American Desgin

My father said he wanted to be a citizen. He is tired of all the violence. He says that this country has a lot of bad things. For example, gangs, and people robbing house; that's why my dad does not like living in this neighoodbor. He wants to move away because he does not want to see people die.

He wishes that undocumented people be able to find good job and have a nice place to live for the rest of their life and be sent back to mexico. Immigrants are here to fing good jobs to support themselves and to be someboby in this world and have a better life.

My mother wishes to got a good education her self because she wnt to be a teacher to tech other kids to better citizern and want her family to be together.




They say dreams never do come true...

but they are wrong, I say they do
I dream of violence, I dream of hurt
I dream of children , they live in dirt
I dream of you , I dream of me
I dream of me
I dream of how this was never meant to be
I dream of my feelings , Idream of my thoughts
I dream of these things,I dream of them lots
I dream of my loved ones, I dream of the dead
I dream of these thought, exploding my head
I dream of you yelling, I dream of you crying
I dream of you hiding ,I dream of you lying
I dream of you hurting, I dream of you shutting me out of your life
I dream of the of the only one I can trust,Idream of my knife.
they say dreams never do come true,
but they are wrong,I say they do.

A short introduction to Mari


Something that I have done that no one in class has is:

This summer, for my 15th birthday, I went to Hollywood, CA. Me and my whole family went to a custom party where we I hung out with Spiderman, Harry Potter, and other cool peeps. Sorry, not the real actors : ( booooo! But I did get to meet George Lopez... from a far. hehe! I also went to Disneyland, yeah!!! It was a great summer/birthday gift.



Three adjectives to describe me
  • Mischievous
  • Emotional
  • Outgoing/Friendly




My name


My father named me Mariaelena after his older sister (my aunt), because he liked the name and he thought she was special.

The website Behind the Name says that my name means

Maria: "sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", and "wished for child". However it was most likely originally an Egyptian name, perhaps derived in part from mry "beloved" or mr "love".
Elena: means "torch" or "moon"
