Parents
Mom and dad were together for ten years before they separated and got divorced. The both of them were very loving when my sister and I were younger.  But enough of the life story, I'm going to describe my mother.  Mom is a very loving person who loves anyone that doesn't get on her nerves, and as long as you get along with her she will get along with you.  She's also a very strong-hearted woman who pulls through anything that happens. My mom and I are best friends you can say because I share everything with her.  During the time my mom and dad were separated she had to take care of my younger sister and I all by herself for thre or four years before she met my step-dad.  My step-dad during the seven or eight years he was married to my mom had a child, but most of the time he's been locked up, and hasn't even been able to watch his own daughter grow up.  With my step-dad being locked up my mom and real dad got back together.

Siblings
I have three siblings but only two are alive. My brother who passed away when I was only one year old holds a very special place in my heart because he was the only brother I ever had. This impacted me because Adyn was a very special person to me. Even though I did not get to know him, i still love him very much, and he was very important to me for being my only brother.  If he was still alive he and I would have a great brother/sister relationship together.  I love my two sisters very dearly. One of them, her name is cierra, is my second to youngest sister.    There are times when she and I do not get along, but other times we don't fight, and everything should be how it should be.  But that's how my sisters are with one another.  With my baby sister Chante, she and I get along very well.  For some reason, I get along better with Chante then I do with Cierra.  The effect Chante has on me is that she shows me that she is a very strong person.  She also reminds me that it is okay for anyone to be a child at heart and it doesn't matter how old or young you are live life to the fullest.

What makes me sad
There are quite of few things that make me sad, but I'm going to name them all off. One thing that makes me sad is when my parents are always fighting over something small, and mom takes it to the next level and tries to break t off with my dad. Then he doesn't come over for a couple days because of what my mom would've told him.  Another thing that makes me sad is thinking about how many funerals my family and I have gone to since I was a baby to the age I am now.  They are all relatives too, not just friends of the family. Something else that makes me sad is knowing I have a brother, and i didn't get the chance to meet him or get to know him because he passed away from such a young age.  I rally can't think of anything else that makes me sad.

My strengths, talents, gifts(positive characteristics)
When I think about what I have that are strengths, talents or gifts there could be a few things that i can write about myself. One of my talents is that I am a pretty good basketball player. I have been playing basketball since I was in kindergarten.  Another strength is that I can be a pretty good writer in English class in school. I have been given compliments in the past on my writing, and the teachers would sometimes even keeps my papers as an example for the class.  I am also a good volleyball player when i don't get an attitude with the the coach or when I am in the mood to play good. I can also be a good advice giver to someone that really needs it.  All of my friends have told me that I am a good friend to them, and that they never want to lose me.  I do have some good characteristics, but i do too have my weaknesses.

Areas to work on- My limitations (weaknesses)
When I think about some of the weaknesses are I think about how much help I could use with them. One of my weaknesses is math, I am really not good in that subject, and i could use some real help with it.  I second weakness is not getting my school work done. Often I don't focus on anything and start slacking off, not doing my work.  Not doing anything had a bad affect because if I don't do my work then i will never get it done unless someone pushes me to do it.  Another weakness, that comes to mind is when I get mad at my little sister, and she gives me the puppy eyes.  I need to work on not giving in because Chante gets whatever she wants already, and she always gets away with it when she's with me.

Spiritual Beliefs
My family is mostly catholic.  But most of us don't go to church. I think we need to start going because there are some of us that need prayer.  When someone in my family gets married we have different way of celebrating weddings.  The parents both have to walk the bride and the groom down the isle.  My family doesn't have very big spiritual beliefs, but we do, on occasion celebrate what the Catholics do.  Sometimes my family can be different from others.

Define in detail, hat beauty is
There are plenty of wats that you can describe beauty.  Beauty is what brings out the personality of a person.  It is a serious thing.  Beauty can be a pain in my opinion because if a woman is getting ready for anything can take forever, burning herself doing her hair, messing up her makeup and having to start all over again.  If you're lucky, you can be beautiful inside and out.  I really don't know how else to describe beauty, but I know there are many ways it can be.

Define in detail, what friendship is
Friendship is something that should be honored because some people take advantage of their own friendships and really don't pay attention to what they have right in front of them.  If someone says they have a best friend then they should stick to what they say not change it for anyone.  Also, a true friend doesn't back stab you.  They don't go behind your back and talk smack about you.  A person who can keep someone else's secrets and their life story is a true friend who knows what they are doing. 

What makes me happy
There are a lot of things that make me happy, but there are certain things that really make me happy. A certain thing that makes me happy is my family because they will always be there for me when I'm in bad situation.  Another couple things that make me happy are my cellphone and I-pod. I really don't know what I'd do without my cellphone because I'm always having to talk to text my friends.
