It's not just experiences that shape your life, but people. There are many people that have shaped my life, both good and bad.  are two people that inspire me and most of decisions in my life are my parents. They encase how I want to be both now and in the future. They both come from families where the odds were against them . My parents started a family in big town. That is where I see myself after graduating. While, because I have them, I can’t be exactly like them, that’s good because that will help me from plagiarizing there life.

I am constantly reading and all my favorite characters are remind me of my dad. They are usually smart people who overcame hardships. They also have a strong leadership position. He manages not to just be a leader, but a leader everybody loves. He once spent Christmas Eve playing Santa at a homeless shelter. He went to college a long way away from home and he took it not as a challenge, but a mountain to overcome. He takes all challenges and just stares them down. I believe he has helped me become the person I am today and I am proud to say that. My mother also has shaped my life, but in a different way. My mother knew what she wanted to do. She wanted to become a nurse. She didn't let the numerous antagonists in her way stop her she charged rite ahead and did it. My mother taught me that if you're not tall you can still have an intimidating presence to if you use your brains. She taught me that brains can solve any problem. She is the motherly figure in all the books. She reminds me so much of Mae Tuck in Tuck Everlasting. Mae is powerful and sweet. My parents have taught me many things in my life, but there are some things they can't teach. Such as the skills needed to make as a mechanical engineer and how to make it as an adult. M.I.T., I feel will teach me these skills, and whatever else I need to learn to become like my parents.
