Autobiographical Narrative
I come from a family of Mexican Americans. both of my parents come from mexico but i was born in the united states. i have an older brother, an older sister, and two younger brothers. as i grew up in a house where both of my parents only Spanish was difficult. i would struggle trying to understand what people would say. at first when i started learning how to read, write, and speak English i had a little bit of trouble learning English because nobody in my house would speak it. my older brother and sister were the only ones who knew how to speak it but yet they like me were just learning how to speak, read, and write english. being able to speak both English and Spanish fluently has helped me insignificantly. it helps me talk to people that only speak either language. it is a great advantage because i'm able to understand what people are trying to ask for when in need of help. it is a great thing because i can help people translate papers or directions. when looking for it a job it can help me insignificantly because a lot of business look for people that are bilingual so they can help people when looking for something or when they are in need of help. being able to speak both languages can help you get a better pay in some jobs because you are a very skilled. now that i am able to read, write, and speak both languages i can help my parents with paper work and i can also help my younger brothers with any school work they have that they don't understand. it was difficult learning the language but once i started school and when i was put in an English class i started to get use to the language and to reading it.i had a bit of trouble writing it but i got better and better as time went by. coming from a family that has seven family members in it was difficult to try and make ends meet. i learned how to drive at the young age of 14 and a half. I began driving small golf carts that i would use to work at my uncle's ranch. my parents taught me to work for what i want. when i would work at my uncle ranch i'd get paid and i would be happy because i was able to buy extra shirts that i liked or some pants or some shoes. i liked working at the ranch because it wasn't hard. i would drive around every groove checking that any animal hadn’t bitten a hole in the water hoses. we would always see rabbits run out of bushes as we would drive by. we also saw road runners, and sometimes at nights we were able to see raccoon's, mountain lions, coyotes, wild boar, and other nighttime animals. growing up around those always interested me. it was fun going out at night hunting all those wild animals.
