Story of My Life- Dulciana Clayburn

  • Born

    Born
    This event is important to me because I was born on that day. Otherwise I wouldn't be alive today. ;) What's also cool about my birthdate is that my mother and I have the same birthday.

    The Beginnings

  • R.I.P.

    R.I.P.
    This date is very important to me because it was the day that I lost my one and only father. When I was younger, I really didn't realize what death is until now. I can't wait for the time where I will be able to see my father again.
  • Broke my Arm.

    Broke my Arm.
    This is actually a pretty hilarious experience that I went through. When I was younger, my friend and I were playing our made up game known as "Cheerleader". I fell off my friends back, and broke my arm. I was rushed to the hostpital, and had to get surgery the following day. I got to choose a pink cast. I also had to learn how to write with my right hand. Since then, I've had a scar on my right wrist that everybody notices.
  • R.I.P.

    R.I.P.
    This is a memorable event to me. When my dad past away, my Uncle Joe became a father figure to me and 5 other siblings. He was truly dear to us. When he passed away is was most hardest hardship we had to endure and overcome as a family. He, along with his wife, died in a automobile collision. However, there's no need to feel discouraged, I have the hope of seeing him soon. :)
  • Baptism

    Baptism
    The most exciting, and happiest day of my life. I got baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses when I was 13 years old. When I was first introduced to this religion, I was really skeptical and unappreciative of this type of organization. Once I matured, I realized that this religion was not so bad after all, and I grew to enjoy it.
  • Family Vacation

    Family Vacation
    This was an awesome event. It was my first time on a cruise ship. It was called "Carnival." There were so many things to see, and so many things to do. My family and I had the time of our lives!
  • Driver's License

    Driver's License
    At the age of 17, I finally obtained my own, personal Driver's License. I was really shocked that I passed the first time. I was super nervous, but I had faith in myself that I would be able to pass.
  • First Job

    First Job
    When I tell people what my first job was, they are pretty astonished. I was a Bee keeper at a raw honey farm. It was a pretty interesting occupation, and a delicious one at that! Sadly, I had to quit for personal reasons.
  • Saddest Day of My Life

    Saddest Day of My Life
    The most depressing day of my whole entire life. Knowing that I am no longer apart of my religion really hurts me. I have so much regret and guilt for past mistakes I committed. However, there's this statement that brings me positivity: "You can't change the past, but you can change the future." Everyday of my life, I will try to always do the right thing in God's eyes.
  • Senior!!!

    Senior!!!
    I can't believe that I am officially a Senior! Through the past 11 years, I've experienced new things, overcame trials, built long-lasting relationships with teachers, and independent. I couldn't accomplish anything without the support of many people. I appreciate all the time and energy they used to help me fulfill my hopes and dreams.
