Yo Soy 5

Yo soy alguien que a vivido 17 primaveras.
I am a hundred percent proud to be Mexican.
I am an only daughter.
I am the older sister of two little boys,
and the small sister of a boy I see once a year.
I am that girl with perfect grades in elementary school.
I am someone who not only makes mistakes but I've learned from them.
Yo soy quien trata de reconstruir su vida con cada dia pasa.
I am that fifth-year senior who can barely believe she can finally graduate.
I am sure now that everything happens for a reason & that for every bad there is a good.
I am the one that has extreme fear of spiders but is wierd enough to love snakes.
I am the one who used to love to have drama but now just wants to stay away from.
I am proud to know that others seek help from me.
I am proud to be part of the New Life Tigers.
I am an undecisive & confused & even wierd but most of all I am, Myself.

Alternative Family

This school is not an institution,
it's a home away from home.
We are valued as students here,
reminded of our strength when we feel alone.
We stand together as brothers and sisters,
we are talented artists painting a picture.
When faced with daily troubles and worldwide problems,
we trust each other to step up and help solve them.
Although we are all different people who follow different trends,
we respect each other as classmates and friends.
I personally have been through many tough times this year,
but I rest easy knowing that my Alternative Family will always be here.
-Stacey Ray

I'm quiet most of the time, but I am honestly thankful to be part of a wonderful group in this amazing school.
