I am...

Lovina and Bella
My name is Noemi Sorto and I'm twenty four years old. I'm a single mom of two beautiful girls, Lovina 7 and Bella 4. I'm also a full time student, which can be really difficult at times. This is my sixth semester here at SJCC.
I graduated from high school in 2005 and it took me five years to realize that it wasn't to late to go back to school. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to do it with my daughters. However, that was really an excuse because I'm very fortunate and grateful to have parents that support me 100% with my schooling.  I love school and my dream has always been to go to college and become someone in life. I want to make my parents proud, as well as my daughters. My goal is to graduate from SJCC and transfer to a four year college. I want to become a lawyer and focus on the Hispanic community.
In addition, I'm an outgoing and caring person.
I'm very excited for this semester!

  1. Thanks for your great post! I am very glad that your parents are supporting your efforts to go to college. I know, first hand, how difficult it is to stay focused on school with little ones at home. I had twin three-year old boys when I went back to graduate school, so I can relate. I can also tell you that you are going to look back on this time and feel so thankful that you put forth all of this effort. I was able to achieve my dreams after college and with more hard work and dedication...you will too!

    1. :) I am glad to hear that! Yes, it does feel good! To be honest, I'm kinda glad that I waited because many people start, but don't finish. I see it as this is my real chance to shine for my daughters.They are my biggest motivation! I want to set a good example for them, which I know that you want to as well. Keep pushing forward! Never give up :)
