“Come on in!”, exclaimed my dad, ushering Arshia and Avinash into my home, safe from the danger of obtaining hypothermia in the freezing cold winds that blasted every few seconds and from the softly-falling, dunk-in-your-face huge raindrops in Texas. It was February 17, 2017, the day before the competition. We, meaning my brother, Arshia, Avinash, my dad(he was the team manager), and I, were going to paint our scene sets and put some finishing touches on our wonderful mechanism today. We’re…

Anyone that knows me will tell you that fall is my favorite season. From the vibrant fall colors, to just sitting around a crackling fire with family and friends. I love so much about the fall season. When the air gets cool and crisp, I just cannot help thinking about Halloween and all things frightening. My favorite place is Six Flags, it is a yearly necessity, for lasting memories, great food, and Fright Fest. As far back as I can remember, my family and I have been going to Six Flags. It…

She taught me to read and write because she knew I was going to grow up and be successful one day. It breaks me that I had to leave her to escape. I am a grown man…
