I believe this semester is one of the best choices I’ve made in my life. There has never been anyone in my life who is comparable to George Rivas, my painting instructor. I already have an infinite respect for him. I am very much looking forward to my future. During such a fragile transition in my life I believe meeting George is very crucial to how I will redefine myself. Words can not express what his presence in my life means to me, this is another reason why I am with my whole heart grateful to be a student of his.
