My Hope and Dreams

I have really high expectations for myself and what I am capable of this fall at Mount Olive College. I have very high goals for myself and have revised what I believe to be a well guided plan to achieve them. I feel eager and excited to unleash my mind, thoughts and the power of my determination. I know that it’s going to be a lot of hard work and its going to take a lot of time. Also, with that comes the bittersweet of sacrifice, of parts of my life that I am going to have to change in order to succeed. But my grandfather has always told me “anything worth having is worth working hard for.” I am my biggest critic and supporter all in one. I know that the only person that can stop me from doing what I came to do is me. No one else has the power to stand in my way and I refuse to let anyone stand in my way or hold me back! I’m ready to get into the whole swing and flow of college life and what it has to offer me. I have to admit that I am a little nervous about keeping my work load and my school load both equally balanced but it’s a challenge I am willing to face head on.
I mostly look forward to the sweet taste of victory and the feeling of success. I have people that support me and want me to shine like the star that I am and have always been. Then there are those negative people around you that pretend they want you to succeed but you know they are waiting to see you crash at full speed. I can’t wait to prove those people wrong and see the expression on their faces when I walk across the stage and get my degree. I’m a turn their negative intentions into positive motivation and use it to drive me even harder towards my hopes and dreams. I can’t wait to see my mind and thoughts grow and evolve more and more every day. I know that the person that I am now and who I will become after this experience will probably be two different people. I know I'll have a new outlook on life, different aspirations, new goals and unlimited opportunities. I have no doubts about
