Me Bio

Hello, my name is Michell Rojas. I recently turned 20 on December 25. I am originally from Hart, Texas, but this past Christmas, my best friend of three wonderful years proposed, so we will be planning a wedding in three years from now, after graduation. I am the oldest child out of four. My wonderful parents gave me the opportunity to be a big sister to 2 brothers, Julian who is sixteen years old and Antonio (Tony) who is ten years old, and to one sister Abigail (Abby) who just turned fifteen years old. I am a freshman here at West Texas A&M University majoring in Nursing. Here at WT I am in a program call C.A.M.P.. C.A.M.P stands for College Assistant Migrant Program. This program helps first generation/low income college students succeed through their first year of college. If it wasn't for this program, I probably wouldn't have attended college this year. Also through this program I met my four new best friends, Joselinne Yanez, Alejandra Gallo, Noe Valdez and Luis Hernandez. I could honestly say through this program I have learned to be successful and want to finish college with a degree no matter what situation you may be in. No one in my family had the push to attend college. My mom only finish the eight grade before dropping out of school to become a teen mom and my dad finish high school, but my grandparents never pushed him into attending college. Instead he found a job and worked to support his new family. The reason I chose to attend WT was because I was also apart of WT's Upward Bound program and they inspired me to attend a comfortable University like WT. I am really comfortable with the University and would never transfer to another University. I would make the sacrifice of driving up here quite often than transferring to Wayland Baptist University in Plainview. I love the classroom ratio and makes it feel like I was back in high school on the class sizes. I know it is going to be tough sometimes, but that is where C.A.M.P. comes into play. Nothing is ever to challenging for anybody. Just set your mind to it and you can achieve greatness!!!!
