program I will be able to find a job that does not require
physical labor.
Now that I find myself in school after so many years, there
are insecurities—fears that make me feel inferior to the other
students. Trying to learn a second language has been very
difficult especially because sometimes I have a very hard time
focusing and comprehending. But somehow I have managed to
pass my classes, and that shows me that with hard work and
dedication I can accomplish my goals. Now I hope one day I
will go back to Mexico, find kids that think the way I thought,
and inspire them—not to buy a truck but to set educational
goals in their lives.
