Focus of Study/axe de l'étude/foco de estudio

Just finished my Tech Degree, EHR specialist, but I have been majoring in FILM what seems like forever. Don't have the funds to finish yet but I won't give up until I have my B.A in film.

What languages do you speak?

fluent Spanish (born in Mexico), fluent English live in the U.S

What did you film on 12.12.12?

Honestly, I haven't really decided yet. My mind is playing with several ideas and I don't know if I should include one or all. I feel like focusing on my parents' life. They are currently divorced, so it will be sort of a challenge but who doesn't love challenges? They risked everything to bring my siblings and I to this country, just so we can have a better life. Another thought is filming my situation. Being raised in the country is the best thing that could have happened to me, but to many I am not an American. On paper I legally don't belong here. I am what many call "an illegal Alien". I was brought to the U.S at age 2 and know no other home besides the one I live in. I want to document what I have in this world (a beautiful life in California) and document what I don't have (driver license, a social, a proper job, respect, etc). Currently the topic of the Dream Act is a big in the United States. I could really benefit from this Act if it were ever to be implemented here and I want to demonstrate to many why it is important for us Dreamers.
