Past, Present, and Future

                Hi everyone, my name is Yesenia. Most people misspell it or once they try pronouncing it, it sounds more like “lasagna”. With that being said, most people call me Yesi. I am nineteen years old soon to be twenty. I as was born in Jerez, Zacatecas and raised in Oxnard. Life to me is made up of memories that you make every day which will lead you to your future and make you remember your past.

                I live my life day by day, but I also keep in mind that tomorrow is never promised. I’ve lived a rough life, but nothing I wasn’t able to overcome. My past is full of memories some are bad, some are good and they all seem to have marked my life. I came to the U.S when I was six years old unable to speak English.  My language, lifestyle, and whole life changed. Those changes just made me a better person which lead me to where I’m at right now. I graduated from Oxnard high and ROP as a dental assistant in 2011. I am Radiation Licensed and I am currently a dental assistant.
                 I love my job, meeting new people and getting thanked with a smile every time they walk out the door makes my day. I work full time and also manage to go to school. I try my best to keep myself busy and active. I am working on myself appearance in hope of reaching my goals and being healthy.  I live with my parents, brother, and little sister. They make my life complete, and for them is why I try to always accomplish everything I start.

                 I can’t tell the future, but whatever is in store for me ill make the best of it. I would love to pursue my dental career as a Dental Hygienist, but also study cosmetology. Those are two way different careers, but they’re not impossible.  I want to try my best in supporting my family and helping them pursue their dreams just how their doing it for me.
