Assimilate

 While assimilation happens all around us not many people fully understand the term completely. Assimilate means to take in and incorporate as ones own. In simple terms it means to absorb and integrate people, ideas, or culture into a wider society or culture. Assimilation is in everything. As in the play A Raisin In The Sun. One of the plays main characters, Ruth Younger shows a massive amount of worry towards assimilation. Being the only color people in a whole entire building makes Ruth afraid of assimilation. In the play, I believe they use assimilation as a weakness. They use it to show the difference of people and how they are weak.

  Assimilation happens all around each and everyone of us. People assimilate by adapting or taking in a different culture then their own. They do it to fit into society. I believe that at one point we must have assimilated in some way.For in stint learning the language (idioms and slang included), dress the same way, listen to the same music, watch the same movies and shows, and , read the same magazines and books as mainstream society.

Family or My desires

My family or my individual desires, what is more important you ask? To me my family is and will always be more important than my own desires. My family has always been there for me when I needed them or ever felt alone. I know this because family is all you have at the end. My family is the first thing that I think of whenever anything comes up. I put my individual desires last. Losing loves ones in my life has taught me that life is much better when family is your main focus. Knowing you can lose a love one gives you a much bigger reason to put your families desires first. My family’s desires come first to me because they are that important to me. Why put your own desires first? To me that sounds a little too selfish. Your Family will always be by your side no matter what. Plus knowing you think about your family before yourself makes you feel great. My family deserves to come before my own desires. Just remember without family, what do you have?

the American Dream

The American dream is a dream many people have and want to accomplish. The American dream is that anyone in the US can be successful through hard work and dedication. Many people have that hunger for accomplishing the American dream.The American dream paints a  wonderful and amazing picture in many peoples minds. The whole reason of a dream like that is to gain desire to become a successful person. The dream gives people hope, desire, and force to become something life. Someone who manges to achieve his/her version of the American dream is said to be " living the dream".

My American dream is to manage to graduate from high school and head straight to college and begin my career. I want to become someone and reach my goals of becoming a plastic surgeon. I want to become a professional plastic surgeon. My dream is not only to become what i desire but also to be able to have what I want. I want to be able to make my living and have money left over to spend anyway id like. I want to reach my goals by being a determined person. I want to reach not only my goals but also my version of "The American Dream".
