Have good times send positive vibes

The backstory behind my person is that he was in college to become a lawyer but he became too stressed out and dropped out and moved to the beach and now he is a professional surfer and owns a surf shop

I have changed for the better

These 6 names are people that I have grown a strong friendship with.During the beginning of the school year I hung out with the same 3 people.I have broken out my shell and decided to meet new people.I have made this decision for the better of me growing in my 4 years in high school.If people don’t want you to see you do better then there aren’t good for you.

During the school year I have stupid arguments with my “friends” that could have been resolve over a simple conversation.

The happy smile isn't gonna last

I feel like this expresses that life isn't always happy. I think happiness doesn't last. Because it seems like once i am happy something has to happen to ruin it. Since i was a little kid i things have been happening like deaths in the family and also good things like birthday parties and good times with family. My drawing relates to my memoir because i drew a room with two different perspectives. The two perspectives was sadness and happiness, and darkness and brightness by putting the sun in one side and the moon on the other. I also put a dark room on the darkness side.

6 word  memoir

      They all say the same thing

 Backstory

      Everybody says and thinks the same thing, when it comes to their everyday life.  Sometimes I feel abnormal, because sometimes I don't agree with their actions, music, or beliefs. A lot of people listen to the same music, watch the same shows, talk about the same thing, and believe the same thing. I mean there is nothing wrong with that, but there is nothing wrong with having  a different mindset on the world. That's what I'm learning right now.  Example, I have a different taste in music, it's a lot different from my friends. There is this one artist that I like, I play him for my friends all the time. They don't like him they think he is corny. I used to listen to them and follow the crowd, by listening to the same music they listen too. But I had to realize I don't like that type of music, and there is nothing wrong with the music I like. It's good to be different, you never get bored. 

In my room I have music influence/items located all over my room. In my chair, there are a stack of CD’s, there is also CD’s scattered around the room. I have a big poster on the ceiling, and another poster on the left wall. On the ceiling there's also music lines/notes. Music has a big influence on my life, that's why i choose this concept.

Six Word Memoir:

You can’t stop Rock and Roll

Connection of drawing to memoir:

11 Unrecorded, all not my doing.

When I was younger I didn’t have much control over my anger. Due to that it was really easy to get into a scuffle with me all because I couldn’t control myself if pushed. I had 11 fights in my old school unrecorded, all of them I didn’t start. I’m never the first to throw hands but i’ll hit back when struck. Since I never started the fights the people in my school never put it on my permanent record.

 I love fighting and all but I don’t start fights. There were just a lot of immature people who couldn’t keep their hands to themselves. They learned how to eventually. The room I have drew contains a few objects that represent my 6 word memoir. Since I got into a lot of fights I have fighting gear and equipment. Boxing is something that I love and boxing is fighting. There is a punching bag, a speed bag, and boxing gloves. All of those things relate to fighting.

 Due to the fact that I didn’t start the 11 fights I can relax. So there's a couch in the room. To cool off after a fight I always drink some water. Like cold water that was the reasoning for the refrigerator.

January 31st was the day I was born. I experience challenges and problems, which became mistakes and bloopers. I don’t let nothing change me even when people changing around me. “Keep everything blue” determine whether who I am. If you don’t truly know me then you must be red instead of blue.

I love questions and confusion because I’m different from every person that sits or stand next to me. Rilajah don’t always need people because she’s her own person with anyone really knowing.

I’ve been running track from the age of 12, I’ve excelled greatly and will continue to do well. Of course I don’t always get first but even though I still improve and learn from every race. Track has taught me to work for anything I want and nothing will ever be given to me easily. A golden work ethic will create a golden achievement that you will cherish forever. In my drawing it shows the medals I’ve earned from track meets and also shows weights portraying that I use them to work out. On my door there’s a Penn Relays tag I wore on my chest during running.

I’ve chosen something very simple, I have chosen my phone case. I choose mm phone case because I have a very serious love for my phone. I want my phone to be with me and protected at all times and my phone case does that.

Starr~ I chose a pentagram to represent me because I have unanswered questions. I believe that I should be able to hear both sides of the story before I automatically gain faith. I am the type of person that needs to see it to believe it, and reading a thousand year old book isn’t seeing to me. I would like to clearly state, that I am not a Satanist, and am simply curious to find out the other half of the story.
