music

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.000
They gave me an opportunity

00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:12.000
that I didn't think was possible

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:13.000
for me to have.

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:14.000
If I wasn't here,

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:16.000
if I wasn't at Western,

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:17.000
I definitely wouldn't be

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:18.000
the person I am today.

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.000
It just means so much to me.

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:21.000
Like when I got the news,

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:22.000
I was so excited.

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.000
I like, texted all my friends.

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:26.000
I can use to then

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:27.000
further my education,

00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:29.000
and to become a better person

00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.000
and to put into the world

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.000
what I've been able to get out.

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.000
It just, it changes our lives,

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:35.000
like having the opportunity

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:36.000
to go to school.

00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:38.000
College is something that's achievable

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:40.000
because of people like them.

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:43.000
and I'm determined

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.000
to reach my goal.

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:46.000
People like you

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:47.000
are the reason why

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:48.000
people like me are here

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.000
right now succeeding,

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:51.000
and graduating college.
