- So my first day at Notre Dame was super
different from home.
I got lost so many times.
It was kind of scary at first
but I just hope that the week
just continues going great
and that I get to meet new people
and I guess that I
find a sense of what
I want and what I need
and maybe discover who am I,
as weird as it sounds.
- While Betty was gone,
at first it was very difficult
because it's our first child going away
but I think that it definitely was a
great experience for her to be able to
see what it's gonna be like.
- What I realize over
here is how I'm perceived.
There's definitely a lack
of diversity over here,
so I don't necessarily quite fit in,
especially when I'm talking
to people over here,
they're saying that they traveled a lot
or that they go to Catholic
schools or private schools.
I guess I'm generally intimidated
because I come from a
totally different background
in comparison to theirs.
It teaches me and shows
me how different I am.
Back home my situation is a norm,
so it's definitely quite
different, so yeah.
- Now that Betty has come back,
I think that it was a great practice run,
as far as what it would be like
to see her go off to college,
and we are very proud
of the work that she did
while she was in her summer program.
- [Betty] I never necessarily
was an independent person
until these three weeks and I'm glad that
I took the opportunity to go out there
and visit these colleges
and theseuniversities
and it's definitely an
unforgettable moment for me,
and it's definitely gonna
just change everything.
