Introductory

   Hi, my name is Aaliyah and I am a sophomore that attends Fort Lauderdale High School. I am enrolled in the pre-law program. When I first applied for the pre-law program I was interested in being a lawyer. After my law class in freshman year I changed my mind and decided to pursue journalism. At first I thought I wouldn't like the school but it's been good so far. I met a good group of friends that mingle well. I like to be very active around school so I joined some clubs and attended interests meetings for some of them. I was apart of a club called Bright Casters and a Club called Bloom (a women empowerment club).During the middle of my freshman year I joined the Step Team and at the end of my freshman year I joined the Fort Lauderdale High School flag line. I've made friends that are apart of the dance, majorette, and flag line (all part of the auxiliary).

   I have many likes and dislikes but for now I'll start off by discussing the things I like. For one, I enjoy spending quality time with my friends and family. Spending time with them makes me happy especially when I'm having a bad day and feeling down. Another thing that I like to do is go on vacation and sign up for fun excursions. Last summer my family and I went on a trip to Aruba. We stayed in an all inclusive hotel along the beach which meant that we had unlimited food and drinks. While I was there I went ATV riding through the mountains and some of the towns. I also went in a tube that gets pulled by a boat. Even though I fell out of the tube and had a panic attack it was honestly worth it. Lastly, I enjoy styling hair. I have practiced on plenty of mannequin heads and I've practiced on approximately five human heads.

   On the other hand, I also have several dislikes that I'd like to discuss. One of my biggest dislikes is a person that purposely spoils movies and shows for me. I'm currently binge watching 15 seasons of Greys Anatomy and several people have attempted to tell me what happens at the end of season 15. Before they can even get a word out I cut them off and stop them from spoiling it. Another one of my dislikes are animals. The only animal that I can tolerate is a small dog but other than that I despise animals. I mainly dislike them because of the traumatic experiences that I had with animals as a child. I also dislike when people comment on how tall I am. It's not a big deal to me but when I hear it everyday it starts to get pretty aggravating.
