My Life in College
I am attending this college success class due to the fact I had very poor grades in my previous
semesters. I have been attending Palo Alto College for about four years now off and on of course. After
four years of college I wish my GPA was more worthy to show to others. After the first semester of
college I still was undecided on my major and what I wanted to do with my life. I took a liking for the
arts when I was in high school. During high school I was attending an art program called Say Si (San
Antonio Artistic Youth) I attend this program all through my high school years. After graduating from
this program I was offered a job in their ABC (artist building communities) program. In this program I
was able to mentor children that have no art programs in their current school. We also would teach at
different types of children shelters and children hospitals.
I enjoy teaching very much, I was looking into teaching art in a school district. But after
teaching for 4 years I think it takes a special person to teach little kids. I really don't have the patiences
for teaching 2nd and 3rd graders. I current teach but only older kids. Two semesters have passed and I
slacked off on my school and I was going through a rough time in my life with my family. I picked up a
second job due to the fact my teaching job was only two days out of the week. I started working in the
automotive business selling auto parts. I worked there for the last two years. I loved learning about cars
and how they work. But after awhile my school schedule did not fit into my work schedule. My boss
would give me a hard time about my school life all the time. I had the craziest schedule while working
with auto parts. I would go to work in the morning and go to school during my lunch break and I would
also go to school after work as while. This was everyday for almost a year and six months. It was two
much for me...
