Mini Autobiography

Born on September 29th 1991, I haven't moved from the town of my birthplace. At 12:33 am I was born in Hamilton, Ontario in St. Joseph's Hospital. This turned out to by my mother's first only child. Five years prior to my birth, my parents immigrated from Serbia hoping that Canada would become a better place to start their life as a married couple. My mom had lived here when she was young so she's fluent in english, but my dad is completely foreign. During the rockiest years of my teenage life, my parents divorced and things seemed like they were only going to get worse. My mom met a new man, and I couldn't ask for a more ideal stepdad. Looking back, I think the decision amongst my parents was only for the best. 

Looking back on my childhood, I noticed that i was definitely a wild kid. The definition of a tomboy, always hanging out with the boys and playing sports. I took karate and kick boxing for a few years and eventually started doing dance. After a while, i gave up with all of this and quit everything around the fifth grade. Other then my bossy antics, I'm completely animal/nature orientated. My biggest desire right now is to move away from this awful place and live some place that's constantly sunny and warm and have a few cute pets to take care of. As of right now, i have two GORGEOUS kitties. :) One is a boy, he's seven years old (28 in cat years) and his name is Tigger. The other one is a female, she's only three years old and she has a foreign serbian name that i won't even attempt to type... I always wanted to get a rabbit and name it Thumper, but my mom is pretty permanent on her decision to never get one of the "foul smelling creatures."

My big group of friends is a definite blessing and I think I'm lucky to have each and everyone of them. I can trust all of them with every secret and I know I won't regret that decision. They're always there for me when i get stuck in situations full of teen angst. Being a teenager is insanity, so I think they keep me fairly sane... I'm also pretty lucky to be dating my best friend. He's honest and hilarious and I think those are both very important factors to a relationship! 

Other then all of that, I'm probably the most impatient person you'll ever meet. This is the biggest imperfection of mine that i've tried repeatedly to maintain. Somehow, everytime I do try, whatever I'm waiting for usually gets delayed and my temper flares. If I could change anything about myself, that would definitely be it! Towards the positive side, I'm extremely loyal to people I love and care for. I love the feeling of being able to help someone emotionally just by listening and by assuring the person that they can confide in me. 

In this course i hope to accomplish a number of things: to become a stronger writer, improve the structure of my work, and broaden the variety of writing methods i can choose from. I love english courses, but I've always disliked writing about topics that I'm not completely interested in. It makes me excited to know that in this course I'll have a variety of topics to choose from that I can put my full potential towards.
