Help me to further my education.
Hi, my name's César (for those who don't already know me) and i'm a 32 year old guy.
I'm here asking help, in order to be able to attend college. In my early years (educative years) i didn't had a lot of chances to attend college - either i didn't had the resources (money), or my mother never showed interest on my pursuing of a higher degree of education and all she wanted was for me to work, or simply i made bad choices. Now i'm working at IBM as a staging manager (OS deployment and further configurations) and IT Admin (Junior). My progress in the company (2 years already) is slow and in order to climb this corporate ladder i wanted to improve myself. Learning SQL and programming (all i can master) and further my knowledge in server workstations, Server OS config, VMWare and so forth. But now as my mistakes caught up to me and i'm getting old i feel the weight of all my past, and all around misuse of my time in a way that i can't describe, but it's heavy. I'm a father of an 11 year old boy that is currently attending school. He is so bright and looks up to me.
I want to be a role model to him, and education is key.
I had a family member that was (and still is my role model), and i know how to be a disappointment to him. The frustration of the years wasted in vain, in stupidity and working jobs that had nothing to do with my career path.
I only ask of you (if you can) to help me attend school at IST - Instituto Superior Técnico or any (as prestigious) engineering school. I don't ask for a full payment. This is only a small help in order to continue working and studding at the same time.
I want to attend an Information Systems and Computer Engineering (Master degree), no matter the cost (time).
If you help me, i'll be forever grateful and you shall receive a life time of IT help :)
