DAKOTA RUNNINGFOX SPEARS
"Hello my name is Dakota and I am a proud Native American. My mother is Lakota and my father is Crow, but they met under normal circumstances in Montana which I will tell you about a little late. I will first briefly introduce myself. So, I'm 18 years old and probably too old for this camp, but I cannot ignore the fact that I actually like being here. I was born December the 22nd - right as the day turned and the sun got more power over the night. I have had a good childhood with a fine school and a normal hard life at a ranch. Of course I could have chosen to stay at home and help my parents, but they insisted that I went to school. I attended a normal elementary and middle school, but I went to High School in a Crow reservation – even though I did not live there. My father's family is still habitants at that place, so I was not a complete stranger.
Growing up on a ranch made my selection of females very small. It was not everyday that you met a girl when you helped your parents with the animals. But I have after all been on a few dates at some different Fairs or Amusement Parks. Besides playing Spanish guitar which my grandfather told me how to play, I also like to play drums – simply because it is in my blood to let my heart beat in the rhythm of the drums. I would say that I play both parents equally well, but I I've begun to prefer the guitar. I don't know why actually. Besides music, I also love to attend Native American Ceremonies. I love Powwows and I never miss one. I also like horseback riding and I've been fond of rodeo when I was younger. But now I am a bit more into the modern stuff like motorbikes and fixing cars. And what I love too is to eat French fries, cheese, baked beans and bacon – I know it may sound a bit stereotypical cowboy like and I know that it is extremely unhealthy, but seriously... That food is my total favourite. Oh and I love bread as well – the darker the better.
So, let me tell you about my parents and how they got so much success. My mother was a girl at a Lakota (Sioux) reservation when she found a white husband and moved to Montana with him. But their marriage never held because that idiot was drinking and it quickly became too much for my mum. She met my father who worked at a ranch at a summer ball and they quickly fell in love. My father's supervisor was a good man, and he offered them the guest house where they could live. My mother also began working at the ranch, but it did not take long before their luck shined down at them. The first time my parents played anything – they played lotto and won a good amount of money. It was enough to start slowly on their own and with help from the nice family they had worked for, they began to develop the ranch. I grew up to the hard and also rather exciting life at the ranch – I helped my parents a lot when I had the time for it – because I also had the school on the side. Last year and this year had been very good for us in Montana, and they figured that they could afford to send me to a band camp to have some fun – so here I am."
