I don’t know who I am just yet because I feel that I am still trying to figure it out. I do know though that I am here for a purpose and that I am seeking for that purpose. I have learned to be the person that I am so far because of my family and my religion as well.
I was born in Los Angeles, California on April 7, 1989. I was raised in Huntington Park and have lived there since I was born. My parents are from El Salvador and so is my entire family. I am Catholic because my parents raised me as a Catholic. I am the eldest of the three children my parents conceived. I was raised by my grandmother because my parents had to work and I needed a babysitter. I have been taught that family is the best thing that you could have in your life and we should always support each other no matter what your relationship with them is.
I feel though that sometimes I want to get away from my family because they just put too much pressure on all of my cousins and me because they want us to better ourselves. I feel that I need to be perfect in order to satisfy my family’s expectations. It sometimes makes me think what if I would have said no to college would they have really been upset. When I look at the comments my family sometimes makes I just don’t bother trying to figure it out.
One experience that I remember is when I entered high school and I got a couple of B’s my dad was not mad but instead of saying good job he said next time do better. He also said that instead of having B’s he wanted to see only A’s on my report card. This brings me to even feel more pressure on myself for having to always get good grades and never get grades less than a B in any of my classes. I feel that I have to be perfect and never show my flaws or weaknesses.
Another thing that I feel I would want to get out of is being able to pick my own Religion. I don’t mind the religion that I have right now but I feel that I always have to do what my parents want me to do. This brings me to not being able to do what I want to do because they are always making me do what they want me to do. I am honestly not a bad person at all and have never shown a sign of weakness. Instead I am always showing that I am a strong person so that my family will be proud of me and see that I could do what to them is in the norm.
A story that I have about this is that my family believes that we should not have any relationship until we have graduated from college because then we will be someone in life. They always tell us girls that men are not important in our life right now and that the only thing we should focus on is going to school and getting good grades. They say that if we were to have a relationship we would not focus on our school work and would pay more attention to our boyfriend. So my family plays a big role in the person that I am today.
I feel that I am a person who is obedient and would never disrespect any person who I would consider to be an elder. I would also have to follow some of the rules that have been taught to me by my family. This would lead me to having to show that I am perfect when in fact I sometimes wish that I could get out of the world that I am in right

Trying to Be like Everyone Else
In reading the essays I felt that they each had something important to say that really got me thinking. The essay though that I felt had the most importance to me was "On Being Crippled" by Nancy Mairs. In this essay I felt that what was important was that even though we have some kind of sickness we can still live a normal life. This idea is explained by the author when she describes how she still cooks, washes her clothes, and works.
I feel that this is important for me because I have known people that once they find out that they are sick they lose all hope. I know that all the people act differently toward how they feel, but some have it worse than others. I remember when my aunt found out that she had cancer in her liver and all she felt was depression. She was never the same person again and was always wanting to be lonesome. she also didn't want to eat meat or pasta because she said she was fed up with it.
I now realize that what she was feeling none of us could ever have felt and that we sometimes can't fight our disease. This is why i think that her having a positive attitude is important to me because you cannot just give up. i think that sometimes we need to accept and not be questioning God about why he did this to us.
the narrator gives a good point about still living her normal life. She explains that she does it because of her family and I find that it is a good reason. sometimes we make sacrifices so that our family won't suffer with us. I believe that living a normal life can probably help the sick person as well because they will know that their family supports them.
Living a normal life is important for me because if I had a moment like this then I would do the same. I would live a normal life because in the end we all die.

Adversaries
I think that as we grow up we change the way we are and how we feel. We also change depending n the people we grow up with. Sometimes it affects us in ways that we might not notice. I feel that in reading the story “Adversaries” from The Mee Street Chronicles a book by Frankie Lennon I have noticed a change in the narrator. She has changed a lot because of the people she is growing up with.
The narrator is changing at a really young age because of the way she has been treated by her aunt. I find that she had to change and grow because someone pushed her towards it. I think that it is hard when you have so much pressure put onto you that you feel like there is a point when you just say, “Stop!”
In the story one thing that I noticed that she grew up in was beginning the quest for individuality and identity. I felt this was apparent in a passage where she stands up to her aunt and doesn’t let her whip her. The passage is on page 34 of the book and here is some of it, “No! I shouted. I am not gonna let you whip me!”
I think that even though you are small if someone provokes you then you are going to snap. This has also got me thinking that sometimes people do things that later in life they regret. The narrator will probably never regret it because she felt that she had to do what she did.
Our life experiences help us to grow in life. We change to help ourselves by knowing that we have been able to stand up for ourselves. I think that we have to change in order to find our sense of identity because this is what also helps us to face the problems that we go through in life.

Many Forms of English
Growing up with Spanish being my first language, speaking English seemed a little hard at first. My parents spoke both Spanish and English to me. While my grandmother who took care of me only spoke Spanish to me. I feel that as I grew up, my English developed a little better and was able to speak it well. I have noticed that I speak a variation of English forms. For instance with my parents I speak a different way then I do with my friends and also at school. the different Englishes I use have made me who I am today.
My Parents were the first ones to speak English to me as well as other family members of mine. With them I speak Spanglish or in other words Spanish and English at the same time. I also speak to them an English that I can't describe because it is more of the way that I speak with my friends. For example with my mom I talk like this, "Hey mom como estas?" and with my dad its more like "What up yo." since my parents are young I feel that i speak to them as i do with my friends.
When I am with my friends though I feel I use cursing, while with my parents I don't. I am able just to express myself my friends because I know they get me. When I am mad that's when I use cursing and my friends know something is wrong with me. Because these are the people I trust with my problems that is why I talk to them the way I do. For example with my friends I say things like, "Hey what you been up to", or "For real." I feel that is the way i really get through to them.
I remember one day when I was so upset because my parents did something that just made me feel really bad. I called one of my friends named Shanti and I said to her, " Hey what you doing cause I freakin need your help" and then she said, "What happened?" I told her, "My freakin parents are killing me because they just wont freakin stop fighting." She said to me, "it's alright don't worry just ignore them cause my parents do the same thing sometimes." I felt that when she told me this that I was going to be okay because she understood my situation. These are the kind of things that help me and the English I use lets me communicate with my friends.
When I ma at school I feel that I need to impress my professors because like people say, "First Impressions Count." So I try so hard not to use words that I normally would with my parents or my friends. I always try to use proper words and not slang words. I sometimes even feel that if I don't use proper words, people around me are also going to make fun of me. I am always making sure that I don't sound dumb when speaking in front of my class or just when I respond to a question. Fro example I speak like this, "Well I believe that this is not true because." I find that speaking like this wont let me embarrass myself.
The Englishes I speak have helped me in life in all ways. I feel that by allowing myself to do this I can communicate with all the people in my life. English is very important for me and I feel that having learned this language has helped me a lot. I am glad that I use different English forms.

Being Afraid
In reading, the story of “No Escape” from The Mee Street Chronicles, which was written by Frankie Lennon the narrator, finds herself in a situation. The narrator is frightened and does not really know what to do. I feel that what I thought of the little girl was that she was scared and had a very good imagination. The two characters traits that she demonstrates are confused and determination. I feel that we all have times like this one in, which we feel that we need to get out and look for help or just deal with it. Sometimes we just feel that we have to do things to get over our fears and that helps a lot.
In the story I felt that the little girl was just making a story up which really was interesting. As I kept reading, I noticed how the little girl was scared and had no way out of her situation. She really did not know what to do or who to look for since she could not find anyone she was looking for. I think that it really caught my attention because she was very descriptive and I could really see all of this happening to her. I also thought that the little girl was just not really opening her eyes to see that none of that was happening. I think that the narrator really gave enough information for me to want to be there with her and help her to escape that situation.
I thought that two character traits that the narrator had were that she was confused and determined as well. I felt that she was confused because she did not know what to do and where to go to look for help. She also had no clue why all of this was happening to her and what she could do to make it stop. Another thing that makes me feel this is because she really does not know whom is the person talking to her. I felt that she was determined because even though she was frightened she still found ways to a way out of her situation. She was willing to risk her life and not worry about what was going to happen next. The only thing narrator wanted to do was find her parents and she did all kinds of things for that. I find that she was really showing her determination in doing that.
I feel that there was times were I too felt that I was afraid and did not have the strength at the time to face it. I feel that with the story my situation rather relates because I was also afraid. One of the many situations that I could not face was moving from a public school to a catholic school. I felt this way because I really was not like all these kids at my new school. I was different and going from a school were I had known these people from like kindergarten to having to make new friends because I was going to a different school now.
I was about twelve years old when I had finished sixth grade and was going to move into junior high. My parents decided that I needed to get away from my old friends and move to a new school. I was mad because I had friends who where with me since kindergarten and now we were going to have to say good-bye forever. I was going to go to a place that I had never seen before and it was not familiar to me at all.
As I walked into the school, I felt like everybody was looking at me. It was the first day of school and I did not recognize any faces at all. I felt that I could was look around to see of anybody would even come up to me to say a word. I walked up to the school principal and she talked to me for a while until finally some girls came over. They introduced themselves and I made new friends.
I think that we all have bad situations in our life that we have to face. It is a shame that we cannot always get over our fears, as we would want. In the story, I learned that we sometimes have to go for things and face than just walk away. We should all think this way and I am glad that I read this because I have been able to learn from it.

Painful and Pleasuarble Memories
Things can be both painful and pleasurable at the same time. They help us in two different ways because we learn from them and we also see how we can use them for our convenience. One thing that really was both painful and pleasurable was when I was put in an English only class.
I was always in ESL, which was a program for kids who were thought to only be able to speak Spanish and no English. I think that when I was put in this I was really happy. I felt that I did not want to be put to the side anymore with the other kids who spoke a lot of Spanish like I did. I was finally able to share with all my classmates what they were being taught. I remember that even my parents complained to the school principal so that they could put my in a class with children my age who only spoke English. Another thing that I was able to experience with this was that now I could learn to speak more English than what I could.
I remember that my dad was the one who took the initiative to speak to my teacher and ask her to put me in an English only class. The day of my parent-teacher conference was when he talked to my second grade teacher. I could still remember sitting next to him and as they were speaking of how well I was doing he said," I do want to talk about something that has to do with my daughter's learning skills". It was surprising for me because I felt that he finally said something so that I could be a part of my classmates. He then said to my teacher and it is something that I never forget because he said it to another one of my siblings teachers. This is what it was, "I want my daughter to be in an English only class because if I wanted her to learn Spanish then I would teach it to her at home". M teacher understood and said that she would try to start by giving me homework in English. Then he said," I send her to school to learn English because Spanish is taught at home." This was the start of a new future for me which was to start doing everything in English.
Speaking English was something also painful because I felt that my other classmates put me down. They did not call me names, but they did look at me funny because I now was at their same level. I was not at their level before so even though I really had no accent, I did do something that was not expected of me before. I believe that what I felt was anger because it was not fair that they did not like me for being able to share with them what I wanted to be able to share with them.
One thing that I remember I would do now that I was in English only class was read out loud to the class. I think that because this was not expected of us Spanish speaking kids the other kids did look at us funny. When I read out loud my teacher encouraged me to really keep reading because she liked when I participated. Also now instead of separating us from the English only kids, now they had to join us in our circle and spent more time with us. I know that this bothered them because they always thought that they were superior to us.
Sometimes we are able to experience new things but we don’t always receive the rewards that we would like from the people around us. I think that I was able to grow as a person with this experience because I was able to understand that all the people that we consider our friends really are not. I not only learned to speak a more fluent English, but I also learned to be able to choose whom my friends really were and know if I could trust them or not.

"Fighting For What You Believe In"
I felt that the Malcolm X piece was a really good story. It helps to really understand his life and why he fought for his rights. His story showed me that when you believe in yourself and what you want to accomplish that it is the best feeling ever. It has also showed me that we should never give up and always fight for what we believe in. Also that learning and reading are the most important things in life that will make you the person you want to become. With these things you are able to really be a somebody. I feel that this story has inspired me to want to read because I know that it will help me through out life. I also feel that sometimes we ourselves need to beleive that our hard work will end up being something pleasureable in life. Also that our dreams are the most important things to look forward to and ignore the negativity of others around you. I feel that this all gets combined to help with our development in life.

Today I Feel...
Today I feel like I have to look at everything I need to do for the week and am worried. I really feel stressed out and it is only the third week of my second semester. I really am happy that it has stopped raining because even though I like the cold weather, I just don’t like the fact that it rains and my dad who is a truck driver is out there driving in such a dangerous weather. I am so tired and I know that I need to sleep more but sometimes I just can’t go to sleep early. I really feel like I am alone in what I feel and I need help but am afraid to get it. In me there is something that is telling me that I need to let out what I feel and talk to the people that are hurting me in a painful way.
I feel that today is a brand new day and that hopefully I could be able to just finish all of my homework and go to sleep early. I am happy that I am going home earlier than usual because one of my classes was canceled. I also feel sad because the only reason why I am going home early is because one of my professors is sick and I just hope that she gets better. I feel hungry right now and even though I am in class I really can’t wait until my class is over so that I can go and eat before my next class.
I am also happy because I know what my speech is going to be about and even though I don’t like speaking in front of people I feel like I have to get over it and work hard on what I am going to talk about. Today I just am happy with what I have and though there are days were I want to get out of my world, it has just come to my attention that I just have to live with it. I might not like it, but I really have to deal with it.
I also feel that I am happy that my eye looks better because I was getting tired of looking as if though I had gotten into a fight. I feel that I need to get into a diet plan because I want to feel healthy. I really don’t feel like I know enough about the candidates for the primary elections and I really need to learn more about them. I feel like my vote will make a difference and that is why I am going to the talks about who the best candidate is and listen to the debates between the candidates.

My Holidays
Holidays are days that I always look forward to because they allow for my family to at least spend some of their time together. The past two holidays I felt were the best ones of all because they helped me to realize why they really please me the most. Two things that pleased me during the holidays were that my family really bonded together and that I also received an unexpected present from my parents for Christmas.
I was very pleased to see my family spending time together because this only happens on special occasions and sometimes not all of my family is present. My family has a special tradition for Christmas Eve that is really fun and even allows us to connect our feeling of happiness with one another. The tradition we have of Santa Claus' existence when coming to our house and giving us presents really is a lot of fun. My uncle has been dressing up as Santa Claus for years because he knows the children are not afraid and believe that Santa really does exist and that they could ask him for things that they would like. This tradition begins at midnight when my uncle comes in and all the kids get really happy because they all want to be his helpers. He passes out the presents that we have bought for each other and once or twice he will stop to dance with the kids because it also always seems as if we had a party going on. We have so much fun and it really brings my family together.
Even though it sounds selfish to say that I was pleased in receiving and unexpected present from my parents is because I really did not ask for anything. The only thing that really makes me happy is seeing my brother and sister receive their presents that they think are from Santa Claus. I know that sometimes my parents don’t have the money to give me everything that I would like so that is why I really appreciated their gift to me. It was something that really made me happy because it was the IPOD Nano.
My end of the year holidays were the best and I really enjoyed them a lot. I wish that we had a holiday all the time because that is the only way that my family can come together and really spend as much time as we can catching up with everything that we have missed in each others’ lives. I hope that from now on we can come together more often and really become a united family.
I was very pleased to see my family spending time together because this only happens on special occasions and sometimes not all of my family is present. My family has a special tradition for Christmas Eve that is really fun and even allows us to connect our feeling of happiness with one another. The tradition we have of Santa Claus' existence when coming to our house and giving us presents really is a lot of fun. My uncle has been dressing up as Santa Claus for years because he knows the children are not afraid and believe that Santa really does exist and that they could ask him for things that they would like. This tradition begins at midnight when my uncle comes in and all the kids get really happy because they all want to be his helpers. He passes out the presents that we have bought for each other and once or twice he will stop to dance with the kids because it also always seems as if we had a party going on. We have so much fun and it really brings my family together.
Even though it sounds selfish to say that I was pleased in receiving and unexpected present from my parents is because I really did not ask for anything. The only thing that really makes me happy is seeing my brother and sister receive their presents that they think are from Santa Claus.
