I began to get more involved on campus. My roommate and I are in the process of joining an organization. So far we are getting to meet new people and helping out in the different events on campus. Hopefully this means that the rest of my time in college is going to be different and I am actually going to make friends and be more social. I have to work on being more outing. But this better not distract me from my studies. Of course I would not let it the main thing I am here for is to study.
I am…
Mara,
Hear my cry,
As I break inside,
I am wild,
Unconfined,
Cower as you hear my roar,
I am strong,
An unfailing wall in the battle,
Fear me,
As I stand tall,
I am courageous,
As I spit fear in the face,
Don’t back down,
Face the giants with me.
I am humble,
Let me be the…
I recently learned that in Tuscon (Arizona) public schools have not only banned Chicano studies classes but books written by Chicano and Native American Authors. They think that this will help students become more united instead of racially separated. I do not think it will end up helping them instead it could create more diversity among the students because the students are going to question why are they only being thought from one perspective and one history and from different perspectives or their own history. This country is supposed to be the land of the free where there is no racism and everyone is accepted EQUALLY. Banning books is not going to help different races get along.
I’m almost done with college I have one more year to go hopefully. But I am scared because I don’t know what is next. I have recently started having doubts about the career I want to pursue. I am studying to be a teacher but with everyone telling me that is not a good career because they do not earn a lot I am confused. Also I moved away from home in order to experience what is out there. But so far I do not have friends I could hang out with here. I do have co-workers and my roommate but I am manly alone here. It sucks. I guess it is my fault for being so shy and quiet but I can’t change that about myself or I do not know how. On a different note I will be 21 this year :) hopefully I have time to go out more with my friends back home.
Criminal Minds my favorite show. My favorite character is Dr. Spencer Reid I just love him. Hopefully one day I get to meet the wonderful cast or only Dr. Reid would be fine :)
which is better?
I loved arizona tea until I decided to try the peace tea and now I prefer peace tea. The only bad thing is that I’ve only seen them in some liquor stores not in big stores like 7/11 I guess there not as well known as or as popular as arizona tea hmm…
