    Moving here from North Carolina when I was four changed my life completely, I was away from my family who I lived with my whole life, thrown into a school with a bunch of kids who lived here since they were born and told to “make friends.” This changed the next 13 years of my life to something I can never picture not having.

    When constructing a friendship, one places many different building blocks for the friendship to function at its full potential. Building a friendship looks much like constructing a castle in the way that each block is important for the design to turn out perfectly. Sturdy building blocks carefully layered over time construct a healthy and vibrant friendship. If ignored, these building blocks will cause a compromised foundation of friendship. Although there are many important elements involved in building a strong friendship, the three I believe that one cannot do without include trust, loyalty, and common interests.…

As I’ve gotten older I have realized that I was actually ahead of the class by being bilingual. I learned more than they did by the the end of my second grade year.…
