My Life

Education is a huge part of my life. Education has taught me many things from my basic education to being able to drive. Going to school and learning may be a hassle throughout the year because of waking up early but learning has it’s perks at the end. Career skills made a big impact on me because it has taught me how to get a job. My social life is really big to me. Family sociability comes first always because you will have them throughout your life, but your friends may leave over time. I…

Influencers Ever since I was a little girl I liked going to school. I always did my homework on time and my mom and dad always helped me in what they could. I came to Yuma when I was nine years old and I was very fortunate because I didn’t know a word of English but I learned real fast. My parents thought me about responsibility and honesty and told me that these are very important in life no matter what I did or where I went in life. They told me that getting an education was very…

My grandma has always been a big part of my life, from accompanying my mother on the journey of my adoption to always supporting me.

1. Life Story Ever since I could remember my life has been an amazing and insane roller coaster ride with a lot of ups, downs, twists and turns. There were a couple of significant situational issues that happened in my life and only have been resolved a couple of years ago. These issues were tough to beat but they have shaped me into the person I am today. It all began when I started first grade, I could tell that I was different from the majority of the kids in my class. I was a slow learner,…

A father’s role in his children’s life can change their path from birth. Although the court systems are just now recognizing the importance of a father’s impact on his children, this has been a critical aspect of development for years. In today’s society the relationship between a father and child is not only encouraged, it’s supported by years of research and studies. When I was a child, this was not the case. The formative years are very important to a child and the parents role is to guide,…

My mother always tried to give me a love of learning throughout my whole life. I can remember when we went on our group nature walks to learn about wildlife, and while we were discovering about wildlife we would search for bugs and collect them and learn all about them! Also we would go out at night and look at the stars and study the star constellations names or try to find owls and discover what type of owl they were by the sound of their hoot. We would visit the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art…

I am starting a new opportunity as I take my fist step on campus. I was happy, nervous, and afraid. On the first day of school, I stood at the front of the campus, and a small whisper echoed in my ear, “Usted debe hacer mejor que nosotros” which means “You must do better than us”. The saying came from my grandpa who recently past away. I took a deep-breath and stepped forward to my first class at a university. Cirilo Santiago Bautista is my father’s father, and he grew up in a small rural town…

My first year of college, I experienced the greatest tragedy of my life. Some may say she was just a dog, but to me, she was my best friend. My Chihuahua, Tiny. I received this dog as a gift on my second birthday. At which point, she would fit in my father’s work pocket and pester me throughout her “puppy stage.” Over the years, Tiny grew into a best friend, more so than a pet. However, much of this changed when we found out she had a fatty benign tumor. 1.) At the age of 13 in 2013,…

I was talking before about the influence of teachers later on in my life after intermediate I went to because I was too young to apply for medical course I had to go the different route of B. Sc honors and M.Sc that way because I did not want to wait for the medical course I joined in B.Sc. B.Sc I did…

Overall, grit is visible in my personal life, different forms of art, and in the world. I had experienced grit before when it came to writing and my grade in the class. I truly care about my performance in writing and any subject in school because I know that I have pressure on me from home. Furthermore, I was struggling with my usage of high vocabulary words, making my sentences flow, and grabbing my readers into my text. I didn’t want to let my parents down; therefore, I tried my best to…
