times Square with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to initiate the ball drop and 60 second countdown, ushering in the year 2005. He appeared on the networks that were broadcasting New Year's Eve specials and talked about this honor, as well as being a native of New York City.

Life after diplomatic service

After retiring from the role of Secretary of State, Powell returned to private life. In April 2005, he was privately telephoned by Republican senators Lincoln Chafee and Chuck Hagel, at which time Powell expressed reservations and mixed reviews about the nomination of John R. Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations, but refrained from advising the senators to oppose Bolton (Powell had clashed with Bolton during Bush's first term). The decision was viewed as potentially dealing significant damage to Bolton's chances of confirmation. Bolton was put into the position via a recess appointment because of the strong opposition in the Senate.

On April 28, 2005, an opinion piece in The Guardian by Sidney Blumenthal (a former top aide to President Bill Clinton) claimed that Powell was in fact "conducting a campaign" against Bolton because of the acrimonious battles they had had while working together, which among other things had resulted in Powell cutting Bolton out of talks with Iran and Libya after complaints about Bolton's involvement from the British. Blumenthal added that "The foreign relations committee has discovered that Bolton made a highly unusual request and gained access to 10 intercepts by the National Security Agency. Staff members on the committee believe that Bolton was probably spying on Powell, his senior advisors and other officials reporting to him on diplomatic initiatives that Bolton opposed."

In July 2005, Powell joined Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers, a well-known Silicon Valley venture capital firm, with the title of "strategic limited partner."

In September 2005, Powell criticized the response to Hurricane Katrina. Powell said that thousands of people were not properly protected, but because they were poor rather than because they were black.

On January 5, 2006, he participated in a meeting at the White House of former Secretaries of Defense and State to discuss United States foreign policy with Bush administration officials. In September 2006, Powell sided with more moderate Senate Republicans in supporting more rights for detainees and opposing President Bush's terrorism bill. He backed Senators John Warner, John McCain and Lindsey Graham in their statement that U.S. military and intelligence personnel in future wars will suffer for abuses committed in 2006 by the U.S. in the name of fighting terrorism. Powell stated that "The world is beginning to doubt the moral basis of [America's] fight against terrorism."

Also in 2006, Powell began appearing as a speaker at a series of motivational events called Get Motivated, along with former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani. In his speeches for the tour, he openly criticized the Bush Administration on a number of issues. Powell has been the recipient of mild criticism for his role with Get Motivated which has been called a "get-rich-quick-without-much-effort, feel-good schemology."

In 2007 he joined the board of directors of Steve Case's new company Revolution Health. Powell also serves on the Council on Foreign Relations Board of directors.

Powell, in honor of Martin Luther King Day, dropped the ceremonial first puck at a New York Islanders ice hockey game at Nassau Coliseum on January 21, 2008. On November 11, 2008, Powell again dropped the puck in recognition of Military Appreciation Day and Veterans Day.

Recently, Powell has encouraged young people to continue to use new technologies to their advantage in the future. In a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies to a room of young professionals, he said, "That's your generation...a generation that is hard-wired digital, a generation that understands the power of the information revolution and how it is transforming the world. A generation that you represent, and you're coming together to share; to debate; to decide; to connect with each other." At this event, he encouraged the next generation to involve themselves politically on the upcoming Next America Project, which uses online debate to provide policy recommendations for the upcoming administration.

In 2008, Powell served as a spokesperson for National Mentoring Month, a campaign held each January to recruit volunteer mentors for at-risk youth.

Soon after Barack Obama's 2008 election, Powell began being mentioned as a possible cabinet member. He was not nominated.

In September 2009, Powell advised President Obama against surging US forces in Afghanistan. The president announced the surge the following December.

On March 14, 2014, Salesforce.com announced that Powell had joined its board of directors.

Political views

A liberal Republican, Powell is well known for his willingness to support liberal or centrist causes. He is pro-choice regarding abortion, and in favor of "reasonable" gun control. He stated in his autobiography that he supports affirmative action that levels the playing field, without giving a leg up to undeserving persons because of racial issues. Powell was also instrumental in the 1993 implementation of the military's don't ask, don't tell policy, though he later supported its repeal as proposed by Robert Gates and Admiral Mike Mullen in January 2010, saying "circumstances had changed."

The Vietnam War had a profound effect on Powell's views of the proper use of military force. These views are described in detail in the autobiography My American Journey. The Powell Doctrine, as the views became known, was a central component of U.S. policy in the Persian Gulf War (the first U.S. war in Iraq) and U.S. invasion of Afghanistan (the overthrow of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan following the September 11 attacks). The hallmark of both operations was strong international cooperation, and the use of overwhelming military force.

Powell was the subject of controversy in 2004 when, in a conversation with British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, he reportedly referred to neoconservatives within the Bush administration as "fucking crazies." In addition to being reported in the press (although the expletive was generally censored in the U.S. press), the quotation was used by James Naughtie in his book, The Accidental American: Tony Blair and the Presidency, and by Chris Patten in his book, Cousins and Strangers: America, Britain, and Europe in a New Century.

In a September 2006 letter to Sen. John McCain, General Powell expressed opposition to President Bush's push for military tribunals of those formerly and currently classified as enemy combatants. Specifically, he objected to the effort in Congress to "redefine Common Article 3 of the Geneva Convention." He also asserted: "The world is beginning to doubt the moral basis of our fight against terrorism."

Powell endorsed President Obama in 2008 and again in 2012. When asked why he is still a Republican on Meet the Press he said, "I'm still a Republican. And I think the Republican Party needs me more than the Democratic Party needs me. And you can be a Republican and still feel strongly about issues such as immigration, and improving our education system, and doing something about some of the social problems that exist in our society and our country. I don't think there's anything inconsistent with this."

While Powell was wary of a military solution, he supported the decision to invade Iraq after the Bush administration concluded that diplomatic efforts had failed. After his departure from the State Department, Powell repeatedly emphasized his continued support for American involvement in the Iraq War.

At the 2007 Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado, Powell revealed that he had spent two and a half hours explaining to President Bush "the consequences of going into an Arab country and becoming the occupiers." During this discussion, he insisted that the U.S. appeal to the United Nations first, but if diplomacy failed, he would support the invasion: "I also had to say to him that you are the President, you will have to make the ultimate judgment, and if the judgment is this isn't working and we don't think it is going to solve the problem, then if military action is undertaken I'm with you, I support you."

In a 2008 interview on CNN, Powell reiterated his support for the 2003 decision to invade Iraq in the context of his endorsement of Barack Obama, stating: "My role has been very, very straightforward. I wanted to avoid a war. The president [Bush] agreed with me. We tried to do that. We couldn't get it through the U.N. and when the president made the decision, I supported that decision. And I've never blinked from that. I've never said I didn't support a decision to go to war."

Powell's position on the Iraq War troop surge of 2007 has been less consistent. In December 2006, he expressed skepticism that the strategy would work and whether the U.S. military had enough troops to carry it out successfully. He stated: "I am not persuaded that another surge of troops into Baghdad for the purposes of suppressing this communitarian violence, this civil war, will work." Following his endorsement of Barack Obama in October 2008, however, Powell praised General David Petraeus and U.S. troops, as well as the Iraqi government, concluding that "it's starting to turn around." By mid-2009, he had concluded a surge of U.S. forces in Iraq should have come sooner, perhaps in late 2003. Throughout this period, Powell consistently argued that Iraqi political progress was essential, not just military force.

Powell donated the maximum allowable amount to John McCain's campaign in the summer of 2007 and in early 2008, his name was listed as a possible running mate for Republican nominee McCain's bid during the 2008 U.S. presidential election. However, on October 19, 2008, Powell announced his endorsement of Barack Obama during a Meet the Press interview, citing "his ability to inspire, because of the inclusive nature of his campaign, because he is reaching out all across America, because of who he is and his rhetorical abilities", in addition to his "style and substance." He additionally referred to Obama as a "transformational figure." Powell further questioned McCain's judgment in appointing Sarah Palin as the vice presidential candidate, stating that despite the fact that she is admired, "now that we have had a chance to watch her for some seven weeks, I don't believe she's ready to be president of the United States, which is the job of the vice president." He said that Obama's choice for vice-president, Joe Biden, was ready to be president. He also added that he was "troubled" by the "false intimations that Obama was Muslim." Powell stated that "[Obama] is a Christian—he's always been a Christian... But the really right answer is, what if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The answer's no, that's not America." Powell then mentioned Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan, a Muslim American soldier in the U.S. Army who served and died in the Iraq War. He later stated, "Over the last seven weeks, the approach of the Republican Party has become narrower and narrower [...] I look at these kind of approaches to the campaign, and they trouble me." Powell concluded his Sunday morning talk show comments, "It isn't easy for me to disappoint Sen. McCain in the way that I have this morning, and I regret that [...] I think we need a transformational figure. I think we need a president who is a generational change and that's why I'm supporting Barack Obama, not out of any lack of respect or admiration for Sen. John McCain." Later in a December 12, 2008, CNN interview with Fareed Zakaria, Powell reiterated his belief that during the last few months of the campaign, Palin pushed the Republican party further to the right and had a polarizing impact on it.

In a July 2009 CNN interview with John King, Powell expressed concern over President Obama growing the size of the federal government and the size of the federal budget deficit. In September 2010, he criticized the Obama administration for not focusing "like a razor blade" on the economy and job creation. Powell reiterated that Obama was a "transformational figure." In a video that aired on CNN.com in November 2011, Colin Powell said in reference to Barack Obama, "many of his decisions have been quite sound. The financial system was put back on a stable basis."

On October 25, 2012, 12 days before the presidential election, he gave his endorsement to President Obama for re-election during a broadcast of CBS This Morning. He cited success and forward progress in foreign and domestic policy arenas under the Obama Administration, and made the following statement: "I voted for him in 2008 and I plan to stick with him in 2012 and I'll be voting for he [sic] and for Vice President Joe Biden next month."

As additional reason for his endorsement, Powell cited the changing positions and perceived lack of thoughtfulness of Mitt Romney on foreign affairs, and a concern for the validity of Romney's economic plans.

In an interview with ABC's Diane Sawyer and George Stephanopoulos during ABC's coverage of President Obama's second inauguration, Powell criticized members of the Republican Party who "demonize[d] the president." He called on GOP leaders to publicly denounce such talk.

Powell has been very vocal on the state of the Republican party. Speaking at a Washington Ideas forum in early October 2015, he warned the audience that the Republican party had begun a move to the fringe right, lessening the chances of a Republican White House in the future. He also remarked on Republican presidential contender Donald Trump's statements regarding immigrants, noting that there were many immigrants working in Trump hotels.

In March 2016, Powell denounced the "nastiness" of the 2016 Republican primaries during an interview on CBS This Morning. He compared the race to reality television, and stated that the campaign had gone "into the mud."

In August 2016, Powell accused the Clinton campaign of trying to pin Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's email controversy on him. Speaking to People magazine, Powell said, "The truth is, she was using [the private email server] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did."

On September 13, 2016, emails were obtained that revealed Powell's private communications regarding both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Powell privately reiterated his comments regarding Clinton's email scandal, writing, "I have told Hillary's minions repeatedly that they are making a mistake trying to drag me in, yet they still try," and complaining that "Hillary's mafia keeps trying to suck me into it" in another email. In another email discussing Clinton's controversy, Powell noted that she should have told everyone what she did "two years ago", and said that she has not "been covering herself with glory." Writing on the 2012 Benghazi attack controversy surrounding Clinton, Powell said to then U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice, "Benghazi is a stupid witch hunt." Commenting on Clinton in a general sense, Powell mused that "Everything [Clinton] touches she kind of screws up with hubris", and in another email stated "I would rather not have to vote for her, although she is a friend I respect."

Powell referred to Donald Trump as a "national disgrace", with "no sense of shame." He wrote of Trump's role in the birther movement, which he referred to as "racist." Powell suggested that the media ignore Trump, saying, "To go on and call him an idiot just emboldens him." The emails were obtained by the media as the result of a hack.

Powell endorsed Clinton on October 25, 2016, stating it was "because I think she's qualified, and the other gentleman is not qualified."

Despite not running in the election, Powell received three electoral votes for president from faithless electors in Washington who had pledged to vote for Clinton, coming in third overall. After Barack Obama, Powell was only the second Black person to receive electoral votes in a presidential election. He was also the first Republican since 1984 to receive electoral votes from Washington in a presidential election, as well as the first Republican Black person to do so.

In an interview in October 2019, Powell warned that the GOP needed to “get a grip" and put the country before their party, standing up to President Trump rather than worrying about political fallout. “When they see things that are not right, they need to say something about it because our foreign policy is in shambles right now, in my humble judgment, and I see things happening that are hard to understand,” Powell said.

Personal life

Powell married Alma Johnson on August 25, 1962. Their son, Michael Powell, was the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from 2001 to 2005. His daughters are Linda Powell, an actress, and Annemarie Powell. As a hobby, Powell restores old Volvo and Saab cars. In 2013, he faced questions about a relationship with a Romanian diplomat, after a hacked AOL email account had been made public. He acknowledged a "very personal" email relationship but denied further involvement.

Civilian awards and honors

Powell's civilian awards include two Presidential Medals of Freedom (the second with distinction), the President's Citizens Medal, the Congressional Gold Medal, the Secretary of State Distinguished Service Medal, the Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal, and the Ronald Reagan Freedom Award.

That is our solemn obligation, and we will not fail."

The coat of arms of Colin Powell was granted by the Lord Lyon in Edinburgh on February 4, 2004. Technically the grant was to Powell's father (a British subject) to be passed on by descent. Scotland's King of Arms is traditionally responsible for granting arms to Commonwealth citizens of Scottish descent. Blazoned as

Azure, two swords in saltire points downwards between four mullets Argent, on a chief of the Second a lion passant Gules. On a wreath of the Liveries is set for Crest the head of an American bald-headed eagle erased Proper. And in an escrol over the same this motto, "DEVOTED TO PUBLIC SERVICE."

The swords and stars refer to the former general's career, as does the crest, which is the badge of the 101st Airborne (which he served as a brigade commander in the mid-1970s).

The Firm - Chapter 1

Prologue

Summary: Erik has been hired to find an embezzler. 

Pairing: Erik x Black!OC

Genre: Suspense

Words: 2K+

Erik ran his hand through his dreads before excusing everyone from the conference room. This was his final meeting of the week. He did not realize how much work this new project would entail and he hasn’t even started it yet. As soon as he hung up with Green last week, he knew he would have to hand over everything he was working on, regardless of how much work he put in. This is an open-ended assignment, and he has no idea how long it will last, but he has to see it through to the end, no matter what.

Projects and assignments that were close to being finished or reaching a natural conclusion, he passed off to another member of his senior team. Newly signed contracts, delegated to the research department until they were assigned to another consulting team. It was nice to be your own boss, but he enjoyed putting in the work on his own. He stayed with a list of projects on his plate and now he had to let them all go just to help an old friend. His thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the open door.

“Mr. Stevens, your car is here to take you to the airport. I already emailed your trip itinerary to you. Have a safe trip, sir.”

“Thank you, Tiana. I’m on my way out now. Please lock up after me.” He grabs his luggage and briefcase before leaving the conference room. 15 minutes later, he is pulling up to the small jet sitting idly on the tarmac. As the jet takes off, he wonders when was the last time he stepped foot in the Golden State. He closed his eyes for a moment as sleep took over.

Erik was still out as the jet landed in the private field behind John Wayne Airport. The stewardess lightly tapped his shoulder to let him know they have arrived at their destination. He stood to stretch out his muscles, rolling his neck and shoulders before deboarding the jet with his belongings. He stalks over to his rental and puts his stuff away for the drive.

He puts on some music hoping to drown out the thoughts that are dwarfing everything else in his mind. Nothing helps so he gives up and turns it down. As the smooth sounds of Billie Holiday play in the background, he tries to collect his thoughts.

Green could have hired anyone else for this job. What about this woman makes him so protective that he had to call in his favor? He pinches his nose as his thoughts drift to Bridges. His breathing becomes more erratic, and his knuckles are turning white. Why did Green have to do this to him? Life was grand - his company was in high demand, he could write his own ticket for each new job, and he truly enjoyed what he did. As he focuses on the road ahead of him, he loosens his hold on the wheel, and he finally acknowledges that all he is today started way back then.

He made it to the waterfront condo he would be staying in until this job was done, dropped his luggage in the hallway, and threw his suit jacket on the chair in the back of the living room. Walking towards the bar by one of the floor to ceiling windows overlooking the city, he filled the tumbler with whiskey. He watched the drink swirling it around and lost himself in the waves they created in the glass, closing his eyes he thought about the moment he became indebted to Green.

--- 15 Years Earlier ---

Stevens made it about 3 klicks away from Green when he turns on his own radio to hear the call.

“Green to Command. Green to Command. We have a problem. Master Sergeant McCoy is non-responsive. Requesting back up at my location.” There is nothing but static on the line until someone at the Command Center responds.

“We have McCoy patrolling near the old house. Are you there? What are you seeing?”

“I am here; I was coming by to relieve him when he didn’t respond. I came upon the house, and he is on the ground around back. It looks like he was hit, but I cannot tell where.”

“Alright, we are sending back up. Be careful out there if he was ambushed; you could be in danger.”

“Thank you Command. I will stay in place until help arrives.”

Two more members of the unit and Stevens arrive to assess the situation. McCoy was pronounced dead at the scene. He was hit directly in the chest, his lungs taking the brunt of the impact. It was an uncomfortable death as he drowned in his own blood. Green found the bag and sniper’s rifle that was left on top of a shooter’s nest in one of the trees lining the property. Stevens exchanged looks with Green as the latter turned over the evidence to their next Commanding Officer. The unspoken agreement cemented at that moment with one silent nod and another confirming one.

Two weeks later, the whole unit is heading back to the states with McCoy’s body in tow. Until the investigation into his death concludes, they have been relieved from active duty. Stevens takes that time to sign his release papers. He only had another couple months before he would have resigned for another four years. Although, he loved it; this last time out in the field did something to him. His special ops unit saw more action than any other and some things happened that caused him to question everything he thought he knew.

--- Present Day ---

Erik threw back the whole tumbler in one go and refills it. Green had been right about him keeping tabs on the team. It was easy to do when you were on an Elite Special Ops team with eight other people. McCoy, Stevens, Green, Bridges, Daniels, Johnson, Patton, Christian, and Lee. Although, he worked hard to leave that time of his life behind him. He smiled at the knowledge that the individuals he bonded with were doing great things. Most blended into civilian life with ease after service. Some with white collar and blue collar jobs; then there are those like Stevens and Green who went into business for themselves using their skills.

He pulls the file for Green’s company from his briefcase and lays it on the counter. He knows the man’s life like the back of his hand at this point. Lifting the drink, he recites his bio for the thousandth time. Green, the trust-fund kid who went to school after serving his country. He earned his MBA from Cal State Fullerton and went on to start a philanthropic investment firm locally. His company deploys capital to both for- and non-profit entities. The firm helps other big companies look good as they try to expand their philanthropic efforts.

He sets down the empty glass and grabs his bag. Time to call it a night as he has an early morning and an even longer day ahead of him. In the bathroom, he works through his nighttime routine before retreating to the bedroom. He turns down the bed and lies on his back with his hands behind his head until his eyes close.

Erik slowly approaches the front of the high-rise building that housed Greenbridge Investments, Inc. It is in the center of Downtown Irvine, close to the other corporate offices of some big-name companies. It is a prime location to be right next to most of their clients. His hands are clammy as he reaches the glass double doors, inhaling and exhaling at a steady pace. Shakily, he opens the doors to the lobby. He knew why he was here, and he was happy to repay the debt, but he had so many questions.

He already knows what floor he is going to but takes a moment to take in his new surroundings as this will be his place of work for the foreseeable future. There is security around the open lobby layout, some in plain clothes. He notices the cameras moving swiftly over the entrance doors and by the elevators. One of the elevators has a key entrance. Leave it to Green to make sure he is in a secured metal vessel of a building. He looks at the directory noting that Greenbridge takes up the top five floors of the building, 30- 35. He walks towards the elevators when a flurry of activity passes his peripheral before he hits the ground.

--- The Night Before ---

It has been a whole week, and LaNyah is not any closer to figuring out why there are so many discrepancies in these reports. Every week, she runs reports on the money coming in and out of one of the biggest scholarship accounts that Greenbridge owns. Last week, she discovered that she could not make the amounts on the reports match the transactions from that same week. She decides to run the report for the last 3 months; one week is fine the next is inaccurate. Of course, this makes absolutely no sense to her because when she reconciled the reports within the week per usual, everything balanced.

Pushing the files away from her, she sighs as she looks over at her digital clock on her office desk. The blaring red letters reading that is after 1 am. She needs to get some sleep; she is supposed to meet with Green in the morning to report her findings. Standing suddenly, she tilts nearly falling into the lamp next to her. She pulls her glasses off and starts rubbing her hands over face, hoping that will clear up her vision. She has been staring at those reports for hours and lost track of time.

She sluggishly walks down the hall to her bedroom. As she prepares for bed, her mind keeps drifting back to the issue at hand. Shaking her head because she knows she cannot fix this tonight or even tomorrow, she climbs into bed. She spends the next two hours tossing and turning before her body settles, and sleep arrives.

The light coming in through her bedroom window wakes her up. Glancing at her bedside clock, she screams, “Damn it, I don’t need this shit today.” It is 7:30 in the morning and she has to be at her desk by 9 am. Tangled up in her sheets, she falls out of the bed onto her hardwood floors, slipping and sliding her way to the bathroom.

She is looking in the mirror huffing at her appearance. Of course, her hair decides it wants to add to her great start. Mouth full of bobby pins, she flats twists the front and pulls all her curls around into a bun at the bottom of her neck. Dropping by her office, she pulls the files and notes from her desk to take with her. Passing the kitchen on her way to the door, she grabs her tea, “Son of a bitch,” she screeches as piping hot tea douses her shirt and skin. “At least it didn’t get the reports, but I really don’t have time for this.” She drops everything on the kitchen table and runs back to her room to change her blouse.

Finally making it out the door, she figures she can change shoes at her desk. She arrives at the office, climbs out of her car, and scrapes her thigh on the door. Mumbling she looks at the run in her pantyhose, “Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry. We are ok, Nyah. We just need to make it to our desk and then get it together. These are small setbacks, and they will not ruin our whole day.” She shakes herself out to keep from breaking down in the parking lot. She gathers her heels, the file folders, and her purse before locking the car.

As she enters the lobby, per her usual she keeps her head down and doesn’t talk to anyone. She makes a direct beeline from the entrance doors to the bank of elevators. She is walking with such determination that she does not notice the man moving away from the directory to the elevators and runs smack into him.

A/N: As always, I have to thank my lovely beta, @thehonorablekingerik for telling me when to stop, HA. I am setting up a taglist, so please let me know if you want to be on it.

Chapter 2

[far-away-stars]

Can I ask all for Tenja or Ezio (or both c;) for the NPC asks? -v- <3 (or if that's too much just the asks you think are interesting)

Hi, yes, I did both kitties, which mean it took me too long and got tired of trying to make any sense halfway through it, so sorry if it doesn’t make any sense or it’s just lame here and there. :’D

Tenja Rel 

1. Would they be recruitable?

As a new Jedi in training, yes, I pretty much think so. Sith is harder since he’s quite individualistic and has a pretty possessi-ehm, protective brother.

2. Would they be a class specific character? (ie. Imperial Agent only. Republic character only)

Probably Jedi specific. Either Consular or Knight both.

3. When would you recruit them? Vanilla story? an Expac? Post KOTET?

I think vanilla would be good, learning “peacefully” on the field the ways of Jedi.

4. Where would you recruit them from?

Probably directly from the Temple on Tython, going to pick him up for a mission you were assigned for by some of the higher-ups.

5. What would their recruitment mission be?

He wouldn’t really need one, since, simply put, he doesn't really have a choice, I’ll assume whatever missions the characters made so far in name of the Republic and jedi were enough as a vote of trust for the Council. If we are talking some sort of loyalty mission … maybe he asks you to accompany him on some sort of travel to Voss? To get some help for his blindness. Not to cure it, but to stop the phantom pains probably, or the general headaches from using the Force to “see” while not being yet fully used to it. It may also lead to a dream-travel adventure of sorts (with some comments of his regarding how he can somehow “see” you now.)

6.What would be their original recruitment outfit?

Visas Marr in an all-black dye.

7. Would there be a character they don’t like? Would that cause you to choose sides?

Well. There would be issues if he somehow came into contact with his brother, Di’taqt, so any sort-of public alliance with the Sith would probably be problematic.

8. Are they romancable? Why/why not?

They are, but it’s probably not one of the easiest shells to break. He didn’t really allowed himself love for the sake of it, I mean, his last wife blinded him in a fit of rage. Also, well, he doesn’t mind sex at all, because it what he was used to as a Sith and wasn’t going to go chaste just for the sake of old ass Jedi traditions, so there’s that. But, well. He doesn’t think love has a change to turn out well. He can be proved wrong, if one is willing to try.

9. What would they say if you clicked on them?

“I’m listening.” “What do you have in store for us today, my friend?” “At your service.” “I do wonder if it’s a wise idea.” “Mhnn, gossip. I like it.” “No one suspects the blind man.”

10. Do they know any other in game characters? (ie. trained under Satele Shan during the civil war. Knew Talos before he went to Hoth)

Aside from his brother and general Sith acquaintances I don’t think so.

11. What weapon(s) would they have?

His lightsaber, standard force-sensitive equipment. His sly charm.

12. Are they better as a tank, healer or DPS?

Essentially DPS but he can manage a decent amount of healing, at least for himself. His specialty consists in entropic redistribution of the Force, basically siphoning life force from his enemies to himself, wasting away his enemies while healing and strengthening himself.

13. What gifts do they Love? Like? What would they say when you gave them a gift?

Weapon and Trophy, probably. Doesn't mind Luxury and Courting either. - “Well. Someone will certainly find a use to it.” “Appreciated.” “For me? I’m honored.” “I.. thank you, my friend. It’s truly wonderful.”

14. What would they say if you sent them away/changed them out?

“I’ll be there when you need me.” “Good rest to you.” “Oh, you wound me, leaving so soon.” “I dare you to find company as good as mine, my friend.”

15. What do they say when they heal you? What do they say when they are attacking?

“Hush, hush. Better already, is it?” “Don’t die on me, my friend, I don’t need that kind of stress in my life.” “Fresh air and the the kiss of life.” - “Tut-tut, I’ll show how it’s done.” “Let it go. It will hurt less if you don’t fight it.” “You are lacking finesse. Not that it will matter for longer still.” “Do us a favor. Don’t get up.”

16. What’s their idle chatter like? Do they talk a lot (when you arrive on each planet) or do they suddenly say something in some strange places?

They certainly like to say something at each planet, idle stuff, less prone to start random conversations if unprompted.

17. What letters would they send post vanilla class story/SOR/KOTFE

Romance :

He would probably be so frustrated trying to write one, or think of a gift, but, yeah, letters are not his forte. He wouldn’t know what to write, how to explain, how to express what he feels. Not the full story of his life on paper would be enough to try to begin to put into words how he feels to this day next to them.

He will try to prove it, to show it, to make it spoken in a language he hopes the character will understand, but, no. Not in a letter. He will write invisible patterns on their skin, he will smile his gratitude and hold his hopes in their arms with them. And hope they understand.

Also he would have to dictate it to a holo-transcriptor and yeah, no.

18. If they are recruitable in vanilla story, where are they during KOTFE/TET? What are/were they doing?

Probably still with the Jedi. He didn’t have much choice, he couldn’t really go back to the Empire, and it’s not as if they were faring any better Tho I bet he was one of the most frustrated ones after the deal with Zakuul, very bitter. He may have left at a certain point to join some resistance’s group, if anything not to feel so useless.

Lucretyiio 

1. Would they be recruitable?

Buy him food and he’s yours, honestly.

2. Would they be a class specific character? (ie. Imperial Agent only. Republic character only)

No, not really. He usually strays away from force sensitives and isn’t overly fond of the Empire, but well, he doesn’t judge people from covers. Or tries at least,

3. When would you recruit them? Vanilla story? an Expac? Post KOTET?

He’s pretty freestyle. He constantly asks for rides. Anytime would work.

4. Where would you recruit them from?

A Cantina. Could be anywhere from Coruscant, to Tatooine, to Nar Shadda.

5. What would their recruitment mission be?

Help him take down or stop some violent gang making business around probably, or something of the sort.

6.What would be their original recruitment outfit?

Canderous Ordo armor.

7. Would there be a character they don’t like? Would that cause you to choose sides?

Honestly.. Not really. There’s a lot of things he doesn’t like, but it’s not about choosing sides, not really, it’s about engaging ourselves to be the best we can possibly be. He doesn’t actually wants to shun or isolate people. He won't be comfortable or agree with everyone, but he wants to believe it’s doable while offering the chance to be united.

Honestly, like, yeah, he will vocally disagree to a lot of stuff if it involves violence, abuse and all that stuff. But he will stay as long as he believes in the cause. Being open about his opinions is also one of the ways he hopes will help changing things for the best and influence people with new ideas.

8. Are they romancable? Why/why not?

Yes, very. He’s so flirty. He just happens to become a mess if you flirt back. You may have to pick him up on a spoon. But he’ll sing all the love ballads to you.

9. What would they say if you clicked on them?

“Never wondered : why Banthas? No, like, that’s it. That’s the question. I can’t figure them out, mate.” “Why nothing rhymes with “Saresh”?” “Bada-mba-dababum mate, ya feel me?” “I. Need. Ice Cream.” “Oh shit, forgot the safety on the blaster.” “I’m here all day folks.” “No, man, you are the sidekick.”

10. Do they know any other in game characters? (ie. trained under Satele Shan during the civil war. Knew Talos before he went to Hoth)

Nope, don’t think so.

11. What weapon(s) would they have?

His brazen and melodious singing voice. His halliksete, if smashed on someone’s head. A blaster that he mostly knows how to use. Also smoke grenades. Because he often needs a diversion from when he needs to quickly disappear.

12. Are they better as a tank, healer or DPS?

He can damage things alright. Mostly willingly. I wouldn’t really trust him for anything else.

13. What gifts do they Love? Like? What would they say when you gave them a gift?

Underworld Good and Courting are his faves. Luxury and Cultural Artefact can work out. - “Hey, yeah, cool. What is it?” “Fancy ass cool, man!” “Fuck. Thanks.” “*sobbing*”

14. What would they say if you sent them away/changed them out?

“Hey, be back soon for another show.” “Yeeees, party time!” “No, yeah, of course I can be left to my own devices. No dangers. Ah.” “I’ll be back when you need me!”

15. What do they say when they heal you? What do they say when they are attacking?

“Hey. Wanna me to kiss it better?” “I’m trying!” “Hey, all better, Am I the best or am I the best?” “Oh fuck man that must have hurt.” - “Aaaand perfect strike for local handsome!” “Yes, that was… totally what I meant to do!” “Oh fuck that hurt.” “In your BEHIND, dude.”

16. What’s their idle chatter like? Do they talk a lot (when you arrive on each planet) or do they suddenly say something in some strange places?

He talks a lot. Don’t even get me started.

17. What letters would they send post vanilla class story/SOR/KOTFE

One of his letters, both romance and not-romance (tho romance’s content are slightly different) is the messy drafts of a song he’s trying to compose about the character. It’s some sort of epic tale, or brash cantina chant, or something more private. It’s a mess, with all his annotations. It’s very sincere. He says he never managed to finish it, and maybe it’s because he doesn’t want it to finish. Never.

18. If they are recruitable in vanilla story, where are they during KOTFE/TET? What are/were they doing?

Helping refugees. He started off really angry, blazen songs about Zakuul and how they all had to fight. Then… he just wanted to help people.

Expert Admissions Preparation Institute for MBA

If you hold an MBA degree from one of the top institutions, your career will be off to a great start. However, gaining admission is becoming increasingly difficult. A candidate must prepare for and score well on GMAT admission entrance exam, submit clear, well-written essays motivating his decision to apply to business school, as well as demonstrate strong oral expression during interviews before he is admitted. . He or she must do, not just well, but exceedingly well. This is where expert assistance comes in very useful for prospective candidates. Choosing the right admission consulting agency can ensure success.

Grace Education is one such admission consulting institute owned and operated by a Harvard graduate with over 5 years of experience in this field. This is the best recommendation: Get coached by experts.

One of the prerequisites for top MBA business school admissions is that you have excellent GMAT test scores. However GMAT preparation alone is no guarantee for MBA acceptance. How many times have we heard of candidates who have top GMAT scores who sadly did not get into their dream business school? Business schools have a limited number of places and the number of applicants to top US programs has been on the rise since 2016.

APPLICATION INCREASES DRIVE DOWN ACCEPTANCE RATES AND DRIVE UP GMAT SCORES

Grace goes beyond just GMAT preparation. Priding itself with a 97% student acceptance rate, this admission consulting institute takes a holistic approach towards admission consulting. At Grace, students are at heart of its services.

Upon choosing Grace Education, students are assigned personal Grace Education admission coach and together the two will begin a several month relationship that   often turns into a  friendship.  During brainstorming sessions and consultations between the student and his Grace Coach, the two make an in-depth examination of a student's academic/professional C.V. as well as his future career aspirations. From this ongoing dialogue, consultants and students establish a list of business schools.  The student then begins the arduous task crafting his essays. These writing samples must be well-structured, cohesive, and above all convince the admission committee of an applicant's worthiness to attend business school and demonstrate his potential to be a successful businessman upon graduation. Usually the student's essays respond to several questions in which they are asked to define their short and long-term future career goals as well as describe their business and leadership experience.  Students must write essays on their own. However, Grace Coaches offer students complete guidance on how to best represent their past achievements, leadership skills, and business potential. After three to four drafts, final essays are not only reviewed by a student's personal Grace Coach, but also by alumni from the business school where the student is applying.

After MBA graduation, I aim to work for the Equity Capital Market (ECM) Department of an Investment Banking Division. In ECM. My focus will be on analyzing a business’ value and make use of the best method to introduce it to the market. After 3-5 years in ECM, I plan to leverage my skills in business valuation, financial market insights and established network with market stakeholders and have a focus on second-round financing solutions. Ultimately, I will set up my own PE dedicated to serve smaller-sized clients covering China and South-east Asia with less than $50m revenue p.a. and provide diversified financing solutions and exit options by giving them wide exposure to the financial market.

Despite the analytics skills and finance knowledge I already gained from 3 years of banking career with BNP Paribas, I am fully aware that a Wharton MBA is the irreplaceable next step for me.  Wharton MBA is unique – it has advantage in nearly all areas of studies. Wharton’s MBA program with quantitative emphasis and individualized concentration on Information: Strategy and Economics would add great value to my career through the course Change, Innovation and Entrepreneurship by professor Rosenkopf.

                              Hey M,

A solid first version of this essay What we need to focus on is bringing out your RIICH LEADERSHIP SKILLS AND POTENTIAL by better detailing your short and long-term goals, and, more importantly, how WHARTON will help you achieve these goals.

No worries we’ve given you lots of comments/guiding questions to complete for your next rewrite.

Let’s diig in. How will the Wharton MBA help you achieve your professional objectives? (400 words)(408)

After MBA graduation, I aim to work as cite position title for the Equity Capital Market (ECM) Department of an Investment Banking firm such as cite bank.   My focus will be on analyzing a business’ value what types of businesses? Small, mid cap, large? From what country? What industry?  and make use of the best method to introduce it to the market which market? What index? NYSE? FTSE? HSI? . After 3-5 years in ECM, I plan to leverage my skills in business valuation, financial market insights and established network with market stakeholders and have a focus on second-round financing solutions. Ultimately, I will set up my own PE dedicated to serve smaller-sized clients covering China and South-east Asia with less than $50m revenue p.a. and provide diversified financing solutions and exit options by giving them wide exposure to the financial market.

Despite the analytics skills and finance knowledge I already gained from 3 years of banking career with BNP Paribas, Let’s toot your horn and cite your impacts on company profits. You might wanna say something like, “With a proven track record of success by increasing profits/generating cost savings by X%, I have gained skills and knowledge in the following areas: (cite them). To meet my short-term goal of working as (give position title) in ECM, I need to further develop skills in (cite skills).  You might wanna add your contact with Wharton alumni here. Taking your sentence you could say something like, “Confirmed by my interaction with Hong Kong Wharton alumni during an information session, Wharton’s MBA is unique – it has advantage in nearly all of the above areas of I hope to study.  Taking “Change, Innovation and Entrepreneurship” by professor Rosenkopf would enhance my skills in cite skills.

Hey Ma, are there one or two additional courses that would help you meet your short and long term goal? Now’s, the moment to list them.

Essays are only one component of an MBA admission's application. Professional/academic recommendations letters are another extremely important one. Grace coaches offer students advice on whom to solicit for these letters as well as editorial services if recommenders request student-written draft material.

The final component is the interview. Its importance in the MBA admissions process depends on who you speak to. Some claim it’s an integral, make or break element of your application, while others say it’s a mere formality, that the school has already decided they want you and just need to check that you’re not a complete ill-fit.

The reality is somewhere in between. According to interview coach Margaret Buj, on average 35% of the application process is weighted towards the interview. “There are thousands of applicants who look great on paper, who have perfect grades, have aced the GMAT exam and have some great professional experience. But schools want that rare balance of academic prowess and interpersonal strengths, and this is what’s tested during interviews.”

Grace Coaches gives provide each of its students personalized counseling, detailed constructive feedback as well as unlimited simulated practice sessions with real questions used during MBA admissions.  Furthermore, for students whose native language is not English, they will be appointed a Grace coach qualified in teaching English as a second language.

The extent of services usually results in students becoming successful in gaining admissions to prestigious MBA institutions. However, it does not end there. Students may be eligible for grants or scholarship or fellowship programs. The Grace professionals assist students to obtain scholarships and reduce their financial burden. This is but one of the several reasons why successful students have sought assistance from the Grace Education website. It always pays to get expert assistance from experts. It can make the difference between receiving admission and being denied one.

I have got some interesting things to share with you😎

Let me tell you about SWOT analysis

Swot stands for Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat. SWOT Analysis helps to make the most of what you have got, to your organization's best advantage. And you can reduce the chances of failure, by understanding what you are lacking, and eliminating hazards that would otherwise catch you unawares (Gurel, 2017).

I want to share with you my personal SWOT analysis.

 My Strengths

I am a good listener.

At times when I am in a discussion with my  colleagues, I allow them to say their problems, at the long run they say to  me I have proffer solution to their plight.

I can present to a large audience.

While I was studying for my first degree, I  presented my term paper in front of about 300 audience where we have juries  present. I was so confident and bold which earned the best grade.

I have got good sales skills.

I got employment with Samolad Global systems in  2014, I rose through the ranks from a sales executive to a marketing and  sales manager in 5 years.

Ability to lead a team. 

I lead series of marketing team while working with  Samolad Global systems to achieve monthly targets.

Also, as a choir master, I have won several medals  at musical competitions with my choir members.

    My Weaknesses  

Procrastination. 

I discover I like to push my tasks and assignments  to the last minute, by doing this I overwork myself and will not achieve the  desired result.

Impatient at times.

I had a particular scenario while working at Samolad  Global Systems. I lead a sales team to a location for product sales, one of  my team members that just came newly to join the company couldn’t sell one  single product, I was so mad at her that she had to quit the job after the  first week. She complained about my actions. My regret was she made the best  sales at the end of that week. 

Bad handwriting.

I almost failed a course because of bad handwriting  while studying for my first degree. One of my lecturers called me and told me  how my handwriting could have earned me a bad mark. But because he knows my  competence, he took his time to strain his eyes to understand what I wrote.

I get easily angry when under pressure.

I was put under serious pressure by my immediate  boss to carry out a task at my place of work. The workload was so much that I  decided to stay at home and not carry it out, although the management was aware  that the task is too much to be done within that space of time, I was handed  a month suspension for my attitude towards it.

     Opportunities  

Learning handwriting skills 3 hours per day

I have been searching through the internet to  improve on my handwriting skills, I bought a 2D notebook, and this helps straighten  letters.

Searching online to learn about anger management.

With the help of my online learning on anxiety  management, I try as much as possible to manage my anger by talking  effectively, try to leave the premises that is about to trigger my anger and  smile more often.

I try to practice more about time scheduling by making use of Gantt chart.

I schedule my daily activities and respond to it,  although still in the process of getting better.

       Threats

Pressure at place of work

Unconducive learning environment.  My issue here is that I leave in a       house where we have kids. Their noise is a pain in the marrow each time  I want to learn or study.  Power  and Internet cut are contributors too. I hope I will be able to deal with it. 

Too much   of assignment on a weekly basis by my lecturers is frustrating. While I am  still adapting to Virtual Learning Environment, I hardly conclude these  assignments.

COVID-19 effect has posed a big threat on my  finance. I was short paid for 8 months because our company’s income  decreased drastically during this period.

Until I attended Personal Skills Development (PSD) lessons, I never knew anything about SWOT. I participated in the class, and I discovered the importance of SWOT. I wrote my SWOT and started working on my weaknesses. Ever since then, I noticed in me that I am gradually doing away with my procrastinating attitude.

 I HAVE A GOAL…. I want to build a big reputation in Sales and Marketing business………..😎😎😎

Have u got yours? If not… set your SMART goals today……

You may want to ask what is a SMART goal?

A SMART goal is used to help guide goal setting. SMART is an acronym that stands for  Specific, Measurable,  Achievable,  Measurable, and  Timely. Therefore, a SMART goal incorporates all of these criteria to help focus your efforts and increase the chances of achieving that goal (www.bing.com).

I am always looking for ways to realise my goal of being a future Sales manager. For me to achieve this, I put academics at the fore front. I have come to realise that opting for a SMART goal model will make this achievable. 

According to Cothran and Wysocki (2019), SMART goals provide a great framework to improve your goal setting and help you create more effective goals. I have set 4 SMART goals that i will realise in no longer time.

  HOW DO YOU REFLECT ON YOUR DAILY ACTIVIITIES, BEHAVIOUR, AND YOUR DEEDS?

Reflection simply means  a serious thought or consideration you have about anything running through your mind.

I am glad I took the PSD class because my teacher has really impacted me with the knowledge of reflection 💪💪💪💪

I want to share with you how i have reflected on some things

ETHICAL DECISION

On Monday the 15th of January 2021, I had an online class session with my Postgraduate skills Development teacher. She taught us Ethical decision making. At first, the topic sound so strange that I struggled to understand. As the lesson goes on, she showed us a YouTube video called the Trolly problem, at that point I was able to comprehend what Ethical decision is all about.

The Trolly problem is giving a scenario where you have to take a decision that will either favour you or not. Don’t forget that the decision has to be taken with ethics. 

After the class, I realised I have been so selfish with how I take decisions especially when it has to do with myself and others. I got home that day and I begin point out times that I have taken such decisions. One of the times I took such decision was that faithful day that I pronounced a bias judgement on one of my choir members because he has offended me before that time, I told myself it is a payback time as a result I could not see anything wrong with my decision. Oh! How I wish I could rewind time to ethically judge my choir member. However, I wrote some that can still be amended, and I promised myself to do the amends as quick as possible.  Although, from my point of view, I have always admitted that selfishness is not unfairness because I believe as a human being, I should consider myself first in my own decisions. But I was wrong. I researched on what selfishness means, and I found out that selfish behaviour is not only immoral, but it is also bad for my own psychological well-being (https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/).

 In the words of Sonja Lyubomirsky (2007), "If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else." Now I see myself as a mentor to many people, I said within me that there is need for me to always be fair enough while taking decisions by putting others into consideration.

For me to get better at taking Ethical decisions, I will from now on, make it a point of duty to create awareness of ethical decision in my environment. At my place of work, I will practice Ethical decision by introducing the Trolly problem to my colleagues, also through my behaviours and actions on how to be desirous of doing the right thing regardless of the cost. Doing this will make me better by the day.

BRAINSTORMING

Brainstorming is one of the techniques for fostering group creativity by which ideas and thoughts are shared among members spontaneously in order to reach solutions to practical problem ( Al-Samarraie, 2017)

In the forth week of my second term in class, I had a session with my Postgraduate skills Development teacher, I learnt about Brainstorming and the different brainstorming techniques that could strategically aid my learning skills. As the lesson goes on, I participated in a breakout session where the teacher put us into 3 persons in a group to deliberate and brainstorm on a particular argument. I was able to argue with colleagues and my point of view was proven.

I realised, for the first time ever that Brainstorming has techniques or there is methodology to brainstorming. I got to know as a visual learner, I can improve my learning skills by adopting the clustering technique of brainstorming.

I now understand that critical thinking is a big tool of brainstorming. How do I mean by critical thinking?  Critical thinking is simply a reasonable, reflective, responsible, and skilful thinking that is focused on deciding what to believe or do (www.bing,com). I made up my mind that I will always brainstorm in any gathering I find myself because I believe it will bring out the better version of me particularly in situations where I am to proffer solution to a particular problem.

I thought of it that the next thing is to start practising brainstorming activities. I will engage my colleagues at work in so many brainstorming activities.  How is this achievable? I will prepare my sales team for discussion, and present a sales problem that will engage us, brainstorming sets in as we will begin to discuss the solution to that problem.

WAOOOO...ITS TIME TO SHARE MY EXPERICE ABOUT MY PRESNTATION...🕺🕺🕺💥💥🕺🕺

It was on a cool cloudy day, I had a presentation section with my colleagues and my teacher via online class. We are to present about ourselves. We were 3 students that attended that class, and my teacher via email, sent us a performance sheet where she instructed us to note down the performances of each other. I was at first very nervous to do the presentation because I was the first person to be called upon.  

I got excellent comments from my teacher and my colleagues for a good presentation. I was overwhelmed when my teacher said to me that I am a very good presenter that I will be successful in life. Tears rolled out of my eyes because I never believed I will get such a wonderful comment. It was then I realised good expression, time management and preparedness and the key to successful presentation, because my teacher attributed all these qualities to me. However, my teacher made me understand the importance of font characters in presentation. I observed my font characters are the smallest making my presentation slides a bit difficult to see, although I got good comments for the graphics and pictures.

Immediately after the class, I started researching on how to get better with presentation. According to Larry, (2020) on his blog, he said practising, transforming nervous energy into enthusiasm, paying attention to others’ presentation, using positive visualization, smiling, and actively engaging the audience, are the key to an excellent presentation delivery. I will suggest a sales presentation to my bosses when I am back to the office, if approved, I will put up a sales presentation to my own team as a team lead, and make sure they all participated in the presentation by engaging them. More so, I will work on my font size when next I must present.
