Birthday
This was the day that I was born in a hospital in Santa Ana, California at nine twenty in the evening. -
Everything got taken away
This is a day I will never forget. This was the day that my siblings and I got taken away from my family. This is a time of A year where I regret having have said anything, because for the longest time everyone in my family thought I was A disgrace, including family from Mexico who I didn't even know blamed me for everything. -
First time at Disneyland
This was one of the greatest days of my life that I could have experienced. Eventhough it wasn't with my family I had fun with Orangewood staff and peers that day, we got to go on almost all of the rides that day. My favorite rides that day were splash and space mountain. -
Day my uncle Ignacio passed away
This was the day when my uncle died, a day that I regret, and A day that could have been prevented but he passed away from his alcohol addiction. He started to drink again shortly after we got taken away from my parents and all he ever wanted was to be one happy family again but it never happened. -
Came out as Andy to everyone but my family
This was the day I realized who I truly was, I realized that I wasn't comfortable being Carolina anymore. Especially with what happened in my past I felt better being Andy the boy inside me. People just don't truly know me right now. I didn't come out to my family about being Andy because I was afraid and still am afraid of them just shutting me out of the family just like they did to my older sister, but all I want to be is proud of who I am and I want everyone to know that I am Andy.
