My Goals for the future are to become a journalist and focus on politics and world issues. I also plan to join the Peace Corps to educate others in foreign countries. Overall, I really wish to help people to stand on their own, and to make this world a better place one step at a time.

I was born in Martinez, California. My life didn't have a great head start. When I was only 5 I had to move away from my mothers side of the family, and not see them for 3 years. Not long after that, my parents got divorced. I never lived in one place for longer than 1 year, moving often. All around California, to Hawaii, even being homeless not too long ago. Going from Riches To Rags and back to normal has opened my eyes and my heart. I am not who I was a few years back ( a depressed, bitchy, spoiled person) Im happier now, living life wherever I am, calling where my feet are on the ground, home. But Im trying Really hard, to become strong and successful enough to help and fight for others and myself. And I know that being 18, pregnant, and becoming a mother will make it harder, but i have wonderful love for my child and I have a great love and passion for the world I live in, in Justice, and for all people.
