I Enjoy ..

• Hanging out with my family and have family gatherings.

• Getting my hair done I like to change my hair color at least every year

• Going to san Francisco every other weekend

• These things are important to me because besides what's going on in my life I can go to these 3 things and I will forget all my problems and enjoy being happy, these things comfort me in the time I need them most.

The best thing about me..

• Is that I'm a very loving person, “I have a big heart” my mother tells me. I feel that is a good thing because I’m always someone you can depend on. The greatest thing ever is to make someone happy That you love or maybe you may not know them. I'm always helping out if I can do it for you I will.

My Most Important Individual Right

• The 2nd Amendment• A well regulated Militia, being

necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

• This particular right because if I were to be attack in my home or outside of my home I would like to have some sort of weapon in self defense and not be tried because I shot an possibly killed someone in an act of self defense
