I wrote this and I want your opinion! What Being Myself Means to Me~ Thailer H. D

Being myself used to be a distant thought to me,
As a child I wanted to make everyone else happy,
And I ignored what I wanted who I was,
When I hit puberty I felt wrong and uncomfortable,
Later I grew my first crush on a girl, her name was Precious,
When I came out to my Dad he rejected the idea I could be anything but his straight cisgender pink loving daughter,
How wrong he was to assume I’d stay the same forever,
I began to dress more conservatively refusing to let people see the body I was producing,
I thought makeup would make me feel happier,
I believed I just wasn’t pretty enough that I was ugly,
I got my first short haircut when I was 13,
When we moved to Headland I got stares,
Then 2 days after being there I was in the school talent show,
Singing about the bullying I faced in elementary school,
Then the bullying started,
6th graders chanted ‘Crybaby’ at me and people called me a lesbian because of my haircut,
No one there NO ONE knew I was bisexual,
So I grew my hair out like the coward I am,
I let other people opinion’s get to me,
Now after 4 years of cowardice and hiding I’m done,
I’m happy to to be gay,
I’m happy with my short hair,
I’m happy to be me because being me,
Means the world to me.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

i go to the store and buy some cheese,suddenly there was akward silence.   out of no where comes a ninja, and he takes an apple, and chokes the cashier, until he passes out.   the disapeared in a puff of smoke.   the cashier went to the doctor, and everything was fine again.   they all lived happily ever after without anymore ninjas.

the end

go to buy cheese= exposition

akaward silence= rising action

ninja chokes the cashier= climax

cashier goes to the doctor= falling action

they live happily ever after= resolution
