The Day After

deceased loved ones on a holiday called Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. Part of the celebration is partaking in observing the annual migrations of the monarch butterfly, as they are said to be the souls of the deceased revisiting the earth because they always mysteriously appear on the same day every year, the Day of the Dead (“Dia de los Muertos”).

make a difference. Come Election Day, I flipped on CNN and vehemently watched the poll statistics pour in, only to find myself utterly shocked as Trump’s votes skyrocketed and Clinton’s stagnated. Finally calling it quits at 1:45a.m., I, like many Americans, woke up the next day with a heavy heart. Having grown up in south Florida and going to college in Boston, I have always been surrounded by progressive people, most of whom are anti-Trump. So, the day after the election when my Facebook…

not just traveling to another place, but to an entirely different country. I had to question, “How was he going to get back to Sesame Street?” I patiently wait in front of the television for Big Bird to appear in China. It was the most fulfilling day of my entire 48 months of living. To see how he interacted with the children from another country really peaked my interest. That is when it struck me; I want to be a teacher. Not just any teacher, I wanted to go to China with Big Bird and…
