My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Venezuela | Tuesday, June 4, 2013 | 5 photos

hi my names Linda, i am daughter to Portuguese parents. i was born in Venezuela but raised in London. i am fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese. i studied photography in London but i only did one year, i then had to move back to Venezuela. i am always going back and forth, i guess its one of the upsides of having divorced parents. i would like to have this opportunity because i want to learn about new culture, i don't ever want to stop finding out about how people live so differently, i find it beautiful, it reminds me never to take life for granted. i also want to learn from one of the greatest, and be able to say 'Jason Edwards taught me this' and not be lying about it. what drives me to take a better shot is competition, i like having competition, its what wakes up that fighter in me, what makes me want to be better. why i should be chosen, well, i can not stress how important it is to me to learn new things, better myself everyday. im very social i love to meet new people and hear their story. i am determined i always push forward i don't care how difficult the task may be. life's hard, but i don't think i can afford to be a pessimist. i am grateful for this opportunity.
