One of the things you learn during the angst-filled adolescent years of life is loneliness. To combat this, I grew close to my High School community.

My life has always been filled of water.

When I was young, I dreamt of one day being able to help people. It began in the fourth grade; I had a friend who wasn't as gifted as many kids in my class. It haunted me to see how others treated him just due to the fact he was different than everyone else. We continued to talk all throughout elementary school, but a couple years later we began going to different schools and soon he faded out of my life. I doubt he realizes just how much of an inspiration he was to me. I originally aspired to become

My entire life I have spent looking forward to the future. I was always asking to start something new, play a new sport, join a new club, or play a new game. As a result of this, I was never very patient as a child. I can remember sitting in dentist offices, bouncing in my chair, waiting for a nurse to enter the lobby and call my name. Now, as a 15 year old, I have grown to be much more composed but I still possess these enthusiastic qualities. Thought elementary school I couldn’t wait to enter
