My Inspiration

 

    One day I went down the stair and saw my mom on the couch and I was so happy because I get to ask my question. I wanted to know about how I was when I was a toddler/ baby and I wanted her to tell me about Robby, so I asked mom. 
    “Okay, sure. When you were a baby you didn’t want people to touch you. When you were born you had low blood sugar and they had to draw blood from your feet because that made you associate touch with pain and didn’t like people hold you.” 
“Oh ok, that explains why I never like to be touched when I was a little kid right?” I said in surprise. 
"Yep. The only person who was able to hold you was your uncle PD. Do you remember seeing a picture of him?”
“Yes.” My uncle passed away when I was about 2 years old.
“When you were a toddler and you were crying. You would cry out Obbbbiiiee. People Thought that you were crying for me. But you were calling for Robbie and I would call upstairs.” She said in a singsong voice, “Robby your baby's calling you.”

    Robby was more of a nurturer than a brother to me. When our parents are at work he would take the parenting role with me and my other brother.

    Robby is my oldest brother. When he left for college, I was going to kindergarten and when he left I thought my world was ending. I would ask my mom and dad if we could go visit him once a week. We were only able to go visit him once every few months.

    Years later he dropped out of school to help his girlfriend with her schooling. He got married to his high friend Jessica. Had a baby a year later. A year after that they moved about 2,000 miles away from me to Phoenix, AZ.

    When I had my sweet 16 birthday party. The theme was royal blue and purple. That day my mom said to me "Robby is on a flight in for your birthday party today..."
"YAY, I will get to see him for a few da-" I am so happy to see my brother (Obbie)." but he will only be here today and he will leave tomorrow morning." I was a little sad about that but at Less, I will see him for a few hours I thought.

    When I got to the candles light ceremony part of the night. The second candle is for your sibling both of my brothers gave a little speech. In Robby's speech, he stated that "you were a pain in my butt..." I got mad that he would say that and wasn't going to l let him finish his speech. when I did he said, " But because of that I am a bitter father to my kid and my future kids." Everyone awwww at that even me.

    He will be 32 soon in October. He has 3 rambunctious boys Amri is 7, Ori is 3, and Kai is 1. They act just like him when he was their age. He is trying to finish his degree and he works full time. he is a busy dad and that means Robby and I are not as close as we were before.

Jordan Rivers - The Natural Grouch Face

Jordan Rivers The Natural Grouch Face     My father seems like a very stern man, but he truly is kind. Every time I see him, his face is stiff and looks almost as if he's glaring all the time. When near him, it's almost as if the wind near him gets colder and colder. Even so, behind that cold and strong look is a caring, kind, and a sarcastic joker.      On a warm, calm day during spring, my father and I decided to go to the mall to get me some more clothes. I look over at him and see him with his usual stiff, stern, annoyed face.     "Yo, Dad?" I asked hesitantly. "You good?" I've been with him since morning and I have not seen anything that would have made him upset.     "Yeah, Scrap, I'm chilling." He replies. "Want me to start yelling to make you feel better?" He says jokingly. I knew he wasn't lying since he used my nickname. He usually says my actual name when he's bothered.       He's the type of person that cha...

The Star Wars Fandom      Star Wars is perhaps one of the most popular and successful franchises of all time. Even if someone doesn't know much about Star Wars, the name is still recognizable and exposure to some sort of Star Wars media is almost inevitable. The Star Wars franchise is a collection of movies, TV shows (Figure 1), comics, and videogames that all take place in a galaxy far, far away and tells a connected story over a long period of time. The main storyline is referred to as the Skywalker Saga, stretching through nine movies in order from episodes one to nine, telling the tales and struggles of the force wielding Jedi, Sith, and Skywalker family. It's popularity exploded in 1977 when the first ever Star Wars film, A New Hope, debuted in theatres and kickstarted the Skywalker Saga. Despite the initial low expectations and many issues while filming, A New Hope ended up being one of the most successful movie releases to date. As more Star Wars movies and shows...

The Smilers Figure 1: Miley from a recent photoshoot   I have been a fan of Miley Cyrus ever since I was very young. I remember feeling a rush of pure excitement whenever watching her TV show, Hannah Montana. Later on in life, after her show TV ended, I found myself continuing to love everything that she did, whether it was music or starring in a movie. Over the years, not only has she become my all time favorite artist but someone that I admire and look up to. Miley Cyrus  started to gain a fanbase when she was very young.  She played as Hannah Montana /Miley Stewart in a popular TV show called Hannah Montana. According to Wikipedia,  Hannah Montana first aired in March of 2006 and received 5.4 million viewers (2021).This show was watched by many young people and she quickly gained a fanbase as Hannah Montana. Later, beyond the show, she began to release music as herself, Miley Cyrus. This is when she gained her fanbase called the Smilers. Her fanbase...
