My Name is Jaime Medeiros. I am a first generation Portuguese American. My parents immigrated from the Portuguese Azores, a chain of volcanic islands in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, to San Jose, California, in the 1960’s which was Farm country at the time. They have since raised a family of five of which I was born the fourth child. I was an honor student in Mission for several semesters. I managed to get my AA Degree last year in 2009 from mission college. Afterwards, I transferred to San Jose State University in order to get a BA degree in Political Science, although there are obstacles that are in my way such as my supporting my parents, paying the school tuition, and keeping my car running. I am confident that I will succeed in getting my degree. I grew up with a passion for sports mainly tennis, bowling, baseball. In addition, I love to read lots of books and magazines Anything from Encounters: With the Middle East to magazines such as Popular Mechanics and Time Magazine that involves critical discussion and science. However, my main interest is political science which is the analysis study of the workings of Government and why things are structure the way they are. I feel that one person through hard work and tenacity can make a difference within government to make life better for people. Whether it is paving roads, providing healthcare, or reforming the system of government. For instance, Bill Clinton helped balance the budget and Barrack Obama reformed the banking system and healthcare system that needed reform. I will hopefully get my BA in Political Science in the fall of 2011. However, I need to get better in my writing, so that is why I am taking this writing class for political science majors, for it will help me to write better so I can convey my message to the people. Afterwards, I will try to apply to a number of law schools in the Bay Area to become an attorney. In the far future, when I mature and become a successful man, I will be campaigning for an assembly seat in the California State Assembly. At that time, I will probably look back at my life of struggles and reflect how I went from a shy little Portuguese boy to a state assembly men serving the people of California.
