Vietnam was a French colony and like in most colonies, the natives (Vietnamese people) were not treated right; Ho Chi Minh, that later became north Vietnam leader, asked for help to western countries, which was denied.

It is quite surreal that one can survive for two years in the wilderness. On the rafts that drifted from Panfilo de Narvaez’s ship, there were many people who did not survive. Those people became weak and they lost their minds. The amount of people remaining was four in a year, and one of the four was Cabeza de Vaca. Then that leads to the question: How did Cabeza de Vaca survive? Cabeza de Vaca survived because of his success as a healer, his wilderness skills, and most importantly his respect for Native Americans.

Suddenly I noticed the wrench was in my hands, my 6 teeth scattered around the floor. Jamison again walked me back to my room. She sat me down on my bed and asked me, “Kelley what happened back there ,why would you rip your own teeth out.” I said to her in my voice that was filled with cotton “It it it did it to me the girl, the man, the thing did it it not me”. Like any sensible person she didn't believe me. That morning I was ordered to be put in a straight jacket, in a large cushion room, and be hand fed every 3 hours.

I walked out of the door into the long hallway and began to walk around the asylum.I saw a large window

That room was a bit strange. It was very spacious and there were many sword-wielding statues on the left and right wall. On the other end of the room, there were many pictures drawn, perhaps depicting some kind of story. Such place was not unfamiliar with me. I had encountered many rooms like that one on other tombs and pyramids. Therefore, I shouldn’t feel anything strange. However, that room was a bit different.

It is an unusually cold morning in February. My alarm clock goes off around 6:00 AM. I lay there for a moment, dreading the long day ahead. As soon as I build up enough will, I drag myself out of bed and hop in the shower. The hot water feels wonderful since it is about 30 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Unwillingly, I get out and put on my plain maroon T-Shirt, ripped blue jeans, and black converse. After I brush my hair and put on a small amount of makeup, I grab my keys and head out the door at about 6:30 AM. As I am driving, I notice that the roads are strangely barren and empty. I brush it off and blame it on the gloomy and miserable conditions outside.
