My metamorphosis came about when I entered high school. My English teacher assigned a project in which we began mapping out our high school experiences so that they attract the attention of our desired colleges. After class‚ I opened up to her about how I did not have any direction in life. I had no clue what I wished to be or even why I was going to school. To my surprise‚ she didn’t ridicule me. She simply asked me to recall a time that inspired me when I was a child. It could be anything from

One of the worst injuries that has ever occurred to me was having my fingers burned by extremely hot water. It was a cold‚ dark day at 7:31pm‚ and it was just me‚ my older brother‚ Gideon‚ and my younger brother‚ Theodore. I was 9 years old‚ Theodore was 2 years old‚ and Gideon was 12 years old.

scared. My parents kept telling me‚ “College is supposed to be the best four years of your life.” However‚ at that point in time‚ I didn’t necessarily agree with them. I didn’t have a lot of friends in high school and wasn’t involved in a lot of extra curricular activities. So coming here was a big culture shock. I knew that I had to do whatever it took to get involved and make a name for myself. I couldn’t sit back and let the world go on without me. I had to be a part of the experience in as many
