Interestingly‚ the person who had the most impact on my life was my grandmother. My grandmother was a retired College Principal‚ but for me she was always my Grandmother. She taught me the kinds of things that school teachers never could teach in the classroom. Because my parents were at work and my grandmother was retired‚ I spent a lot of time with her. She was a mother‚ a grandparent and a teacher at the same time. She always prepared an interesting activity for the day. We visited museums‚ theatres

The strong smell of cigarette smoke is quite evident when you reach this point. Yes‚ my grandmother did smoke. My grandmother’s house was always full of laughter

The Birthday Party I was finally turning thirteen years old and had an upcoming birthday party. I didn’t get very many presents and not very many people came. I didn’t get many presents because most of the people who came only gave me money and cards. I got one hundred dollars from my mother and with it I bought a Ripstik Caster Board and a Pandigital Novel 7” Android Tablet.
