I have one brother who is 2 years older than me and a black and white cat named shadow. Some things about me is that I love animals, traveling, makeup, and clothes.

For example, one time there was this huge yellow snake that I was scared to touch but I overcame my fear and eventually went to pet it. I also like to travel to places. For example, last summer I went to Jacksonville and for Christmas break I went to California. I would like to to travel to more places when I’m older. I might even be a flight attendant. A number one thing about me is that I LOVE makeup. Makeup is what I spend half my time on bc I like trying new trends and new products. Clothing is something that I also like.I love thrift shopping and findi
