Moved to Mesa School District
When I was in second grade I moved to the Mesa School District. I left my babysitter who had babysat me since I was six weeks old. I attended Adams Elementary till sixth grade. -
Bullying
I started getting bullied when I was in third grade. It was bad, and not a lot of my teachers did anything to help. But in sixth grade, I told my teacher what was happening and she put a stop to it immediately. -
President Obama
I had the opportunity to see President Obama speak at ASU graduation. I was young so I can't really remember what he said. But I still remember the excitement I had. -
Sea World
In sixth grade we took a a class trip to Sea World! I had my best friends in the group. I was my first time I had been to California. At the end of the school year, we all got a video that the teachers had made with pictures from the trip. -
Dislocated Knee
I dislocated my knee for the first time, when I was a freshman. It was at school and I was running for student council. I have dislocated it two more times since. -
Softball
I started playing softball when I was seven years old. I started out a pitcher but the coach said my arm was strong so he put me at third base. It never failed, first at bat, first pitch, I got hit with the ball. I played until freshman year, but have decided to not play anymore because I'm not as good as the other girls. -
Student Council
I was in Student Council my freshman year. It was a great experience and I've gotten better with talking to people though I'm still shy. I also am better with listening to other people's opinions. I made great friends. I was also able to visit New York as our trip. -
Heartbreak
I have experienced my first true heart break. I found out my boyfriend was cheating on me. It's hard to deal with but I will get through it just like I get through everything else. It's just a lesson that will help me in the future. -
Mental Health
Even though I had a good freshman year, I still had mental problems. I was hospitalized in the behavioral health hospital. I was diagnosed with severe depression, anxiety and a minor eating disorder. It was a tough time for me. But I got the help I needed. I still struggle, but I push through.
