My Familia

I am super glad to say that my father (Javier) mother (Estela) and two sisters ( Arlene and Ariana) are a big happy family. My father’s career consists of being a automobile mechanic.  Of course, when ever one of our cars brakes down he is there to fix it. For me he is very important because recently he taught me little things that can be a life saver when it comes to cars. For example, I recently began working forty-five minutes away from Oxnard; Meaning that I have a higher risk of my tires exploding. But my father has taken the time to teach me how to lift the car, loosen the lugs, and lastly take the tire off. In addition to that, I know how to check all the oils and (in a way) I know how to change them. My mother has a very important job. She works with a company that offers services to pick up patients from their house to take them to a facility where they receive dialysis (which is when patients get plugged into a machine that removes excess water and waste from the blood because the kidney does not function well anymore). When she got the job, I imagined that she would be taking people old in age. Surprisingly, she informed me she took young adults; as young as seventeen. My sister, Arlene, is three years younger than me.  I am very proud of her. She has also completed high school and completed the Regional Occupational Program, where she was trained to be a Dental Assistant. When she was still in high school, I brought her to work with me as a phone operator, now she continues to work as a Phone Operator at night and works as a Dental assistant during the day. On top of her busy schedule, I advised her to at least take a couple of classes. Being her older sister, and knowing what is out there, I have tried to guide her in the correct path.  Now, my youngest sister is approximately eleven years apart from me. She is now in fourth grade. She has been doing well at school. She is going to be ten in December and is maturing; she comprehends when we try to correct her when she does something she is not supposed to. Even though we all have busy schedules, we all manage to get together and appreciate being each others company.
