Hello everyone!!!
Hi,
My name is Carmina and I live in Texas. I came to the US when I was eight years old. When I was in high school I did very well and was involved in extracurricular activities. I was a member of the National Honor Society and I graduated as an honor student. However right after I graduated I didn't know what to do. Everyone would always ask me if I was going to go to college and I would say yes although I thought I couldn't because I was here illegally. To make the story short I finally decided to get informed and finally found a way to enroll in college. I must say it has not been easy because I have had to work at the same time to be able to pay my tuition, but the whole experience has given me a sense of accomplishment. There have been several times when I have felt like giving up but I still push myself harder because I believe that no matter what my immigration status is that I have the right to be educated and gain more knowledge. As of right now I half way through my junior year and with God's help I believe that I will graduate with a bachelors in bilingual education. I even plan to go further and pursue my maters degree. Besides as the old saying goes "what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger."
