Autobiography
I'm not much of a writer but here goes nothing. My name is Anonda Hellems and I'm 14 years old. I was born in Des Moines ,Iowa on January 10, 2000. I have 4 siblings 1 sister and 3 brothers. It was cool having other brothers and sisters but they would tease me because I was the youngest. When I was younger I was quiet and stayed to myself. I know hard to believe right?
In kindergarten I was bullied because all of the other girls thought I was a spoiled brat which may I say wasn't the case but we all know haters will continue to hate. So once I got to first grade I was put in private school. At first I hated it but it gave me a chance to meet people who could take me places in life and excel to my full potential. One in particular I still remember to this day , Marcey Briggings. Me and Marcey lived in the nicer part of Iowa so we would always go places and travel with each other until one day she moved. From that point on she helped me kind of interact will people more often.
Years passed and before I knew it I was in fifth grade. I had finally blossomed into basically who I am today a outspoken , independent, and ambitious individual. Ive always had good grades because I had no choice. It was do good or be on punishment until I was old enough to have kids. So you know what ? I worked my but off. Los Angeles was a thought but I didn't think my mom would follow through.
This thought faded away and before you knew it I was in my beautiful dress for my 8th grade graduation. That was one of my greatest memories everyone cheering for me congratulating me just the atmosphere was positive. For most of the time it stayed positive until my mom announced that we were moving to Los Angeles. My heart dropped all I could think about is how quickly that situation escalated. A situation like this just proves how your life can take a dramatic turn in less than a minute.
Soon we were on a airplane and Iowa , my home was so far away I could barely see it. When we arrived in Los Angeles immediately everything was different. It was so fast pace everyone was in a rush. Believe it or not their's one main freeway that everyone uses and their was nearly never traffic but here was a complete different story .
My mom gravitated towards Park La Brea because it was in a decent location. We soon met a rental agent and found the place right for us . All of our stuff was moved in by movers and I started to face reality. Oh but it got worse I came to a deep dark place called Fairfax High School. The first day was a fail . Every time I greeted someone they looked at me like I just committed murder. I may be weird or annoying or really smart but its all apart of who I am so if you cant accept that you cant accept me.
