Hey, my name is Alyza Rodriguez. I am 14 years old in the 9th grade. I am currently attending Sweetwater High and so far, I am really enjoying it here.

Lets start off by saying that my family means the world to me. Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today. They have done so much for me and I am so greatful to have them as a part of my life.  My family consists of my mom, which is my bestfriend too c: My dad, without him, I wouldn't know half of the things I know today. My sister, oh my what can I say about her. She's like my otherhalf. Without her, I wouldn't function properly. Shes the one I look up to. Last but definitely not least, my brother.  We may fight like 95% of the time but hey, I love him. All in all, my family is amazing and I love them to death.

  When I graduate highschool I am hoping to attend NYU. I would really like to attend NYU because it is known to be one of the top universities that offer a wide range in the medical field. My goal is to become either a pediatrician or and OB/GYN. I really enjoy being around kids and that is why I want to go towards that field.  Knowing that I have to continue school for about 8-10 more years is a little overwhelming, but I am willing to surpass any challenge that comes my way.  Patience, hard work, and dedication obviously pays off in the end. I know what I want to become, therefore I will do anything in my power to achieve it.
