• “Amarillo, Texas. Ah, North Texas, up in the panhandle. Twenty-two. In Huntsville, Texas. I am going to Sam Houston State University. I’ll be starting my junior year in the fall. Yeah, I have a younger sister that’s nineteen, and a brother that’s twelve and a brother that’s six. And my parents are divorced, so I have lived with my mom and my dad, my step-dad since I was five. So I’m not very close to my real dad. Well my mom is white and my dad was Hispanic and since I didn’t really get to know him, I probably am the most whitest Mexican you’ve ever met in your life. No. No, I don’t even like Mexican food.”
