I am a everyday hero because my siblings look up to me. Being the older
brother at of all has changed me because they look up to me like I look up to
my dad. Growing up with three brothers and two sisters has been hard. I was not
going to go to El Camino College because I was planning to work full time. I
had a good discretion that if I learned construction from my dad I was going to
get paid good because he is a very well dexterous worker. Later on my parents
would be on my head to go to school and do better than them. One night, I was
in the couch thinking if I should go to college then I realized I hadn't reached
the zenith of my career on getting my criminal justice career. Then I went to a
counselor at El Camino and decided to apply to college. My next step toward
college is being a full time student and transfer off to Cal State Fullerton or
Cal State Pomona. Financial issues are another problem with college. Since I go
to college I have to pay for the books. Books are expensive, especially if you
have a professor that’s mean and makes you buy $200 or more for a book. Having a
job and going to college as full time can be stressful and tiring. But thanks
to my mom and dad they never belittle me and I always feel motivated knowing
that all the effort I put in I would get the outcome of it later on, it just
takes time and dedication. Knowing that once I get my job of what I want to do
would be a great thing. Knowing that I am hero I never look back and just take
steps by step every day and motivating people to stay in school or go back to school. I will always be euphoric and don't let no one belittle me.
Keep on being that role model for your siblings. Sometimes a role model is what a child needs to believe in themselves.
ReplyDeleteI know it's hard being the oldest, I myself am the oldest of 3 siblings, and it's scary knowing that you can't mess up because they look up to you. Just be the person you would want them to be one day and keep up the good work (:
ReplyDeleteI understand its difficult being the oldest because I grew up seeing how my older sister would struggle. Keep your head up high and don't give up
ReplyDeleteIt's going to get easier eventually. Don't give up and keep on going. All the hard work will pay off. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteDon't let the cost of college stop you - there's financial aid and scholarships available here at ECC!
