The last of my high school career was spent at Plant City high school, in the small town of Plant City, Florida. Nothing much has happened in the small Floridain town except the annual strawberry festival. The only activities one can do involves driving to Lakeland or Brandon.

The dark bland hallways robbed of…

Looking at the greenhouse from afar, I could see a police officer on the inside sealing an envelope with some cash. I knew exactly what he's doing, and it took every inch of me cannot pounce out of my dog house and stop the exchange. But with my morale low, from the rest of my puppies being sold, and my body aching, I slowly walked over and peered through the window.

At the time, I barely knew how to speak english, I was literally friendless, I had no clue to how things worked, and I was utterly shocked by the different…

It is important to have a nice campus…
