My First Time — I loved it!
 
I always looked forward to this moment. It finally happened, and it was an amazing feeling. All those times I had to show the green, poorly laminated, Mexican matrícula consular card that usually went like this:

-Can I see your ID?
-Oh, I only have this.
-Ohhhhkkkkkayyy.

For the first time last week, I was in a government office where I was requested to show my ID, and for the first freakin' time, I was able to show my CA state issued ID! Oh, that felt amazing not having to feel like wanting to hide under a desk because, and getting anxious because you fear encountering people who won't even know what a matrícula is — "Oh, a green card with Spanish on it??? Please have a seat right over there".

Some people speculated that we would grow complacent with DACA, and forget about the DREAM Act. I think it has been the opposite — DACA has shown us for the first time what legalization means, and has made us want the passage of the DREAM Act even more.

Im 20. went to an L store and showed my ID expecting the guy not to do math. He looked and asked what I wanted. Then he thought about it and asked for it again.

Him: Got ID?
Me: yeah here(took out my wallet all sly)
Him: Okay what do you want
Me: That (insert brand name)
Him: Can I see your ID again
Me: Sure(repeat wallet scenario less sly)
Him: You're not 21
Me: oh...(walk away)

I'm assuming you don't live in CA cuz if you are under 21 you get stripes and the whole thing is vertical.
