                College a place where you go to become someone to expand your learning. I was raised to be what i want to become and education is the key to success. Attending college means the world to me. It means that I am on my way to success. I grew up in town where it was tough. Where everyone automatically called me ghetto just because of where I came from. They did even try to get to know me but the people that did take the time to know me knew I wasn’t ghetto I was a sweet and studious girl.

It teach you to be tough and not let anything or anyone hurt you . It teaches to learn from your mistakes because that the best lesson, to learn to fall. education was gold for me. Wanting to attend college and doing my best is what got me through. I owe so much to my school cause it taught me a lot. Being able to attend college is a blessing and i thank god and my parents for the wonderful opportunity.
