I wake up every morning and thank God for everything that I have going for me in my life. My life consists of my family, my friends, and my microcosm at UCLA. It is not a coincidence that I am at this stage of my life right now. I am where I want to be, living the life I want to live. I live life by this way because I have been raised with the confidence that I have the ability and the strength to do anything I want to do and be anyone I want to be. I have never been forced to do something I haven't fully endorsed and my family has never looked down upon me if I did not fully meet my goals. I contribute most of my successes to my parents. Without them I would be nothing that I am today. What I have been pushed to do in my life is live my life with a great amount of effort, so that when I am done I cannot look back with disappointment or regret.
I am a proud brother, son, grandson, and student because I live my life with an attitude that cant’ be obstructed by life’s obstacles. My family is such a crucial part of my life that it gives me the stability in my life to be a happy human being. Without happiness I could not do what I do because I can. Rather, I would do what I do because it’s all I can do. Happiness and fulfillment in my life gives me the drive to LIVE. Living has different meanings to everyone, but to me it means that I must live in a way that will ensure my happiness, along with those that are closest around me. I live and will continue to live the way I want-just because I can.
