About Me!
My name is Dannie Perez and I am a current senior at Mark Keppel High School. Come this May I will be the first girl in my family from generations and generations to graduate from high school over all and will then my the first female to move on to a high education. Going through these past four years wasn't easy, but with the help of my God, friends, and loved ones I made it through. This fall I plan on attending either William Jessup University or San Diego Christian College and pursue a Bachelors degree in Liberal studies with a credential in Elementary Education. Following this career, I desire to teach abroad in countries that are in need of education for children. Ever since I could remember I've had a passion to work with kids, so even though this job may not be the highest paying job in the world, it's definitely something I love doing and will no doubt continue this for the rest of my life.
The best way to describe me is as a "bubbly" type of person; at least that's how most of my friends describe me. To understand me a bit more, here are a couple things you should know. I am a type of girl that would pick converse shoes over vans any day, I have a crush on a guy who doesn't even know I exist, and I tend to get lost in my daydreams. I also care more about music then popularity, I consider metal-core my lullaby, and I am socially awkward. I speak my mind but only in my head, I want to be rebellious but too scared of getting caught, and I prefer books then movies. This is who I am.

My Faith I grew up in the church, born and raised with the Southern Baptists. All my life I've known who Jesus Christ is and what He did to show His love for me. My Faith isn't built on religion but rather on a personal relationship. Christ took His life for us, the least we can do is thank Him and trust He is going to get us through anything; I need to trust He is going to get me through anything.
High school wasn't very nice when it came to my Faith. Not the people in particular, just the environment. I had to learn very quickly that the people I choose to hang out with are going to have an impact on me. I had to make a decision weather I wanted to be influenced with the wrong people just because it was "cool" or surround myself with a better crowd. At first it was hard because I wanted to not be picked on for being a "chicken". This attitude affected me my first two years of high school. When I finally decided I didn't want to act that way anymore, I learned the hard way just how bad I almost destroyed my future. Starting with my grades I worked hard just to bring them up, is wasn't easy but when I finally found friends that accepted me for who I am, they got me through it. My Faith is very important to me, and I refuse to deny it anymore. |
That's so Punk Rock I love listening to punk rock, metal-core and post-hardcore type of music. People say that my type of music is "nothing but screaming" or it's the "satan worshiping" kind of music. But honestly...you call it demonic because you hear screaming, I call it life saving because I hear the meaning. On days I don't go outside, I like looking up the latest as well as the newest upcoming bands out there. Every time I find a new band or artist some people might see me obsessing over them, but actually I am just being a professional Fangirl. My love and passion for the genre has taught me that it is ok the be a "freak" and stand up for what I love and believe in; even if it means standing alone. I use music as an escape, and that's not going to change. A lot of people might look at me or can look at me and judge based on my appearance or what my attitude is. But they can't judge me until they get to know me. To most I look quiet, but honestly I am loud ass heck. Don't judge a book by it's cover.
