To break the generation's curse of poverty. I want a better life for my kids. I'm first generation, college student.Also, I was forced to drop out of high school. A lot of opportunity was taken away from me as well.This is a way for me to get some control over my life as well. Being a mother balancing college and homeschooling and pursuing a career in the industry is well work it. I'm getting a voice that I never felt I had. Poem By Courtney Seraile Silent Lamb I'm on the roof yelling but no one hears me I've been here for a while now. I'm yelling louder but yet no one wants to hear me. They want me to remain quiet and control me. They throw rocks that leave scars but yet they say they love me.

My goal is to move out of a poverty state and move where that are more resources and better education. My goal is to move to a tech hub city in a productive state. To help my kid's tech leaders to have the best education and resources for success.

The best back-to-school tip is to remember your why's. The reasons why you are going to school. This will keep you motivated to work hard in school no matter what else is going on in your life. For example, I was severely sick with co-vid I still completed my work on time. This was because I remember my reasons for being in college. Instagram: co.inspirational_

The three cultures I strongly Identify with is being a Louisiana Creole, African American and a Christian. The most significant in my life is being a Louisiana Creole. Louisiana Creole come in all shapes now a long time ago they would call very fair light skin African American Creole. In New Orleans they had high Society clubs and made dark-skinned because feel less than. Growing up I did not understand why I look the way I do. I started getting the question on my race. I would get called me white girl and people look at me out of dislike. I really didn’t know anything but that I was black until was treated differently. growing up I was told I’m black but even though I when to Creole and cajun Festivals. I didn’t know what I was because nobody told me. I never really realized I was different I was bullied and abused because of my light skin and eyes. I never fit in. I was the pretty I people around wanted to be but I didn’t know. It took educating myself on the History of the Creoles in Louisiana to help understand. It doesn’t make it less difficult to feel not accepted but at least now I know what I am. And I can defend me when people talk about the color of my skin. I’m so introverted because of what I have been through I stay at the house a lot. One day I hope To leave so I can feel free and accepted. African American is another because growing up that was all I knew I was. I never fit in. In Louisiana I still get to look at Up and down. I get pre-judged about being pretty. I have always been shy so it making things very difficult for me. I’ve been through so much trauma And just wish I could feel accepted. I know because society a lot of women here feel that things would be easier if they were lighter. It has not been for me. On the Other hand, being a Christian has helped me get through the hurt and painI have been through not being accepted. I would not be on this earth if it wasn’t for faith. With the abuse, betrayal, and racial abuse I would not be strong Enough Without my savior. God gives me strength and he teaches people It’s the person’s sin and spirit that causes them to do hurtful things. He teaches me that I am wonderfully made in his eyes. The humanities The object I believe in is truth and goodness and my faith aligns with that. My kids and my veteran husband who suffers from PTSD make me focused and determined to finish college. I have a strong work ethic because I don't give up because the skills my army veteran taught me. I

Computers inspire me because of the life-changing effect it has on us as a society. Computers help everyone in their everyday life. For instance, paying your monthly bills is one. Also education as a mother of three that also homeschools, I wouldn't be able to without computers. Computers are a life saver it helps people to work from home and also educate themselves.Computers help people to earn a living. Covid has made things more difficult for us. We are able to get virtual appointment to our doctor's people of computers. With computers, we are able to go and retrieve data that can alternate people's lives in a major way.From looking at statistics research to demographic research holds the key to society. With data people make changes to healthcare and policies. Without computers, we would not be able to go into databases to retrieve and analyze this data. Which leads me to research. Without computers, we would not be able to conduct research as we do. Computers hold so much data that can save your life instantly. Like if you have physical issues you look up online then be able to get an idea of what's going on in your body. That can lead to you or someone calling an ambulance or doctor. As well as using maneuvers to save a life. I feel without computers we wouldn't be able to make in life as we do. Covid is on the rise and remote work is the way to go. Without computers, this would be impossible for most jobs. In conclusion, computers save lives daily and make it possible to have to solve life problems.

My name is courtney seraile mother of three. I am a child and sexual assault survivor. I grew up in a single mom home with five kids. I'm studying data because data changes live. There is so much data in the world. I especially want to work with abuse data or poverty data. I see myself getting in o the criminal justice field eventually.

One of my talents is singing practice I am on youtube. As well as Instagram and karaoke apps. I've been noticed by celebrities on Instagram and they have reposted them. Singing is my passion and like the air, I breathe. I'm an abuse survivor so singing is something that helps me. One day I would love to help others through original music. I hope that I can change a least one person's life when I sing. I believe we are giving gifts to share and change the world. That's what I hope to do one day is change the world with my music. I remember when I was younger feeling broken and alone. One song changes the way I felt completely. I think my life was saved a lot through music and songs. I have always been shy but when I sing I transform and feel alive. I love singing and writing about true stories are encouraging things. Hope and faith change lives and this is my goal is to do so.
