1. My name is Micaela Amalia Mays 2. My favorite emotion is probably joy. That feeling is a content and comforting feeling. Seeing joy in others peoples eyes or by their facial expressions brings this type of happiness that is unexplainable. Also by bringing other people joy it brings this comfort and security and it makes me feel good about myself and I wouldn’t want it any other way. 3. Something I love is being surrounded by the same energy. When the feelings are reciprocated and you feel that in your heart, it’s a really comforting feeling. Life feels right when I’m surrounded with the right people and energy. It doesn’t waste my time or energy and that’s what I love. It’s not about having to worry if someone loves the other person more, it’s all about the love and providing that same energy for one another. 4. Definitely any concert I have been too. When I think back to those times it’s just pure happiness and being in the moment. Thinking back to camp log gnaw 2018 I just remember standing in that crowd saying to myself this is where I need to be right now. Away from everything just being surround by people who have the same interests and vibe. Concerts/festivals are a getaway for me. It just helps me appreciate the small things in life and be more thankful for the life I live. 5. In 10 years I’m not really sure where I’m gonna be or what career path I’m going to take I’m still trying to figure that out which I feel like most of us are. But I do hope in 10 years I feel comfortable with my life. No chaos. I hope I am someone who is motivated to start the day in the morning, is excited to get out of bed, to see what the world has in store for me today. Live the day likes it’s my last. Loving a routine that I’m completely happy with. I just want to be able to live a life where I’m not confused anymore but I think that’s life and that’s the point to help guide me in the right direction, to learn from my mistakes and grow from it. 6. First thing I thought of was a$ap rocky because daddy but no seriously he could have me any day. I would just like to know his ideas on life and what makes him, him. 7. My happy place is being with my friends. They bring out this other side of me that i didn’t know I had. From everything going on in my life they are my source of happiness. They make life a lot more clearer and without them I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I think having connections with one another really helps us discover who we are as a person and that’s a big part of what life is all about, growing and experiencing life through one another. 8. I haven’t traveled enough to make that decision. Since I’ve traveled to Hawaii, it’s definitely a place where I could picture myself living for a little bit of time. But maybe Amsterdam because that’s where my boyfriends family is from and it’s a better lifestyle in my opinion then what the United States provides, more peaceful I expect then where I am but part of me is also la for life so I never know where I’m going to end up but somewhere I can feel content. 9. I don’t think there will every be a time where I can say I’m completely satisfied with life but I would like to think that and hope for that. I picture myself being “satisfied” when I’m older around 30 having my own home and a family to come home too. My safe place. I hope I find my security to do better not just for myself but for others. I want all my financial worries to go away to a point where I can feel comfortable with life and not dread everyday. 10. Our personality our morals who we are we are as a person makes up a soul. What we believe in, what motivates us and how we perceive the world. Who we also interact with can contribute to making up a soul. 11. Peace. That’s the first thing I thought of. We live in chaos world where no one can ever have peace. A life where we all care for one another, looking out for each other. I’m tired of all this sadness in this world and it attaches to others and it’s just going to become a never ending cycle. 12. That I am a boss ass bitch just kidding everyone already knows that. But first thing that came to mind is people don’t know the real insecurities I’m dealing with. It’s like a dark secret, it’s something that Im not ready to come to terms with and I’m not ready to express that to others. 13. It all depends on my mood and how I am feeling. Some days I love being around people and I love to converse but other times I’m antisocial and feel that I don’t know how to act when I’m around others. I think my problem is I overthink a lot of situations so it’s hard to put myself out there. It takes time for me to be comfortable with someone, it all takes time so my group is small, which at times can bother me but it’s about finding a happy medium with people who have the same mindset as me and energy. 14. I see myself as “all black” but I think it’s because of all the thoughts that run through my mind and my bad habits that have formed over time that I’m trying to work on but I do see the white. When the right people surround me, they help me see the light in myself and it’s helps me to learn to embrace it but it’s something that doesn’t come easy.
