My Biggest Challenge

When I was in high school I needed to decide what career I was going to study and my friends and family used to put a lot of pressure on me asking every single day if I already new what I was going to do. 
I was very confused because I love to dance and I've always wanted to be a professional dancer and travel all over the world giving shows and dancing for people. I used to talk to my closest aunt and grandmother and they always told me that if I decided to do that I would have very few posibilities of being succesfull and that I needed to think very well of what I wanted for my future, so I used to think a lot every day since I woke up that I needed to decide if I was going to a "regular" college or a dance academy finishing highschool. I had friends in one of  the bestest universities of all my country in the city of Mexico and they always told me that I should go overthere to study because they loved it, so I got exited and started to do all the rearch about the university to see if I like it. During the searching I noticed that the school was very expensive and I got really sad but then someone told me that the university had a lot of scholarships and that I should try to audition for the dance club. I was very happy because dancing was going to help me to get into college and I knew I had to do something very big and rehearse a lot. When my teacher tought me the dance I was very concerned because it was very difficult so I began to stress a lot because I had very few time. I would practice three or four hours a day without having a break, my feet would hurt a lot and I always finished very tired, stressed and angry. I thought I was never going to be ready for that dance because I have never had one that hard. 
One day my teacher told me that I was doing very well, I didnt believed her but she insisted that I was ready. The audition day came and I was very nervous but I knew that I could do it, so I did my best and I got the scholarship, I was very happy because I still was going to dance everyday to keep my shcolarship, it was the best thing that had happened to me. 
This is the biggest challenge that I've had till now, I wonder what my next challenges will be...

The reason I'm in GLION

In this spot I am going to talk about why I chose GLION as my career.
First of all I want to say that my favorite class of all times has been math and because of that I started to have curiosity in the career of administration, math was a class that I was very good at and that I like the most. When I gratuated from highschool I was very interested in administration so I started studying it in a another city, but the truth is I didn't like it because I thought it was boring, that it needed something else but I didn't know what was that thing until my best friend told me she was going to study GLION and said some great stuff about it, I felt like it was just what I needed. I would have math, hospitality and some cooking lessons! of course I got interested and very exited. So lets see what this career has to offer.
