It is incredible how much this speech relates to The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. Esperanza learns the same thing throughout the book, an overcomes many obstacles through her big dreams and, eventually, desire to help others.

This was inspiring; from the love letter she opens with to proclaim her love for New York, to her ending encouragement in "incessant optimism"... wow I'm just in awe of all the "emotions" I now have.

I love you. Unfortunately, I'm stuck attending this joke of a school next year. Can't wait to transfer out.

I'm reading her memoir and found this video. God she makes more sense in her writings, definitely. I am shocked.
