Students of Chicago

After talking to my mom the other day about how uplifting the web site "Humans of New York" is, I realized it's kind of similar to the submissions I read for StudentsXpress—a little snippet of life in the city, told through one person's eyes. It's really neat to get to know Chicago's youth just a little bit through their writing and drawings. 

So, now, as a spinoff of StudentsXpress, I present....

STUDENTS OF CHICAGO

Right now I'm really into famous people. I'm going to talk about Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is a basketball player, a baseball player and a basketball coach. I like Michael Jordan because I'm a basketball player myself and I want to be as good as him. And I'm going to work hard so I can be like him.
