Prompt: Write about a time you didn’t feel like yourself.

 One time I didn´t feel myself when too many changes were happening in my life too quickly. I don´t remember what exactly was happening at the moment, it was too much. I do remember how I felt. I felt lost, confused, frustrated, and upset. I didn´t know what to do nor why those things were happening. Those emotions all together made me feel like I wasn´t myself or like if I didn´t know who I was at the moment.

Reflect on how your cultural heritage shapes your daily expectations, inspired by "Girl" by Jamaica Kincaid.

  Prompt Response:  My cultural heritage shapes my daily expectations a lot. As a Mexican woman, I am expected to know how to cook and clean or else no one will want me as a woman.  Summary: In "Girl" by Jamaica Kincaid, it is a passage written as a mother telling her daughter instructions on what to do and how to behave. Often repeating how she shouldn't shape herself into a "slut". Reflection:  This made me reflect on how parents or guardians often remind us on how to behave, how to do things, and what to do in certain situations.

Describe a time when you felt completely lost.

  Prompt Response:  One time I felt lost was when I lost my best friend. He recently left due to a discussion we had and is now gone from my life. The person I talked to day and night and did my everyday schedule with is now gone.  Summary: I am somewhat relieved that we are apart because I am now working on myself and focusing more on myself but that did affect me a lot. It's hard when someone that was a big part of your life leaves your life and it causes you to feel confused, lost, and upset. I couldn't eat for a couple weeks right and I couldn't sleep either out of that gut feeling and emptiness.  Reflection:  I am now somewhat okay but I still look for him in everyone I talk to, I am happy that we are out of each other's lives to let each other heal and grow in life. I hope everything is okay for him and much more. I am also growing and figuring out stuff I didn't even know about myself! Lots of improvements and achievements I have discovered in myself.
