Introduction

Growing up in Belize City near Victoria St. I lived in a home with a family of 4. I have 3 siblings, all boys. My entire childhood I was surrounded by boys because I've never had any sisters or female cousins around my age. I was a very quiet and intelligent child growing up.

Education

At the ripe age of 3, I started St. Mary's Anglican Primary School. Where I learned and experienced many things. I was known to place 1st place in every class I went into. Until std 2 when my dad fell sick, I was not in the right mindset because I was worried that I would lose my father, my source of happiness. So I too, then fell sick and missed 3 months of school and my rank dropped to 7th place. I was very disappointed with myself but I ended up getting back onto my feet, I later completed 12 years there and I was St. Mary's 2020 Valedictorian.

My life Partner

I met Paris in 2020 and we've been my Best Friends ever since. Paris and I do everything together. I tell her everything and she tells me everything. She's my safe place and the person I love the most. She's the sister I've always wanted. I look forward to experiencing more things with her and continuing our friendship.

Future Me

In the future, I hope to be a multi-business owner. I want to offer things to Belize that the country has never had to improve the interactions and services in the country. I plan to start multiple businesses but I'm the type of person to keep things private until I actually achieve them. I want to be successful and live a happy and contented life. One way or the other I will make my dream come true. As I believe that I am my own Genie.

The Crash that changed my life

When I was 10 years old, My family and I were traveling to a horse race because my dad loved betting on horses, so we always went to them. Our drive to the horse race was smooth. We were blasting music, singing loud, and enjoying the cool breeze through the windows of the car. The horse race went well but my dad ended up losing his bet. Coming back home, my father was furious and couldn't stop cursing and expressing how angry he was about losing. He kept lifting his hand off of the steering wheel and we kept telling him to pay attention to the road. He lost control of the car and the car drove off the side of the road and rolled down to the bottom of nowhere. Everyone got injured and I got cuts on my body from the glass. Ever since then, I've been terrified of traveling and I won't step foot in a car going on the road unless they convince me long and hard to.

Book worm

I enjoy reading books specifically books about romance because I love reading about people's love experiences and looking at love from different perspectives.

A look back

leyahneal — 2023-10-05 15:11:58 UTC

Reflecting Back on everything, I've noticed that it's hard for me to make friends because I'm a very antisocial person and I don't speak unless I'm spoken to. This has stopped me from experiencing and being a part of many things because I lost my chance from my anti-socialness.

Conclusion

leyahneal — 2023-10-05 15:17:36 UTC

I've given a proper background and overview of my life and myself. I look forward to improving so much in the future and fixing things about myself that I feel are holding me back from everything.

My challenges

leyahneal — 2023-11-07 15:47:21 UTC

I found that it is really hard for me to control my anger and my tolerance. I don't think that I am a horrible person, I blame others for the way I react. Which isn't something good for me to do but it prevents me from feeling guilty. I don't have high tolerance for things and I am easily irritated. When i'm mad or upset, I don't know how to express my feelings so I do it by shouting and spamming out on others. I don't think that this behavior is healthy for me or the people around me. So, I plan to work on it for the new year, not only for me but for the people I love.

Ephesians 4:15

leyahneal — 2023-11-07 15:59:56 UTC

In order to grow i've learned to understand things that are in my control and that are out of my control. I've learned that I can only tolerate what is in my control. If it is out of reach then it is out of reach for a reason. God made it out of my control so that he can take care of it. It took me a while to learn that concept. But when I did, life became much easier.
