people Many start their educational journey just as I have, starting from nothing and
fighting for everything they earn. I have had a very difficult life that would more than likely
overwhelm the average person. I have dealt with a broken foster care system, switching schools
and homes for most of my life due to the mistakes of another persons life. I have lost my friends
countless times and restarted my life more times than I can count, nevertheless, no matter where
I was or what I was going through I have always kept up with my education. I have never
thought of school as a burden. Education has always been my light at the end of the tunnel, an
escape from the needs and wants of the underprivileged lower class system. I know that the only
thing that sets me apart from the next guy is the knowledge Ive ascertained over my years of
study and my own insatiable drive for success, so I will continue to learn and grow as long as I
can to make me and my life better. I am resilient.
No matter what impediments I must face or challenges along the way nothing will stop
me from bettering myself. believe I everyone should have to earn their place in society and Im
willing to fight for mine, and I do not believe that any institution in my range will better prepare
me for the working world than University of Central Florida. The University of Central Florida is
a well diverse institution offering a wide range of curriculums as the site says Theincredible
opportunitiesatUCFareboundless;oneisonlylimitedbyone'smind... The University of Central
Florida is one of the very few in the state that offer a study program in Aerospace Science. This
is important to me as I had long dreamed of flying for the Air Force until my senior year when a
colorblind test killed that ambitious goal Just short of enlistment my senior year. I plan on
starting a flying business someday doing what I had always dreamed and with the help of
UCF, I can hopefully run it efficiently and successfully. If I am accepted to UCF I will guarantee
that I teach the community the most important lesson I have learned in my 20 short years.
Where you begin does not determine where you end, only how you get there.
