“My name is Claraliz Made and I am a sophomore. I was born in Fort Myers, Florida. Some of my hobbies are reading and playing the violin. I started playing violin int the fifth grade because I was offered an opportunity. People thought I should join the orchestra so I did because I thought it could be fun. I want to be an accountant when I graduate because math has always been my strongest skill. I just find myself enjoying math more than any other class. Even though I want to be an accountant, if I decide I want to change my mind in the future, maybe I’ll professionally play the violin. I have been through some hard times in my life, but I often tell myself that the problems are not going to be there in the future and that I will be okay. I am inspired by my mom and my siblings. My mom does so much, but she always manages to keep a smile on her face. She always tells me to try my best even after all the things we have been through. My siblings inspire me too because they are always persevering, and they do not care what other people think. I want to be like them, because I care too much. I tend to be very childish and playful now a days because I had a rough childhood, but sometimes it is hard because others judge me for it. Do not let people make you feel bad for being excited!” Sophomore Claraliz Made said.
