    friend that you are like my family with rather than friends. These kind of friends are the ones that last forever just like diamonds. Lucky for me I unearthed a rather rare diamond amongst the many cubic zirconia named Jasmine Frazier. Jasmine and I became acquainted with each other when we were in the fourth grade. She was the funniest, caring, and most protective person I have ever meet and these three traits were what made her a friend like no other. First, Jasmine was my rather adorable, brown-skinned

    things that I am completely enamored by; photography, writing and reading. My mom used to take photography classes every Tuesday while my dad was going through his residency. I would eagerly await by the door with my grandmother to see my mom’s photos at the end of the night. I was always fascinated by what she could create and, at the age of seven, I believed her photos were the best out there. As I grew I discovered other photographers that I loved and used them as inspiration. As I type now I can see
