Who Am I

By Raegan, 16, Fall River

I am Raegan.
I am 16 and intend on living eternally.
When I tell you I'm five foot three, I'm cheating, and I wouldn't weigh 100 pounds all soaking wet.

I've never been sure if my hair is light brown or dark blond.
I love the music always playing in my head.
My best friend is my dog. He listens without interruption and I know he won't tell my secrets.
I love Christmas but can't help but be sad as a new year begins.
I eat when I'm bored, as well as every other time of the day and hate to be out in the rain.
I believe laughter is the best medicine; and figure that is why I'm rarely sick.
I think too much and feel the need to know everything, and I believe that one day I truly will.

Chocolate is my biggest weakness and being afraid is what scares me the most.
I am spoiled, but only because I work for what I get.
The future is quite scary to me, but I can find comfort in my past.
My mind changes like the minutes in a day, and I have trouble making decisions on my own.
To me, nothing is black and white.

Tinker Bell, candles and scissors that cut out cool shapes make me happy.
I love a day at the beach, but won't swim if there are any jellyfish.
My Mother knows the answers. My Father is my rock.
I don't believe in coincidence; everything happens for a reason.
I live like there's no tomorrow and know GOD didn’t put me here to be ordinary.
I find crickets quite annoying but love the sound of running water.

I love my brothers more than I'll ever let them know.
I love bubble baths and card games, but hate spiders and sad endings.
I like Pepsi more than Coke and doing crafts.
I love watching fire and making people laugh.
I like fluffy pillows and can never get enough hugs.
I need someone to love and someone to love me back.
I am independent and confident. But when life is more than I can stand, I kneel.

I love to read and escape into someone else's world for a little while.
I love flip flops and novels, and cappuccino more than coffee.
I am a proud Canadian but want to see what else this world has to offer.
I am silly, I am serious.
I am small but think BIG.
I am full of imagination, but can see reality clearly.
I am Raegan  and I know that God loves me.
