Being a Hero

   Being a Hero is a great role model not only for ourselves, but also for those who are in our lives. I've been through so many difficulties in life. When I was in middle school I wouldn't take school seriously. I thought it was a fritter of time just sitting in class listening to the teacher and not even paying attention to what he/she was explaining us. In middle school the usual classes they offer is about seven in some schools. I would only assist to three from all of them. My grades started going very low and it got to the point where my parents were contacted. When my parents were informed of my grades and non-participation in class as in attending classes, they decided to move me too another school where I was placed on a horrible class. Why horrible? Horrible because, in that class I had to be with the worst and bad behaving students. That made me analyze of how much things I was missing, and that all of that was irrevocable. I didn't want to relinquish my education, I started giving all my effort in school till the zenith of my middle school. I was able to accomplish my goals that I set myself and also made my parents proud of me. That was one struggle I went through, but now thanks to the great support of my parents I've made it to college. This is my fourth semester here in El Camino. I'm really grateful of all the challenges I've accomplished and continuously will. I'll be a great hero for my future baby I'm expecting and will always motivate him/her just how my parents did to me.
