Narration I went to the Emergency Room for the first time when I was thirteen years old. It all came about when I was skateboarding in front of my grandma’s house and I tried to do a trick.

something new every game. I first started playing at the age of five on a little league team with seven of my best friends. We were inseparable. We practiced together‚ went to school together and all lived in the same neighborhood. We all aspired to one day win a state championship for our high school. Suddenly we didn’t come to the field expecting to win. We came to the field expecting to lay a whooping on someone‚ and more often than not that’s what ended up happening. Coming into junior year there

Enrique’s Journey Axes paragraphs 1 and 2 1 No this does not surprise me they come and take this risk for a better life‚ this is why they do these things. Even though they risk their lives just to have a better life for them and their children. Migrants usually arrive with nothing‚ men get robbed and beaten‚ and women get robbed and raped.
