Dear. Mr. Lac Su I would like to start off by saying Thank You very much Mr. Lac Su‚ Reading your book brought to surface many of the occurrences in my life that I have found myself hiding from. You told my story seen through your eyes but from a different environment‚ I honestly thought I was alone in this world until I read your book.

I didn’t always like going to school in the morning; in fact‚ I used to hate going to school. I always found it boring‚ useless‚ and a waste of time. I always asked my self‚ “when will I ever need to do/use this outside of this classroom?” The process of getting up early‚ getting ready and then sitting at school for seven hours a day Monday through Friday didn’t appeal to me one bit. Little by little‚ I had unknowingly programmed myself into thinking that it was such a burden to go‚ that I eventually

Pa receives some extra food stamps from Uncle Sam‚ so he decides to take his family out to the restaurant around the corner of their house. Obviously‚ this is the first time of them eating in the American

One of the aphorisms in this novel that I love and applies to me is‚ “If you really want it‚ then you’ll make your dreams happen.” It relates to me because I’m trying to be a foreign exchange student next year. It’s been a goal I’ve had for awhile‚ and so many people try to tell me I can’t do it. I’ve set my mind to doing it‚ and I think everyone should think this way and try to achieve their goals. People should aim high in life and never stop until they reach the top. Anything is possible if you

The Time I Got My Dog It was late one summer night‚ long past my bedtime. The moon was so bright it lit up the yard. Somewhere down the river a freighter honked. I got up and looked out the window. It was so foggy I couldn’t see. I laid in my bed‚ wondering if anyone was up. So I crept down the stairs‚ and I saw a light. I heard voices. Then I saw my mom and dad. They were on the computer. I saw pictures of English Mastiffs on the screen. My heart leaped. “Were getting a dog?” I asked excitedly

What is Love? A couple of days ago‚ I was watching a movie where an English teacher asks her students to discuss ‘what is love’. Majority of the class did not know how to respond. At first‚ I found this odd considering that love is a universally understood emotion that can be felt by most human beings. We express the emotion on a daily basis‚ whether it be towards our family‚ friends‚ or significant others. However‚ upon some introspection‚ I realized that it is difficult to come up with a solid

The way you surprise people when their least expecting it‚ or jump at them when they want it the most. You are happy. But you have your days‚ where you can be down. Oh love‚ how I wish to feel the warmth of your wrath that others have felt. I wait. And wait. But nothing seems to come. You link two people‚ in ways unimaginable. You‚ my love‚ are like glue. You
