Sheldon Kemp

My name is Sheldon Kemp , and i don’t have a nickname so i would just prefer to be called by my normal name. As for pronouns i would prefer to be addressed as HE/HIM.majority of my family is from Jamaica however I grew up and lived here in Brooklyn, NY my whole life. I am currently 18 years old and my birthday is June 17th. I recently graduated from high school and i know that going straight to college right after will be a challenge but I am ready for it . I Already have set goals for these next few school years for example managing my time accordingly   less procrastination , etc.  I will work as hard as i can because it will all pay off when i graduate.

Music is a very important part of my life . I listen to music for every occasion for example , doing chores , homework , getting dressed , etc . Music also helps me greatly when taking test’s because while i study i usually pick one specific song to listen to and then before the test i play that same song to trigger my memory Which helps a lot .  The world would be dull without music , commercials contain music , your favorite stores always have music playing even some elevators have music playing . Music is a really important part of me and i don’t know what I’d do without it .

 

Mauwa Soumahoro

My name is Mauwa Soumahoro but I prefer to be called Mawa Soum, only because most people don’t really know how to pronounce my name. I am a female so I would definitely prefer HER/SHE due to all respect. Furthermore i was born and raised in New York City, literally grew up in the Bronx my whole life. High school was a very complicated road for me overall. I put my all into getting my education, now that I am now a college student I have set standards for myself. My goal is to never give up on myself no matter how difficult or stressful it can’t be. Everyday won’t be a rainy day for you. Eventually the sun will rise which means the more I work hard, in the end it’ll all be worth everything. 
   Moving on, someone very meaningful to me is my parents. The love that I have for them is unconditional and means more than a lot to me. Seeing them struggle together and even motivate one another made me look at family in a different way. Family is something that shouldnt be played with , it should be taken very seriously and also treated with love. When my parents are able to get along and sort out their differences it truly brings the family together and also brings nothing but the best into our home. I am an only child so I do get to have things my way but when I’m wrong then it is normal for me to face the consequences. Although my dad isn’t alive anymore, my mother does work very hard to make sure she can provide for me at all times. She does a great job playing both roles as a parent, so it is only right for me to do everything that I can to be successful. Everything that I do in this world is for both my mom and dad, most importantly it’ll be beneficial for me in the future.
