Introduction: This Is Who I am

My name is Francine Peralta. I am seventeen years old. I can be completely silly at times, but I do have my serious moments. I am a considerate, loving individual. I love being outdoors and spending time with my family as well as my friends. There is not a time that you won't catch me with my headphones in my ears. I am ALWAYS listening to music, unless I'm in class of course. As far as my education goes; I am doing a dual enrollment at a community college, while attending high school. My goals in attending a community college are to gain experience I want to start earning my college credits now before I become a full time college student. Therefore, when I go into college as a full time student I can already be familiar with the type of environment provided with college. Attending a  community college will help me earn the  requirements to work in the medical field before transferring to a University to acquire a Master's Degree. I am looking forward to completing my goals and being determined.

This is my extraordinary family. They have been there for me through thick and thin. Even though Lupita and Robert are not my biological parents,  I still see them as if they are. I am grateful for them letting me into their home with open arms. I treat their children as if they are my own siblings. They are my family; the ones I can definitely put my trust and faith into. Even though we have had our ups and downs I know that they love me regardless. They accept me, who I am, and My deciscions in life; something my own parents couldn't do. I would give up anything for them, because I kno in return they would do the same for me.

These are some good friends of mine; their names are Linda and Adilene; Adi for short. Linda and I have been through so much together; She is one of my oldest friends; In which I can talk to her about anything and everything. She has made a great impact in my life: I am grateful for everything she has done for me. As for, Adi she was my bestfriend for four almost five years. We have had a falling out recently. However, her and I both know that at the end of the day we will be there for eachother. I am grateful for her because she was there when my family wasn't and understood me when no one else could. She has indeed, made a difference in my life.






 This is my best friend Karen. She is my sister, and it feels as if she is my other half. Karen has been there for me through everything. She truly is like family. What ever situation I know I can count on her to be there for me. I will always be here for her as just like she is for me. Karen and I haven't been bestfriends long but it feels as if we have. She fits right in with my family and I and continues to make a change in my life every single day. I am thankful, grateful, and appreciate her. Considering, I am not the easiest person to get a long with all day every day.

I am thankful for everything in my life. Every day I find something new to inspire me, and I have yet to fully find who I am. No matter what I will continue to look for ways to improve myself as well as my eductaion, and appreciate everything that I have.
