I was bullied and teased of how not only of my bad acne also I had an image of being a “good girl”. I tried many things so I couldn’t be teased and I almost fell into depression.

As you can tell from my letter i'm gonna be attending a higher level of education next fall. Currently im working towards my goal for graduation and hope to have those same goals when i begin at the university. The major that i wish to obtain is sociology meaning going into the social worker department .

I never had to go thru this but my life as a child wasn't all that great and i know that by obtaining this job i can better the lives of others.

By the age of nine i was already counting and handling money for my mom as well as selling and buying items for her . People would just look at me because they didn't believe they were gonna do business with me but in the end they were left impressed.This is the same goal i have for my statement today except that i'm already a young adult and you're one of the top schools in america. Hope to here from your school soon to begin my
