Oklahoma’s Kids Belong - Heidi

My name is Heidi and I'm 15 about to turn 16. I enjoy singing, I'm in the advanced choir group at school. I love reading, always loved reading. I like drawings, doesn't matter really much. I like anime drawing because you can have fun with it. I write my own songs, I do it based off like what I've been through and everything instead of just making random ones. I like hanging out with my friends, I have lots of friends. I don't know, because I guess I'm just really outgoing and I'm not afraid to talk to people.
	
I love school because I like learning but then I like being with my friends too, they make school way funner. I'm very loud. I can get in everybody's business like if somebody says something I'll be like, "Huh, what?" And they'll be like, "Hi, we're not talking to you." And I be like, "I know. I just wanted to know what was happening." I'm playful, sometimes I can be sarcastic a lot. I'm really into social media, so like sometimes I won't listen to my friends when I'm on social media because I'll be so caught up in what I'm doing. 
	
When I get out of high school three things I want to do, not sure how I'm gonna do them yet. I want to be a singer, to do like pro singing, doesn't matter what it is. I like doing gospel music too because of how the voice goes and everything. I want to be a chef because I love cooking and I like baking, baking's fun. And I also want to be a therapist for teenager foster kids because I always got frustrated when therapists said they understood, but they never been through what we've been through. It always made me mad, so I wanted to be the one to actually tell a kid I understand because I have.
	
I just want people that make me feel good and have positive energy around me and build me up and actually encourage me to do what I want to do.
