INTRODUCING MYSELF
Hello! I would like to introduce myself to you. My name is Marciela Perez. I am a
student from the country of the El Salvador. I was born in a little town near San
Salvador, the capital of our country. I graduated from high school there. I came to
the United States two years ago with my mother and my two sisters. We went to
New York, where my Uncle Eduardo lives. We lived with him and family in their
house in Brooklyn for six months. He helped my sisters and me get jobs. I work in
a sweater factory is near City College, where all of us take classes to learn
English. Now we have our own apartment. My sisters and I work during the day
and go to school at night. I want to quit my job in the factory and go to school
fulltime. I hope to go to college and become a nurse-practitioner. I speak Spanish
fluently. I do not think I have any other special talents. My hobby is making jewelry.
I like to go to the movies. That´s all!
