 A time I did something out of the normal was probably back in 8th grade when I wore my first alternative outfit. I had never worn anything like it before. I was wearing a black shirt paired with a black skirt and some fishnets with chunky black boots. Ever since I was a kid I always a big fascination for the alternative fashion but my social anxiety never allowed me to act on it. When I stepped foot into the school hallway, some boys began laughing at me while singing a trendy emo meme song to ridicule me. I felt mocked and embarrassed when I had felt so confident at home. Eventually i began not caring what others thought of me and slowly started embracing my passion for fashion. Confidence is really an accessory as well because as soon as I started to walk with it others began to awknowledge my odd appearance in a good way. Moral of the story I did not let others confine me in to a box which they deemed normal and instead embraced what made ME happy. Today in class we worked on a paper assignment talking about stereotypes about latin women.

 A song that brings me a specific memory would be "Everybody Talks" By Neon Trees. It brings back one of my happiest memory's as a kid. I remember that day me and my sister were playing in the living room and my mom walks in and says "Get ready we're going to the water park". When I tell you I was ecstatic I ran to my room and changed into my Minnie mouse swimsuit. This was the first time I had ever went to the water park so it felt extra special. I remember the car ride to the place, I was watching the window picturing a ninja man crossing on top of the cars and the song Everybody Talks blasting through the radio. The wind was gliding through my face while I was sticking my tongue out to see how dry it could get. Then I saw the pirate statue and knew we were close. I had the time of my life and every time I hear that song it brings me immense nostalgia and joy.

 Someone who has influenced my life in a positive way would be my best friend Alexander. Although we haven't been friends for long that being me becoming friends with him in 11th grade. He has impacted my life in so many different ways. Alexander is a confident person and he encourages me to get out of my own comfort zone and branch out. When I was a kid I wasn't shy I always knew how to talk to people and speak up. I've lost that ability as I grew older but meeting him has finally shown me how much I missed putting myself out there. He also values his relationships so much and his care for me has shown me it is okay to be emotional. He has shown me to be such an empathetic person and I find that to be such an important trait to a person. Overall, Alexander brings out the best in me and I will forever feel like 100 while being his friend.
