My Life: How it Fell Apart
My name is Jake Rebello. I was born on November 24th I’m told that everyone was so excited for me to come into this world. Especially my mom her and I always had a special bond. She was always my undisputed best friend I got along best with her we were inseparable. And whenever I look in the mirror I always see her I have Middle Eastern skin identical to hers and we have the same nose and eyes and definitely the same smile. Oh that smile I saw it so many times it would always make me happy to know that I could make my momma laugh. I was always special to her. Fast forward to 4th grade I was always brutally made fun of because since I was always around my mom, my dad was always working, I got along better with girls rather than boys. By the end of 4th grade I got my first nickname Gacob instead of Jacob. I was always made fun of because I was supposedly gay but no one ever made an attempt to ask me if I was or not. I remember every day after school I would hold my tears in all day so I could come home and cry and everyday my mom would scoop me up and hug me and tell me it was okay and that whatever they said didn’t matter while I was home because she loved no matter what and she would always have tears in her eyes because I could tell that it hurt her that I was so badly made fun of I always knew that she would always be there for me and she was up until I turned 12 my dad’s business shut down and left both my parents without jobs so my mom got a job with the army as a crime scene investigator and 6 months after that she was always on trips all across the country for cases and classes a year after that she left went to Georgia telling us in a year we would all be together again and living there one year to the month she called my dad and told him she wanted a divorce

Stevie Wonder's Song Analysis

This album was released on September 28, 1976 and the record consists of different combinations of genres. Songs featured in the album have genres that ranged from R&B to Instrumental Jazz or Pop. I would classify “Isn’t She Lovely” and “Love’s in Need of Love Today” as R&B because of the instrumental beat. On the other hand, songs like “Contusion” fit into the Instrumental Jazz genre…
