====I wish I was rich ! ﻿  Ever since I have come to America I have been very poor. The rent on my apartment is almost up and I have very little money. I fight to have //**TWO**// meals a day !  I will go broke and start to starve soon !  One day I was walking down the street when I saw something I had never seen before. It was a community garden! I knew exactly what I was going to do. ====

====At the store I have noticed that my favorite food pineapple, has prices that are sky rocketing. It must be very expensive to get. I will try to grow pineapple !  That day I went to the gardening store and spend the last bit of money on pineapple seeds. It might be worth it!  The next day I went to the garden and planted the seeds. I borrowed all the tools needed to plant the seeds. I turned the dirt, I plowed the dirt, and then I put the seeds in the dirt. I borrowed the planting tools from was named Curtis. He was a black man in his early twenties. He had a sign on his garden that said "Lateesha's Tomatoes. Maybe that was his mother. Any way he was very nice and polite. ====

====The next day I noticed something  weird about the garden. All the races were split into sections. I had noticed I had put myself right in the middle of them all. I didn't know what to do so I kept to myself. I was walking by a couple days after I planted them and there was a couple green buds. I was amazed. They actual were growing. I went over to see them and a Indian man came over and asked what I was growing. I just turned my back and walked away. I didn't like other races. The next day Curtis came over and asked me why I did that to the man. I told him "I don't like other races." He told me "the people at the garden were very nice." I went over to the man and told what I was growing. He told me "you could get a lot of money." I told him "that is what I am hoping for!" <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">I learned to get to know people before you judge them. ====
