A little about me.

Hey guys :) Well, I guess I'm going to tell you guys a little about me and my life!

I was born and raised here in Santa Maria. I know, pretty boring. I'm blessed to live with both of my caring, hardworking parents. I have an older brother who is graduating this year, and a little sister who is going to start pre school soon. Growing up, I was EXTREMELY shy. I wouldn't talk to anyone. I would whisper to my parents if we were ever out in public places. My parents then decided to try me out in dance classes. I came out of my shell and love it. I've been dancing for about 5 years. I'm also a cheerleader. This is my 5th year being a cheerleader and I plan on doing it for the rest of my years throughout high school.

 In elementary, I always had good grades. I was actually in the GATE program. Then, I was in an English honors class in 7th grade. I didn't have a good grade in it, though. I began going downhill with my grades. I was hanging out with the wrong people. But, I got my act together and tried my best in school, and I still am. 

I met my best friend in 5th grade. She lives across the street from me. I know, cool right? Hahah. We fight a lot, laugh a lot, cry a lot, and love each other a lot. Our friendship is a rollercoaster! We've been through so much together and have shared so many memories. But, at the end of the day, she'll always be my best friend.

 High school sort of gave me a reality check. I realized who my true friends are. I never really believed people when they told me that stuff. But, I had to find out the hard way. But, friends come and go. Only the true ones stay. 

Once I get older, I want to be a 911 operator. I know, I know, it's a stressful job. But, it's something that interests me. I may even get to save someones life! I have a bucket list, and I plan on achieving everything on it. From traveling somewhere far with my husband, to bunji jumping in Las Vegas. I have a big future planned ahead of me. And I'm ready for everything that life has to throw at me. :)
