To start off the day I had to go clean up at the fairgrounds. When people show an animal in the fair that is also sold everyone has to get up super early to “do your duty”. The only reason the kids have to do this is so they can get their check. It’s usually not so bad but this time it was different. The rain seemed to be never ending. The pavilion was crammed with all kinds of people trying to stay dry. Unlike everyone else i was one of the few who decided to help so i could get my check and go

of people‚ from the far south to the east coast and across the Atlantic‚ I have had the opportunity to expand my mind and knowledge. Growing up in the military has also taught me the importance of manners and discipline. I remember when I was about 10 my dad made it a rule that if I forgot to answer with “yes sir” or “no sir”‚ I was required to do 10 push ups. Although the discipline wasn’t without justification though‚ it has come in handy more times that I can list‚ such as job interviews‚ meeting

Growing up as a Latina and a girl I was constantly reminded of the differences between me and other people around me.

My little town where I’d grown up‚ made friends‚ and built memories was‚ to say the least‚ completely un-diverse

In a Rush to Grow up A year ago all I could think about was‚ what could be any better than being an adult.

Growing up in rural Kansas was boring. Especially since I grew up in the seventies. There were no cell phones or game systems to occupy my time. My family had an old black and white television set. I loved to watch The Price is Right in the days before Bob Barker’s hair turned white. After the show was over‚ the only way to kill time was to play outside and wander down to the creek that ran parallel to our property. There was a secret trail buried in the wall of trees that lined our two acre yard
