"I moved to the US when I was only 5. My parents and I had a very hard time adjusting to this new environment, especially my mom and I. It was, of course, intimidating, as we barely knew how to speak English. Everywhere I went, I always felt lost and out of place. I spent the early years of my school career not understanding anything and seeing my parents struggling with simple everyday tasks. I realized that I had to mature fairly quickly to become someone that could help my parents. I worked through the language barrier. Now, I do very well in school and I have taken on the responsibility of helping my parents break through the same barrier that I have." #humansofmaldenhigh

Sophomore Meghan Yip first joined the Blue and Gold to put her wild imagination and creativity to use. This year she is taking on a new position as a lead photographer for the newspaper. Yip considers herself a lover of the arts and anything art-related. Outside of school, she enjoys listening to Imagine Dragons, Halsey, Bastille, Twenty One Pilots, and Lorde, and sometimes even plays music herself on guitar, piano, and ukulele. She mainly reads young adult contemporary novels and even writes a few stories herself. While doing school work, Yip likes to put on Bob’s Burgers or Parks and Recreation on Netflix in the background. If she sets aside some free time, she watches her favorite movie, Whiplash. She hopes to put her artistic and creative skills to good use in the paper. View all posts by Meghan Yip
