How would you rate my accomplishments?

Career Objective I am a Foreign Affairs major and aspire to one day become a United States diplomat. As a first generation Arab-American I have experienced first-hand the effects of the seemingly endless violence in the Middle East. As a diplomat I can only hope to contribute to an eventual solution which will bring about peace and a better world for all to prosper in.

So have you guys heard of this? Apparently a small town in Oklahoma City had an election in which, John Hamilton or whatever his name is became the youngest mayor in American history. (At the age of 19) so as a future politician/foreign affairs major, this has opened up my eyes a little. Although I'm only 21, I feel as if I could be doing more! But what? How do I gain popularity/strength in my city? Constructive criticism only please! Although I am reminded what my father used to tell me back when I was young, "don't try to be a great man, just be a man, and let history make its own judgments" thank you and God bless. In any case you would like to see my resume, to view what have I accomplished so far, you're more than welcome.

Do you ever just sit and take in the scenery? You must be exhuasted.
