Lunch break only came too soon. It was a beautiful day outside, much like the days we’ve been having. In the sweltering midday heat, we had nothing to do. My mom and dad were both at work, which left me with my then sixteen year old sister, and ten year old brother. I was only six at the time. At that time, I wouldn’t say we were rich, but we were living pretty comfortably. The air conditioning in our house blew a cool breeze and we sat around, doing absolutely nothing, lying on the couches in…

internet was. I slept through keyboarding thinking computers were for rich people, so I didn’t know how to type. I asked my friends at school what to do, most thought I was an idiot. I knew how to use things like Microsoft Office, and how to navigate the school’s website, but I didn’t know why people could ever find that fun. I felt ripped off getting a laptop as my only Christmas and birthday present for that year. I fought with my Dad for almost a year to get the internet, we were not well…

It was two weeks before Mom and Dad died, we had come to celebrate the new car. As I was reminiscing, my nightmare sped through my head in a split second, but it still managed to scare me enough to scream in a crowded restaurant. My brothers and Mary leaped out of their seats, and Soda hugged me. I found it amazing, how Darry and Soda seemed to know, I guess they were thinking about our last time here too. Maybe we’re even closer than I thought. “Poe-” That was Mary’s pet name for me, she…

years old, I remember my dad wearing a culinary hat and apron. He used to cook, clean, and helping me do my homework while my mom was at work. During that time, he took time from work because my mom was promoted in her job and she had to work for couple weeks the evening shift. Having parents devoted to their work the same way that they are devoted to their family can be challenging. However, my parents always say, "If God gives you lemons then you make lemonade." My dad loves his job but, at…

Surname and Migration Experience My surname is Hernandez, which is a "distinguished Spanish surname…a proud sign of rich and ancient heritage”(2). While conducting research I also found out that my “name is derived from the Spanish elements ‘ 'faro" meaning “journey” and “nano”, meaning “brave”(2). Interesting enough the name Hernandez was first “found in Castile, where the name originated in Visigothic times” and “its cognates is due to King Ferdinand III of Castile and Leon (1198-1252)”…

isn’t a bear at all! It is... my DAD! Oh I am furious! He is with his friend, on the ground laughing their heads off. They had found a spot right next to the trail where young trees could hide them and easily allow them to jump out and terrify us all! I don’t know how to react, except cry even harder! How can he have done this to an eight year old?? While on the ground, still crying in terror of what just happened, I hear someone approach me. “Hey honey,” my dad whispers softly. “I’m sorry. I…

little quirky, follows all the new pop culture arising during the 1908s. Because of his love of pop culture, he documents his life by using his VHS camcorder and recording several aspects of his life. Adam lives with his grandpa (Pop), Mom (Beverly), Dad (Murray), Sister (Erica), and Brother (Barry). Because it occurs during the 1980’s, there are several references from this decade such as movies, pop culture, and the language that was popular…

There was a lot of gangs where she grew up, and she lived in a poor area. “I imagine that because of religious suppression,” she often says. In her home town, there was pretty big disparity between the rich and poor. I feel like there was a lot of rebellious youth. There was mostly white people with some hispanic, and a lack of ethnic diversity. I think because of this the people were close minded and naive to the world that was different to their norm…

For instance, “Shooting Dad”. In “Shooting Dad”, the narrator decides she doesn’t like guns at six years old. Her dad is a gunsmith, so they would always end up arguing. She believed for most of her life, that they were two completely different people. They disagree on almost everything, like politics in hobbies. Then one day, she realizes maybe they aren’t so different after all. Since her dad likes guns, she thought that he was very uncreative and not artistic…
