What motivated me to go to college was my older brother who passed away and my family. My brother since I was little told me don’t fall into the life that we were living in because if I did I wouldn’t be anyone in life. From that day forward I took what he told me and had that motivate me to do well in school. My family motivated me to go to college because they wanted me to be one of the first people in my family to go to college. Furthermore, I'm going to college to make my family and brother proud of me. Another reason why I’m attending college is because I want to be the best at what ever career I choose to pursue.
I can’t say there wasn’t pressure to go to college because there was but I never saw it as pressure. I knew I had to go to college right after High School because I didn’t have time to waste to be working and take years to move to a manager or any high rank position in a job. The only way I knew to be some were in a high position in a job is to get an education while working.
I believe Puente will help me in college because they will assist me in choosing the classes I need to take to succeed in college. Puente will also help me narrow down my options in choosing a career that I will be interested in and that I’ll enjoy. Puente will also show me the options I have in colleges to choose after completing Foothill.
This is important to me because I have a lot to gain by going to college. Plus college is going to shape me into the person I become later on in my life.
