[Lyric] College essay rough draft (Rikki wallace)

My name is Rikki Wallace. I am a senior in high school and plan to graduate and further my education at a good university. The person that has had the most influence on me is definitely my mother. She has done so much for me and my sister throughout our lives so far and taken care of us. She has inspired me in many ways. My mother is very hardworking and always knows how to deal with tough situations.
I am striding to do well in school and get the best education possible not only for my mother, but for myself and the type of life that I want to live. I want to have a good education so I can have everything I want and be able to give my children anything they want.
To have a good education is very important to get where you want to be in the future. You have to work hard now and then you will be able to have fun after. If you do not have an education, the possibilities of you having the life you want are slim to none. That is why parents push their children to go to college and have good grades.
