I was born and raised in a well known city, Los Angeles, California. I was born on Halloween and sadly for my friends, I dislike it. I have always been such a talkactive little girl, but raised by great parents that made me realize how to appreciate life, be respectful and patient with things and people. I am a Seventh Day Adventist Christian, and for some they have never heard of it. They think it is horrible that I can not party Saturday's or wear Jewelery and what not, but to tell you the truth, I love where I cam from, what I believe in and what I respect. I am a very active young lady, I swim and enjoy reading. I have the greatest patience to sit and make bracelets all day long in which my friends or family find that for them to be too stressful. I go camping whenever I have the chance and never regret one moment in the wilderness. I have such great friends in which I rely on. I love the colors Navy, Burgandy, and Green, and I truely love Photography.
The greatest support I have had in my life has been my mother. Throughout my childhood I recieved the greatest advice, support, and love from her. Where would each and everyone of us be without our mothers support and love for each of us. My mothers name is Alba, but I call her by her middle name Veronica. Most people tell me calling your parents by their name is very disrespectful, but in my case me and my mother have an even closer bond between us. She can truely understand what I go through at certain times and I love that. Never have I ever been embaressed of her and never do I hope I ever will be. Most of my friends love her, and respect her in every way possible. It is not because she is mean or ungenerous, because the love she shows them in every way and how she truely respects and cares for them. I truely love her and appreciate her. My father is Otto, and he is one of the main people in my life that I show the greatest respect to. I am truely glad for him and for every sacrafice he has pulled for me.'
I have always liked going to school and learning, but I have not always been the brightest student around. I went to Queen Anne Place Elementary, I did well in my classes and was ahead in school a grade level. By the time I had started second grade I needed glasses and my teacher had never taken my problem of sight into consideration with my mother. It took my off track from my learning and I was held back a year back to my regular grade level. Although it was a great dissappointment for me it pushed me harder to try and do better and level myself out in school. I then continued on at Mount Vernon Middle School, which then became Johnnie L. Cochran Middle School. I did pretty well in Middle school, never failed a class and never had D's. I was proud of myself. I then came to West Adams Preparatory High School and did well in my classes. I tried my best and had a lot of help from all my teachers, special from Mr. Garcia-Lara and Ms.Crawford. I had moved out for about 3 months to a Private school my Junior year, Glendale Adventist Academy. I tried my best but they were already ahead in their classes, it was very difficult for me but I then appreciated all the help I had and made me realize I needed to put even more effort in school, I had then decided to com back last December.
I have never really thought of what subject is my favorite, but I have always enjoyed reading so I believe English is something I enjoy. I have received good feeback from teachers on my writing and reading and I truely appreciate that. Ms. Crawford has been a great English teacher for me. She taught me English for two years and taught me so much that I never believed I would really learn. She pushed me to the limit and never gave up on me. I did my best to do well and I did do well. It was a lot that I was taught and what I truely remember learning was how to write essays.
I see myself doing well in my academic future. I believe in myself, and I do know and believe I will accomplish what I put myself to. I want to study Psychology, Behavioral Science and recieve my Masters in both. I know it will be very difficult and a big leap for me in life, but I do believe I will accomplish it, on my own or with help. I have thought about becoming a Writing Editor, but sometimes I think it twice because I am not the best at Editing. I do believe in myself if you have not noticed, and I know I am a good student. I like to learn and focus myself, but I also sometimes distract myself and let life, friends, family, and any situation get to me and my studies. I am someone that needs a push from friends and family sometimes. I recieve whatever good opinions I am given and take it into consideration. I learn from my good decisions, not from my mistakes.
I was born learning Spanish as my first langauge, but began to learn English right after. I speak English fluently and I am very proud of that. I learned to speak early in my childhood which I believe is why I am a very talkactive young lady. I always did well in my English classes from Elementary until now in High School and never have I recieved a Fail. I want to do well throughtout this new year of English and I believe and know I will do well. I want to accomplish well and do good. I want to learn a lot from this class and believe my teacher is a very good teacher to teach and I hope I am taught a lot.
