Also, during Middle School I was part of the YMCA Youth Institute, which improved my social skills as well as giving me new skills on computer based programs, especifically the Adobe programs and FInal Cut Pro. At this point of my life I had already been exposed, for years, to the culture of the U.S and knew exactly how to become successful here, by continuing to study and go to college. This is why when I started high school, I didn’t…
