Introducing Myself.

Hey everyone, I'm Kiomi. I turned 18 on graduation day, and I am currently majoring in Psychology. My life's been pretty hectic, with moving around the world (against my will!), welcoming others into my family, and dealing with the regular teenage scenarios. I was born in Peru, where I saw my mother and father fight over me and my brother constantly. At 7, my mother moved us to Japan, where I spent 4 years of my life. I've truly been blessed over the years; seeing different cultures, learning various languages, and meeting countless people. I moved to the U.S.A. at the age of 11, and yet again, I was forced to learn another language. My father's been an absent figure in my life ever since I was 7, physically and economically. His absence made me realize how strong and independent of a woman my mom is, and that's why I was happy when she fell in love with my step dad. On a sunny Valentine's Day (cliché, I know), they got married. About a year later, he decided to go back to his roots to Italy, bringing me and my mom along this time. Can you imagine? Although I hated he fact of moving across the world, turns out the best time of my life was spent in Europe. I moved back to Florida in the middle of my sophomore year, where I started school at Barron Collier High. To this day, seeing various cultures and traveling still fascinates me. As far as personality goes, I'm a friendly, down-to-earth, and I guess you could say very sarcastic person. I wasn't very labeled in high school because I got along with just about everyone. My goal in life isn't to have a lot of money, or to have the best job in town. It's simply to be happy with who I am, what I've done, and what I've got.
