PLEASE GIVE ME ANY SUGGESTION TO MAKE MY STATEMENT BETTER

200 WORD
Please provide any other information about yourself that you feel will help this college make an admission decision.
This may include work, research, volunteer activities or other experiences pertaining to the degree program.
Looking back, I visualize my setback as a leaky rowboat, navigating the voyage but also being paranoid about another leak. My journey has been eventful. It has built my character and I wouldn't change it.
Before confidently pursuing Landscape Architecture, I faced a set of disorientation. I went through unrelated majors. Retaking failed classes, and ultimately feeling unfulfilled.
Sophomore year I took a semester off. I didn't know what to study and had depleted school funds. Although the insufficient funds sound pitiful, it was a blessing. After all, it's what I told my parents to get off my back for a little. During that time, I worked at Midtown Garden Center, a quaint little space tucked between luxury high-rise apartments. This is where I gained experience, knowledge, and gratitude. Creating arrangements and small landscaping made me think about the possibilities on a larger scale. Digging deeper I bought Garden/Landscape books, joined plant clubs, hosted plant workshops, and attended Tropical Plant Expos.
My trials and tribulations connected and concluded an epiphany of my passion. I intend to use my artistic personality and horticulture awareness to impact my community. I believe that the University of Florida program will fulfill my passion.
