My Life Struggle
I am a twenty-two-year-old Latina in a community college. As a young adult people would think that I have no problems, and that I just live a nice simple life. But who could ever image that I would find my Achilles heel in an English writing course that prevent me from reaching my goals and accomplishing my dreams. I have taken a writing class since I started school. When I was nine years old all of that changed. When I moved to the United States of America, I had to learn how to speak and write English from the beginning. Having English as a second language has been my biggest challenge and biggest fear. When I graduated from high school I was scared that I was not going to graduate college because I was scared that I would …show more content…
The fear escaped when I took my first English class and I passed it. The professor made me so proud and motivated for my second part of English class. I thought to myself “This is easy”; I was going to pass the class. I showed up in the second part of English I said to myself, “I can do this; I can do this”. The class seemed easy, but the teacher was holding a very high expectation in the writing. I did my first paper with a hard work because I do not much time between working five days and helping babysit my sibling and school. I finished my paper and submitted my paper and got a D.

But because I have fell my classes I am still here I just want to finish and get my career. In the process of retaking I also spend a lot of money that I could have use for other thing. When all of this was happening I didn’t care I was paying my own school. There for no one could say anything about me not passing my class. Know I change I don’t know why or how it happen but I care for school I became a little more responsible with. I want to pass all my classes and move on. I regret the money and time a spend on nothing, I guess that’s the prices I had to paid to learn my lesson. But I am sure learn a lesson the hard way. I learn to do not take anything for granted because in the long run you would lose what you love the most or you would lose time that you would never get back with lots of regrets. Even though I have fail English a couple time I decide that this would be the last time. I learn that yet English as my second language is Achilles heel I will embrace it. I would be a success. I will do what I can to improve my English writing I will work on my mechanics and grammar. After achieving this goal I will become a successful
