College Admissions Essay: A Career In My Life

I will be the first person in my family to go into any type of schooling after high school and that is something I have always strived for and something my mother who raised me on her own has always hoped for me. Watching her struggle to put food on the table and having to stay in a job she got once my father and her divorced that she did not love has made me determined to overcome all the obstacles I have had in my way. It has also made me very serious about entering the field of phlebotomy. A career that is growing overall and somewhere I can grow in as well.

I am currently employed at Texas Roadhouse as server. I love working with different people and interacting with everyone since I have always been a people person who loves to help.This is currently how I support myself, help my family as much as I can and how I will put myself through phlebotomy training at the Colorado Phlebotomy training place. …show more content…
Even working as much as possible working a restaurant and having that be your main support sometimes it's slow and sometimes you just do not make as much as you thought you were. I also help my mom and grandmother as much as I can financially.

This scholarship could help me get somewhere secure in my life. It can help me enter a field I am very passionate and excited about. This is the stepping stone to a life I have been working towards since high school getting good grades being inducted into National Honor Society and achieving Honor Roll throughout every semester. This scholarship would give me the amazing opportunity to work and help so many people as well as giving me a successful career path.

Thank you for your time and consideration for this wonderful scholarship
