Dr. Skocik
Maryland and Virginia Tech. My passion for living my life to the fullest how he taught me to do
went away. He talked to me one night and told me, you know to just put your faith back in Gods
hands and let him lead you through this troubling time. Those powerful words hold true due to
the varying circumstances my family has been through.
When both of my parents lost their jobs in the early 2011 due to the school they worked
at closing due to financial ramifications, things looked destined to go bad for my family. My
parents called all the kids still living at the house into a family meeting, one that weve never had
before. They broke the news to us and we didnt know what to say or do at that moment. My
parents told me to start looking for a job now because they needed me now more than ever.
Family over everything except your faith in God is a value I always live by. My family still has
financial troubles and I leave school to go help them out, which reflects in my grades.
My fathers main values he instilled in us was that to always keep faith in God, family
over everything and also to make sure to treat everyone with respect and dignity no matter how
they treat you.
