Hi everyone!
It has been almost a year and a half now since I returned from Argentina. It took a LOT of adjusting but I am finally back in the swing of life in the U.S. I have been dying to go back to Argentina and hopefully (fingers crossed) I will be able to this summer.
Next year I am off to college which as everyone knows, costs a lot. I am asking all of you to do me a small favor in order to win a scholarship. With this scholarship, I will have enough money to cover my education costs and be able to return to Argentina with what little money I have already saved up.
Please do me a quick favor! Open this link and click "Vote" on my essay. http://www.wyzant.com/scholarships/v3/essay75427-Deming-WA.aspx
There are no personal questions to answer and no additional contact -
just the click of a button. This is an essay about what I want to do
with my education that I entered into a $10,000 scholarship competition.
Winners are picked based on the quality of the essay as well as the
number of votes the essay receives. Each computer (IP address) can only
vote for my essay once so if you have multiple computers, ipod touches,
ipads, or iphones, please click on this link and vote from each one. The
few seconds it will take you could help me afford college. If you have
already voted for someone else in this competition, don't worry, you can
vote for multiple essays just not the same one twice. Please forward
this message onto anyone you think would take the time to help me out.
Feel free to share this link on social media sites such as facebook,
twitter, or with groups/coworkers. I have until May 1st to collect
votes!
In the essay I mention my Spanish skills. Those skills were what I acquired in Argentina over a year and really have helped me pursue my dreams. I am so excited to be able to use Spanish in my future profession as well!
Thank you all for your help! And if any perspective exchange students are reading this, DO IT! It will change your life for the better. :)
