About Me

Me and my donkey, Joker
I was born on December. 14,1995 in London, Ontario. I have lived in many different houses since I’ve been born, but I was always able to attend the same school. I lived on a farm for many of my childhood years, where I had a donkey named, Joker. It was all I wanted for Christmas when I was four. We also had a sheep that I named, Sheila and some cows. I now live just outside of Goderich with my mom, step dad and younger brother where my grandpa lived originally and ran the family used car dealership and repair shop. Now my step dad has taken it over and kept the business going.

I think of myself as being; shy, responsible, caring, dedicated, easy going, and sensitive. I think that I have a sense of humour. A lot of people say I always appear to be happy and smiling. I get told that I’m nice and very easy to talk to. I like helping people with their problems and making them feel better. I usually put other people before myself.

My family with my step dad's tractor
Some of the stuff I like to do for fun is going camping with family and friends, going to tractor pulls all across Southern Ontario to watch my step dad compete against many other fellow tractor pullers. I enjoy hanging out with friends on weekends or when I have some spare time, not doing homework or babysitting. I am close with my family especially my one aunt and cousin, we get together for more things then just family events and birthdays.

This December is a very eventful month for me because I will be turning 16 and can get my G1. Christmas also takes place in this month, usually spent at home with family and friends but this year for Christmas my brother and I will not receive any presents because we are going to Cuba. I no other people who have been to Cuba, along with my parents they have previously been there. I am very excited to go because the farthest I’ve been out of Canada is Nashville, Tennessee. I had the opportunity to go to Nashville when I was thirteen. We went on a tour that showed us the location of the stars homes, many different museums, as well as Cooter’s Garage. We went to the Grand Ole Opry and saw Carrie Underwood along with some other artists. When we were there I never had the chance to meet one of the stars that live in Nashville.

My cousin and I with High Valley
I like listening to music to fall asleep at night, or when I’m studying for upcoming tests and exams. My favourite genre of music is country, but I listen to a variety of genres of music. Some of my favourite country artists are; Taylor Swift, Jason Aldean, Tim McGraw, and Darius Rucker. I am attending a Down with Webster concert on Thursday night, and I like going to Music in the Fields each year with a variety of country artist each year, that is held in Lucknow, Ontario.I have seen High Valley in concert with Emerson Drive. I like watching Pretty Little Liars, Gossip Girl, and Heartland, these shows are all a little different from each other in the kind of story it tells but I enjoy watching them all. I am not a big fan of reading, but if I find a good book that I’m interested in then I don’t mind reading. I read the required materials for school, but outside of school I do not read that much, I prefer to be doing other things.


For this class I would like to achieve a mark of eighty three percent because I think this seems like a reasonable goal considering my past marks. Since I am getting in the higher grades of high school I want to make sure I keep my marks up so it looks better on my record. I have a habit of procrastinating doing my homework til the last minute or waiting to study for tests til the night before. I am going to try my best to stop doing this and do all my work to its full potential.
