What I was like as a child

As a child I tended to be quiet and shy, but I was a lot more outgoing with my friends. I loved to ride my bike around the block and thought I was so cool when I could go all the way around with out holding on to the handle bars. I always had a lot of chores and quickly learned to rush through them so that I could play outside or at my friends houses. I moved all the time and lived in 4 states before I turned 18 California, Utah, Virginia, and Arizona. I never lived in a house longer than four and a half years. Most of the time it was a lot less than that. I had to learn to make new friends quickly. I always had a few good friends I could count on. When I was seven I started piano lessons. This was my dream! I loved to play the piano. I never had to be told to practice, I chose to. I memorized almost every piece I had to learn every week. I put all my emotion into the piano, it was my safe place, another world I could escape into. It is the same piano I have and play on today.
