I have always had an interest in art. I enjoy drawing and painting, so naturally I would want to do something to incorporate those into the profession I have chosen. However, for much of my life, I wanted to be something that made an abundant amount of money to please my mother. My mother only wanted this for me to assure her that I would not be in the situation she has been in her entire life. Still to this day, she does not want me to become something that will provide little money, but I do not

But due to conformity I am not able to do all that I want. For example, I love to wear tank tops. Muscle tank tops are my favorite. But school rules in force no shoulder showing. I have to conform to their rules each day I go school and I am unable too fully express myself the way I want. My creative nature is brushed aside for a

I am part of a unique culture and subculture, but it is not an active participation. My culture is Cajun and my subculture is southern. I'm not really sure how I am apart of it, I do not really do anything that follows it. I am no “southern belle,” I have a mouth like a sailor and the mannerisms to match.
