Where I am From
  California By Mariam
I am from a bigger family who doesn’t care about each other. from the feeling of lonely but also of hope. I am from amepela from barbecue fish and beans I am the lonely child who lost her parents when she was a kid like the mother who raised her and died when she was 3 and 2 years old. I am from California where I was born for the second time and Oakland where I found friends and new family. I am from ANNE­-christine and Godatse who both raised me in different ways. I am from Flor, my foster mother who loves me so much. I am from chicken,hot dogs and rice. from Christmas I am productive, particular and consistent.
