Santana has been offered a full ride to the University of Kentucky as a part of their cheer leading program. However she wants to pursue a career as an actress by moving to New York City. Her mother wishes she would attend college, saying, "New York will be there after you graduate." Her mother also supports her in whatever she decides to do and is willing to financially support her until she makes it in New York. Santana being a logical person decides that her dream can be put on hold while she goes after her education.
Santana will receive a degree in something like communications or public relations. She will have qualities which future employers will admire and she will get a good job which will help her support her family. She will live comfortably and maybe even enjoy her lifestyle.
However, everyday she will wonder what her life would be like if she had chosen to go to NYC. She will never know whether she is talented enough to actually make it. She will be plagued with doubts and uncertainties. Santana will in the end regret her choice. It is better to fail trying to reach your dreams than to not pursue them at all.
