I am... Scholarship Slam


I am the kid who at age 10 came to the realization that I had grow up because I had no one to lookup to. 

I am the kid who had to go through life and realize not one person was the same. 

I am the kid who in High School knew that College was a luxury not a requirement. 

I am the kid who finally graduated and knew College was for me. 

I am the kid who at the second year of college, won't know if second semester is a possibility. 

I am the kid who, doesn't want to let their parents down. 

I am the kid who doesn't want to leave school. 

I am the kid who wants a better future to help my parents. 

I am the kid who doesn't want to give up yet. 

I am the kid who wants a better life for my family. 

I am the kid who wants to graduate  from College.
