I've worked at a small computer store, fixing computers and etc. I've also managed a cleaners, not as small as you may think, with at least 13 employees working there right now. So it is like at least as large as your local Mcdonalds in terms of employees. I have to work to support my family, because we do indeed have a low income. This might have affected my grades, ecs and etc since I work on weekdays aswell.</p>
<p>I have an unusual sitituation in that, at the begining of 10th grade I had to return to China. My dad was in very bad shape in terms of his health. I stayed there for almost 7 months so I didn't return to finish 10th grade. I couldn't go to any school in China, since the international schools cost 10k+ a year and the local schools obviously aren't the best. So I returned this school year and retook my 10th grade year. That experience really helped me though, and helped me gain motivation to do much better in school. (BTW during my time there I taught kids english) But yeah I don't know how colleges will look at this whole mess..</p>
