Family Members:
Thomas Munyon (Father)-- My dad has always been talented, intelligent, hilarious, and he knows how to make my sister and I feel better in any situation.
Ashlynn Munyon (Sister)-- She is one of my favorite people in the world and is very stubborn. When her mind has been made up, she will die before she changes it. She is strong-willed and has no filter, but I love her.
Jennifer Hendricks (Mother)-- She is unreliable, bad at budgeting, and she's a good nurse. -
Even before I was born, my parents have been in debt. There was never enough money to get things we needed. They were living from paycheck to paycheck. Not that being young parents to two kids helped any
-
My parents never handled conflict well. They yelled and fought when the other wasn't listening and even when both were. They didn't apologize after which made my childhood environment very stressful. My dad is usually calm but something about my mom made him angry. My mom yelled no matter what.
-
My younger sister was born when I was a freshly new two year old. When she was born, I was so happy so be an older sister. I'd like to think I matured when she was born.
-
I would change the fact that my parents got married in the first place since it was after they had my sister and I.
-
My dad's parent, so my grandparents, were always making me feel loved as a kid. I can remember my third birthday was the happiest and most prominent time I felt loved. I got a cake and got it all over my face. Best time of my life.
-
Happiness in my childhood was spending time watching movies with my dad when he got home from work.
-
I remember being eight years old in my first Karate class. I loved it so much because it taught me to treat others with kindness and to not hurt others without a cause.
-
Morality played a big role throughout my life. My father was the main one to teach me this, as well as everything else. He did this indirectly by buying a homeless woman and her children food to eat. He gave them a meal for the night instead of money.
-
I got a purple belt (level 4) in karate. I was so proud of myself as was my dad. I have gotten Honor Roll throughout school.
-
When I met my best friend, Christina Ortiz, she told me that my freckles were beautiful. No one ever told me that before. We became inseparable and are still friends until this day.
-
At 13, my parents had a really violent fight on Christmas Eve. This fight caused my parents to split and revealed all the hidden secrets kept from my sister and I. Ignorance really is blissful.
-
This one time when my mother was out partying with her friends. At this time, my mother was going through a rebellious stage, much like a teenager, after my father and her split up. She had really raunchy friends, and we had to go help her because she was drinking and driving. Her tire popped because she hit it on the curb while driving. Her friends were both males and half her age, so she was trying to impress them. She made me feel like I wasn't her child.
-
I spend most of my money on my mother. When she needs help with something, I offer mine. Other than that, I try to save as much money that I can.
-
I try to be the bigger person and walk away; however, sometimes being the bigger person upsets others so I end up yelling. I only yell as a last option.
-
My dad has been the most influential person in my life because he's always pushing and egging me forward with everything I do. Mostly in academic areas, but nevertheless, he is always encouraging me.
-
Happiness continues to be when I spend time with my dad's other this time in a different country for the summer.

Newspaper club was one of the clubs I joined that has helped me express my feelings through words intellectually.
-
I'm going to go to college and or university and get a degree in law.
-
When I move out of my dad's house, I'd like to be living in a dorm close to my university campus. After I'd get an apartment close to my job. All I need is the essentials to live.
-
I want to get married eventually, preferably after my career is started and school is finished. My future husband must love me unconditionally with trust and honesty. He also must be attractive in at least one way to me. Whether that be in personality or looks.
-
My parents were always fighting around my sister and I. They would throw things, scream, and sometimes it would get physical. Watching this happen and seeing how it affected my sister and I, I would never jump headfirst into marriage even if I got pregnant. I will only marry someone for love, nothing else.
-
I do want a family consisting of a least two children and a loving husband. I want a family that I never had.
-
Happiness in midlife would look like a normal family--wife and husband--with 2-3 kids. My dream job and dream house. Maybe even a car.
-
The top five lessons I would teach my children would kindness, hard-work, organization, loving people/things, and open minds at all times. I would teach them everything I learned as a child. But instead of them having to watch it happen, like I did, I will explain with my words.
-
In my midlife, maybe about 45, I see myself retiring from my first career and opening my own law firm or writing a book.
-
If nothing stood in my way I would like to have a as-close-to-perfect family with a beautiful house and lawn. I’d have nice cars and be working my dream jobs. We'd live in a mild weather place.
-
I want to live to 80 or 85 because it's not too old where I cannot take care of myself nor is it too young too where it would be shocking. A perfect age to go.
