Jacqueline's Story
Life
I must say I have adapted to California life here. Very different from the southerners. I especially adapted very nicely to the wonderful weather here. Couldn't ask for more. I miss Houston definately, but not the weather! This is my first time away from family. So it took some adjusting. I still miss them very dearly. I call home almost everyday so it wouldn't feel so much like they're in another state.
I've been here for a little over a year. Living in the bay area Oakland/San Francisco area. The city has its perks. Lots of filipinos! So, I can relate to a lot of my peeps here. I feel like I'm home (Philippines). My Tagalog has gotten so much better. :) Another perk is that my family (aunts, uncles, cousins, lolas) are mostly here. Family is always a plus. Free food! :) Of course, I'm missing my family back home in Friendswood. My little brother is a senior this year at Brook and he's excited to graduate. I told him to cherish every moment of your senior year and do well in all your classes. Do not skip, b...Expand for more
y any means, any classes! Because it's never worth it. Don't worry about friends right now because what matters most is "you" and your education. Don't worry about what's cool and not cool. Because in the real world no one cares! And you take care of you and only you. I'm sure many peeps can vouch for that.
Anyway, I have 2 years left on my nursing program at Cal State Hayward for an RN degree. I'm excited and anticipating to finish and finally get into the work world of medical care. I'd like to work with children but one must build experience first. So, my first year will most likely be graveyard shifts and convalescent homes. Doesn't bother me at all. It's a challege that motivates me. I juggle school and work Mon-Fri and on the weekends, I relax with family and friends.
I have just one final phrase to end my note, we are put in this world to live and be the most of ourselves and I know everyone is capable of that! I am humble, simple, intellegent, confident and happy! thanks for your time! peace out!!! jax
