SunnyDale, That‘s where I grew up. It was the place where if you lived there people expected nothing good to come out of you. Around the age of 6 my mother moved us to South San Francisco due to the violence that occurred, but that didn’t change the labels. People would always comment about my family living in SunnyDale how my uncle sold dope, my aunt always throwing the wildest parties. I didn’t want to be seen as some kid who’s from the “Ghetto” growing up to become nothing in life. I will be the first child/ grandchild to attend a four year University or State. I vowed to prove everyone wrong that I wasn’t just a label in society. My family has moved around from the Tenderloin to the Mission and SunnyDale. People view all these places
