Just Enough

I am African American, Creole, Barbadian and whatever else runs between the veins of my family tree. I am 19 years young and I reside in San Francisco, California, Bernal Heights district. I am proud of who I am because I know who I am but I am also proud because I am not sure exactly who I want to be yet. I know I want to inspire people. I want people to feel what I'm feeling when they hear me speak or when they view my movements. I am an Artist. I write, play, read and sing music. I am music. From the sway of my hips to the wave of my hand I am original. I do not seem nor do I wish to be anyone I am not. I am mysterious. So in college I am a double major in music and criminal justice. I love the suspense and mystery of being a crime scene investigator. I can not stomach death nor am I one to attend funerals. So seeing empty faces and soulless bodies on my job my frighten me but I will work at it because I want that. I believe in defining my own success. I Will not let anyone do that for me. I am a leader because I choose to be. I Was once in band and a Cheerleader in which I stood up and exceeded expectations in both. I became captain of the Cheerleading team after making varsity my freshman year, not too many can do that. And I was also the first girl, colored at that, to be on the high school percussion line my freshman year also. So I strive. Period. And will continue to do so until my heart stops. I hope that gives you enough or at least a little about me.
