Where I Fit I may not look like an undocumented alien‚ but until the age of 18 that’s just what I was. When the pundits began to tear into undocumented immigrants last summer‚ using terms like "parasites" and "criminals‚" my first reaction was to bury my head and turn off the TV.

When I went home the night after the presentation‚ I went through most of my clothing and shoes to see where they were made. Overall‚ Kelsey Timmerman was a great speaker.

Where My World Began ‘The sky is not the limit‚’ my father said. Every time I talked to him about something related to studies‚ he used to give this dialogue. He also added every time‚ ‘I have limited myself till the skies‚ but I want my son to reach above the sky.’ My father himself is an airline pilot but he wanted his son to be something better. He always wanted me to become an aerospace engineer. I always believed from the childhood to look at the topmost‚ at least you will reach to something

The book I am reading is Where the Heart Is by Billie Letts. I have read to the part that Novalee has been living at Walmart for the past month‚ because her boyfriend dumped her there and she had no where else to go. The last chapter that I read was Chapter six‚ this chapter is about a birthday dinner that Forney the library guy had for her. This book is very interesting‚ I am enjoying a lot. It is so be superticious about the number seven‚ but still be lucky enough to live at a Walmart for so long
