My "Glow-up"


One of my experiences that made me realize i was growing up was doing college searches. All throughout high school I have been a pretty chill person and laid back and relaxed but during my senior year I had to do a lot in order to make sure i got into colleges I wanted to have all the assets to afford to go to the school. It started to kind of stress me out when my school counselor would ask me to do a lot of stuff at once but i knew it needed to be done in order for me to go somewhere. Same with my mom, it was like every two days she would ask nonstop about if i need to do something, what is the school saying, wtc. Another thing I would say help me realize i was growing up fast was when i ahd to make a decision on if i wanted to play basketball in college or not and what the right school would be and if they had my desired major. I was constantly trying to get my coaches to find new places and asking them about others and film. I am still kind of in my glow up moment right now as i try to find more ways to help me pay for school.
