The person who lives in this room is a teenager who lives in New York City. He has so much going on in his life that it is even hard to write about. His parents came to the United States from Puerto Rico in 1980’s. He’s a first generation American who was born and raised in New York City. Being the only child in his family wasn’t the stress-free thing. He was basically growing up alone. He always wished that he had siblings, because if he did, his parents wouldn’t give him as much attention and wouldn’t ask so many questions. When his parents go to work he goes to play around with his friends on the block. Even though he has lived on the same block his whole life, he knows his way around the city and likes to go for walks.

He wants to read all the books that were written about Bruce Lee to find out more about him, but simply doesn’t have enough time. He has to study really hard in order to get a perfect score in every class, which is his goal for college. He really wants to make his mother proud and show her that they didn’t move to the United States for no
