Priorities

In high school my main priority was dancing. Everything else just fit around my dance team and my dance studio. Since I came to OU and I do not dance anymore my priorities have changed a lot. In high school I never really had to worry about my grades because I never tried hard and still got A's. Now that I am in college I have to constantly think about my grades and homework. It has been a big change to actually have to study for hours for a test or take over a week to write a paper. Another priority that has always been a big priority but I have not gave it much thought but now that I live away from home I realize how much my family does mean to me and how important they are to me. I Never thought that I would miss them as much as i do now. 

Influences

In my life 3 women have influenced me the most; my aunt Woogie, my grandma, and of course my mom, they are the strongest women i know. They are always able to see the good in the bad and keep me motivated in every way possible.

I have always been influenced to do good mainly because i always want my family to be proud of me. I never want to let anyone in my family down so i always try to do my best in everything i do, whether it be school, leadership, or just being a good person. An example of something that influences me is that when my grandma was younger she had polo and was in a full body cast for 2 years but she never gave up hope on getting better. Her strength that she had always makes me want to make her proud. Since graduation this really hasn't changed, just because i am in a different town then my family i still want to make them proud.
