Student Biography: Hello, my name is Javier Santos Ramos. I grew up in Santa Maria for 18 years of  my life, when I was 7 I went to Mexico for my first time experience. One memory I'll  always remember, when I went with my mother, some aunties, and my uncle to get food  at the flea market. We arrived in a truck early in the morning. On the road I had my  favorite blanket. I slept in the trunk but couldn't sleep and started throwing up because  the smell of gasoline made me dizzy. Eventually I finally fell asleep once I woke up the  next instant and nobody was around. But sooner or later they came because with big  bags of groceries. The only thing that bummed me out was I didn't get to experience  what it's like to walk in the city if mexico. When we arrived home it was night. We had  two guard dogs that barely knew me and I was running back while barking at me. and  One time they caught up to me and tripped me. The dogs started to nibble/bite me.  That’s how my trip went, I got 5 uncles, 4 aunties, one deceased uncle, often cousins I  see are 10, have divorced parents, 2 brothers. I am an uncle of two little special ladies,  and I got a woman. She loves doing her makeup. Often when I'm done with many things  I go off to my local gym and work out for a few hours. An activity I enjoy is playing  soccer, physical labor, finishing academics, and making others smile with my personality  makes me happy.  The refran is what my painting was about,so I was thinking out of the mist an  idea pops up instantly.i gave it a little thought It goes a little like this “Flower petals that  lead to a twirling tree, a branch tree hovers over a legacy” From the beginning of where  the seeds start to grow, ruts under the ground make an appearance into the world, like a  leaf sprouting showing life with meaning of purpose, to commence a growth of pedals,  giving life to what’s able to be seen. A left legacy of one's path going through a road you  can follow in someone's footsteps to create your own path. A certain way you’ll be or do  that you enjoy doing. Improve your portfolio with changes. Something that goes off with  is, if you can’t go through a change, how will you even find your silly side? That side  only when you're lonely you can find.
