When I was younger, maybe around 13 or 14, I didnt really have anything I was good at. I remember in middle school, all of my friends were doing sports and talented in that respect. I tried, however I failed miserably at tennis, track, etc. So I left middle school feeling like I was talentless. Entering the highschool, I was without a hobbie, and without a clue. BUT,  serendipitously, I was placed in a beginners studio art class by my guidance counseler as my elective course, being I didnt know what I wanted to take. This was a marvelous act of fate, and I remember when ever my art teacher would tell me my work was "beautiful" or that i had "potential" or "talent", I was so glad to have finally found something that I excelled at. Fastforward four years, and I have since filled my highschool schedule with various art classes where I have developed a love for art more than anything. I learned, too, that I loved not just the conventional drawing or painting, but things that are relatively new and even more unprecented, such as film and photography. I applied for many schools, all with art in mind, but my dream school is Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY .  I applied and was accepted!! with a merit scholarship of $18,000. This is great, except that it doesn't even put a dent in the approximately $61,000 tuition. I have also applied for various other scholarships here and there, but they do not seem to be adding up either. I just feel as if I have such big dreams but have been driven into a corner because of them. I would love if anyone could help me! Any donation would help, and even if you are unable to donate at this time, share my story on social media! "The power of one, if fearless and focused, is formidable, but the power of many working together is better."-Gloria Macapagal Arroyo   "Window Light and Looking Off" 2015 Won Best in Show for Congressional Art Competition for "An Artistic Discovery" in 2015   Link to "Cancer" (2013) "Cancer" 2013 Won Best Music Video in Show for the Rod Serling Video Festival
