`Good morning,good morning! It’s new day,a fresh start,maybe it’s the luckiest day of your life ! Rise and ..” my radio tried to wake me up with such a motivational morning speech,that i had to turn it off .
’Cool,another day,another pain in my ass. .Ugh.’ i said turning on my back,staring at the ceiling.
I got off my bed,after rubbing my eyes and yawning for like 5 times. I hate morings,i’m not a morning person and you definetly don’t wanna piss me off when i just woke up. I took a quick look in the mirror and i was,like always,looking terrible. My blonde hair looked like some squirrels played with it all night long,my

``nothing`` i lied again. Why do i have to start this week like this : I lie,i’m mad and i’m possibly hurting my friends..
``don’t lie. I know you too well``
``i’m okay.it’s just my mom,you know..``
He looked at me worried,and offered me his hand. I took it and he squeezed it.
``I’m here for you,okay?`` he whisperd.
I gave him a ’thank you’ smile,then i turned around to see what’s happening around us. Nobody was paying attention,just two girls in the front seats. They were the pure definition of ’nerds’ . I was doing pretty well in school,but i wasn’t that passionated like them.

Okay,so another day passed by and now i’m on my way home. Mia and Kyle stayed for some extra classes and i had to go home all by myself. It’s okay,i got my iPod with me ,so i’m gonna make everything around me look like a music video.At this point,i’m not so original i can say..

    Growing up I excelled in every educational aspect of school. However the stereotype for someone of my skin color did not allow for me to be both Mexican and smart. My Hispanic peers began to exclude me; the most common way they did that was by taking away my identity as a Mexican. I heard “Diego you white” an uncountable number of times throughout my schooling. I noticed that my grades and vocabulary would trigger that comment so I began to change the way I acted in order to fit in. It was not until recently that I realized the fault in changing and found a peaceful merge between the two speech communities.…

    My father is a Sicilian combat veteran from Brooklyn and my mother is an immigrant from El Salvador. The disparity of their backgrounds is immeasurable, but their lives have impacted me greatly. They divorced when I was 3, but their relationship is unbelievably strong. I lived in a diverse environment, speaking different languages and existing in polar opposite lifestyles. The dichotomy molded me and influenced my character, perspective and state of being. Under my father’s roof, I endured a military-style upbringing-but the love was apparent. I was encouraged to play sports and excel in my academics. I am competitive in nature, and exceeding was always my aspiration. However certain events have caused me to falter, but I now understand that the duty of each human is to delegate their time for the advancement of the species and if no one holds you responsible, it is imperative that you do so.…

    The day started off as any normal day. My mother woke me up and said “we must go.” Her voice sounded very urgent for what I thought was just a trip to the grocery store. My mom laid my outfit on my bed and packed by book bag; that’s when I figured out that I was starting school. I wasn’t entirely oblivious to the fact that I was going to familiarize myself with a completely different environment, but I just thought I had a little more time to prepare. Well, it turns out that I was wrong. You see, I wasn’t your average pre-schooler who was nervous about making friends. I was the immigrant child who had never spoken a word of English.…

    When we’re kids, we don’t have a single worry in the world. Our priorities are going to school and getting along with the rest of the kids on the playground. We don’t have to worry about taxes, or being judged (for the most part), paying bills, etc. So when do we reach the point where the real world comes in and kicks us in the behind? When do we come to realize who we really are and what our position is in this world? For me, the real world introduced itself at a very young age. And unfortunately I didn’t really understand what was going on at the moment. But for my parents, the situation was quite clear. I became a victim of bullying and racist comments.…
