I am writing this small essay to talk a little about myself. My full name is Maria Guadalupe Sagastume. I am a proud Hispanic that was born in the United States, with parents from a wonderful country, Guatemala my parents took me to Guatemala when I was only six months. I lived in Guatemala until I was eight years and a half. When I came back to the United States; after living in Guatemala for eight years, I was completely lost, since I didn’t speak nor understood any English. As you may assume it wasn’t as easy for me to learn English as it was for others who had lived here their entire life, but that influenced me to work harder every day. I am a very determined student that likes to set both short and long-term goals to keep myself motivated
