I am a 16 year old female growing up in Englewood, New Jersey. I enjoy programing, creative writing, and music. I spend a lot of time listening and playing music. I play the drums and I also enjoy singing. I have spent a lot of time doing community service and working around the school and the library.

This particular school has received such high praises regarding education and religious experience. I attended The Our Lady of Mount Carmel School, in Tenafly, New Jersey, from 2nd grade through 5th grade. I told my parents that I enjoyed learning various subjects and the educational experience.

I can only imagine what my mother must be going though. My mother is one of the strongest individuals that I know, these individuals are: her mother, sister, brother and husband I do not know how she is still standing. The faith, courage and strength that she has is
