Wedding Event ( May 2012)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:30:24 UTC

Specifically this was a wedding event, but usually for all kinds of events my mom would always put us in matching dresses. I loved it so much and now as we're older we get to see all those pictures of us matching and I think it's so cute.

Christmas/My birthday (Dec 2012)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:35:42 UTC

My birthday is on Christmas Eve the 24th, so we would celebrate both events on the same day.

You can kind of tell I'm really shy, I didn't like everyone looking at me even though it was just my family. It just made me nervous.

Spider Man car (Dec 2012)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:41:57 UTC

Lots of memories and photos in this car at the store. Every time we would go here we would get on and ask our mom to take a picture.

Denny's (2013)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:45:56 UTC

This was our favorite restaurant by far! We would always get this chocolate ice cream dessert. We still go there very often but they sadly don't have this dessert anymore.

Went there this past weekend.

Childhood Horse (2011)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:48:46 UTC

This is me and my little sister in the photo. This horse was used all hours of the day according to my mom. She said once one of us would get off the next one would get on, we loved it so much.

Renaissance Festival (2012)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:51:42 UTC

In the photo its my two sisters and my dad on the elephant ride at the renaissance. I don't even remember if I was scared or if i was excited or maybe even both, but I got on.

Cheer (Jan. 2023, Sophomore)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 20:57:25 UTC

I used to be so shy when I was younger, even my mom thought I would be the one to not be in many activities because I was super shy compared to my sisters.

Somehow I ended up being in more extra curricular activities than my sisters and trying out for cheer my sophomore year, which little me would not believe I did. Definitely an amazing experience and truly is a reason I was able to build my communication skills.

Soccer (Dec. 2023, Junior)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 21:17:41 UTC

As mentioned I did many activities, this is another one of them. I had never played when I was little, but I got into soccer my freshman year and was chosen for Co-Captain for my Junior year, and even though I didn't talk much or know much about soccer many of my teammates would come to me for advice.

I truly didn't want to be Co-Captain, but because I didn't believe I had what it took to be a leader for our team. In the end, I realized my teammates didn't expect me to be vocal about things; they knew I was more of a one-on-one conversation person, and they would talk to me when it would be just me and them. Overall though I did learn a lot of leadership skills through this sport, the following year as a senior I was Captain of our soccer team:)!

15 Pictures in Dallas (Summer 2025)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 21:18:48 UTC

Me and my sisters took pictures with our 15 dresses on. This is just a sneak peek into what the photos looked like, we also took individual pictures on a horse they came out so beautiful!!

We are super close as siblings we're only 3 years apart, and we don't ever really fight at all. We like to talk about things that bother us or in general love to talk about anything.

Band (2024)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 21:28:15 UTC

This is also another one of my curricular activities. I was in band since my 6th grade year, and all throughout my high school years. I was in the Leadership Team until my Senior Year, I could've joined sooner but I was in many things and wasn't sure I could do it. Turns out I could've done it, but I'm still glad I was in the leadership team for one year, definitely another big reason I gained leadership and communication skills as well.

Matching (Jan 2025)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 21:57:04 UTC

Till this day, me and my sisters love to match. Not necessarily the same exact clothes but match by wearing the same color. Usually we have a color shirt theme every time we go out, I have many photos of us matching!

Recreation Renaissance Festival (Nov. 2023)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 22:06:07 UTC

Recreation of the renaissance photo from when we were younger, except this time my mom is in the photo and my older sister isn't in the photo because she was actually working at the renaissance in another area.

Surgery (April 2025)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 22:39:02 UTC

This past year both my older sister and really close family friend had knee surgery around the same time and I was helping them both on their exercises to gain mobility back in their leg, but it was hard seeing them upset and hurting.

It was truly eye opening, to not take our mobility for granted for a second, because one day it could go away and it'll be hard.

Middle Sister (2015)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 23:24:18 UTC

This happened too often with them fighting and me just in the middle not saying anything. Anywhere we were I always had to sit in between them, but honestly I thought it was funny, you can clearly tell in the picture I wasn't bothered by it, I just let them talk and communicate every time.

Animal Shelter (May 2025)

12gomezyg — 2025-09-22 23:42:04 UTC

For my Vet Med class we had a field trip to the animal shelter and we got to take the dogs a shower, I was all over the animal shelter helping where I could. I was everyone's partner for showering the dogs, I probably showered like 5 dogs in just the little time we were there.

Common Threads?

12gomezyg — 2025-09-23 00:07:34 UTC

I used to and still do a lot of things with my sisters growing up, of course we had a couple disagreements here and there but never to where we would argue and be mad at each other for days, that's not how we grew up to be. As for me, I was much more shy before and even as I was growing up through everything I was doing I was still shy on the inside, its just always who I've been but I've learned to adjust to what I have learned and know when and where to apply my communicate skills and still be myself at the same time.

Personality Strengths?

12gomezyg — 2025-09-23 00:19:12 UTC

Everything I did revealed so many strengths I truly believed I did not have in me, but my coaches, teammates, teachers, band director saw it in me even when I couldn't. I never thought I could step out of my comfort zone and be loud for cheer, lead my soccer team , lead my section in band, it's crazy to think the whole time I was capable of all that and Junior high me was scared of being open to new things.

Chart the Future:

12gomezyg — 2025-09-23 00:24:22 UTC

All my extra curricular activities have taught me to communicate well with others, and know how to lead people whenever its needed for my career whether it's simple just for another coworker. My Vet Med class, going to that animal shelter and getting to shower dogs for our class and being in the FFA club are a big part of what will help me in my future, I have experience with different type of animals and know how to identify species because of FFA Contest.
