A college experience has given me a second chance at a future. Just two years ago, I barely graduated high school with an interest in joining the military. I didn’t have the funds to go to a good college. Instead of the military, I took two years off to do community service. As I tutored elementary students I learned a college education is just as important as passing the 3rd grade. It wouldn’t make sense for me to teach students how to read if I wasn’t doing the same. I have been in school for about 3 weeks. It has been one of my best decisions. I am officially happy and content with where my life is headed. I’m following my dream of being an Architectural-Engineer. I’m not only doing this for my students, but also for my biological, adopted and U of D Mercy family.

Saving, SuperMan
I wish I could be your superman / but I know you're tired of people trying / so I'll leave it up to you / my hand is at your reach / just know when to grab on / cause I don't want to see you fall / let's spring up / and bring summer on your smile / I just want you to be happy /
I see you sitting, chillin’ /
With a gleam in your eyes /
Diamonds in disguise /
I know you wanna cry/
How do I know? /
Cause I rely on my senses /
To show me you’re tense and /
I want you to relax /
Subtract the last guy /
Let go of past tries /
You might just find /
True lines need no trust /
Since lust is lost /
In the history of misery /
Life’s a mystery /
I wish I could be your superman / but I know you're tired of people trying / so I'll leave it up to you / my hand is at your reach / just know when to grab on / cause I don't want to see you fall / let's spring up / and bring summer on your smile / I just want you to be happy /
I remember the day I met you /
You had a set dude /
But it became a set fuel /
With feuds to fuse hate /
You replaced love with weight /
Time to unwind and let free /
Release the tension you mentioned /
To your friends about a future /
One never ending mutual /
But arguments absent /
Of the love once made
You’re stuck on what’s to fade /
But that comes with trade /
A new face of faith so great /
I wish I could be your superman / but I know you're tired of people trying / so I'll leave it up to you / my hand is at your reach / just know when to grab on / cause I don't want to see you fall / let's spring up / and bring summer on your smile / I just want you to be happy /
Trials do come by /
but I wanna see you fly /
see you lie on the clouds /
relaxed, so sound /
nothing profound, just calm /
stand on my palms /
reach for the God /
love with no facades /
add laugh to pass /
on the cruise to truth /
I know it never set you free /
So be imperative to words /
Relative to gold /
Uphold you soul /
Strive for your goals /
and love some more
