My mom named me Andrea Marie. She said that she picked that name because she thought it was beautiful. She got Marie from my family mostly all of my cousins have that name. I was not named after anyone. I was born in Fresno on August 28 1993. I am the youngest of my family. My older sister, Desirrae, is a senior, my older brother Emilio is a junior. I spend time with my grandma and grandpa in the summers; they live in Texas so I don’t get to see them daily.

The best memory I have of going to her house was when she made me the best dinner ever. It was mashed potatoes and gravy, with chicken and corn on the side along with melted butter.

The one thing that is unique about me is that I say “Hi” to people I don’t know. It’s weird because they get all creped out. My family is special in many ways one of them is we tend to act very alike, kind of like were telepathic or something. We don’t really have any special traditions we celebrate the usual holidays like Christmas and Halloween stuff like that. My favorite memory was when it was my mom’s turn to make the turkey for Thanksgiving. She had just opened the oven and the turkey was almost ready-it looked so well. She was getting ready to take it out and it dropped right on the floor!

I have lived in Fresno. I have also lived in El Centro, that’s near Yuma. In Fresno I don’t remember what the houses were like I was still a newborn. Over in El Centro it was super hot, it is a really small town old houses and not that much to do. The town that I like the best would be Oxnard, of course. I like it because there are lots to do here good schools and good jobs you can get. The town that I liked the least was El Centro because their schools are old and there is nothing to do at all there and they have the worst jobs ever.

My favorite hobby is talking on the phone and being on Myspace. In my spare time what I do is go to my cousin’s house down the street. I go to my grandma’s house, too. Sometimes I help her clean.

About two years ago I used to do cheerleading for a team called the Rhinos. The best part of this was the games. The position that I played was the flyer. I was very good I used to go training camp in the summers. Our team got to the championships but lost.

The best family vacation I ever went on was the trip to Cancun. While we were there we went swimming with the dolphins and went scuba diving. The worst thing was that my cousin, Crystal almost drowned while we were scuba diving; she took off the life saver when we weren’t looking.
