Introduction

Hello my name is Maddie and today I’m writing a blog for my AP Lang class. I’ve never written a blog before, so if you are reading this please bear with me. My first post is going to be about myself. So in general it’s going to be really boring. Sorry! Okay here we go. As you already know my name is Maddie and I live in a very small place in the United States that almost no one remembers except for the ones that live here. I have a Mom and a Dad and two siblings, a brother and a sister, both are older. Yes I am the baby so some of you will probably think I am spoiled and get whatever I want. To be honest with you it’s pretty much true, I love being the baby of my family. Everyone is super protective of you and you DO get spoiled but I can promise you I am not a spoiled brat. I am really close with my mom’s side of the family, I think of all of them as my immediate family. I have 3 Aunts, 4 Uncles, 6 cousins and 2 grandparents. Now the person I look up to the most in my family is my uncle Jerry. My uncle Jerry was like my second father, my siblings and I were very close to him but sadly my uncle passed away 3 years ago. It was the most devastating thing that has ever happened to my family, none of us had lost someone so close to us in our entire lives, it was like losing your best friend, father, uncle and role model all in one day. To say that it is still excruciatingly painful to think about is an understatement, no one can or will ever replace him. He was an amazing person, the best person I’ve ever known. Even though it has been three years, to this day it still affects my family every day. Hopefully my family will grow from this the best they can and we can all hopefully do my uncle Jerry proud. So that is a little bit about me. Thank you for reading this blog if anyone actually did. Sorry if it was boring!
