Writing today is not what it was 100 years ago, throughout the use of technology such as phones, laptops, and various apps; many words have been fabricated and etched into everyday communication.

    Where I'm From Mona Hosseini I'm from bright blue skies, and bike riding with my friends. Racing to see who can go faster. I'm from raking leaves in the warm Autumn sun, and jumping on the pile with my brother. I'm from swimming in the cold clear water of my pool, with the blazing sun beaming down on my face. I'm from traveling around the world with my family. I'm from a different place, culture, language. From the dirty roads of Iran to the brick roads of Berlin. I'm from the Eiffel Tower
