I can't even get a job at McDonals.

At least DACA worked out for many of us, but some unfortunately were left out. But even with DACA, I still feel like an outcast; but at least now my life is much better and, yes, it is a lot better than it would have been back in my country. Better believe that.

I am not done dreaming. We have other opportunities to make something of ourselves. However, it is true that some people do succeed in their own countries. My cousin's family was extremely poor, but he managed to become a millionaire. He is an actual self-made millionaire in our country, while I am sitting in the US still waiting to graduate and looking for measly job.
