I finally landed a job at a reputable bank as a teller and this is only the beginning...


April 2 I passed my Road Test and I now possess a Drivers License and a form of identification. I met a lot of people in my shoes, those who support me and those who love me regardless of my status in this country.


Today, I'd just like to tell all of you that are waiting to be approved, that your life will completely flip upside down after DACA. The moment you recieve your State ID is when it will hit you and you will realize what you have accomplished. Yesteday, I went to see Spring Breakers (Meh, okay movie I guess) and I got asked for ID the first time since receiving it and I presented it, that moment was one of the best moments ever for me, instead of taking out a bulky pamphlet looking like book (passport) I simply took a card like every other person and went right through and sat through a movie that had breasts displayed every 30 seconds. Great experience but the story is meh.


Anyways, no big deal for other people but for US, the people recieving DACA, it is a major sense of acceptance in our community. One of the things people seek in life is the feeling of belonging somewhere. You may think of it or you may not but its in your concious, you just want to be normal like everyone else and belong. You want to drive. You want to go to the bank and withdraw money from your own account without having to show School IDs and veryfying 10 different things. You want to be able to go on long drives down to Florida. You want to buy your own car, you want to feel like you actually are going to be acknowledged.


President Obama and several other politicians changed the lives of millions and he continues the hard work to change the lives of millions more. God bless them.


To all that have experienced things after DACA, please feel free to share your own experience.

To all who are waiting, hang in there and keep DREAMING. We are DREAMERS for a reason. You will get there as long as you keep those dreams alive! Good luck to you all!
