Assignment 22: That's a weird combo- Sam Chavez

I'm a Floridian, a Minnesotan, a Coloradan, a Mexican, and maybe even an Italian you'd have to ask my Mom. This unusual mix of characters shapes the unique 5'8 beast they call Sam today. From air boating in the swamps of Florida, to ice skating on our backyard lake in Minnesota, to panning for gold with my grandparents in Colorado, all the way to seeing photos of my Dad's grandma, who I never got he honor of meeting, my different experiences have shaped my character into something special to me. This life full of experiences has already lended me skills that I never thought I'd have. I can effectively run away from an alligator hiding under my moms car (yes that happened), I can hit 50 MPH sledding down a hill into lake, I can pan for gold, and I can make a pretty decent Tamale. Moving states and learning many cultures in my 16 years of life have already shaped a unique person out of me, and the scary part is, Im just getting started.
