Entry 4-Presently a black family car came roaring around the corner, halting to a stop just in front of the warehouse. Both of my parents immediately got to their feet, waiting expectantly for the doors of the car to open. That was when a man stepped out from the driver’s seat and started towards us, each step purposeful and confident. My Father stood straighter ready to confront and greet our extremely gracious and generous relative. They shook hands solemnly, making direct eye-contact as they discussed what would be happening now that we were finally in America. Even though I only heard snippets of the conversation that was occurring, I concluded that we would be travelling up to a place called New York, where the rest of our family …show more content…
After he finished with me, he did the same to my Father until we were all camouflaged within the confines of the car. Seemingly satisfied with his handiwork, my Uncle revved up the car and began the long drive to New York that would approximately take 36 solid hours. Eventually I began to feel more and more cramped inside that car seat as minutes and then hours proceeded to come and go. As far as I can remember we only stopped once, so that Uncle Alejandro could rest briefly and so that we could massage the stiffness and cramps out of our joints and attend to whatever needs we had. Then we were back on the road, a tedious journey that was extremely dull. Especially since I could barely see through the material of the head of the car seat to look at the sights that would no doubt pass us by. However, I did manage to catch glimpses of a flashing sign, tree, car or house at times, which did make me interested for a second before they would vanish out of view. Occasionally my Uncle looked back at us to check how we were holding up, and even told us some of the names of the places that we had travelled through. Apparently to get to New York we would have to travel 3,884.6km through America. I couldn’t even begin to comprehend what that distance must look like, for I don’t ever remember travelling so far in Mexico, as I had currently travelled in the last week.
Suddenly, interrupting my thoughts, my Uncle whispered to us in
The journey began, the first state we rode through was Alabama, I couldn’t see much since it was night time. All I could see was the clear night sky. No stars were shining that night. The only lights I could see were street lights, building lights, and other cars. Looking around inside the car, everyone was asleep except for my uncle since he was the one driving. I must have been asleep the whole 4 hours and 46-minute car ride through Mississippi because I don’t remember anything, same with Louisiana. Finally, when we got to Texas all I wanted to do was get out of the car, so luckily, we stopped by to eat at Cici’s. My aunt said, “To enjoy this last meal since it was the last fast food, that we would be having for a while.” After we ate, it took us about 5-hours to get to Matamoros, Mexico. That was where we had to drive through the border to get into Mexico. Once we got into Mexico, there were lines of cars everywhere from people trying to enter and leave at the same time. The lines were slowly moving, like a turtle, inch by inch. There
The darkness consumed my cousin, but not completely. A part of me did not want to believe that she committed a mass murder and maybe, just maybe it was someone else. But the proof that the police needed was all there. We weren’t that close but it pained me to know that someone who i thought to be as a kind and caring person could kill people.

shoving each other to get the first breathe of “American Air.” I held the children close to me as we winded up the many flights of stairs. My heart beat was increasing at each step I took, for it was such a thrill. It was a great joy to watch the little one’s expressions as they too were as excited as I was. We stepped outside and walked a ways following the crowd as we all slowly entered a large building. There was a sign hanging above the entrance that said “ Ellis Island.”

I cauked my wagon and lost one day of food supplies that we couldn't afford to lose.
The struggle between being an individual and a member of a community is a constant struggle of life. It is shown in various media such as photos and films. In addition, the struggle is often the conflict in books. The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian is a prime example of a book that showcases this internal conflict. It’s a very relatable subject that many people including myself have faced. The struggle between being an individual and a member of a community can be shown in pictures, books and real life. First of all, this picture is a great representation of the quote. The light grey figure symbolizes someone branching outside their community. The black figures symbolize the community, as you can see they’re all identical and
On March 4th, 2018, I, Officer Albert, was working as a Police Officer for the Wichita State University Police Department. At approximately 0150 hours I was dispatched to Shocker Hall for a suspicious character report. The suspicious character was a white male wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt riding a skateboard. I arrived at approximately 0151 hours on the south side of Shocker Hall and walked down the south steps towards the courtyard. Officer Andrew Abbey was on scene talking with an individual fitting the suspicions character description, see Officer Abbey's report. I spoke with the individual later identified as Tyler Micol Dane Kuhn. Kuhn's eyes were glassy and his pupils were large. Kuhn's hands were shaking and he seemed confused. Kuhn wasn't able to
As I woke from what I thought was my bedroom, I felt a slight shiver and overheard ongoing commotion in the background. Unaware of the current situation I continued to keep my eyes closed and I tried to fall back asleep when suddenly I felt a grip on my right shoulder shaking me back and forth until I finally regained consciousness. "Estamos Aqui"-We are here, exclaimed my brother Alberto. I scanned my surroundings as I was forced to step out the vehicle. Intimidated by the crowded streets and baffled by the size of each building around me I froze in place trying to keep my composure. I was a six-year-old kid when I arrived in the United States from Mexico. Thus, initiated an entirely new world with a conglomerate of experiences for me.
I am only going to refer to my personal scan rate for the month of December, 2017. The December ER-KBMA -Compliant Form documents three non-scan medicinces
As soon as Bifur, Bofur, Thorin and I entered the hobbit hole we were in a heap on the floor, me being on top. Poor Thorin for he was on the bottom. As soon as we were all right side up everyone was requesting their meal of choice and so of course I offered up pork-pie and salad because I was extremely hungry after the trip here. Oh you should have the seen that small creature prancing all over the place trying to serve us. I took pity on him because it is quite a chore to feed 14 hungry men. After being served my brothers and I talked and talked because it had been a while since our last get together, and I of course indulged in the endless amounts of goodies. If you have ever seen my belly you would understand that when it comes to food I don’t play around. At last it seemed the food had run out, sadly, so we began to clean up. I’m proud to say that my duty was to clear off all
