Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.

 

    My name is Evelyn Z. Rosa and I turned eighteen on August eighteenth. Both of my parents are 100% percent Salvadorian which makes me a 100% Salvadorian as well but I was born in the U.S so I am an American. I was born in Oakland California and my family and I have lived in Alameda since I was two, so I believe we only lived in Oakland for two years or less.

    Through out most of my life I had lived on 2136 Lincoln which basically that’s where I had been raised growing up. In 2136 apartment building was where I met a wonderful lovely white lady who’s known me since the age of two. Her name is Gertrude but as years went by we developed a close relationship where I didn’t just call her by Gert, I began to call her grandma Gert but most of the time just grandma. Gert highly considered me as her granddaughter since she didn’t have any grandchildren. She only had one daughter but her daughter didn’t end up having any kids. In the beginning I wouldn’t go to her house often but I did like visiting her once in a  while because she would offer me which she always had the best chocolate candy in the house. As year's went by we began to get a lot closer. We suddenly adopted each other, well, we would say that she was my grandmother even though blood wise we weren't.

    My family and I became closer when I was around the ages five to six. I began elementary when I five years young at Henry Height School. It was hard for my father to go pick me up as well as me mother since they both worked two jobs.
