  im on the same suituation as christian my parents brought me to the U.S when i was 12 i came legally to the U.S but my parents desided to stay and reach for a beter future so we over stayed our visas, i graduated from high school this year (07). My biggest dream is to become a marine but since im undocumented i cant make my dream come true, so i highly support the DREAM ACT.

  I stronghly support the Dream act, but I been hearing this a little while now, hope they really do something about it not like the amnesti which was talked on for so long and at the end nothing was done and know is kind of forgotten. I came here when I was 4years old my mother decided to bring me and my brothers here after my father left us, in search of a better future, I went to school here my whole life, felt through the cracks and dropped out of high school in the 12grade and after beening an honor student for 2 years, one of the reasons was that I found out through my guidence counselor I could not attend college, but anyways later I had a baby girl and got my GED and now i am 20years old and work cleaning and my biggest dream is to attend college and follow my dreaamn. seeing my mother struggle gives me courage to carry on and find better ways for my daughter and provide so shell never grow up in half of the poverty that I have seen cause I do know what not having something to eat feels like, I will keep my hope up and hopefully all the people that are in the same situation as me keep their hope up and never put youre head down keep chasing that dream like the sailers an a boat did to always know what directin they shall follow.
