Terrible Accident
I have a huge family. I'm the oldest of 5 girls. We are often surrounded by aunts, uncles, and cousins. When I was 9 years old, I saw my sister Baillie get hit by a car. That day I realized how much I loved my family, and became highly aware how suddently they can be taken from you. -
Volleyball
My family is very active. We are always outside playing soccer, baseball, or some sort of sport. I like playing all sports, but I never played volleyball untill seventh grade. I joined our volleyball team, and learned I was really good at it. Since then i've become very competitive, and i'm always in a gym . -
My first Job
Since I was little, I always needed to have money. I wanted many things, and those things were never handed to me. I always had to do a chore for cash. So as soon as I could, I got my first job. I became a housecleaner, and since then I have never been without a job, -
My first paycheck
Before my first week at work, I had never worked so much in my life. I wasn't in school, so I worked from early in the morning, till late at night. Almost seven days a week. When I got my first paycheck I learned that If I wanted a lot of money, I was going to have to work a lot. I learned how to save, and not spend anything I worked for. I spend my money very wisely now because of it. -
My first road trip
After a ton of saving, me and my bestfriend took our first roat trip to California. That was the first time in my life I did whatever I wanted for a whole entire week. It was scary. but more exciting. I learned that I like my freedom, and really didn't want to listen to what anyone said again. -
Trip to California
My road trip to California was the first time I have ever been anywhere outside of Arizona. I had never seen the beach before. I didn't realize how different a state away could be. Since that trip, I go back every year to visit the ocean. I also have traveled to Ohio, Nevada, and Colorade since. There are so many places I want to go. -
Arrested
I use to have a lot of friends. They were all different, and liked doing different things. I didn't care what I did, as long as it was exciting and new. One exciting thing I use to like do was go into abandonded buildings, and old malls. I liked how scary they looked. When I got arrested for it, I never did it again. I realized there were some people who I couldn't be friends with, Most of them didn't learn from that expierence. -
Step-Dad
In 2014 I met my step-dad. We moved in with him. It was the first time in a long time our family was sort of normal. My life has changed for the better. Our family shares a lot of laughs now. I was very weary of the sittuation at first, but learned to embrace change, -
Moving Day
A little before my 19th birthday, I moved out of my parent's house for the first time. It was very cool at first. I liked paying my own bills, and doing what I wanted all the time. After a little why I wasn't only paying my part of the bills, I was paying my roomates. Moving in with someone I had only known for a short term was not a good idea. Rushing to leave is also never a good idea. -
Mia
In July, I found out I was pregnant! This event changed my whole life. I could no longer be selfish. I realized school was most important, as I need a job that makes more money. I was just not finding anything without a hischool diploma. I know what I want to do for the next few years, and is to be able to provide everything and more for my daughter,
