The Reason I'm Here

      The reason I'm here is that I want to be successful in life. I love cooking that's why I chose Gastronomic Businesses. I had a bad experience after high school. My dream was  to leave to Napa Valley and study culinary arts in The Culinary Institute of America. It is the world's premiere culinary college. I receive an early admission letter where I was being congratulated for being accepted. I felt like everything that I had done to reach my goal was all worth it. I had already made my choice to leave and start my life thirhteen hours from my home, but I was still dreaming. It was way to expensive for my parents to support me: So I called and I cancelled my admission.If you ask, it was one of the most difficult decisions I've done in my life.

       After all that I decided to apply for the Art Institute in San Diego. It was all perfect. I had requested loans and my financial aid which covered for my whole tuition. But when it came down to housing that's when I saw myself in very stressful situations. San Diego is very expensive, so it was really hard for me to find an affordable place. I tried everything! From roommates to renting a room in a house. NOTHING worked out! 

      So these are my main reasons why I am here. I took my last option which was stay home and go to school in Mexicali. I was in denial at first, but I realize that I am at a great university. I feel comfortable and motivated to give my best and succeed at every single thing I set my mind to! I am aware that it will not be easy, but hey who likes easy challenges !
