    Beginning

    My name is Paula Cristina Mendoza Carrion. I was born in Bayamon, Puerto Rico in June 3 of 1996. My mom is Raquel Carrion, from Puerto Rico; and my dad is Alfredo Mendoza, From Colombia. I have two younger sisters called Raquel and Angelica. My family is the most beautiful thing. My culture is kind of a mix with the puertorrican and colombian. My beginning is with my family and they are the purpose of why I live, because they make me grow as a daughter, sister and person.

    My adolescents for me has been the years that marked for the rest of my life, because of those years I am the person that I am today. The economic things in Puerto Rico were starting to fall. My mom got cancer, and was unemployed after they told her. She got cancer free. A few months after my grandfather. Then a good cousin of my mom passed away, it was very hurtful for her. Then when I was 16 my grandmother passed away, and then my family wasn't the same anymore. Then my mom decided to move.

    Throughout this years my personality grew with all the qualities my parents saw in me. I started school so I learn to write, read, draw and paint. I loved to read and write in my journal. I was in ballet classes and even taking piano classes. My whole family was complete, and everything was like a fairy tale for me.
