Inspiration
Every one of us experiences a time in life where we meet someone who becomes special to us. Either it is something that person said that changed one’s life forever or an influence that made the difference overtime.
To me it was my college teacher who held that special place. She always had a way to push me to my highest potential. Even though she was my writing teacher she helped me recognize my writing skills and lit that desire to go beyond.
A friend or a special someone can only tell you but it is up to the receiver in what to do with it. Don’t let it die, keep it alive.
A Place I Have Lived
I have lived in several different places, but there is one small town that holds a special place in my heart, which is in India. It was wonderful to watch the passing of the four seasons in the little city where I grew up.
I especially enjoyed the interesting people who I remember as being so nice and wearing colorful clothing. My favorite of those people was my grandfather. Every evening as he would come to visit us, we could always find something in his pockets as he held us to love on us.

First day in an American College
September 22, 1998
My first day in an American college was fraught with difficulty. When my dad dropped me off, I felt so confused. Still, I had my schedule with me and I was ready to start with my first class.
As I made my way to the first class, I was surprised to find out that all the class schedules were changed. I quickly ran back to the main office building to get help. Struggling with my English, I explained about my situation to the help desk woman. She was so helpful and printed my new schedule.
Running around the campus I finally located all my classes. Even though I was late for my class, I realized one thing: confidence is the key to everything. It starts with as little as finding your way around the campus and slowly you make your way to higher levels in life.
