About My Mother


About My Mother


I admire many people because they influenced my life. My mother is the most important person in my life. First, when I was a kid, my mother always took care of me. She taught me the most important values that I have. For example, She taught me be honest, and polite. My mother taught me to treat others with kindness. Next, my mother is very intelligent. When my father passed away, she kept the business that my father had. My mother was a hard worker. When my mother was going to work in her clothing store every day, she always woke up at six in the morning. She helped us to get ready to go to school, and then she went to work at the store. Finally, my mother is one of the most generous people I know.She always gives her time and service to other people. She taught me to serve others when I am feeling selfish. When I was living with her, my mother sat beside me, held my hand and gently kissed my forehead and told me, " If you wish to succeed in this world, you have to remember that you have to give in order to receive, and it is better to part with someone as your friend and not as an enemy". My mother taught me that, if I want something badly enough and worked hard for it, there is nothing in this world that can stop me from getting it. My mother is the most important person in my life.

Just me!!!


Hi, my name is Amalia, I am 20 years old. I'm from La Habana, Cuba. I have been living here for almost 6 years. I have a two year old daughter and a wonderful husband. I am going to tell you a little bit more about my personality, interests, and my goals. First of all ,I consider myself as a good person ,very sociable and amusing. All my friends can say that I'm very confident and dedicated to my family. Second, when I have free time I spend my time watching TV and one of my favorite movie is called "The Notebook". Also one of my favorite time is when I make the dinner for me and my family but I prefer go out for dinner and eat in somewhere else, who don't prefer that, right?. I love restaurants and nice places like Bayside, and Vizcaya. Some day I will like to travel all over the world, that's one of my dreams. Last summer I went to Cuba to visite my mother in law. She met for first time my daughter Analia. She was so happy that I could not stop mourn. In third place, I want to mention that one of my goals is  to finish my career and have another child. I'm planning to be a social worker because I really enjoy helping others to suceed in their life. I think that one of the major reasons that people don't succeed in life is because they don't have a point of reference and good advice. That's part of who I'm; just a part of me.

This is me
