Metal music in the background. A u-haul truck in the border, the sun in nowhere to be seen. My family in the car behind the u-haul truck looking excited, terrified, and confused. I look about nine years old. I’m in Ms. Eddy’s class, years after the greatest change of my life. I sit in her class reflecting about what my life has gone through, where I am compared to where I was, and I want to keep going in this path. I get home still thinking, still listening to music, listening to the changes in the songs that go from Metallica riffs to Jagger asking Angie to keep moving forward but, should I keep moving forward in this path? My dad seems tired of having to work two jobs to support this family yet, there is a smile in his face. The next scene would be in my room with books sitting in front of me but my eyes travel from the textbook the my guitar, and back to my textbook, and then they look at the time, then they look back at the textbook. What would I pick?
I consider that to be the first 15 minutes of my life because they would mirror my life decisions, the different experiences that I have gone through and it would thoroughly set the plot of, what is he going to choose?
