Autobiography
"Your outfit looks cute but not you",is what I hear alot ever since kindergarten I been teased and bullied about the way I look.
Trying to fit in and be something your not is hard,but accepting who you are is even harder.As I walk through the halls of Piper High I see boys imitating lil wayne and plies,girls who swear their Beyonce and people like me who are not being clones of others but just being themselves.sometimes I just watch and laugh at how the media has so much influence on young people today,including myself.Im often called scary or stuck up,truth is im neither.Im just a 16 year old girl and future cadiologist trying to trying to make a difference in the world and longing for my voice to be heard.

The peace symbol is the most widely known symbol in the world.It's used as a symbol of freedom,worldwide peace and non violence.The peace symbol represents me because I am a very calm non violent person and the peace symbol to me represents truth and being true to yourself.

On a warm spring night in Staten Island,New York on April 10,1992 gods gift to the world was born.My name means alive in arabic.I am Aisha Raven Henry I grew up in a Trinidadian american household with both parents and my younger sister.When I was four years old I moved to Lauderdale Lakes.And attended Bennet elementary at the age of five.I attended six other elementary schools after that.I started singing and dancing when I was eight and had dreams of becoming a famous celebrity by the time I turned thirteen.Unfourtunatly that dream didint come true.Now I have new dreams and new goals that are more realistic.When i was 9 me and friends used to wear nail polish as eye shadow and put lipstick on our faces and acted as if we were models,when my mother saw me with the blue sparkley nail polish all over my eyes she was speechless and I was grounded for that day.Never again will I wear nail polish on my face.
In 2003 my grandfather died of cancer in the esophagus.My grandfather was the person I came to whenever I had problems in school or anything else.Later on me and my family found out my grandfather was misdiagnosed and had heart complications as well as cancer.Thats the main reason I want to become a cardiologist.If my gandfather knew all the other medical problems he had a doctor could have saved him.I want to be the person you see on television who saves lives,only this will be reality and unscripted.
Im a little person with big things to say.Im 4'11 and nice people remind me of that everyday. Janelle monae,All american rejects and N.E.R.D are some of my favorite artists to listen to.Im kinda obsessed with pharrell williams but who isn't? During the summer of 2008 I went to Trinidad and had the best time ever!Even though I traveled to Trinidad a number of times prior,my stay in Trinidad last summer was pure fun.From staying up late listening to my grandmother tell stories of the green man,the la diablese and other folk tales,to swimming in the ice cold river and going to see Keyshia Cole and T-pain in concert also meeting new friends and family along the way.
I havent thougt of my plan to become a millionaire yet and change the world yet,but I will soon.Until then im trying to graduate from high school and stay true to myself.

For my english 3 class in 11th grade I wrote a autobiography,this is part of it.
