Hi, I'm new. I've been through a lot lately, but I guess you wouldn't know that. I'm not trying to make me the center of attention. I'm not trying to impress anyone. I'm not trying to "show off", well how can I when I don't have the kind of skills to show. I'm here to simply get better. I'm here to make my voice heard when it matters. I'm here to be the person I want to be. A little bit about myself: At the time that I am writing this, I am 19. I graduated highschool and I'm now attending college at the University of Texas at Rio Grande Valley. Most people don't know where we're located, so I'll give you a hint. We're at the very bottom tip of Texas. Hope that helps haha. I am currently looking into majoring in Music Education with a minor in English. Teaching has always been my passion and motivating others to live and move forward has been a stronghold for me. When I was in Highschool we did this competition called UIL Poetry Interpretation. I was able to advance all the way to regionals, because I love the art of poems. I am very approachable and I'm willing to take any constructive criticism. I love music, writing, and playing video games. I don't feel like posting a picture of what I look like so I just put up one that looks similar to me. Feel free to shoot me an email or even a message on social media. My @ is all the same as my username. Well this was too long haha. It's nice to meet y'all and I hope to hear from you. :)
