MY LIFE

My name is Ivelisse Barreto Vargas. My friends call me Ivel and Ivelsita. I was

born on October 9th, 1988. I am 21 years old. I live in Moca,

Puerto Rico.I am a loving,

responsible, and dedicated young woman. I am far

from being perfect, and I enjoy the fact that I’m not. I try to

be unique and special in my own

way.

My family

This is my family. I’m the first daughter and the big sister. I love my family with all my heart. My mom is my Hero, everything that I am, is because of her. She is my best friend and my biggest inspiration. I have a special bond with my little brother and sister. All my life I have tried to make all the correct decisions, so I can give them a great example. I call them my guardian angels.

My FriendsThroughout my whole life I have had many friends. Some had stayed, others have

stayed only in my past, and some I have yet

met. All those persons have let good and bad memories in my heart,

but I don’t regret meeting them because

they made me a stronger person and a better friend. These people in my photos,

are my best true friends. They have been by my side in

good times and in bad times. I am blessed

with their presence in my life.

My other best friendThis is my boyfriend, and my other best friend. He is very

important to me. I am very fortunate to have met him and to have him in my life. He has taught me to count my blessings,

to become a better person, to cherish love, happiness and life, and most of all he has taught me to never give up on the ones

you love.

LikesI love sleeping. Who doesn’t right? I love spending time with my family, and with

my boyfriend and his family. I have a passion for writing. I write poems, songs,

quotes… You name it! I feel a sort of freedom when I start writing.

I don’t like getting up early. I don’t like coffee, pancakes, or seafood. I dislike

politics/religion/cars topic conversations. I hate waking up in the best part of my dreams. I dislike people

who think they are perfect.

Dislikes

Favorite Movies

I also enjoy watching movies. I have a lot of favorites movies. I believe that movies have the power to make you feel and to make you learn. Some movies and their

characters has made me cry, smile, identify my self with their stories, and they

have made me reflect on life and its different experiences and situations. These

movies have made me reflect on family, education, love, and sacrifices.
