August 29/12 Ericka Heil

My name is Ericka Jaid Laurett heil. I have long brown hair and I have blue eyes and I am 5’6. My interests are drawing, playing Xbox, babysitting, watching family guy, and sleeping. My expectations for myself are to pass high school not failing any classes. I was close to failing my expectation because I failed math. But I took credit recovery and got the credit! I wish to be a pediatrician because I love kids and helping them and making them happy. Activities that I enjoy are volleyball, basketball and I used to play soccer but my knees and ankles are bad. My mom’s name is Janda-lynn laurett heil, my dad’s name is Adam Jack Heil, my older sister’s name is Devon Brooke Heil, and my younger sister’s name is Emily Mable Clara Heil. I am the middle child of the family. My family grew up around Bobbi and Tom pitkanen. I called them auntie and uncle all the time. We used to go camping every year at a little campsite we made on an island down the Dryden highway. I actually thought that we were related but recently I found out they are just a close family friend. Also, my best friend’s grandmother lives beside me and I talk to her about everything! Sometimes I just go there and talk to her, and sometimes she comes by my house and chats for a bit. My best friend’s grandmother knows more about me than my mother. Well I have a very strong relationship with my dad’s mom. My mom’s mom left and turned against my family because of something personal that happened in the past. My grandma heil has always been there for my mom and me and my sisters and my dad and even our family friends! She has great advice and is such a nice woman. A couple years ago she was on the phone with my uncle and she had a brain aneurism and collapsed while she was on the phone. She got shipped to Winnipeg

    From the time I was born my grandma has been the truest friend I know. She has witnessed every life event that was special to me from the first day of kindergarten to my 8th grade graduation and even more. Once I got to high school I found myself being introduced to more obstacles but I always knew that I could call on my grandmother when I felt like I could not overcome them. I remember specifically when I was the age of fourteen just beginning my sophomore year of high school and I got my first C on my report card. The grade upset me causing me to put myself down but the person who quickly picked me up was my grandmother telling me that…

    There is a lot I want to share with you about me. I am really interested in sports. I am mostly into basketball, and I go to the gym almost everyday practicing and playing for 4 hours. I really hope I can make the team this year. I also like to play football with friends. My favorite subject is math, because there is not much reading and I can learn it really fast. I love to sketch, paint, and sculpt. I really like listening to music, because it motivates me and relieves stress. I always like to learn something cool and interesting. Throughout my life I have learned many useless talents like origami, juggling balls, spinning books, and walking on my hands. I also play the piano and violin but I lost interest now. My favorite food is Indian food, because there is always an explosion of flavor and it’s really spicy. This is actually the starting of my first full year in Oakton, because I moved in the middle of last school year from Woodson high school.…
