Join any trade you like as an apparantice and learn up. As you become more and more skilled, dream dreams connected to your ambition. Take stock of your ever changing circumstance there will always be something you will find interesting and within your aptitude. Hold onto that and progress. Skill is waht this world needs.

There's not very many financially rewarding careers for people without a high school diploma. I think even for the Army you need at least a high school diploma in order to enlist.
You would have to find a job somewhere they would be willing to hire you over someone else who had at least graduated from high school. The Mexican school system and the American are different, so they wouldn't have the same gravity unless you went to a jr. college afterwards. Maybe ask someone in your family to keep an eye out for jobs in the states, but until then, you might want to keep your job in Mexico--it's better than what you would probably end up with in America without a basic education.

Well, you should find something that you are interested in. Not all things you are interested in will have a high paying amount. I know somethings that people have been interested have actually been low paying but they enjoyed there jobs. Some are high paying and they do not enjoy there jobs. I would go to fast food places etc. Or try talking to someone about the highschool. If they can prove you went there you could probably end up getting a better job then that.

Hmm. When you get back to the states, you can take a GED, a high school equivalence exam, that counts as the same as a diploma.
What I'd suggest is getting training and experience in microsoft office products. especially excel, access and powerpoint. EVERY office needs spreadsheets, databases and presentations done, it's not as hard as people think, and if you can show your quality of work at the interview, you don't need a college degree.

yeah get a GED, and then go to a college that you like, there are so many things you can be but it is limited, since you're a girl without proof of an education. That's crazy i can't belive thats happened to you, first i think you should go to your schooll and demand your papers, and if that dodn't work go to your teachers they'll be proof enough that you went to school. when you go in their don't be like "yes sir, yes sir" be like. "ey give me my dam papers now, i went to this school so hand em over."
