Being in community college is like swimming in deep cold water as fast as possible. The coldness surges my goals to go on to a university. I am swimming fast because I want to push through the trials and tribulations of life. College for me is not easy because I am juggling a job, volunteering, and getting good grades. No matter how hard college gets, I will not fall under the pressure to give up because I am the first in my family to pursue a higher education. College has always been my dream because I knew it was a way for me to achieve my goal of connecting with other people.
