"Now, when I first arrived to Arizona, I pictured your typical cactus with a plentiful of sand surrounding everything,but it's a little more than that. In fact , it's quite beautiful actually.
I've started school here at McLean High.
There's a variety of blacks,whites and Hispanics.
I myself distance myself from race and consider myself just human, but if we're going to be detailed here, I'm a Latin-American boy. My mother is from Nicaragua, my father is from Puerto Rico.
I'm 16 and living it indeed.5'7 with pretty decent tan skin.I'm quite a sight to see if I do say so myself, why ,who doesn't love some basic brown eyes and black hair? Fools is what I'd say.
Jokes aside, we can all agree we have our own perspective on what is appealing. I think that's what I'd call a little chunk of me. I won't bore you to death now.
Thank you."
I step of the podium, recollecting my breathe.

"Mommy am I your child?" My mom looked down and chuckled at me. "Of course you are Theo." She said continuing to cut the vegetables that I hated. "Then why do we have different skin?" I blurted. I was five at the time and I didn't know any better. "Who said that?" She asked looking at me concerned. She knew I wouldn't have thought that on my own. I was always perfectly happy with everything. "This kid Matt. He said his mommy thinks you're weird because we're two different skins." I said coloring in my book. "Well don't listen to what people say. Love doesn't discriminate." She told me sternly. I took her advice. Highest rank: #6 in interracial #2 in interracial-romance # 3 in sexualthemesComplete
