Autobiography
My childhood dream was to pursue a course in the medical field, although I was not quite specific with what I wanted to do, I used to admire medical practitioners. My mother is a doctor, and she is my role model, I liked the way she used to handle minor diseases such as fever, and cold when I was a child. When I was a sophomore, in high school, one of my friends introduced me to diagnostic medical sonography, and it interested me. Looking back to my high school years, we were not introduced to college as we should since everybody expected us to get a diploma and be done with education. I graduated with honors, but I still feel that I am smarter than that if I exercise my full potential.
I later joined Blue Ridge Community College where I was told that my ACT grade was not high enough for some of the courses and therefore I had to take them once again. As such, I enrolled intermediate classes before I could take up the actual course. After two years in this school, I felt wasted after councilors told me that I did not need to retake the courses that I had enrolled earlier to get into a diagnostic medical sonography school. I felt that I was not going anywhere and therefore I transferred to another college where made a completely new difference. At this new college, I was able to graduate associates degree, but unfortunately, I had missed the deadline for radiology school and therefore I had to wait a while longer.
As I waited for the next application opening, my brother Alex was involved in a car accident; this was after getting into a fight with my parents about him drinking at a party.

He got angry and left with his truck and hit a tree, he suffered significant injuries, and at 18, he got a hip replacement and could not walk for six months. As such, he had to drop out of school, as he was required to stay at home on bed rest. After a year without schooling, he was depressed and got into wrong company. In 2016 November he was arrested for auto burglary, my mother was devastated and she lost a lot of weight. This brought a lot of stress to my family because they would not bail him out, as he needed to learn his lesson; this made him hate my parents even more. Everything that was happening eventually led to my father having a severe heart attack where he had 100 % blockage in his coronary artery. Luckily, since my mother is a doctor, she knew the symptoms of an attack and rushed him to hospital. This was the most difficult moment of my life with my dad in the hospital and my brother in jail. My dad could not work with his condition, and my mum had to balance work and to take care of him. As if that was not enough, my boyfriend got involved in a car accident and died on impact. Once again, my dreams of having a beautiful family with him were shuttered, this was my lowest point in life, and I was almost giving up.
I have gone through a lot in my life, but I am positive, as these challenges have molded me into who I am today. I do not blame my grades for what happened in my school life as it has a lot to do with my mindset. I have learned that every class has a significant impact on getting into various college programs. I am confident that once I get to school, I will strive to be the top after all, I have been through to get to this point. I have realized that I can do better if I get serious about my work. I have retaken my ACT courses, and now I have a good score that I am proud of. More so, I am ready to take on the next step of my life, which is pursuing my childhood dream. Throughout my life in school, I have learned that no one will help you achieve anything everyone is for themselves. The world requires one to step out of the comfort zone in order to excel in life (Toor, 4). I have realized that competition will not get me anywhere and therefore I have decided to go with my own pace, even if it takes me five years to achieve what I want in life I will still be patient. I thank God for my parents, as they have been the greatest source of motivation in my life, they have never given up on me and have shaped me into the person I am today. About my personality, I am very sociable and outgoing; I also love dancing, traveling, exploring new cultures, interacting and meeting new people. I am a person who speaks out her mind and probably if you ask me about my opinion about something, I will not lie. As seen earlier, I have been through a lot of stress, but I never let that to overcome me or prevent me from pursuing my dreams.
