When Uncle Jim and I first met, for the first time after my mom getting re-married, he looked at me and my stepfather and started to rap to “Gangster’s Paradise.” At that moment, I knew that Uncle Jim would leave me with joyous memories. No matter what obstacles were put in his way, he was […]
Tortilla: God is the tortilla of my life. Call Him whatever you want – Savior, Shepherd, Father – I’ll just stick with tortilla. He’s the thin skin that protects me and holds me. If I screw up, I know that my tortilla will be there for me, no matter what. Rice: You can reach me […]
I like reading The Economist and watching “I love the 80s.” I like tennis, Fazoli’s breadsticks and writing assignments. I value honesty, commitment, scholarship and kindness. These are hard and true facts, but there is a lot I do not know about myself. I don’t know how I feel about the death penalty, I have […]

It was my first Halloween in high school and I vividly recall that almost everyone was dressed up in wild and wacky costumes.

I’m an 18 12 months outdated senior from Sedan Excessive Faculty. My […]
My mom and I were in the kitchen cooking dinner. As usual, I was standing on a little metal cow print stool I needed in order to reach the counter. Growing up, enchiladas were my favorite thing to make. My mom and I had a special way of preparing them and it became “our thing” […]
My room is a sedimentary rock. The encompassing high-paced, high-stress atmosphere gives the strain essential to compress every day into a brand new layer of clothes: Monday’s T-shirt lies beneath Tuesday’s fuzzy socks, Wednesday’s denims, Thursday’s outsized sweater, and Friday’s solar costume. Scattered beside the style time-capsule are colourful scraps of development paper from Saturday’s […]
