SUP BLOOD!
For the first time my friends didn’t do some crazy shit in hollywood. So far my friends have started arguments with random people in in-n-out, banged on people saying “SUP BLOOD!”, and played the penis game down sunset. Actually my friend Oscar has done all of this. He is the only who does crazy stuff. Ma nizzle is craaayyy.
Beating the odds, Latino twins make it to Harvard and West Point
Twin brothers Arnulfo (left) and Jesus Moran will graduate from an inner city high school that has a 60 percent drop-out rate.
Four years of hard work and discipline have paid off for two Latino twins who will graduate from a pubic high school in Los Angeles this June. Arnulfo Moran got accepted to West Point, while his brother, Jesus, is going to Harvard.
It’s an impressive feat for any family. But for Jesus and Arnulfo Moran, whose school has a 60 percent drop out rate and is located in one of the city’s poorest neighborhoods, the achievement was unprecedented, and it was hailed as an inspiration for classmates and others trying to beat the odds.
Summer
I can kill two birds with one stone by taking stats here at a community college. Taking stats at a community college here is way easier than taking it at berks. If i take a philosophy class or classics class in berk during the summer I can boost up my gpa.
I don’t take my parents for granted. I spend as much time as I can with them. Because with my mom in her mid 50’s and my dad in his mid 60’s… I will never know when is going to be the last time that I am going to see them.
My motivation for spending the summer in berkeley goes beyond academics. Actually, why am I bullshitting, I know exactly why I want to go to berkeley this summer, and it is not academics. I have to make a decision by monday. Should I stay home? Will going to berkeley be worth it?
