A Better Me by Koryne

A Better Me by Koryne - January 2016 Scholarship Essay

So I have not always been the best person I suppose I could say many things as to why but instead I am just going to tell you what I want to accomplish this coming year. So to start I want to begin with how I want to be nicer to everyone around me because that will help me be a better student and being a better student means you are a happier person and happier people are generally healthier and it is really what I want to do with my life as of now. I want to go to college it has been my passion since I was a small child. I want to be a successful person who goes to college and is a better student than I was when I was a junior or freshman in high school.
I feel that being a better student is a really important thing because being a good student means you can accomplish way more compared to if you are a bad student and do not study or attend school. My goal this year is to stay in school more and do all my homework and study really hard so I can graduate and go to college and be what I want to be a college grad and I feel the closer my senior class gets to the end of our year the more nervous we get and we are both excited and scared of what lay ahead. We have been together since 6th grade and now it is all coming to an end were we all part ways and may never see each other again. It is sort of bittersweet thinking of how our lives are changing and going in different directions. I am sad but I am happy I will miss all of this and walking through the halls of my school and going to the library to study or seeing familiar faces everyday.
Being a better person this year as well as a student may be difficult but I will try my hardest to create my masterpiece in this world and no one knows what will happen in ten years I can only hope that all I have done will be enough in the end. I have big dreams I just hope they are not to big for me.
