Personal Statement
I would like to further my education at a 4 year collage to major in law or Human services (social work). I would be a great aspect to your team because i'm really determined and i will try my hardest to push through any struggle or obstacle i'm also a very fast learner . Growing up i had a pretty hard life in a city in Connecticut called Bridgeport where either you end up in the streets, locked up and or dead. My dad was murdered when i was 7 years old and my older brother and uncle was always in and out of jail. When i was 10 years old my house burn down so my family and i where homeless for a little while. Friends that i went to school with or just knew from the neighborhood started getting locked up and killed, and still are to this day. I was always in trouble, would get into fights which got me suspended from school because of how angry i was.
My mom thought it would be a good change if we moved so on September 11, 2015 we moved to Lithia Spring, GA with my aunt and uncle. I started a new school and i join the track team. I always knew i wanted to run when i use to watch Usain Bolt and Shelly Ann Fraser run but never had the resources or opportunity . It was a new setting; new atmosphere and a new environment that really gave me a better out look on life and gave me something to look forward to. This is when i fell in love with Track & Field. Track really changed my life it bettered me as a person and academically.I would also be the first of my mother and father children to graduate from high school and continue on the college. I love make my mom and family proud. I'm a very dedicated and strong headed person and when i start something i finish so my journey isn't over.
