There are many things in my life that have made me who I am today, but my main influence is my family. We have been through everything together, we know each others strengths and weaknesses and encourage each other.
My siblings and I have done almost everything together, and lean on each other for support and help. When we have questions on homework we are able to help each other because one of us has already been through that grade. We make little thing for each other to make us smile or laugh when we are sad or just in a bad mood. Just recently my little sister made me a clay photo transfer of Jensen Ackles(aka. Dean Winchester from Supernatural) (its amazing) and for Christmas I drew a picture of Sherlock(attempted) for my older sister. It has made me more thoughtful of my family,and friends and more unselfish.


My family and I have a vacation house in Utah where we ride ATV’s. Every summer and break my family goes up there to get away from all of the crazy and stress. I enjoy it because its a town of about two-hundred people, which makes it quiet and I like that. Being there it has made me more independent and love the outdoors. We have gone on many trail rides to Miner’s Park, Piute Lake, and more. Doing all of these things has made me adventurous more because I love traveling and seeing new places.

Another major factor in my life are my parents,because they made me, support me, and help me make decisions but also learn from my mistakes. My parents always encourage me to do what I have a passion for and that when you set your mind to something you can do it. Definitely keeping the mind set on what I want to achieve I have found an interest in the medicine industry when I am older, thinking about pursuing forensic anthropology,archeology,or forensic technician. Also hearing crazy stories from my parents childhood has taught me a lot about the right and wrong kind of people and that you can’t judge someone by looking at them because you don’t know what they are dealing with good or bad.


One of my biggest inspirations in my family is my dad,because throughout his life he has been “through hell and back”, if you ever meet my father he will either be your friend or a person that you don’t like. My dad works his a** off everyday and puts his family first.(what father should not) It has taught me that you should work hard for what you love. He has told my siblings and me many stories about his past that I have learned a lot from. Also my dad being the food director at Santa Barbara City College I have had many experiences that I would have not been able to do without him. Many times my sibling and I have helped catering events, I helped work the hundredth anniversary event for something, also I was a server for the private taste of the town event many years ago where I met chef Fabio Viviani. Having done all of this I have learned many things that will become useful later in my life.


I told you about some things that have made me who I am today, but there are many more. My family is my main influence in “my world” and probably continue to be it for a while.
