So here I am sitting on the plane starting my journey back to Lima. After 5 days of interviews with college coaches and intense college hunting my time to return home has come.
If one month ago I felt nervous about the application process and getting ready for college I can now say I am changed. My whole mind has transformed, I now feel ready and anxious to start applying to college.
As the plane started to drive off Logan airport I started feeling nostalgic, it was as if the beauty off this city had captured me and I was ready to call it home. I had only felt this feeling twice before; when I left DC and NY. I can safely say these are the three cities where I would happily study.
As I walked among those brick giants I felt they stood upon me the same way a mother does when she looks at her newly born for the first time. It almost seemed as if they were telling me to stay.
Aside from the enchantment of the city the snow falling and the freezing winds that danced around me made me have an experience like never before. They say experiences are what shape our life... This one will stay with me for life.

Before this vacation I had been studying and doing my homework but all of a sudden from the moment I said “hi” to the first director of admissions my productivity multiplied by 1000. It was a click that occurred in my brain that made my whole body say" it's time for college".
Since I had my AHA moment I have done 5 sections of my ACT study sheets, bought two entrepreneurship books to read this year, read 3 chapters of "The Lean Startup" and created a soccer intense training routine to reach my peak performance for my trials in July and August.
This trip to Boston has opened my eyes to a completely new world that I never thought existed but one that I surely know is the one I want to live in. I am determined to make this the best year in my life and nothing will stand on my way because I will take it down as a bulldozer breaking a wall.
