Ever since I was a child I have taken my academic studies seriously because I knew that one day I was going to have to grow up and in order to be successful in life you need to have an education. Now, I won’t sugarcoat this, but I’ve always been afraid of the thought of going to college because I would look at college tuitions on pamphlets and see at least three zeroes behind every number. Thoughts would race through my head thinking how will my parents ever make this amount of money and was college even worth going to? I’ve grown up as a low middle class child and college was never mentioned in my family, I guess you could say that they were ashamed of the fact that they couldn’t give us everything and to make it worst maybe even college.
