Being a high school student is hard because you have too much going on and it’s just not school you have going on.
Eminelli Escribano is a 10th grader that is 14 years old. She turns 15 on October 16. She always tries her best at school. She’s Puerto Rican but was born in Michigan but she can’t even speak spanish when she was little she was learning spanish with her dad but then when she went to her mom’s she was only teaching her English so that’s why she has trouble speaking spanish but she can understand it than she can speak it. Some of her friends and family will sometimes talk to her in Spanish so she can start to get better at understanding and talking in spanish.
She’s been going to Wyoming for 4 years and came to Wyoming in 6th grade. “I like playing soccer and volleyball, they are my favorite sports but I’m not too good at it so I just play it for fun”, She said. In her free time she likes to hang out with her friends and spend as much time with them as she can.. She has 3 brothers and 3 sisters. Two of her siblings are older and four are younger so she is around the middle child on both her mom’s and her dad’s side. When she was younger she would hang out with her cousins 24/7. She loves her cousins to death and loves the bond that they have and even used to live with some of them. She’s a talkative person, crazy,energetic but also shy and nice to people. She always tries to help others out in a way. One of her favorite places to go eat is Starbucks and she hates seafood because she doesn’t like the taste and texture of it. Her biggest fear is losing the people she loves.
A thing that motivates her to work hard is her best friends and her family. Also when she gets good grades it helps her think that she can do it so it motivates her a lot and music does too. One of her favorite subjects is Spanish and Gym class.
Eminelli has two closest best friends Lexi and Cindy she trusts them with her life there like a sister to her and they mean the world to her she knows she can always count on them. Eminelli has known Lexi for 2 years and Cindy for 1 year and got close to them so quickly. She doesn’t know 100 percent sure what she wants to do but she likes helping people out so she wants to do something where she can help people out or even if it’s not just doing something that makes her happy. In 5 years she sees herself either in college or doing things that she loves and hopes she sees herself with the people that she loves and hopes she doesnt lose them.
Eminelli has moved to 10 different schools. It’s been something she has been dealing with since a little girl. But when she got to Wyoming she has been here four 4 years and hasn’t moved even though she was almost going to move schools last year. As well as moving schools a lot she would also move houses a lot she never liked moving houses nor schools she hated having to start fresh. Reasons she would move a lot would be because of personal problems or just normal reasons. Eminelli said that she thinks that she finally is gonna stay in this school for the rest of high school which she is happy about because she has made some really good friends and made lots of memories.
“Something I never liked doing was moving schools because I wouldn’t like having to make new friends then having to leave them. So my advice would be just to stay positive doing it and just try not let it affect you too much and just try not to get used to a school too much cause you never know,” Eminelli said.
