2. This is my life…

3.  Let me tell you about my life. I was born in Ecuador. At Quito city, on May 6 of 1995. My family is formed by my parents,
my older brother and my little sister.
 I thank God for the great family that He gave me, principally because my family is united, it always has been like this and I
am sure it will continue that.
 My parents have known how to teach me values and principles since I was a little girl, now I feel very happy and confident
of who I am.
 After a few years after my birthday my parents decided to move to another city. It was Santo Domingo. At first it was very
difficult to me to settle down there. I should say not even the channels on the TV were the same. But after a while I got
used to it.
MY
LIFE

4.  I did not undergo pre-kindergarten, but instead I went directly to kindergarten, which I studied while I was at Ambato. Then
when I moved to Santo Domingo city my second year of school started. That school is called Nazareth, is so cool and well… the
most expensive there. My parents love me so much, so they have always wanted give me the best education possible.
 My brother and my have always been together in the same school, every year my parents chose a different one for us. That had
many disadvantages for us, but it also allowed me to meet a lot of teachers, learning techniques and other students.
 In the school I felt most of the time safe and happy because my older brother was always around.

5.  While I was advancing on my school courses, I began to notice that every time I had to be more
responsible to keep up my grades.
 It was always on my mind that my parents were giving a lot to me, to keep me in a good school, so I
always felt a little bit of pressure but I also wanted to be thankful to them.
 Now I feel happy because I reached my goal when I graduated, I felt so rewarded and I know that my
parents were very proud of me.

6.  After my graduation, my parents and I decided that I will help them as a secretary on their company, it was a
rewarding task, it brought me really good experiences, and a new way to see the world round me. Not as a
student anymore, but as regular worked, trying to be helpful.
 Working at the company help me to learn how to deal with customers, how to make invoices, deductions,
sales notes, important business calls, manage collections and payments an so on. Sure, I felt very supportive.

7.  After some time working for my parents, I began to think about continuing my studies. So I talked to
them. They gladly accept it, and they offered me all the help that I can ask for. They paid for the
Stephen Hawking course that helped me to get a good score at the ENES test.

8.  Currently as you may know I study here. At ‘Universidad Tecnica de Ambato’. So now my objective is to
achieve my dream, get my degree.
 In conclusion, I love my life by the following aspects:

9.  I born healthy , complete and up to today I do not lack anything.
 I grew up in a home where there is love, peace, respect and all those wonderful values. My family and I are Christians and that is
the best decision I have made so far and for all the eternity. If you got to know me you will see that I am a kind woman, respectful,
responsible, cheerful, amusing, sociable, cool, and with good feelings. You will see that I keep my values and principles. I thank
God every day, for my life, my family and for all the good and bad moments, because I have learned that everything happens for a
reason. Even if we do not know it. I know that everything has its time and its place.

10. Thank you for
your attention.
