I'm Real Because...

I live the hard life, and I know how life is. I help others that are in need, even though I am also in need. The reason I help others is because I know I am going to be proud of myself in helping others. When it comes to the community, I give back to my church and library by teaching students how to read and write in both English and Vietnamese. I help my parents out so much because they benefited me by giving me the real life, the real world of working hard with a low amount of money. In my family, there are five people, my parents, my brother, my sister, and me. I am the oldest out of all of my siblings. To me, my brother is like my child, I help him out as much as I could because he is the youngest. My brother is only 8 years old and I help him with his homework, taking him to school and many other things because my parents are at a very old age, where they can barely help my brother. I help my neighbors with their homework and English also because they had barely came to the U.S.
