1. Tawana’Danyelle SmithPast, Present, and Future

2. Past My name is Tawana’ Danyelle Smith. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, at a hospital called Coney Allen Hospital. There my parents were Ronnie Smith Sr. and Sheila Dennis Smith. I am the middle of five kids. Living in New York as a child I grew up with a fast mind set. I was always quick on my toes, when it came to doing chores, homework, or evening learning how to ride a bicycle. In New York, I developed a since of mind to want to become very legendary, very great, and exceptional. Then finally living in New York came to an end. As a child my parents thought moving toward the south which my father was from Virginia. Would build a more equip life for my brothers and sister, and I. So Starting in the beginning of my teenage years around age 14, my parents made the move.

3. Present Around age 14, moving to Virginia. My parents assumed the best for all their children, but hen it came to me, It was not. I was finishing up my last year of junior high about to start high school. While attending public schools in Virginia. I was tortured, bullied by kids for talking differently, paper thrown at my hair and getting made fun because of my dressing style. I couldn’t even walk in a classroom full of kids without getting teased, pushed around, and literally almost spit on. I had the worst child hood growing up. Until the day, I received my High School Diploma, and from that day, I decided to try to love myself, and just grow up to be someone effiently great and to ignore the bad and work from it.

4. Future Currently, as a grown women, I still have some insecurities from my childhood, but that pushed me to go to college and finish college. The idea of getting bullied all those years really took a toll on my life. It actually brought me further toward my career and to GOD. In 2006 while looking for a summer job in Manhattan, New York. I was blessed with the opportunity to intern and work at a corporate fashion company in New York, called Roca Wear. Which was a very elite corporation. There I gained knowledge, understanding, wisdom, respect, and self-esteem, even a lifetime opportunity to go back after receiving my bachelor’s degree fro college. Now as an adult , I am a college student at Norfolk State University. I am a Mass Communications Major studying to become a top well known talk-show host and radio personality and hope to one day own my own fashion corporation. So watch out America, 2010 graduate Tawana’Danyelle Smith is headed your way. So here I come the new futuristic T-TIDOUS, A-AMAZING, W-WISE, A-ANXIOUS-N-NEW FOUND-A-ACCEPTABLE ME.
