in with the latest clothes or accessories impersonating their favorite celebrities while they made fun of a minority such as myself.

Ever since then, I have been always looking for shoes that fit into certain categories that I like.

Although that type of lifestyle does exist in the Middle East, I rarely saw it. In the Middle East, I stayed in Amman, Jordan. When I first arrived to my grandmother’s area I noticed every woman had their body and hair covered. The men wore sandals with jeans and regular t-shirts and no one drove nice cars.…

Living in America, you tend to pick up things that might be uncommon to you because of where you come from. At the time that you can't even afford the things that you wanted. Growing up in the Philippines, my family struggled with financial issues, most of the things that I had were hand-me-downs. Living that kind of life taught me to not be too wasteful and don't throw it out if it's not completely empty. When my family arrived in the United States I was eight years old and was also very…

Student athletes are working non-stop day in and day out to not only meet academic standards but to maintain their athletic scholarship.
