Collegiate Objectives

In the end of my High School career I was left with the decision of what to do next. I knew that I wanted to go farther then what my hometown and a High School diploma could provide for me. The option of community college seemed unpromising to me, I’ve watched my fellow peers float through community college and never go any father. I want to go father. The fact that I have made it this far makes me proud of myself and my achievements, and I know even more so how proud my family is. I didn’t become another factory worker, or teenage mother. The one thing that I think I can gain on a personal level from college is achievement and pride. I and my family know that I put forth the effect to better myself, and some day my children will know the effort I made, and hopefully be compelled to do the same.

When I reach the end of my college career I want to have the security of knowing I have options. In times like today knowing that the work force wants you is priceless. I won’t make the common mistake of wishing to be rich and then get disappointed, I want to be secure. Wealthy enough to buy the things I need and some of those I want. In my future I want to be able to take care of my family, and know that my children will be taken care of. I have not yet decided where my schooling will take me, or what field it will lead me too. Those decisions will come in time, for now I am learning about the world around me, what it has to offer and more importantly, what I have to offer for the rest of the world.
