Who am I?

I wish I could write more than three paragraphs but I guess this will have to be it. My name is Kelvin Santana I’m 17 years old and I'm from San Juan Puerto Rico. I live with my mother, grandmother, aunt, uncle, cousin and brother; not a pretty normal lifestyle but I couldn't imagine living without all of them, the most important people in my life. I entered to University Gardens High School in ninth grade scared and really not wanting to, but it was definitely one of the best decisions I've ever made and now I’m currently in my senior year.

I’m a very happy person I love to laugh and make people laugh. Even though sometimes I could be a little careless and selfish to other people, which is something I'm trying to change, I try to always be in my best humor. I like hanging out with my friends, going to the beach, playing volleyball and to always have a good time. I’m very creative, I love arts & crafts and photography, I'm not a professional but I do it as a hobby to get my mind distracted sometimes. I always wanted to learn how to play the piano I know a little bit but one of my goals is to learn how to play it well.


When I was a kid I loved animals and I would say that I wanted to be a veterinarian when I grow up. Today I still think the same way, I love nature and animals and my dream is to study marine biology or anything related to the help of animals. I would also love to work in a marine animal rehabilitation center to have the chance to work and help rescuing endangered species or stranded marine mammals and sea turtles.
