The goal that I have set for myself is to graduate from high school and attend college but that is just one part to it the other is to graduate from college, in my family both parents attended college the only problem is they never finished it, so I have made it my goal to be the first in my family to graduate from college and get the job that I wish to have. My parents were gifted with their first child which was me, as a child growing up was a little difficult because my father hardly was home due to his work, my mother did not have a job at the time because she had just given birth to me and was on workers relieve, meaning money was very hard to come by with only my father’s salary to provide for us. Eventually my mother returned to work but she went back to only then get a new surprise, she then found out that she was once again pregnant. After my mother had her daughter our family was growing making it harder to work as in there were two children in the family now, both parents of mine were working hard to get money that would then help to feed us, soon later my mother had another two more children which are my brothers, now we were a big family of six.
Once my family grew bigger money became a big deal because now my parents had another challenge to deal with; and that was how were my parents going to save up for my college tuition this became a hard task to deal with the stress that I was dealing with was hard it got to the point it resulted in therapy to help bring me through this stress and depression, but I pulled myself together and worked hard to get good in school. Now I am striving to do good in school getting the best grades reviewing colleges looking for scholarships as well, my parents are still struggling to find ways to help get money for college it is stressful for them and as well me it is a hards task to deal with but I will persevere through it all because the joy of graduating couldn’t make me anymore happy to know that all the hard work payed off the long nights of studying for test and exams all payed off.
As a favorite author of mine said “you are going to live a good and long life filled with great and terrible moments that you cannot even imagine yet” this quote makes it all worth it because it shows me that even if things don’t go my way it will get better no matter what because life is full of odd and mysteries things that we can’t predict which makes it all different. The sound of college terrifies me because the thought of failing crosses my mind but then it comes to term in my head failing is good for you because I am not perfect nor will I ever be perfect that is because the word perfect is just a word we created to make yourself feel better about something that you accomplished, when people ask me about the word perfect I think of someone trying to be something they are not; I never want to be that type of person I want colleges to look at my application and say she is telling us the truth of what she is capable of doing as well she is not afraid to fail but yet recover stronger. So whenever colleges visit my website I want them to read about the struggles I overcame and will keep overcoming at their school.
