“Life is whatever you make it!”
On the day of November 2, 1992 there was a baby girl born at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia; she was given the name Michelle Zipporia Karim. Her ethnicity is African American, but her maternal grandmother is full-blooded Cherokee Indian, and her paternal Grandfather is Nigerian. She has three brothers, one sister and two half sisters. Today, Michelle is 15 years old and when asked, she said her hobbies include drawing, writing poetry, reading, and shopping.
She said that’s something that people don’t know about her; she actually is a “girly girl”; she won’t go somewhere if it’s dirty and when bored she loves to pamper herself, usually a pedicure. She also likes to sew, things she has made are a bathing suit for herself, and skirts for herself and her aunt, one was denim and one was floral.
Her favorite foods are chocolate and cheese pizza; her favorite sports are football, which she watches, and tennis, dodge ball and kickball which she plays. She doesn’t watch a lot of TV but when she does; her favorite TV shows are Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmerman, Project Runway and America’s Next Top Model. The fifteen year old’s favorite subjects are history and English, but the subjects she hates are math and science. She will be going to school at Booker T. Washington High School in Atlanta, Georgia. She’d like to meet Jesus and her great grandmother.
When asked what she wanted to achieve and what her idea of success was, Michelle answered that she wants to accomplish all her goals which are visiting Cuba, Italy, Paris and Athens, Greece, getting closer to her family, getting closer to God, being a celebrity stylist, an activist and a writer. She also says that if there wasn’t a consequence of going to Hell, she would be an assassin.
