I'm 20 years old and currently studying to become a nurse. Although i'm young, i have a lot of responsiblities. My family is the first generation to come here to the America, so there's no one to rely on. I've never ask anyone for anything before because everything I have, I worked hard to earn them. Recently our economy is going down, so it's been very hard for me to look for a job. But that won't stop me from continuing on my search. Everyday when I come home from a long day at school, I help tutor my nieces and newphews. I also make food for them to eat and bathe them before their parents come and get them. When their parents arrive around 3:30 pm, I rush to the Nail Salon to help out my mother who is almost reaching her elderly age of sixty. All the money that we make goes to the house bills. And our business have been going slow lately due to our economy. I feel really bad for my parents because they're getting old already, and I wish I can provide them with something that will make them happy.... like a trip to Hawaii or something. I really want to do alot of great things for my parents.... But I know it can't happen right now because I'm not done with school. My dad on the other hand has cancer. Although he's not working, he does attend an online class for Bible School. As for me, I help teach bible study for younger kids in elementary school. I also help take care of the older kids. I teach them praise songs and do fund raisers to help earn money for our church. one time we did a garage sale, and earn over $400 for our church. I've always been there for others when they need me. It's really hard for me to say no because I usually feel really bad. I'm always the person to come and pick them up and take them home when we have bible study on Friday nights. Although gas money is alot, I dare not ask their parents for gas money beacause I believe if you do good deeds for others, good things will be granted to you later in life. I really need money for school, for gas, my car, my house, my parents health, etc. There's so much things I need money for that I can't possibly write it all down. It would be such a great appreciation to get all the help I need. Thankyou for reading this letter.
