Have you ever dream of a life so different from everyone you know that you hid this from people so they would not call you crazy? Or, for some time, you even conceal this from yourself till someday you succumb to your dream and see yourself study TV Writing at the University of California (UCLA), but you cannot afford it? So, this is me. In September 2020, I enrolled UCLA-TFT Professional Program in Writing for Television (Online).
I am a Brazilian black woman who lives in Ceilândia Sul, in Brazil, considered at once the biggest favela in the world. I am now 45, but since I am 20, I dream of studying abroad at a good university. I have got a partial scholarship from a Brazilian Organization. But this month, I have to pay the amount of 2 thousand dollars to UCLA. I only have 500 hundred. It lacks 1,5 thousand. Please, help me write a better story for my life.
Thank you very much,
Best,
