Welcome to the Real World !
On this day, my mother had a rough night. She gave birth to two kids, my twin brother and I. We had a welcoming arrival to the real world. I guess you can say we had a good accomplishment getting out safely after 9 long months. -
Welcome to Arizona
Seven years into my life my parents decided we made a major change and move here to Arizona. So we did and we've lived here ever since. This was a major change for us, since we had a small two bedroom home back in California, compared to that this house always seemed unreachable. Even though I was only a youngster when we made the big move it was pretty major for me, it's so different in Arizona, much more calm than I was use to in L.A. -
You're NOT Welcome to the "Wedding"
My oldest sister left the house and got married to her husband. This was a very sad time for me. I never knew life without her and now she was simply gone. I was angry at her because she never even told me about the "wedding". It was hard because I always depended on her, but it helped me to grow up and be more independent. -
Welcome to High School
I started my first year in high school. I remember being super nervous! The whole year kind of changed me. I got involved with a lot of bad people and bad habits. I became someone I never thought I would be, someone I didn't want to be. My poor decisions effected me greatly and I became really depressed. -
Here Comes Trouble
I got into trouble with the police!! I felt dead, I asked myself "How am I going to hide this from my mom?!" , it obviously wasn't possible. Shoplifting was a hobby for me and I had finally gotten caught. This was a really low point, I had to pay a lot of fines! I quit my shoplifting habits right after. -
Love Birds
My second oldest sister got married. This was a big deal because we are a big family! So we always all shared rooms, now that she was gone I finally had my own room. It was nice not having her around though, we actually got closer after she left. -
I ALMOST DIED!
I was in a car accident with two of my sisters. The car rolled over three times, we were all rushed to the hospital and I got to ride in a helicopter! I had a few broken ribs, bruised lungs and lots of open cuts, nothing too serious though. This helped me to really appreciate life a lot more! It's when I decided to quit all my bad habits. -
It's a Boy!
My nephew Kobe was born! I was actually in the room when he was given birth to! This was a big deal because he's the first grandson of my parents! This made us all very happy. (That's a real recent picture of him!) -
A New Me :)
I began to develop a relationship with God. I studied the bible. It was the only thing and still is the only thing that makes me truly happy. It has helped me to be a better person and to completely eliminate all of my old bad habits. Following bible principals has caused me lots of joy and blessing including up until now. -
Dedicating My Life to God.
This day I was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. This has by far been the best decision I have ever made, dedicating my life to God.
