I AM GOING TO LOSE IT

I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO LOSE IT

WHY IS EVERYTHING THAT CSUDH DOES SO *TERRIBLE*

[myblacksneakers]

To know where you’re heading in life you, never forget where you come from.

I started this blog back in high school, “My black Sneakers” I had notebooks and then transition myself to digital blogging on google had a blogspot. I tried to continued but life just got harder after high school.

My real adventure of “my black sneakers” started when I first got hired by an employment agency, I was 14 years old. I worked along side my mother, during the summer break. I wore multiple hats, was a picker, sorting out fruits and vegetables. I worked in the manufacture clothing industry, sorting out clothing that I will never wear, they seemed ugly for my taste but they were overpriced for my budget at the time. Also, worked at many other places that you can’t imagine, the most fun was working inside a freezer sorting out fish. You can’t imagine the smell afterwards, people in the bus thought we were homeless women whom didn’t showered. But, the best part was the pay, a job that no one wanted to do.

The whole summer, i spend my time working, overtime hours, and i liked it so much that, i decided to leave high school. My mom was happy that I decided to leave school to help her with the bills. She never discouraged me to stop.

I believed that education wasn’t for me at the time, and that I didn’t need it, so I left 9th grade, to work at the warehouse industry. In my 10th grade year, I had to go back to school because, a letter was send home, that my mom was going to go to jail if I didn’t return to school, so, she then said you have to go back. I did. I wasn’t really doing great, I couldn’t find myself sitting in a classroom while the teacher was on her phone texting someone, i felt it was a waste of my time.

I was approached by a counselor whom said, I wasn’t going to be able to finish High School because, I was out for almost a year. I decided to take his advice, and place myself on a continuation school where, I was going to be able to catch up. I didn’t tell my mother, she found out after, I took myself out of school. Back in my day, the schools weren’t that strict or had the time to verify for accurate information. Today, you can’t even take out your own kid from school with out asking for an ID.

I join a new school Cesar Chavez, I really didn’t want to go there but, I needed a high school diploma to go get a job, it was a new requirement. In my time at that school, I met a really nice Women, her name is/was Boadi, she was a Business Computer Science instructor at CSUDH.

At my new school, 3% of the student didn’t have children the rest had 1 or more. I started to see their struggles, and I heard their stories of how they ended up there. I took, Ms Boadi class because I was curious about Computers. Our project was to create a website for CSUDH. Many joined but only a about 5 girls remained in the class.

To our surprise in the end we all got a scholarship, and a book from Book from Maya Angelo that particular book which I still have in my possession today. Ms Boadi said she saw something in me she didn’t see in the other girls, besides the other girls where complaining about the scholarship, they thought it was going to be more. I was happy to get $1,000. I spend my money getting myself contact lenses, and few clothes, and I gave the rest my mom money.

Ms Boadi asked in what I spend my money, and I told her the above. I managed to Graduate in the Summer of 2002, and it was great because, I managed to get into El Camino College by the fall of 2002. During the Summer, I got another job, at CSUDH with computer programming, and a Scholarship with all expenses paid to New Mexico, and other Scholarships like a Computer etc, so, when I started College I’ll be ready. She was a really good friend, and mentor. I do miss her and always remember her.

I didn’t major in Computer Science but I went into Business Administration. I graduated in June 2009.
