I am a 19-year-old Mexican American who believes that everyone should enjoy life to the fullest. To live my life to the fullest, I keep in close contact with the people I care about because material possessions will not matter at the end of my life. Family has always been the most important thing to me. I have two younger brothers and I take on the responsibility of setting the footsteps that they can follow. I have experienced the best and worst times of my life in the past 2 years. UCLA has been very challenging, but also very rewarding. Living in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood all my life kept me from realizing the reality of the world we live in. I do what I do in search of my purpose in this world. I hope to realize soon enough what I really love to do because it would complete me as a person. Some people know exactly who they are and where they belong, but I have not been as fortunate. For the same reason I like to be open minded. I enjoy doing things because I feel like it and I want to live a life with out regrets. At times I do make bad decisions but I don’t look back, instead I look ahead and learn from it.
