In Between Spring & Summer

Once upon a time there’s a young girl named Lanae. She’s a regular teenage girl but, she has one difference from anyone else her color is yellowish-green. When her mother gave birth to her, her skin tone’s green. Green representing she’s mature and don’t know any better. When Lanae suppose to become mature and grow up, her color changes to yellow. Instead of changing to yellow, Lanae becomes both colors combined. She realizes that she’s stuck in between growing up and being a child. This relates to me because I’m stuck in between my spring and my summer. Me being still in spring, I can still be selfish about things. I don’t like to share my food, my things or anything else that is mine. Also I am very playful. But, I can be very serious about important things that matter.

Selfish is caring about only oneself. I’m selfish at times because I do not like to share anything especially when it comes to my favorite foods. When I get my favorite treat, “chocolate” I would start eating it then my little brother Tyler would come along asking “ Can I have some, Chy?” Respond by saying “ No…” Then I would start teasing him about it and get mad running to my mom crying about how I didn’t share with him.

Along with being selfish I can also be playful. Playing around with my brothers, my mom (sometimes…), and my friends, is what I love to do most of the time. Sometimes I will start messing wit my little brother, I would be all in his face saying, “ Guess what, guess what, guess what?” over and over again until he pops.
He will ever hit me or push me until I leave him alone.

Why I can say I am almost near the summer of my life is because I can be serious. I went to Ohio to visit my uncle. He let me have a tour of Ohio State University and take a college course to get ahead. I was at the front building, shivering because of how nervous I am. When all of a sudden I hear a voice says, “ Chyann, are you just going to stand there?” It was my uncle who was trying to help me find the classroom I would be in.

Relating how I am between spring & summer, I have my reasons; it’s selfish, playful and focused on my future what most young teenage kids are like. Selfishness and playfulness is a part of being a kid. But, seriously I am focused on my future of becoming a lawyer. The dream can come true if you want it to.
