this meant new opportunities and a new chapter in my life, It still made the event scary and depressing this event cause a lot of problems with my as of i blamed her for taking me away for those i loved , but in the end I got used to the idea of starting over in anew place i started liking it and I learned that all my mom wanted was my happiness, I overcame this by getting used to my new environment and by becoming more social with others. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:25:24 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355029628 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355029637 The experience a difficult time in your life and it created a darkness or negative paradigm was when I was 10 years old and I was playing soccer. I was playing soccer and I fell down by accident then I count't even move my legs I felt like I'm lame. And my sister called me to house but I couldn't even stand up. My sister came closer to me and she asked why am I not coming inside and I said I fell down and I can't even stand up. She thought I'm joking but I wasn't. And I was about to cry tears are coming. My friends came to me and asked are you OK? I said no, they helped me to come into my house. We went to doctor they said my legs were uprooted. I was so depressed and I thought I can't even play soccer anymore but doctors said I might play soccer again after 1 month or less but he said but I have to be careful. So I was depressed just like Zebra. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355029637 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355029679 An experience that led me to darkness or made me negative was ]]> 2019-04-29 14:25:27 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355029679 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030381 A negative paradigm that i have experienced is the death of my great grandfather. His death affected me since I was 12 at the time and i was still maturing and my personalty was still changing. His death kind of affected everybody in my family but since his death was my first experience of losing someone close and drastically changed the way how I act.  Still it is hard with the knowing fact that his death keeps weighing on me, I've asked multiple friends for advice and just to talk about it but every time I do I just seem to get the same responses. Instead of talking about it,I just try to forget about it. I would say that it connects me and zebra because he saw darkness and I saw darkness. But the darkness that was greater was zebra's since his arm enabled him to not be able to participate in things he loves doing.]]> 2019-04-29 14:26:51 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030381 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030587 An experience that led me to darkness or a negative paradigm was when my mom used to scream at me for no reason. After school I always come home and clean my house, my mom comes after me, because she's working. When she's coming she's always screaming at me, because I didn't do certain things, but she never understand that maybe in school I had problems, or a bad grade. I never talk to her about anything, because I came like 1 year ago, and before that I was living with my grandparents, I talked to them and they listened to me, but now I can't really talk to my mom because I don't feel like it, also I don't think she cares. So what make me be sad or led me to darkness is my mom screaming that I can't do anything right, and that I'm always like that, but she never see that, at that time I was doing my homework and trying to study. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030587 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030662 A difficult time in my life was when I got my xbox taken away. This was a negative paradigm for me because my xbox is a value to me simply because it makes me happy.  It felt like my parents were plotting against me because they were aware at how much I loved my xbox and just video games in general. At the time I was 9 so I didn't know any better but I was bored out of my mind. I overcame this by doing chores around the house so that my parents could be aware that I am committed to getting my xbox back. Me and Zebra can relate because we both couldn't do something we loved to do.]]> 2019-04-29 14:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355030662 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031202 An experience that led me to darkness or a negative paradigm was when my grandfather passed away.The time was 3.00 a.m and everyone were sleeping and then we got a call from my big brother.Then he told us that.It makes my family to be depression, especially my mom.It was darkness life for us and it was hard time to past that.The time just make us to lose the depression and make us more feel better.That's how we got out from that problem.]]> 2019-04-29 14:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031202 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031382 The Most difficult and darkest time I've ever had was when I was 12 years old, because my mom told me the thing, she should've told much more earlier. So basically, I was supposed to have a twin brother, but something happened which was really unexpected. I was ready to born, but my twin was too weak to do so. After we both came out, I could breath, but my twin brother couldn't do same thing. There was nothing to help with, my twin was gone, my parents were crying, burst in tears. I found this out when I was 12, And I was in a big depression,  I thought there was nothing in life to live for, If my Twin wouldn't live, why should I?, I asked myself. But my mom calmed me down and said "maybe you don't have a twin but, you have brothers who make you happy", I thought about those words all the time and began to be happy again. That's how I got out from that situation. My story connects Zebra's, because we both lost something really important for us.]]> 2019-04-29 14:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031382 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031732 An experience that led me to darkness or a negative paradigm 
was when I was at age of six, other students made me feel like an 
 outsider As a kid I was a little weird ( I'm still weird from this day forward), so I didn't have any friends. I was an in extroverted kid but still no one want to hang out with me. Soon after my life at school, other kids started to treat me like garbage. They acted like I was there toy that they can step on. It struck me down and made me feel heart broken. I would find away to not go to school
and pretend I was sick. I always thought that my family wouldn't care because my brother and sister would tease me a lot, and couldn't tell a teacher because I was afraid that the other students would bully me more. But i realized that in order to make it stop, I had to tell an adult.The first person I talked to was my father. I was a little scared 
at first, but when I talk to him he made me feel a little confident about myself. he told me  "never listen to anyone and what they say about you. You are your own self and what you do is who you are''.Those words changed my life,he taught me not to care what they had to say, and if they would attack me physically. I just told a teacher. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355031732 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032119 An time when i experienced a difficult time in my life and it created a darkness or negative paradigm is my father not being in the picture . Even though its been years since my father left it still has a negative impact on me . Seeing my mother struggle everyday to manage  me and my two sisters , and then seeing your mom crying cause she feels like shes not doing enough had to be the hardest part because seeing your mom cry hurt different .Then , comes fathers day and events where kids come with there dads and you cant . Your friends talking about how there father did this and that but you cant relate . And then there`s days where I just want to talk to him but i cant , because there are some things that only a father can help you with or help you get through things but when u call he`s not there for you . And just because i don`t really feel like talking about things like this you just have to put up a front and act like everything's okay  but its really not . I can relate to Zebra because we both lost something the we loved .]]> 2019-04-29 14:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032119 quadirgrant https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032351 A time when I experienced a difficult time in my life was when I lost my PC. I was using it in a park and I was talking with my friends on an online game. I was going to use the bathroom and I put my PC into a bag holder. I left it on the bench and ran very far to the bathroom. Ten minutes later, when I ran back to where I was sitting, it was gone. I knew I got robbed somehow. I looked around the park for any suspicious person holding my bag, but there wasn't any luck. I felt like my life was turned upside down after I left the park. I told my mom about it and she told me that I should have bring the PC with me, but I told her that it was in the bag. She told me that people would steal anything they get their hands on. After I lost my PC, I felt like I just lost my closest friends on the internet, although I had some who were in the same school as me. I valued the PC as my "friend" as well because of it's voice assistance search. In the following 3 months, my mom told me that I could make new friends, but I told her there was no point in making new friends because it's like leaving you're old ones behind for no reason. Plus, even if I made new friends, they wouldn't like the same game I was playing on my PC than my old friends, and they wouldn't like my personality about going online than my older friends. I felt bored during those 3 months, but not all hope was lost. when my mom decided to buy me an iphone 6, I was hype. The next following week, my iphone was delivered from Amazon on my doorstep. I hurriedly ran out of bed early in the morning so that no one would rob it, just like my PC. One lesson that I learned is that just because you lost something doesn't mean you lost all your "progress" on it. You can sometimes get something that can recover your progress, just like my emails, and could function better than what you originally owned. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032351 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032413 A difficult time in my life that led to darkness and a negative paradigm in my life was when I lost my great grandma. The year of 2016 I came home from school and I noticed my mother on the phone with my aunt. My aunt told my mother that my great grandmother passed away. When my mother told me that, it broke my heart not only to me but to my mother especially. I was mainly crying at the fact that my great grandmother died and I never got the chance to say my goodbyes before I came to the U.S.  I've always loved and cared for my great grandmother. But, being one of the only people in my family that my grandmother adored so much no matter how much tough love she would put me through. This made me realize that not all loved one aren't meant to be here forever. Lastly, Zebra and I would have some type of connections since we both lost something or someone that was really important to us.

It was very upsetting to my six year old brain because that all I knew I had been playing football for most of my six year old life.I also felt like mt mom was plotting against me because I was really good at.So I didn't care about much I did my work at the bare minimum just to get buy. I didn't talk to my friends as much and I was way more quiet at home. Them I found basketball and at first I was really bat at it like garbage but i'm getting better at and finding where I fit and my role on a team.  ]]> 2019-04-29 14:30:53 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355032744 dtorresis381 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033540 A difficult time in my life that created darkness or a negative paradigm was when my 7th grade social studies teacher would pick on the class. Not specifically me but the whole class. I did the wrong homework one time but someone was also absent and did the right homework. My teacher ripped it up and called me out for it. I was embarrassed the kids laughed and it was terrible. I disliked going to school more than I already did to that school. I overcame this by just ignoring everyone who said something or touched me or anything. The teacher lied to my mother and acted like it never happened. After that I felt stronger because when she would start with the class I dozed off and it helped a lot. And too the bullies I walked away. My experience did not have a connection with Zebra because I don't have any similar experiences but this is one of the most difficult experiences I had and it only happened 1 year ago.]]> 2019-04-29 14:32:28 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033540 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033558 One of the times I experienced a difficult time in life, lasted for a couple years, in fact over 80% of my entire life. It put me in a really depressed position for a while to the point I wasn't excited living my life. My school was horrible, they graded us unfairly, they made life hell with bullying and not even caring for us. They's scare us all the time, not follow NYC standards, and give work under grade level. It put my life in horror, and I was getting bullied so much and it was NOT a good experience all my life for over 9 years. I experienced horror just like zebra had. The school had many people that bullied, and there was nothing the principal has done about it, and it was mainly just ''Report to my office'' and the teachers didn't know how to teach properly, no text books]]> 2019-04-29 14:32:31 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033558 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033636 A point in my life when I experienced a negative paradigm was when my grandma passed away. This didn't exactly effect me as much as the rest of my family since I was very young. This tragedy sent my family into a negative attitude. Short and cutoff answers to questions, gloomy faces, having trouble sleeping. This was only passed by everyone sticking together and supporting each other. This situation can correspond to Zebra's situation when Zebra lost his ability to run. Zebra felt empty, he was unfocused, and cutoff. Very similar to how my family acted after my my grandma died.]]> 2019-04-29 14:32:40 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033636 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033758 A difficult time in my life that created darkness or a negative paradigm was when I was younger and my great grandfather passed away. I was in the first grade so I was 6 I think. I didn't cry but i was sad cause my mother and my grandmother had that look on their faces that I've never seen before. It would be considered one of my difficult times especially since i was so young. It didn't really create as much trauma compared to my family but to this day it does take a special place in my heart because it was hard to believe that he was really gone. So, honestly their would be some connections with Zebra and I because we both lose something that was important to us to didn't relies that it was that important until it was gone permanently. ]]> 2019-04-29 14:32:57 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355033758 https://padlet.com/brizard4/7agpbgmrhmp0/wish/355034666 An a time when I experienced difficult time in my life and it created a darkness or negative paradigm, is when I went to get groceries with my mom and I loved going to store with my mom or any other family members.I was 12 years old at that time and i was waiting in the line with my mom to pay the groceries we bought, but when it was our turn my mom went to go get other things that she have forgotten . And it was so awkward for me because I was waiting in the line for about 5 minutes and people that were behind me were, annoyed that they had to wait. Now I don’t love going to the store because of that. There is some kind of connection between me and Zebra because he use to love running but after he got hit by a car he could run anymore because of his leg, and this relates to me I use to love going to the store and now I don't because I don't want to annoy the people behind me if that thing happens again.

It was very hard to handle because in talk ed t him basically everyday. I learned to get over it but he's still in my head.

And those experiences that I experienced, I was very sad and I cried a lot that the pet I loved very much and played with him, spent all the time and then one day he was gone. Grandmother with grandfather told me that he died due to the fact that he was already really old.
