The goals I accomplished in September


http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=Mexican+Flag&&

One of the goals I accomplished this month was to be in the Mexican Independence Parade. I want really in it because it got rained out but it wasnt my fault. So to me I accomplisehed it because i was going to be in it but it got rained out. It was funny because every one showed up to go march including myself and some of us were real wet then one of our instructors came and told us to go home that the parade was rained out. We were all real mad and dissapointed but we still had a little bit of fun.











Another goal I have accomplished is to hang out at black hole. This goal was actually accomplidhed the same day as the Mexican Indepedence day parade. It was hilarious because like I said we had fun still so when we left the school to go home we went to black hole Just Ivan and me because the others left to I dont know where. We were just there for a While but hey it was still accomplished. (black hole is an arcde at 26 street.)


I want to accomplish at least 2 more goal for october Like buy the LAX cd and have some crazy Halloween Fun.

Slave Narrative (The Life Of Wilson)



Ima bout to tell ya'll ma story I dont members much but ima tell ya'll what I does remembers. Well befo I tells ya'll anythang ima tell ya'll ma name ma names Wilson. What I members is that ise from Alabama. Slave days was real bad ya'll. Ise be workin in them fields pickin cotton fo the master to trades wit others. The master had lots of us slaves workin them fields since a lil befo the sun come out to a lil befo it go down sometimes he woulnt gives us notin to eat on. Wese were hungry most o the time. I memebers that ise try to scape once. Let me tell ya'll what happend. I members it was piiiitch dark outside ise runnin from where ise sleep in a cabin outside it was like a lil house fo us slaves. Now i didnt members that the master had some o them bloodhounds theys start barkin while ise tryin to clim up the fence. Now the master comes out and checks them cabins he notice ise missin, an he start lookin round fo me. He gave to one o them bloohounds a rag ise left at the cabin to sniff it. Ise waitin sittin by a tree fo them to leave inside so ise could try to climb again but the bloodhound fount me an ise start screamin because it was bittin on me.it had bit one of ma fingers off an when the master fountme he took me in the room where he would have slaves whipped with a long wet whip. This was ma first time bein whiped beside i had ma finger bitten off he still whipped me. He nearly had whiped me to death he still made me work in them cotton fiels next monin wit ma finger bitten off. He thn warned them slaves not to try what ise done o he will do the exact same thang or worse. After that ma slave life went worse ise was checked upon all the time now ise coulnt try to scape no moe even though ise wanted to. That was the thang ise wanted the most ise wanted to escape an be a free slave. After ise noticed ise not able to scape ise found ma self a lady. Her names be clarissa. We had 2 young beautiful chillen. We named one a boy wilson just like his daddy an the other a girl we name her flower. The master I hpoe now he fryin in hell he sold ma chillen he sold wilson ma boy he sol him to a mean master named curtis he sold him bout the time he was 3 years old. He sold clarissa to another master bot when she was 2 years old. Ma wife clarissa was whiped to death after she tried to stop the master from sellin flower. (scuse the tears ya'll). After the master did that to ma family he kilt himself he hanged himself in the room where he kilt ma wfie clarissa an dhere he would whipp all the other slaves. After he kilt himself we were free slaves we could now do whtaever we whanted to. ise left to nother area of alabama. I built maself a lil home near a lil river. Ise teach maself to write an read an ise start to write stories of real slaves that ise know while ise a slave. Ma dream of bein a freed slave came true jus comes to show you how if you work at things what could happen.

Why do you value stuff the least?

One reason that I value my stuff or things like(clothes, shoes etc.) the least is because I just don't feel that they are that important. I don't know why though I just feel like I could always get agin like whatever I have. like say I get a new shirt I wont really care for it the next day i'll wear it and when I take it off i'll just throw it anywhere. So compared to my family my stuff is the least important thing that I could think of.

Another reason I care for my stuff the least is beacuse it wont always be there like my family will. It wont last a lifetime. My shirt ain't going to tell me that its ok when I fail. My family will they will be there to push me to be a succesful person, my shirt wont do that or would it? They will are also there to talk to mwhn i need or when I have a problem.

The last and final reason is because I could never ever get another family unless i get adopted or something. I could always get another or clothes but I could never get another family at least not like the one I have.Also could not buy another family but I could buy other things.I could mistreat my things by leaving them and throwing them anywhere but I cnat mistreat my famyl unless they mistreat me real bad and I get mad.
