On a professional level, I am entering college in order to get a good job and be able to take care of myself and my family. I want a job that I will enjoy and also one in which I can make enough money to support myself. I know that it’s not a perfect world and there will be days when I don’t enjoy my job, but I’m hoping to find the best possible one out there for me. Without a good education that will not be possible.
On a personal level, I am entering college mainly because I have always felt as if I had to. Nowadays you can’t usually get a decent job unless you have a degree, so here I am. Also, my mom has always made education a very big part of my life and has always stressed how important it is. She went to school to be a teacher and has always pushed me to do the best I can and to go above and beyond.
