Sunflower past to present

I remember I started out as a seed.

Being born in Dayton Ohio on a spring day

of March 29, 1994 at 6:09 in the morning.

 

As I grow I begin to be mature

and talked more. I remember I didn't

start talking until I was 4 years of age,

and was sent to special ed classes.

 

My father has been motivating me to

read. More people see beauty in me

than what is negative

about me saying, there are the nice yellow parts

around the black brownish parts.

 

I remember learning on my own since I was seven. I learn things by

doing things over and over 'til I become like a head master of them.

 

I remember moving to Detroit since I was four and moved since

I was twelve. I am at the age where I do a lot of traveling. I lived

in Michigan for eleven years then moved to South Carolina.

 

I remember the time when I was talkative then as

I get older then I get a little quieter.

 

I remember the first time I fell in love with running was when I joined

the wrestling team in 7th grade when I lived in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

 

I remember my first flight at the age of about four or five traveling to

Orlando, Florida, to go to Disney World and Universal Studios.

 

I remember a time when I wanted someone

to play with when I was seven.

 

I remember when my parents got seperated when I was seven,

which was a sad feeling for me to experience.

I also remember being chubby when I

was seven then started losing weight when I was sixteen.

 

I remember learning how to draw cartoons.

 

As I got older and older I tend to get even smarter.

 

I remember my dad saying to me that he was told that

I will not be successful but that proved the devil that he is wrong.

 

I remember when I laugh because I am just silly.

 

I still show quietness and silliness and intelligence.

 

I am bright as a sunflower.
