The place where I am from is a combination of two worlds – one filled with fantasies and adventures, and the other with reality and life. Books have always played a significant role in my life; they have the power to transport me to different worlds. As I grew older, my reading preferences evolved from Dr. Seuss books to the Captain Underpants Series, and eventually to The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. These books have had a profound impact on shaping my personality and continue to fuel the dreams I pursue.
The reality of the world has always reminded me of my dreams and ambitions and provided support, whether with my family or friends. When I was young, I desired to be older; however, as an adult, I yearn for my younger days. Growth naturally brings about change, a
...ffecting different aspects of life like the literature I read and the goals I have. These books have educated me on releasing the past, embracing the present moment, and consistently visualizing the future in order to fulfill our aspirations.
These books have temporarily transported me from my own reality and engulfed me in a realm of cunning thieves and courageous heroines. They have instilled within me a powerful belief that I am capable of accomplishing any aspiration I desire. These literary works have educated me on the importance of establishing practical objectives, while simultaneously encouraging me to fearlessly aim higher once these goals are attained. Since childhood, my ambition has been to become a veterinarian and attend UC Davis. As time progressed, the literature I devoured bestowed upon me the self-assurance an
drive necessary to pursue my aspirations.
The support from my parents has been vital in shaping my ambitions and accomplishments. Their honesty keeps me grounded and realistic, yet optimistic for the future. I believe that with their ongoing support, there are no boundaries to what I can achieve. The individuals I grew up with have also played a significant part in molding my dreams. Similar to twin towers, my parents have consistently supported me in every endeavor and aspiration.
My parents, Kyndra, and Taylor have always been there for me, providing support and motivation. Even during times when I fell behind, they stood by my side. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am today. Kyndra and Taylor are truly priceless as they consistently supported me through moments of sadness or despair. What makes them special is their unwavering belief in my potential to succeed, even when they had doubts. They offer constructive feedback without diminishing my morale, enabling me to reach for higher aspirations and achieve the goals I've set for myself.
The individuals in my life have served as invaluable teachers, offering more help than anyone else ever will. Their collective influence resembles a vividly portrayed book that constantly unfolds within my thoughts. These stories and people persistently challenge my mind, shaping every aspect of my existence. Were it not for these influences, the harsh realities of our world would crush my aspirations.
Undoubtedly, times have changed over the years; however, with the unwavering support of my friends and family, I remain steadfast in pursuing my dreams. It is understood that growth necessitates responsibility and embraces change as an integral part. Without change, one can never truly
discern when they transition from childhood to young adulthood—a metamorphosis that molds who they become as they age. This transformation and its accompanying process shape aspirations and ambitions; yet it remains incumbent upon oneself to remain true to those dreams and goals.
