Autobiography

The Great Quan It was back on August 24, 1995 at 9; 07 am when I brought into this world by Maria White-Dumas and Stanley. Their first born child then a minute later my twin popped out. Since that day I have been here in Atlanta, GA where I reside at 1978 Phillips Drive. There on my parents have made two additions to our family; my 15 year old brother Jahmal and my 12 year old brother Chris. I can honestly say my family is the greatest thing in the world. My mom is a Purchasing Agent for United Distributors, and my dad is an ISS teacher at King Middle School and South Atlanta High School’s Head Baseball and Softball coach. And with a family of all boys and crazy different personalities I have much respect for my parents for continuing to love us and put up with us. Then you have to move on… Currently my life has started a new chapter here at Morehouse College as a upcoming freshman, new beginning, new friends, new environment, and same ole Quan. I can describe myself in many ways. But the ultimate thing that won’t change is being a twin. Being a twin is a whole different than just being a normal child, because there is a bond like no other among the two of you. Then comes the stage of being separated from your twin when college rolls around, but surprisingly he is going to Bates College in Lewiston, Maine. Bates has a connection with Morehouse College since the once president of Morehouse College Benjamin E. Mays is an alumni of Bates College. So therefore they have this trade where I can go to Bates for a semester and he can come to Morehouse for a semester. So in a way we are still close and connected although he is 1,261 miles north of me. Although I doubt either one of us will leave and do a semester at each other’s schools. My lifestyle and upbringing as a child was very different having to do it with a twin by my side the

    It would be fun to have a twin. If I had a twin we would dress up as creepy dolls and scare people. Scaring people would be fun. Just imagine two creepy life size dolls chasing after you down a street. Creepy, right? Another reason I want a is to tell secrets to her. We look the same so it is like trusting yourself. We would also trick our parents by saying “I’m the other twin”, because then they would be confused. The last reason I would want a twin is so we could see how outfits looked like us. It would be like looking in a real life mirror. Being a twin would be fun. Do you think so?…

    I was born at 11:55 am on a Saturday in the Kern Medical Center on February 7, 2003. My mom and grandma were arguing about what my name was gonna be. My grandma said Mercedes (gosh what a horrible name), but my mom said, Breanna. They agreed but my grandma said Mercedes had to be in there somewhere, but my mom thought that was an ugly name ( which I agree with). I don’t know the rest after that but then that’s how I became Breanna Sadie Reyes. 6 months later I said my first word and it was Poppa. My mom wasn’t sure if I was trying to say Grandpa or Papas (potatoes), I guess will never know. Thursday, February 7, 2004, was my first birthday and I was obsessed with Winnie the Pooh, so obsessed that I took a picture of Winnie the Pooh holding a 1 in his hand and I was so happy.…

    April 7th, 1999 is when I was born on Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota. I only lived there for two weeks after I was born. While we were in South Dakota my parents had bought my cat Sadie. She is actually still alive to this day! My mom had told me that the night I was born the doctor had an emergency Cholecystectomy and came to check on us the next day wearing a gown and pushing his own IV poll. After living in South Dakota for a couple of weeks, we then moved to Indiana. We only lived there for a year and then moved to Missouri. I do not remember anything about living at those two places because I was only about a year and a half old. We only stayed in Missouri for a month then we moved to Illinois where my parents family lived, and also because my grandma was diagnosed with breast…

    What makes you unique? What makes you so special, so memorable? But what would happen if you were a twin? In pop culture, being a unique individual is celebrated unless you are a twin. Twins are expected to dress alike, think alike, talk alike, and maybe even finish each other’s sentences. However, many twins try to move away from how the society views them: identical. Therefore, twins have a much harder time finding their own identity. This is the case for twin brothers George and John. Although they are identified as twins, the brothers have made efforts to distinguish themselves from one another. George watches the world through cloudy, hollow eyes that sink into his skull. He keeps his thinning, grey eyebrows scrunched above his eyes, resulting…

    Throughout the years we moved around a lot. I went to many different schools as a kid. So far Huntsville high has been the longest school I've attended. Moving schools was always tough and my living conditions weren't t the best. I don't really have one house that I grew up in. I lived in many different places with my siblings and adopted mom. I never really had a permanent childhood best friend. When my brother and I weren't fighting we would end up playing and making up ridiculous games because we were always grounded. For a while Erica Mayes came and lived with us due to family issues, and that was always fun. We were always doing ridiculous things to keep ourselves entertained.…

    I was born on October 24th during the year of 1988, to my mother Lauren DiBenedetti and my father Raymond Valente in the wonderful state of Massachusetts. My parents ended up being better as friends rather than spouses. They were only married for a few years and got divorced when I was around two years old. Soon after, possibly too soon, Mom remarried a gentleman by the name of Gary Maltz. He ended up having a tremendous impact on me. Dad also got remarried, but unfortunately set a world record for shortest marriage ever; it lasted a whopping two weeks. I lived with my mother and stepfather in a little town in Massachusetts called Bolton. I stayed with them Monday through Friday so I could get an education in a smaller school system. During the weekends I would stay with my father in Natick and play hockey for a variety of different teams depending on my age.…
