HOW IT TO BE COLORED ME:CARLOS M

How it feels to be colored me

I am Mexican American and I'm glad i am what i am. Growing up i was made fun of my color but i know that people just joke cause i started it first. I don't mind if people discriminate me cause there will always be someone doing that. I really don't consider east la ghetto but i do notice that i do look kind of white in a Mexican neighborhood. I feel good with what i look like or what color i am. it wouldn't matter what color i am as long as I'm living.

Sometimes the way you look makes a good impression or bad impression. when i go to stores i always get talked in English but Ive seen that others get talked in Spanish. my white skin makes people treat me differently but i act like a Mexican so then peoples attitude changes towards me. I am very comfortable with who i am and I'm proud to be white skinned but Mexican. It feels good to be the way i am and i love the way people treat me(except ms cheby she doesn't treat me right she hates me..... just joking)
