I thought Aaron Thomas did a great job speaking. His message that we was getting across was kind of tear jerking I had to hold my tears back throughout many parts of his speech.

Proud and grateful are the two words that come to my mind when I think about being Hispanic. In spite of the fact that my parents were the ones to make sacrifices, I am able to understand how much my family has gone through to be where they are today. Ever since I was a little girl, my dad always told me stories of when he was a child. Born in Costa Rica, my father and his family did not have a lot of money. Whenever I would complain about food, he would always tell me to be grateful because he
In the book, THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ, Dorothy lives in a small farm house in Kansas. Everything in Kansas is gray. The author states "Not a tree or house broke the broad sweep of flat country that reached the edge of the sky in all directions. The sun had baked.
