The next morning, I had awoken full of enthusiasm to be able to celebrate my 18th birthday after school. My family always has something planned for me whether it is going out to have dinner, or just cooking an amazing dinner at home. As I had driven back home, I had a huge smile on my face from the excitement of being able to spend my day with my family and my boyfriend.

Throughout the span of my eighteen years of life, I have viewed the quandary that is my mixed race ethnicity with a fair amount of acceptance, but also with an underlying feeling of insecurity.
