My Birth
I am so happy that I was born and am able to make a small footprint on this huge world.

Taylor Graduates HS and Goes to College
My oldest sister, Taylor, and I never got along when I was younger. Once she went to college though, she became nicer. This is when we first started the great relationship we now have. She was the first of us all to move out of the house at a time when we really needed her and it just showed us how much she was willing to step up to the plate.

I Fractured My Tibia
When I fractured my tibia, although it was a tragic thing, it taught me a lot. I first realized then how much independence was taken because I needed help with so many things. I also realized that I was someone who really liked to be active.

The Big Move to North Carolina
When I moved to North Carolina, I realized a lot of things about myself. This was the first time that I was going to be alone and to make things harder, the closest family I had was a 5-8 hour drive away. Once I started school though and made friends, I realized that there was not a better college out there for me.

Traveled Europe
I chose when I traveled Europe as a big event because I realized a lot about myself during this trip. This was the first time I had traveled not only one, but three countries by myself completely. I really learned about how independent I can be.
