I was born in Houston Texas(yeehaw!). I lived there for 6 years before I moved to North Carolina and then later Virginia. I would categorize this stage as the infancy stage since I was a newborn. There was not much thought going on in my head! But there was trust vs. mistrust because since I had just come into the world I had to get used to seeing 2 individuals caring for me. Which I imagine could I've been hard because I hadn´t known ANYONE prior to them. Yet, I have to let them feed me milk??

In March of 2012 my mom relocated us back to Nigeria where we stayed for the next few years so she could receive support from our family. I feel like this was part of the early childhood stage. Of course from a racial standpoint, life will always be different for me, so growing up around people who looked like me helped me gain control of my own sense of person and develop without doubts or shame of who I am.

September 2012- Moved back and started Preschool

# data[].attributes.body
In September of 2012 I came back to America and started preschool. During this time I faced the accusation of being called bossy at recess. I think this represents the Pre-school stage. Not actually because I was in Pre-school but at recess I would always make up fun games for me and my friends to play and when my friends tried to disagree with me I would get insecure. I would feel like maybe I´m not as qualified to lead as I thought. This would represent the guilt standpoint. However if someone were to enjoy my games and verbally express so, I would feel proud of myself for taking the initiative.

September 2014- Met my 2nd grade teacher

# data[].attributes.body
During this year I was in the second grade and I met the best teacher I ever had. Her name was Mrs. Greene and I had such a special connection with her. She was also especially kind to me and went over and beyond to help me with anything I needed. I believe this can be classified under the School age of industry v. inferiority. My connection with Mrs. Greene helped give me positive reinforcement and reassurance which allowed me to foster a feeling of industry that I was skilled and successful.

During this year I met my best friend to this day! 6 weeks ago marked 8 years we´ve been friends. We met in fourth grade in Mrs. Hubshmans class and we bonded over a shared ex friend who bullied us. I believe this describes the Adolescence age of identity versus role confusion. As described in Erikson´s and Vygotsky´s theories our social interactions keep us grounded by allowing us to have a sense of self identity. My relationship with my best friend helped provide me social support during this time and also helped me define my social role.

October 8th 2019 - My worst birthday ever

October 8th 2019 - My worst birthday ever

# data[].attributes.body
In 2019 I had the worst birthday of my life. I was going through an awkward stage in life and my hormones were all over the place. I was always sad and always crying, and this year my grandma was visiting us and she had a stroke a couple days prior to my birthday. So not only was I sad about my grandma I also received little to no love because their was bigger issues at hand. I believe this experience can be classified in the young adulthood era of intimacy v. isolation. At this crucial and young point in my life I craved the intimacy and affection from my parents but due to other issues going on within my house, my yearning resulted in isolation. This feeling of isolation is most likely why I remember it so vividly.

This was also a low point in my life because my now ex friend had dropped me due to our past issues. It still affects me but it is something i hold dear to my heart because it reminds me to be a good person. I believe this event can be categorized under the adolescence era of identity v. role confusion. My altercation with my friend made me feel confused about my own self perception and social role within society as I started to question if I could be classified as a good person or not.

I got a job at Carvel! Scooping ice cream like papas freezeria. 12 dollars an hour and after tip 24 an hour! My experience in this job allows me to gain more responsibilities and further reflect on my role in society and the part I have to play within this establishment.

During this month I got my license and my first car! I was so nervous taking the driving test. I took the course that was over 7 days so everyday for a week straight I just had severe anxiety. Immediately after my parents got me my car ( above!). Getting a new car means gaining independence and new responsibilities which can contribute to perception of self and roles within society.

November 2024 - Learned to braid my hair ish

# data[].attributes.body
Braiding my own hair was something I have been telling myself I wanted to accomplish for almost 4 years now so to actually be able to complete and attempt it on my own head was a big step up. Seeing as this was a long term goal of mine, and something that is not accomplished by all, it allowed me to further shape my identity by developing confidence in myself and my abilities. I am now able to also reflect my personality and creativity in a physical and personal way.

I joined Deca! Today was the day I completed my first role ply. I want to major in finance so I became vice president of our finance category and am competing in our finance team event so I can get a feel for it before I eventually choose it as my major. Joining Deca to better my future is an example of my taking responsibility for my future and participating in activities which I feel will help better myself and gain wisdom.

In June of 2026 I should be graduating high school at Great Bridge High. I´m so excited for this day but I feel like it´ll also be one of the saddest days for me as I will be leaving my parents.

In September of 2026, I shall begin my first year at George Mason University where I will be majoring in political science and minoring in finance. I will also hopefully be in on a full ride!

I´m hoping at least... that 3 months into college I will have a siginificant other. I have never payed attention to this type of thing before but I prefer to get married earlier so my plan is to start dating early in college as well!

By may of 2030 I will have graduated with my masters in political science! But not for long. This will allow me to begin my career as a future politician.

After previously graduating with a masters, back in September I will go back to attain my PhD. I will also be working on an internship opportunity in the white house just like my sister.

The wedding bells are ringing! By 2035 I shall be married to my future husband of hopefully at least 5 years and be wrapping up my Phd diploma. I will have a summer wedding in Cancun and it will be very extravagant.

By October of 2038 I will have 2 children ( twins) at the age of 31. We will live in northern Virginia down in Fairfax in a 3 story house by the beach. I don´t have a gender preference but I really like the name Seven and Estrella.

A large time gap I know, but I am not really sure the routes I have to partake in to get here but I would like to be elected as one of the firsts female presidents to run the country. I specifically left this 20 year period blank career wise so I have the freedom and opportunity to get my name out their first! I believe this experience would be categorized under the generativity v. stagnation of middle adulthood. Presidency is a life impacting career that is reflected on a country for decades. Such a career choice comes from the desire to make an impact on the world and avoid stagnation.

In January of 2054 I will not run for reelection and retire with my loving husband. My kids will be out in college and me and my husband will move to a small but classy 1 story house on a farm with vast land. I believe this experience can be categorized under Maturity. During this phase in my life I will be reflecting on all of my life´s work and accomplishments. Especially from my role as president, feeling as I have made my contribution to the world, I will experience ego integrity as I am proud of what I have accomplished.

I would like to live a long life. I am not necessarily saying I want to die in 2100 but by then I feel I would have lived a well rounded life. But I am leaving room for earlier or later, their is no definitive answer. But foremost I would like to have completed everything on this timeline beforehand.
