Student purpose

My purpose in life is to be better than my parents. The reason why I say this is because; they did not do something and had opportunities that they did not take. That is one of the most reasons I set my standards so high. Everyday when I am at home my money constantly remind me that I am smarter than she is. She did not make top ten percent or graduated with honors as I did. But like she always says she got her diploma and received her bachelor degree. She always that I am an educated black young man. Now it is time to take on my next challenge in life to have a successful future. That next big step is college; the reason is I will be the first child that my parents have that go to college. I believe that going to college will teach me new thing and to learn how to become a man of my own. So one day I can be an intelligent individual who can provide for a family of my own in life. This is the reason why I set my standards so high for myself.
