Typical of any foreign student in America, I had great conviction on landing in this great nation more than three years ago, that anyone can make it in America. I had great hope anchored on that American dream that this great nation had a place for me to be the best that I could be, and I am grateful to confirm that my experience here thus far constantly reminds me that that the American true nature and characterful grandeur is in promising the common man, that he stands a better chance to make it here that any other common man would anywhere in the world.And so I set off for a long journey of knowledge and enrolled at the University of New York at Buffalo for my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Upon completing which took me only three years, a great feat for a foreign student, I was faced with two conflicting persuasions one from within and the other from my wonderful parents back home in China. While I wanted to have a go at working first and then pursue my higher education, my parents, with tremendous concern wanted me to immediately enroll for the masters first and then I could get a job later.At that time my mind was clouded on the best option to take and not wanting to disappoint my parents, I felt compelled to pursue further studies.
