My introduction

My name is Danayja'. I can be described as a kindhearted person; if I have something, I want my friends and family to have it, too. My dream is to study pre-law and one day become a lawyer. I love learning new things when it comes to school, but one thing I dislike is the heavy workload we receive. Even though I dislike the work, I realize that it helps motivate me. For example, History is not my favorite subject, but I realize it is a class I have to take in order to graduate. I don't have a favorite teacher.
    I am not proud of humanity today. Everywhere we look, there are people being murdered without good reason, raped, and committing suicide because they were bullied. I feel we all should be one and not be so mad at the world. So many people are murdered for silly reasons, such as looking at another person the wrong way. I have been touched by a murder in my own family; my cousin, Dex, was killed in 2010 at a bar, even though all the witnesses say he was minding his own business. Till this day, my family and I still hear stories from people who were there when he was shot. My cousin could still be alive today if everybody put the weapons away and live life like normal people.
