  This whole first week was amazing I met many people and learned many things. When I met Red Cloud it opened my eyes to do what I want to do as a career and that is working in the Music Business. His raps inspire a little spark within me and DJ Hydroe mixed it like I have never seen before. Working at the garden, making drums, the songs and dancing that I have learned was fun and I hope I can share those teachings with my family. It is weird how I see Alejandro and I see my uncle within him. I feel his presence their and many things that Alejandro does is just like him. They both are the life of the party and I miss my uncle may he rest in paradise. This place is great I haven’t had this much fun in a while and I like to say thank you to everyone that's is here they changed who I am inside.

My Most Life Changing Moments

Ever since I was little my life was not what many children go

through. When I was born I had neither of my parents with me. My

father was deported around that time. He came across three

different borders just so he could come and take care of me. When I

was five-years-old immigration came and took my father away from me

once again. I was living with my grandma and my aunt until I was seven.

Around the same time my father won his deportation case and was not

sent back to El Salvador.

As I was growing up my father was looking for a mother for me.

It did not take long for him to find one of the best stepmothers in the

world. I love her with all of my heart. My life changed once my

parents got married and had a daughter. Sometime later my father

was arrested again but for a Rico charge meaning they wanted to

convict him for life with little evidence. It has been about three years

since my father has been charged and the FBI does not want to drop

the case and it is hurting our family economically.

One gift the creator gave me was my brother. Marlon and I were

did not like each other in the beginning but with time that changed. It

has been more than ten years and now we cannot live without each

other. His family all took me in as their own and I appreciate that and

I love them so dearly.

Recently my uncle Alvin passed away, he was diagnosed with

stage three colon cancer about four years ago and it was

devastating for us. I love so much he was my second father and my

teacher. My grandmas help out so much with my uncle and I love her

so much.
