 One place that i never wanted to leave was my home back in Mexico, mainly because that is where i grew up, and i had a couple of friends that lived close to where i lived. I also have many memories at that place that i cherish everyday. We started a one pager for the ¨Ambush¨ story. It helps me pick put certain information about the story that can help me understand the story better.

 One secret that was revealed to me when i was younger was that i did not have my fathers last name on my birth certificate, my mom said that it was a mistake and that they had already changed it. Even tho it was already fixed, i did not know about this until i was 15, i had lived about 12 or 13 years of my life without knowing this.

One time that i knew i was in trouble was when i broke my mom's cup, it was one that she really liked and i knew that, so i tried to hide it by saying it was my dog that did it, but i felt bad and later told her that i broke it when i was playing and that i did not mean it.

Something that i have too much of is Family. Back in Mexico i had family that lived a couple of minutes away from where i lived, and my friends and people always knew who they were when i mentioned their name. Here at the U.S. i also have relatives that live a couple of minutes away from where i live, although the majority are from my dads side, my moms relatives used to visit us every once in a while.

 One person that i forgot about was my childhood friend from when i was in Mexico, i forgot about him because as soon as I arrived at the U.S. i was enrolled to a new school and i did´nt have a way to communicate with him and keep in touch, making new friends and learning a new language kept me from reaching out to him. I was only recently able to talk to him when i got a phone and spend some time trying to get his socials.

 Some things that i have planned to do are increase my grades, balance and improve my social life, reduce the time i spend on social media, and have a healthy diet. So far i have only managed to do halve of these things, and i am currently trying to increase my grades in order to pass the semester. I have been trying to manage my time wisely to be able to get my homework done and have enough time to study the things that trouble me. I´m hoping that as time passes i get closer to completing these goals that i have proposed to myself.
