gracely luna - college essay final lyrics

being born and raised on the navajo reservation in new mexico, where native american indians were grown to make history. living on the reservation made me experience life more adventurous, because it was me exploring horizons and living my childhood life to the fullest, not many children can go out and play on the reservation, where the sun is hot with large mountain peaks and beautiful canyons that you can see a mile away. exploring these adventures made me who i am today, and when i am older, i can remember these spectacular experiences, growing up there taught me many different values in life and help me cope with cherishing family moments, especially me being a native american indian, we have and believe in religion, navajo culture and beliefs. being a native american is a prestigious honor for me, having brought up differently and not the same as some young american families is something i cherish, having a navajo culture is rare and i am very proud of where i come from and who i am

my sister is one of my role models, she taught me to never give up and always push yourself to become a better person. she inspired me to be who i am today, and to not give up, to have high expectations and positive outcomes so that i can contribute to having a better future. my older sister has graduated high school and she now goes to a university in arizona, she has made me realize and made me want to have a better education, i will further my education by going to college, so i can have a good steady job later in life. my sister has also partic-p-ted in cross country; she received a scholarship for cross country, she told me to not give up on my soccer, because it’s my p-ssion, and to always finish what you start even though life can have bumpy situations along the road

when i was younger, i was always close to my mom; she always gave me a reason to be a better person and never to give up on life. if i fail at something, she always told me to keep moving forward, even when you take the wrong path. i remember in third grade, our schools were going to partic-p-te in the spelling bee, and i wanted to win and take first place in my cl-ss. i begin studying every week, writing down words on flash cards, my mom helped me each day after school. i studied and studied and studied loads of words that were from 1st to 5th grade. i felt confident as the days and weeks by, i was fully determined, and all i wanted was to begin!

finally the day came, i walked in the cl-ssroom ready, pumped to win, after waiting, which seemed like a century, in reality it was only five minutes. the instructor called my name, i walked to the microphone, nervously shaking, palms sweating, heart thumping, they told me to begin spelling czechoslovakia, i was anxious, because i didn’t remember, my mind went blank, i looked straight into the crowd and saw my mom smiling, i looked at her and in back of my head, i saw czechoslovakia pop up like a light bulb with clouds, i also heard my mother’s voice echoing and telling me to not give up, try your best even when life is hard

i began pr-nouncing the word in my head and finally begin spelling, suddenly the buzzard went off as soon i was done, the instructor smiled grimly and told me i got it correct. i smiled with happiness, i could feel the joy in my heart and eyes, all the hard worked paid off and i won the spelling bee, the reason i won was because my mom was there by my side to help me study and told me i can achieve whatever if i give it my all, just strive for what i want and never give up. till this day, i look at my trophy and smile because with hard work, comes determination, i just have to put in hard work , so my mom is one of my role models, just like my sister, and i look up to both of them and cherish the moments i can spend with them
