I chose this song because I was named after it. This song means a lot to me not just because I was named after it. This song really describes me as a person and has really helped me grow into who I am today. I chose this because I really relate to the lyrics "She's the queen of all I've seen" because my dad used to always call me a princess and that really reminds me of that.

Red

I think that the best color to represent me is red. Red is the best color to describe me because I am a competitive person and I tend to end up angry a lot. I think that red also represents me because I am a very romantic person and I love romance and small gestures that show off love and romance.

I chose this song because I feel like it represents an overthinking girl. I really relate to the lyrics that say "I know that you love me, you don't need to remind me, put it all behind me" because they just show how someone can overthink so much and then just try to forget about it and act like it never happened. I also chose this song because I feel like just so many teen age girls relate to it and I think that it just shows how much people can just act and how you don't really know what is going on in someones mind.

I really want this song to play at my wedding. I feel like this song is just such a romantic song and it as a sweet melody. Its heartfelt lyrics about lasting love just makes me feel so good and so if it were to play at my wedding I feel like it would just make the day so much better. When the lyrics "Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with our between my arms barefoot on the grass listening to or favorite song" I really want to recreate this moment, it's been a dream of mine ever since I was a little girl to so if I can do it I know that it would make this little girl in me so happy.

When I played on FCArizona for around 4 years it was great. My dad and my best friends step dad was my coach so I felt really comfortable there. When they had decided to quit, we got a new coach and he was good, but then a lot of drama started to happen. I would get bullied and girls would try to hurt me during practice. I was too scared to go to my parents about this but eventually I knew I had to. When they found out my coach was informed and so he told me he would talk to the players. After a while nothing had changed and so then at a tournament in Vegas I had finally had enough of it and decided to quit. This showed me that if I'm really not happy with something I can get out of it and that I don't have to stay just because I'm scared to leave. So I think this song really helps show that when you get messed with and pushed around you can jump back up again.

Who am I

34033355 — 2025-05-19 02:35:03 UTC

My name is Lyla Kraay, I am 15 years old from Maricopa, Arizona. I have played soccer ever since I was 3 years old. I did dance when I was 5, baseball at 6, basketball at 4, flag football at 14, gymnastics at 7-10, golf at 12 to present, and swim when I was 13. Obviously being an athlete is very important to me but the most important thing to me is God. My religion is a big part of my life, its helped me become a better person and surround myself around good people.

How people see me

I am seen as many things by many people. I am seen as a fighter, funny, kind friend, confident, pretty, and so much more. My parents see me as a strong, funny, nice, athletic, caring, and smart. While my friends see me as a pretty, caring, confident, and reliable person. Everyone has a different view of me, I'm sure that some people see me as someone who is rude or annoying as others see me as a kind and outgoing person, it all depends on if you know me or how you have seen me.

Quote

"Someone loves everything you hate about yourself" -Frank Ocean. I love this quote because it really just shows how you could hate one thing and then someone else could just love it. This shows how no matter what someone will always love you for the way you are, and maybe even more.

Impacts

There are many people that have impacts on me but the person who has the biggest is my dad. Me and my dad have always had an amazing bond and he's really shown me how a true man should treat me. I think that my dad has really helped me understand life at a level that I would have never without him. My dad has helped me learn so many lessons and teach me how to stand up for myself. My dad is really my best friend and a great influence on me.

Me and Okonkwo

Me and Okonkwo are similar in many ways. Just like Okonkwo I am very courageous, I love to take steps outside of my comfort zone and take risks. I am also disciplined just like Okonkwo, I make sure I am asleep by 10 every night and I always make sure to focus on soccer and work super hard. me and Okonkwo are also both very independent and we both try to avoid depending on others.
