Yeah, I mean, nobody would be the same after going through something like that. Definitely, it's a huge impact. It was an experience that was definitely pretty intense for all ESL students. Nobody felt safe for a long while.
Yes, but also I do want to give more colors, right? I love that your show focuses on the messiness of being human. Being messy is being multidimensional. But it was also an environment where there was so much support. There was so much friendliness there. And there was also so much opportunity. So it was very confusing. I'm not trying to say that experience itself is not heavy.

I don't feel lucky about that experience. And I mean, there was anger and all that. But in the meantime, the fuller context of that community was also quite a supportive community. So it was very confusing. It gave me the multidimensionality of the new country. I landed in... Everything's happening.

I always felt I had to keep my head down. Right. Especially as an immigrant, sometimes I feel that way even now, especially given the AI world we live in. I feel I need to keep my head down to do work. Of course, that particular event probably added a layer of complication, at least for a while. But it also taught me you have to stand up for yourself. It did open different insights to me.

Yes. Mrs. Savella was my math teacher. I got into calculus and then Persepolis High School doesn't have calculus BC. We only had AP calculus for AB. So he had to teach me during his lunch hour for BC. But this story you're talking about was earlier. It was during some pre-calculus stuff and it turned out I was using a broken calculator. Oh.

I love garage sales. I don't have time to go to garage sales, but I love it. Mr. Sabella was tough. He is a tough love kind of teacher. Even though I was ESL, I was this mousy girl. He didn't think I needed any extra.
