The time that I had found out about my aunt graduating college and starting her career changed my views on education forever. My dad told me about his cousin graduating college and how she was gonna work with wind turbines and also travel around the world. She lived in Detroit but was moving to Texas for her career. She would post all about her job and how she really enjoyed it. My aunt being praised by our family and seen as one of the successful members of the family inspired me to finish school and to also get a career just like her. I also took inspiration from her career choice because she works as an engineer and I saw how I can be an engineer since I also like to work with computers and hardware.
I have not seen education as being the number one goal in my life because I liked to do other things that I enjoyed doing. But I now know that education will build my future and get me to do what I want in life. I also find education interesting since I learn a lot more from it than i do anywhere else. My aunt made me realize all this and I appreciate her for it. I wouldn’t be as involved as I am in college than I was before I found out about her.
