Shyla’s Story

IMAG0277

You see an awkward, timid teenager wearing mainly black, but there is more to me than meets the eye. You may believe I am not an creative, hardworking, or a friendly person based off my wardrobe, but in reality I am very artistic, goal oriented, and caring. I’m an artist who enjoys drawing along with writing poetry.I may look like I don’t care much about my grades or future, but in reality I have had straight A’s my whole life and want to get an education in Forensic Photography. Although I’m not a social butterfly per say, when I’m engaged in conversation i’ll contribute and make sure everyone is heard. I am shy especially in groups larger than three people, but I’m always open to meeting people. You probably can’t tell by looking at me but i’m proud of my Puerto Rican heritage and those who helped establish it. You see an awkward, timid teenager who is scared of her own shadow but there is so much more to my being that cannot be confined by words alone.
