GAME!!! No‚ not one of those games. The game of Life! No‚ not the game with colorful tokens and a plastic spinner either. I won a game I did not even know I was playing before I even knew I was playing. Born a girl in rural China‚ I laid flat on my back for eleven months in an orphanage. I did not know when my next meal would be and I rocked myself to sleep at night. In the end‚ I won the lottery and found myself in an American family. Throughout my childhood I cannot remember ever being told that

I took the math test and did pretty well at it.

Life has become the equivalent to a sideshow‚ people see the act and cheer loudly only to inspire you to keep it going‚ but behind the scenes the real mess is hidden by a tattered velvet curtain. The phone rings‚ text ding‚ Facebook likes sore‚ and retweets beg for my attention all expecting a witty upbeat remark that I respond with through the filter of my digital self. Everyday I receive perfectly worded digital questions and take my time crafting and arranging every

Student Work Portfolio Senior Reflection I’ve been in AITE since my freshman year‚ I walked into the school not knowing anyone and now I’m walking out knowing everyone.
