About Myself
My Story
Hi, my name is Tamisha Trevino. I go to Thelma R. Salinas STEM Early College High School and
I am trying to get an Associates for Computer Science. I live in Mission, Texas with my mother, 2 sister and grandma. I have always wanted more then what my family has now. The hard ships that my family has faced has change my ideas of how I am suppose to see that world. I don't want the same mistake that my parents did when they were young.
My mother was an immigrant that came with here father to get a better life then the one she had in Nicaragua. Her father abandoned her with another family and left with her older brother somewhere else. My mother started school in middle and had a very hard time understanding English. At the time, people where very hard on her because she didn't look like the other kid. she was poor and used hand-me-downs by the family she was living with. She worked hard and when entering high school she join US Army JROTC. She meet my father in La Joya High School and got her pregnant at 18. She was determined to finish school even took me with her to school and her high school prom. Now she work hard to take care of 3 girls.
My father isn't a super hero but as a child I saw him that way. I am grown now and see that all human have their faults however my father had to many to begin. My grandma work very hard to take hare of all of my uncles and aunt. The problem was that my father was very rebellious as teen and that grew more as he aged. He never saw the thing that he did and it grew too extreme form my abuela and my mother to help him. his path got shorter by days and now he doesn't see the sky any more because of his stupidity. He never finished high school but he was educated in street smarts so there's something. He has not grown and life only last so long. I just hope this time he will change.
My life is is more of trying to reach the top and create something of myself to protect my family. I have always been the hope in my family, and sometimes I just don't see it. But I try my hard to show everyone that doubts me that I will be something better that what I have now. I was a troubled child, I never really gave anything as I grew but when my parent divorced I had to become something more. I saw the violences that was created between both of them and that wasn't healthy for a child. I need to grow up because of all the thing that was happening in my family. So I did and now I am in Texas A&M working on getting further in life then the people in my family. Now I work on my major and my draws that have helped my when I felt like falling. My goal is to become a better me and coming to this intern-ship will help me achieve this goal.
I am with my two sister and my mother. My mother is in the middle, I am holding my little sister,and the middle is next to my mother.
