1)  Your beginning point.  I believe that people would benefit from having silent microwaves. 2)  Describe your belief.  People who live with others, especially college students, often tip toe around their house or apartment when others are asleep.

In my future, I am considering nonprofit work where these skills are invaluable in making the world a better place.
