New Chapter in Life
The main goal I set for myself is to be the first one out of my family to graduate high school. My Parents inspired me to stay in school and finish because they never had an education. Seeing them how hard they work to give me everything I want is something to really look up to. Being able to be the role model and someone my younger siblings look up to is a great achievement for myself.
The obstacles I faced throughout my school years were that since my older brother didn't graduate he would put me down and say I couldn't do it or to just give up. Other obstacles I faced was that since I didn't have noone to tell me what to do during school, for example signing up for tests, deadlines, just things I didn't know, for that I had to find help from friends or teachers. One of the quotes that i really like is “When life throws you lemons, make lemonade” I like it because no matter how much times you try just never give up. My family are the ones who motivates me to success. I want to prove to my parents that I could do it. I don't want to keep making the mistakes my older brother did. I want to be the one that makes a change and proves everyone who said I couldn’t be an overachiever wrong.
My goals after high school is to go to college and graduate as a Registered Nurse. I really enjoy working with little kids so i want to be a Pediatrician. I am a very outgoing, party, funny person but someone who always puts their education first before anything. From my family my parents don't speak english so I have to translate for them or help them in the stuff they need. Usually my weeks go from Monday, Wednesday and friday to study, stay after school and complete extra work like level 4’s, Tuesdays and thursdays after school I go to my CNA class which is preparing me for my future, weekends I only use them to relax or go out and have some family time. There’s sometimes that I have to work with my dad. My mom doesn’t work because she is Anemic and is sick. I don't brag about working because I know it’s for my own good and i ain't going to win anything just whining about it. Something I know is a good benefit of working is that i'm saving money to pay my college expenses that may be financial aid won't cover for me. My parents takes my younger sibling and I to work to teach us that the life they live isn’t easy, for that they want us to get a good education and get a better pay job. Because of my parents I am the person I am today. Without them both I don't know where i’d be. I am really thankful to have them in my life.

Say No To Abortion!
Did you know in abortion your life is at risk too? Women now at an early age are getting pregnant. They are willing to abort the child. That child is an innocent life that does not deserve to die. In the article it says that “The women can also experience the loss of their fertility or an increase in miscarriages.” In my opinion a child does not deserve to die because their parents were irresponsible. The child did not decide that his parents would have sex without contraceptives. Many women don’t realize that unborn human beings are living separate and unique; they are innocent lives. Recent reports show that women experience different forms of disorders such as mental, emotional and physical. According to different type of social media, and articles if you don’t want a child use contraceptives or there are other options for the human like adoption or other organizations.To sum it up, abortion is wrong. Society would be better if instead of aborting the human life, use contraceptives. If someone has a problem like this and doesn’t know how how to react or needs more information they can call to NAF hotline at 1-877-257-0012.
