my scholarship

Why is it that people always seem to think Manor is so low down and uneducated? I believe people in Manor are really intelligent and are just lazy. I think that if I were to get this scholarship people who are younger would look up to me and think higher of the school. The higher the education would help people realize how important school is to get anywhere in life.
I would be a role model to people in my class and especially to my little sister. I could possibly help people understand why it’s so important. I have an older brother and younger sister. We are trying to go to college because if we don’t then we end up going to the service and I really don’t want that. We don’t have enough money to pay for college without problems of paying money. Higher education will help me get a better job; I will not struggle in life. My parents will be so proud of me. It’s already too late for my brother. Nobody in my family has ever been to college. Most haven’t ever graduated from high school.
Maybe if I get this scholarship it will change my family’s idea of school. My cousins in a type of jail for adolescence and hopefully I can be a role model for him. He’s only 14.
We live in small town and if they realize that one person in our town can do something good in their life it will get around. Parents will be like wow my kid could do that and make something of their selves too. This scholarship could even help me recognize how much better I can do in school and motivate myself. I’ve been trying to get academics scholarship I’m also in sports. My name is Mandi Rose Cantu. I hope to help my family in the future. My family is very important to me and I just want them to make something of their selves. I always see my parents struggling and stressing. They always encourage me to do and be better then they did. My dad always gives me pep talks. He really cares and wants me to make something of my self. I’m always scared of struggling in the future. I see what all my family goes through and it really pushes me.
I would love to help people and let them know it was me who made us look better. Higher education would help everyone in life and people would succeed in life. People jus don’t care anymore because they feel that no one cares about a small town like us. Were already on the borderline of being shut down or turned over to the state.
When I get older I want to college to be a marine biologist. We need biology, botany, chemistry, ecology, fish biology, marine mamalogy and conservation courses. Were in college for 4 years for our bachelor’s degree and then 2-5 more years to get your masters degree.
Well thank you for the opportunity to get this scholarship.
Sincerely, Mandi Cantu
