My concern was I was not sure if the family were aware of my lack of communication with them in the early stages of intervention‚ as I tended to engage with Alan and not acknowledge them when they were answering questions directed at Alan. I did feel general discomfort in the room

I want to let you know what page I am on. I have been sorting out my feelings about my last experience at the salon. I was very excited about getting the purple highlights in my hair. I don’t know if we didn’t communicate well or if there were 2 different visions mine and yours. I know it’s awkward and the source of miscommunications can be hard to pinpoint about where the hair took a wrong turn. When I first saw the hair color it was a huge shock. I really didn’t know what to say or how to react

So‚ my trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento was very different from my other trips. Sure I once when on a road trip to Portland by land‚ but it was actually different. Our family basically had 3 days to go anywhere we wanted to‚ and we brought only a few supplies. On road trips‚ my family just goes yolo on the spot. Whatever is there to eat we eat whatever there is and everything we do it like what is available. So it started after getting out of our hotel. We drove for the next 1 ½ hour just driving

In my experience‚ I don’t think I am reluctant to a specific identity. Houston is a very diverse city that people can find almost any type of music genre. In my community there are Hispanic and African American families. The music that is heard is of all kinds from “R&B‚ Pop music‚ Reggae‚ to Cumbia‚ Bachata and Regional Mexicano.” I have lived in the same community ever since I was born and in my opinion‚ I have grown up listening to the different types of music genres. This has shaped my identity

really thought about. I was a girl and that was that. It was definitely assumed for me based on my biological “label” of female at birth. I grew up with two sisters so there were lots of baby dolls and Barbies. But as I got older‚ aspects of other gender(s) became aware to me that I decided I wanted to incorporate into my own gender. I did not like wearing dresses so that “norm” was thrown out of my wardrobe options. I was much more comfortable in pants and a t-shirt playing outside. I became

Tossing my graduation cap into the air was a bitter-sweet moment. It symbolized all my proud accomplishments and hard work over the years--the sweat‚ the tears‚ the joy‚ the Monday morning coffees and countless hours of trying to staying awake until 1AM to prepare for the final exam. Throwing the graduation cap into the air also symbolized ambiguity-- something I feared. I was always the type of person who knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life thanks to my parents’ support and LEAP. My goals

After losing in the second round of the soccer playoffs‚ my team was wondering what we could do to improve. The improvement in soccer that we needed was not that of technical work‚ but instead more game experience. After much thought I came up with the idea to try to join an indoor soccer league. Although it was very easy to set up the team‚ it was extremely difficult to get the players to commit to coming every week to the game that was scheduled. I had set up a group text and would ask each player

Rice My heart was pounding. The next break point was two miles away and I was already breaking down. The soles of my feet were hurting because I brought the wrong type of shoes. I had been told to prepare myself physically for this backpacking trip‚ but I thought how hard can a weekend of backpacking be. So I let my ego and laziness take over me. As I look back at that moment‚ I realize that I was not physically ready for that trip. I also wasn’t mentally ready. I didn’t realize that there was a

When I was born‚ my family started to struggle with bills and payments. So we had to make a hard choice and to move from California all the way to Cresco. And I haven’t seen my family since I was a baby which‚ I have no memory of them and I haven’t seen them since we moved. I use to always think of my family or be listening to a song that reminds me of them. Then soon or later I started to cry and ask my mom about my family. And they would say “It takes time”.

As an Immigrant‚ there were many challenges I faced whether it’s related to language or understanding the culture. My family moved to United States of America when I was in 6th grade. I was always told by my parents that building a successful career is very important. This idea of building a successful career never stuck in my mind until the junior year of high school when I all sudden all the teachers and counselors started talking about going to college build a career in a field that you were interested
