Road to Stardom by Widline

Road to Stardom by Widline - June 2013 Scholarship Essay

    College means an opportunity to getting more out of life. Ever since I was a young I have always be brainwashed to thinking you must go to college to be a success. That alone is not 100% accurate, there are many people who have never attended college and has managed being a success. At the same time I do believe college is responsible for many success stories and I intend to be apart of that group someday.           College not only has a rewarding finish but a worth wild journey. I've heard of having the "full college experience" from many of my friends that already attend college. It really is an adventure that you will not get anywhere else. Being in college, students are able to meet a wide range of people that they would not have been provided the chance to get to know anywhere else. Plus being in college you may build friendships/relationships  that may continue beyond the campus.            The opportunities are endless when it comes to college; the schools are designed to feel like a separate city. With that being said you are exposed to a whole new world, for some it may be living on their own for the first time of their lives. For others it maybe balancing education, work, and the participation in organizations. College also provide opportunities towards doing what you are passionate about wheather it being a club or a sport.             I have also heard that, "you haven't lived yet untill you go to college" so I am convinced that college will indeed shape my future and guide me towards becoming the achiever I have always planned on being. Currently being a newly high school graduate I am so ready and excited about the journey that awaits me. College is my purpose and no matter what may happen I will always stand proudly by my decision of furthering  my education on a different playing.
