I really liked Kimberly presenation. You can see how hard she worked on it. She is a really good public speaker. Her presenation was very infromative. I thought it was intersting that schools in Oakland do Capstone projects. It was the first time of heard of them. I think that is a pretty cool idea.

I learn a lot today that I did not know. I think Dr. Sacramento gave a really good lecture. I liked the way she explain the terms. I thought her presnation was very imformative. It honestly made me think of ways to bring my future students history and stories in my classroom as well and understand how I can support them and their needs. But I have to educdate myself first and learn how to do it correctly. And honeslty today's class made me think of my  high school unless your were Puente or BSU or Filipino club you are not exposed to your culture, reading that you can relate to or hear the perspectives that relate to you. I honeslty think seeing and hearing those stories and history is imporant

I think my collage represents things that I have always been interested in and loved as a kid. As a kid I loved Pokemon, Mario Kart , learning about animals and cool places, and playing with Legos. Some of the best memories that I have growing up was playing Mario Kart and Super Mario Bros with my brothers and my cousins. We used to be obsessed with video games and competing against each other. We all wanted to be the best and beat each other. And these games got really competitive at times. But they're some of the best memories I have. We all enjoyed being around each other and laughing.

In elementary school some of the best memories I had involved playing with legos, Pokemon cards, Yu-Gi-Oh cards, and Power Rangers.I made a lot of my friends because of Pokemon and Legos. Some of my best friends that I still have till this day like my friend Carlos and Daniel. I became friends because of our love of pokemon and legos at that time.  We used to like building cool things out of legos, like spaceships, warships, airplanes, tanks, tall buildings, and everything that will come to our mind.

As a kid I always loved learning and reading. Some of my favorite books growing up were reading the national graphic kids edition magazines. I love reading about animals and cool places around the world. I always wanted to travel when I got older to travel to these places and see them in person. and I think I developed this Love for Learning and reading because of my grandparents. I used to watch documentaries with them all the time and I became fascinated with learning about ancient history, different parts of the world, different cultures, and animals that I have never seen before. I just love learning. And hopefully one day I'm able to create that same love for learning for my students. I want them to find what they're interested in and continue to grow and develop as lifelong learners.

And I picked up a lot of phrases that spoke to me like embrace the best parts of life, past present and future, equity, unique, dream big, lessons, Innovative and resourceful. Big Dreamers unleash their imagination to see what might be.

The art piece that I really like was the circle of ancestors. I honestly really feel connected to it. and it really showed me that even though your loved ones who are no longer here are still with you spiritually and always looking out for you. When I saw this  I started thinking about my grandma and the people who I loved. I started thinking about my grandma and how much she meant to me. and all the memories that I had with her. I still feel connected to them and I feel that they're still looking out for me.

Reflection #1 notes: "I leave class feeling lighter but heavier" ; don't let people in -I always had a problem letting people know my problem - something I need to change; "Being vulnerable is hard." [Jesus! Why do you think you need to change this? Let's practice, what's going on that you are willing to share with me, that is interfering with you turning in work? What are you realizing is different that you thought it would be?]

CHECK the BOX

aka “On the Question of Race”

(in unison)

They ask me to check the box for

“race”

And I think

And think very seriously

Then I begin to imagine writing down my truth

The whole truth

And have my answer read

My skin ...

Is brown just like my moms

My face ...

I see my dark brown eyes that hold so much hope for a better tomorrow for me and my family, I see somebody that overcame many obstacles but never lost his smile, and I see the scar from the time I crashed my bike.  My cousins were trying to teach me how to drift for the first time when we were riding our bikes. But I crashed. But it was still fun day tho.

It (is or is like) ...

My face is a like representation of everything that I have gone through, my family’s american dream, my culture, and the way people view me without knowing me,

When I look at my face in the mirror, I see ...

How much I have changed throughout the years. I still see the pain and worry in my eyes that I never allow anyone to see. But I also see someone who is happy and optimistic.

When you look at my face I want you to see ...

Somebody that is proud of where he comes from and how far he has come. Somebody who's  honestly trying the best they can.

(in unison)

But they didn’t ask me for “the whole truth”

They ask me to check the box for

My race

And I continue to think

And think very seriously

I imagine I am writing down my truth

And my answer will read like this.

I have ...

My dad
he always made sure we were doing good and on the right path. He has always been there for us when things get tough and in our best moments.

He always made me feel someone had my back

inside this body.

I have ...

My mom
She does everything for me and my siblings, she does all the little things for us, she is always there for us, she always notices when we are having a bad day. She always finds a way to cheer us up. She is always there when we need somebody to talk to, she always make sure we were taken care of

My mom has allowed to feel loved and understood, she always wanted the best for me and my siblings

inside this body.

(in unison)

They ask me to check the box for

My race

And I continue to think

And think very seriously

This is my truth

And my answer will be read like this.

I have ...
Carne Asadas
Some of the best memories I have growing was spending time with my family and having a carne asada. All of my cousins would be together and play. I was really happy because we are all together. This was a happy space where everyone is  laughing, eating, reminiscing, and listening to music together.
Having a Carne asada has allowed my family and friends to have a day to just relax and forgot about the worries we have, it allowed us to have a moment of peace.

inside this body.

I have …

A lot of faith in La Virgin de Guadalupe and San Judas because of my Abuelita Chela

Since I was little she taught me to never lose faith no matter how difficult things seem to be. She taught me how to pray and we would often pray for better days together when I was little.

Whenever I pray when I am going through something I feel that I am still connected with my Abuelita Chela even though she is no longer here.
Because of her I will never lose my hope for a better tomorrow, I will keeping work hard and keep all the lessons she taught me in my heart until my last day

inside this body.

I have …

my prayer cards in my wallet at all time that both my abuelitas gave me. Abuelita Chela and Abuelita Tersa. The prayer cards that were blessed by a priest they have the images of San Judas and San Pedro.

They gave it to me so San Judas and San Pedro can keep me safe.  I still feel connected to both of them even though they are both no longer with me physically. These cards to me represent the love they had for me and wanting to keep me safe.

inside this body.

(in unison)

These are my truths

I am ...

grateful, happy, proud, learning, growing, and easy going.

I am/I am like...

A rough diamond that was overlooked for many years because of its appearance and its rough past but lucky was discovered by the right people who helped show the world its true value

I have...

A dream of helping my community. I want to help people achieve their dreams, no matter how wild or crazy they sound. I want to help people, I just want to make this world a happier place.

inside this body.

(in unison)

I know my truths

Yet still they ask me to check the box for

My race

And there is no room for me to write my whole truth

So I simply “check all of the boxes that apply”

I am just a young man who many thought would never  amount to anything but was able to bet on himself and prove them wrong

I am a child of immigrants who represents his family's American dream and hope for a better tomorrow.

No matter how much money I get and no matter how educated I get I will never forgot where I come from and lose my vaules. I will always be the same Jesus
