I am me


I am the child born to loving parents. I am the child with his hands high calling out to his mother. I am the boy running down that street in the continent of Africa. I am the boy whose parents took him out of that African street and placed him in the land of the free. I am the teenager in a new high school hoping to find new friends. I am that teenager hoping to do well. I am the new kid who just move in 11th grade to a new school hoping I Will not miss the friends I just made but I do. I am the the teenager in his senior year struggling to get all done. I am the student whose world seems to be crumbling down. I am the student filled with great fear of what's next. I am that student who despite in my present predicament sees the chances of success. I am that student who will do all to succeed. I am me the ever self-cautious and hopeful individual with a consant changing environment. I am me Nelson Idahosa the kid, teenager and student living in an environment that is about to change.
