About Me
My name is Samantha Dykes. I'm going to tell you a bit about myself. I'm the type of girl who will fall for a guy she barely knows. Who will listen to a love song and see his face. Who will look for him wherever she goes. I'm the type of girl who doesn't get over things easily. Who will beat herself up when someone doesn't love her back. Who will cry herself to sleep cause she feels she's not good enough. I'm the kind of girl who can talk to a total stranger about anything and everything, but I can't tell my best friend how much I'm hurting. I hate not being invited to parties only cause I feel so alone, and I can't understand how I don't have many friends. I'm the kind of girl who can pick herself up, and I can switch my feelings in a minute. But I'm also the type of girl who's strong. Who can cry her eyes out then forbid them to come back the next morning. Who will blast some old pop song and sing at the top of her lungs cause she feels like it. Who will be no one but herself. I'm the kind of girl who uses quotes, poems, and songs to express how I feel. I’m the kind of girl who looks for that one quote that explains exactly what I am going through. I’m the kind of girl who runs away just to see who will come after me, who puts up walls to see who cares enough to break them down. I’m the kind of girl who dreams so much she loses sight of reality. I’m also the kind of girl who, no matter how many times she’s hurt will not hesitate to take another into her heart. I’m the girl that only when the person is gone do I realize how much I miss them. I’m the kind of girl who will cry because it’s over then smile because it happened. I’m the kind of girl who, if you ask how many times you have crossed my mind, I would think for a moment then say once because you never really left my mind. I’m the kind of girl who will love with everything she has and who will never let go. I’m the kind of girl who will never leave, never cheat, and never hurt you intentionally. I am me and that’s who I will always be. So don’t tell me you love me unless you really mean it…because I am the kind of girl who will do something crazy like believe you.
Bio
I was born in Cleveland, Ohio. I moved to Richmond, Virginia during the summer before my 3rd grade year. I attended Twin Hickory Elementary School. I moved to Northern Virginia where I attended Rivers Bend Middle School for one year. I then moved back to my house in Richmond where I attended Pocahontas Middle School. I attended Deep Run High School and took four years of Art and two years of Graphic Design. I have always loved to make art since I was little. The first pieces of art I can remember creating were pages in coloring books. I remember my mother and sister used to grade my coloring pages. (Mom would always give me A++ and my sister would always give me F's) From there I remember my art just gradually getting better and more advanced. Currently my favorite art I create are my anime/manga drawings. I am now attending community college and working toward becoming an art teacher. I hope to better myself with my art. For now I guess I'll just keep walking forward.
