    About to declare English Major. Basically I'm aiming to get into a Master's Program called TESOL which qualifies you to Teach English as a Second Language to Other Learners. I spoke to my advisor about which major would be most appropriate, she told me to just get a bachelor's. Figured I'd go with English since I've always wanted to improve my writing. Once I get into the program and graduate I'll be able to teach English to all of my vatos and foreign peeps so that we can take the U.S. back from the white people. A revolution is coming...

    No whites shall be spared

    Nah, it's Spanish. I was born in Peru but came over to the states like 2 weeks after I turned 6. I was in ESL classes myself, didn't know a bit of English and now people can't even tell its not my native tongue. Im extremely thankful for the classes too, idk where'd I'd be had the public school system not offered them. My parents sure as h--- wouldn't have been able to afford it back then. I wanna pay back the favor in a way, help the kids that are in the same position I was once in. Adults too, I've worked a few jobs now and theres always these dudes who are smart and hard workers, but get seen as ignorant just because they don't speak English. I'm always just like, "wow, if you spoke English you could probably be a plumber, or do your own thing". As opposed to having to work for other dudes who cash off of them. Lol idk, I kinda just want to make a difference I guess.
