I am proud of many things in my life. The one thing that tops them all off is the fact that I am in college!
I never knew what I wanted to and I still can't decide, but I knew that if I wanted tobe successful in life I needed to continue with school. The thing was that my family was the only support that I had. In 2010, I was in a high school of over 3,000 students, there was only 10 councilors and they had at least 500 students per each. My councilor sat in her chair and told me that I did not need to worry about college. I was so let down by this and I took this as my fate .... Until I came out to california in the fall of 2010.
Once I started my junior year in high school I wanted to prove to all those people that I could make something out of my life! So I started getting A's and B's and became involved with not only the many clubs at school, but with the funding of our school. I am able to help raise funds for my non-profit school through my singing and it feels amazing to give back to a place that have given so much to you! The staff at my new school were encouraging me and stood behind me 100% till this very day telling me that I am going to become someone of great success.
So I graduated high school and now sit down writing this blog for one of my five classes at San Diego City College.
I did this not to prove myself to all those who doubted me, but to myself ... I can do all that I set my mind to and I WILL!
I AM PROUD TO CALL MYSELF A COLLEGE STUDENT ;)
