The Best Day of My Life
I would like to tell you about the best thing that has happened to me, the day I found out I was pregnant and having a boy! It was such a beautiful day outside, the sun was just starting to rise, the birds were chirping away and eating from the yellow bird feeder that hung from our giant oak tree in our back yard. I went to the doctor that day, because I had been having some problems. I was exhausted and nauseated all the time, and I just didn’t feel normal. And I never knew that day would change my whole life.
I arrived at the doctor’s office around 11:15am. The nurse called my name and I followed her down the hallway to room number12. I sat down, and the nurse told me the doctor would be in to see me shortly. The doctor walked in and I explained to him everything that was going on with me. He sat there very quietly and patiently with a strange look on his face as if he knew exactly what was going on. When I was done speaking, he looked at me and asked if there were any way I could be pregnant. I thought to myself arduously and I said, “ Well maybe, but surely not.” I explained to the doctor that I was on birth control, and I thought it was difficult to get pregnant. The doctor assured me that yes, anyone on birth control can become pregnant. The doctor asked me to wait in the room and told me he wanted to run some test, and that he would be back to see me shortly. So there I sat, in the room waiting and waiting. A nurse walked in and explained the process of urinating in a cup, as if I didn’t know how to. I went into the bathroom, and I can still smell the lavender and passion fruit berries smell mixed together and the green and yellow floral print on the walls. I urinated into the small plastic cup with a bright orange lid.. I can still see my name in big bold letters with the words pregnancy test right next to it. I proceeded back to my room and waited, for what felt like an eternity. The anticipation was killing me. The door opened and

This day gave me a feeling of being part of a whole family instead of being the stepchild, not that my mother treated me like I was a stepchild. Not that it changed my day to day life, however, it changed how I looked at a number of things. My lawer and parents allowed me to pick they day I was adopted.

    Lost Angels: Skid Row Is My Home is an investigative documentary that gives us the untold story of the homeless and disadvantaged living on Skid Row. Skid Row is a name given to fifty blocks radius in Downtown Los Angeles whose residents tends to have a lower income or are homeless. Many people view the homeless as being dirty, poor and even lazy; it is very rare that we wonder why how they came to be in such a predicament. For many on Skid Row their battles are mental illness and grave poverty. The documentary introduces us to eight different but very similar individuals living on Skid Row; they tell us their very different stories and then explain their similar experiences living on Skid Row. We meet a transgender Caucasian male, an African- American mother of three, an old Caucasian female and her African American “fiancé”, they all suffer from mental illness in one form or the other and there is even an ex Olympian who battled through substance abuse. The only difference between these people and us are certain circumstances and situations. The film just sheds light and gives understanding to the fact that yes they are homeless, yes they lie in the street but they are people just like me and you. Watching this film had me literally questioning why we are socialized to believe being homeless is demeaning and a social taboo.…

It was a long drive for a little baby like her at the time she was only two years old. Early that morning my parents took us to the bus station.The bus was leaving at 6 a.m. in the morning to get to Austin, TX at midnight. My daughter and I felt it was the longest drive ever as the bus was very full and kept stopping. Finally, we arrived to Austin at midnight. I had to walk around for some time until I found a cab to take us to the hotel. I was scared and nervous. I was all alone with my daughter in a city we didn't know. We arrived to the hotel and finally felt safe and some peace. As soon as we walked in the room, I called my family and let them know we were good.…

    It was a beautiful August day. The sun was extra bright, probly because I had been in a hospital room for the past three days, and there was a warm breeze that made the ride home great. When we pulled up in front of the house the street was lined with cars. I could hear music playing and the smell of BBQ. There were so many familiar faces. My aunts and uncles, cousins, friends. I could see a Welcome Home banner over the garage and I immediately began smiling. This was all for my baby! I was so shocked. As I stepped out of the car everyone began to run over. There were hugs and “congratulations” coming from every direction. This was the best day of my…
