look up to, and Wharton represents an invaluable opportunity in which I would be able to prepare myself adequately, in order to accomplish all that I have ever dreamed of.

At first, I would reveal my ethnicity of Guatemalan and El Salvadorean and people would respond, “ Isn’t that in Mexico?” or “It is the same thing as Mexican.” This actually disturbed me because I had travelled to both Guatemala and El Salvador and as to Mexico, but Mexico lacked something that the other countries had and that was family.
