Here's the deal...
I got straight A's.
I worked hard to get these grades but I don't feel comfortable.
I feel like this is not who I'm suppose to be.
I feel I did too much.
I am afraid all my friends are going to make fun of me, that they will begin to call me "the nerd."
They already make fun of me because I don't play sports, and I hang out with the Asians during lunch.
But who says that I have to behave a certain way?
Whoever said that Chicanos aren't suppose to succeed in school or that the boys need to play sports or that Hispanics could only hang out with Hispanics.?
I get so mad and confused, I don't know what to do.
- What should I do ?
- Should I ignore all my friends and do what I feel or should I do what everyone expects me to do?
