Attending college to some might just be a traditional thing that everyone in their family does. For me‚ attending college is truly an honor and accomplishment for not only my family‚ but for myself as well. As I embark the beginning of a new chapter of my life‚ I began to think this generic question‚ which is why do I want to go to college.
