Mini Biography/First Memory

My name is Selina and I am 20 years old. I was born in Lower Manhattan, but for the majority of my childhood I was raised in the Bronx, then when I turned 7 years I moved back to Manhattan permanently. My neighborhood in the Bronx holds a special place in my heart because that is where the most of my happiest moments as a child took place. In the Bronx is actually where I met my best friend at the time. I still remember this day like it was yesterday. It was a very snowy day in February, I was pretty new to the neighborhood still so I didn't have any friends. I was pretty lonely, roaming around my house in my pajamas. I remember looking out a window to the sheet of snow on the ground and there were two trees in front of my house and there I saw two girls that looked around my age and their mother. They were playing in the snow, putting snow up against the tree. I then ran to my mom and asked if I could go play outside in the snow with those two girls. So my mom made me quickly get dressed so I could go play with them before they left. I still remember all those uncomfortable layers my mom always made me wear because is was cold outside, I hated that. I put on my puffy sky blue coat on and dragged my mom outside with me and she had introduced me into my best friend and her mother and sister. We aren't as close now as we were when we were younger but friends grow apart as they grow up, however I still keep in contact with her.

Who Am I?

I am a 20-year-old college student, born and raised in New York City. I am a human services major. I do not have much experience with art. However, in high school I participated in an art class for about a semester. I also went to The Frederick Museum and saw some art there. I like to look at art, as long as there is red involved because that is my favorite color.
