To keep continuing on with this mentoring motif I thought of today, I thought towards my own mentor.
I'm in this leadership development program named Summer Search. It strives to help low-income or needy students to develop a strong character and a successful mindset towards achieving their future goals.
I love the program.
I love being able to say whatever and whenever to my mentor, uninhibited. The feeling on letting lose on someone who you know won't judge you is just pure joy. Though on a side note, I feel kind of bad for my mentor because she has multiple mentees and she must have to deal with a bunch of teenage ramblings about how bad life is. Bleh, haha.
Lately I've been thinking about my 2nd year trip. I'm really conflicted. Should I continue my college prep program at the UW, or should I take the chance to convince my parents that going to university in another state to study abroad is a better idea. I don't know...
However, in the end I think that I'm going to take the latter option. It just seems like an amazing opportunity to study abroad and I won't run into many other chances like it. Hopefully, I can convince my parents. Wish me luck.
