I came to college because I felt I needed to do it to better my life for my son. Nobody expected me to go to college, it was my choice. I didn't look at any non-college options because I want to work at Mayo Clinic and I want to know as much as I can before I work there. My son played a huge roll in me decision to go to college but now I have a different reason. As I have said I am a single mother and some of my relatives look down on me for that. I know I have made mistakes but I feel my family should not treat me different. Once I started college some of them encouraged me but others said I wouldn't make it basically saying that I am a screw up of my family. I know I am not perfect like some of my relatives but I know I have to graduate college. All of my cousins went to college right after high school. It may have taken me six years but I am here now and doing it. I am not all that smart and I know this is going to be challenging for me but graduating from college is one major goal I have in my life now. I have to prove to my family that I am not as bad as they see me. I am hoping if I can do this that I will get the respect that I deserve and they wont look down on me anymore.
