When I was about 10, my parents became more strict and I couldn´t do a lot of things such as going out, hanging with my friends and etc. But,

Around this time, I was almost thoroughly done with my first year of middle school. I was focused on school and tried my best to do good. I started to understand the concepts of life and harder questions that I wouldn´t if I was younger. I was able to learn new things and apply them to reality.

Around this time, I was in elementary school. I was lowkey scared of police officers and I would always befriend the teachers. Since I was young, I would try to be a good student to get in minimal trouble. I didn´t like to be in trouble and I was always quiet. I wanted the adults to have a good reflection and opinion of me.

Awhile back, my mom used to have this jade bracelet and one time I really wanted to wear it so I had begged. She finally gave in and let me wear it to church. Long story short, I came home without it and I didn´t know how to tell my mom. When she found out, I was sitting on the couch anxious for my punishment. I tried to tell her that my cousin took it and ran off but she wouldn´t budge. She had whopped me a couple of times and I had marks.

I was about 13 and I was living my life under certain beliefs. Most of them were carried by my parents and living under the same roof, I had to follow them. Growing up, I faced things that I had no control over. My values and beliefs changes. I was gradually becoming a different person and what I valued, wasn´t the same as my parents. I began to rebel more and speak back.

I was born not too long ago and I was living my life freely as a baby, I don´t remember much but I think I was a good baby. Around this time, I was able to see if i trust someone because growing up, I didn´t like strangers.

I was about 2-3 years old and livng my best life. I didn´t have anything to worry about and there was nothing stressing me out. I was curious and awanted to try things on my own.

Around this time, I was about 5 years old. I had the wildest imagination and quite a collection of barbie dolls. I played around a lot and my thinking was fascinating. I learned quite a lot of basic things to know and I used them in future situations. I would say that I tended to follow what I saw; ¨monkey see, monkey do¨.

I was in middle school around this time and was about 11-12 years old. Throughout middle school, I had obviously learned a lot but haven´t reached my learning capacity. I was becoming and molding into a young adult and I had responsibilities. Doing things wasn´t easy so I did better with encouragement and nice words. I was a mentally weak girl so those helped. I needed some support to help me get through things.

This is the most recent event of my timeline as it´s of my current age and place in life. I'm a young adult still trying to find the meaning of life and I´m growing mentally and physically and I´m shaping into a pretty responsible adult. I still have things to learn about, but I´m confused. I don´t want to live my adult years as a failure.
