Describe a significant person and their importance to you.
You know the saying "You don't know what you've got till it's gone"? Actually, I'm finding that out as I write. Today is the first day where I will no longer be able to see my best friend. I woke up this morning to the sun shining in my face thinking that it would be a normal day but couldn't help to notice the photo of him up against my wall and how it soon hit me that he wasn't here anymore. As I kept on thinking why I felt so many undefined emotions, it occurred to me that a piece of me, Alejandro D. would leave an impression on my life that no one else could imitate or replicate. Not only was Alejandro an incredible friend but he was a leader, a role model, and my inspiration to become the best dancer that I knew I could be. Not knowing Alejandro yet, I began dancing in the eighth grade as an experiment to losing weight but then came to realization that dance had become something I was actually good at. As the year commenced I began to work real hard towards the audition for the school of my dreams, New World School of the Arts and prayed to get accepted as an incoming sophomore. New World would soon be the place where I would befriend Alejandro. Before I knew it, my dreams had become a reality where I would then learn th
At such a young age he has created stepping stones for so many to follow. He made me believe that I was an artist who loved to perform so I could express to people what I lived for.

From painters to musicians to vocalists to thespians we all had opened up to one another and saw what we all had in common, the arts. All those undefined emotions have perished as I now see how much he and I have grown and learned. As the month had progressed I began to meet a whole new array of friends besides dancers. As I woke up the following day to the sun shining in my face once again, I couldn't help to think how joyous I was to see his picture on my wall. And he smiled and said "Thanks man, you too. The first week of school had finally ended where I was now learning and growing amongst new friends and dancers. Even though it was only one evaluation from the teachers I would be with the next 3 years of my life, I felt so bruised and disappointed in myself. He had left all his Miami friends and family with a sense of hope and faith that we all could achieve our dreams like he has. Dance began to become so militant and unchallenging. Classes would become so purposeful with him being in it as I quickly saw what I had to work with and how much stronger my work ethics needed to be. Someone else had found that love for me.
