This autobiography was discovered shortly after Dominique's death.
June 11th, 2007
My name is Dominique Alexandria Dezii I was not named after anyone, I have my own unique name. I was born thirteen years ago on June 11,1994, at 5:56 a.m, at Thomas Jefferson University, in Philadelphia which would make me a Gemini. At birth I weighed 5 pounds, 6 ounces, and I was 18 inches long. I was born a month early, so I was very premature. My original birthday would have been July 10th. So that is basically when my life began.
First off I am pretty close with my family. I am the middle child, and I look nothing like anyone else in my family. I lived in Philadelphia until I was three, then we moved to Winslow, I didn't exactly consider it a mistake till now. I have a sister Miranda who is three years older then me, and we are pretty close, maybe we fight a lot but other than that shes one of my best friends, and I have a little brother Randy who is three years younger then me, so this kid has an attitude, but he's cool as hell, I can do the stupidest things with him, and for some reason they will be fun. Also, I have a half brother from my dad who is now 17, and lives in Philly with his mom. I don't see him as much I wish I did, but when I do its pretty amazing. My mom's name is Heather, and my dad's name is Randy, I know that they are behind me no matter what, and I give them credit for putting up with me for 13 years. I have two dogs, a chocolate, and yellow lab, named Hooch, and Chance. Also, I have two hamsters that I don't like. There is never a dull moment in my house. My family is absolutely crazy, I love them almost as much as they love to make fun of me, its amazing.
When I was little I had bleach blond hair that was down past my butt, and I was pretty quiet. If you look at pictures from when I was little I didn't look like a very happy kid, but I was. Since I was so quiet I had three imaginary friends named heart, star, and flower. Wow I was such a loser! Anyway, in preschool I had two best friends Emily Deangelis, and Jordan Jones, and I'm not exactly sure what happened with that, but yeah. In kindergarden is when I met Victoria Chapko, and ever since that we have been best friends no matter what. I was such a bad kid when I was little, but I always ratted myself out, and oh man was I a little snitch. Me, and my sister were always close, and always did the dumbest stuff together. I was an annoying kid when I was little, but still very cute.
I can pretty much say life right now is good. Yeah, there is a little more drama then needed, but thats life. I live life day by day and let whatever happens happen. Nothing really interesting ever happens though, but I think the best year of my life was my sixth grade year. I had my best friend in all of my classes, and all of my friends were in my school. Right now a lot of things are harder then it seems, and I am figuring out who my true friends are, and always were.
Some memorable events that have happened in my life, is last year (my sixth grade year), I don't think ill ever forget it because everything was just how I wanted it to be. Also, this years Baltimore trip was extra fun. There is a lot more that I can't exactly think of right now, but I had a lot of amazing times with my friends, and family.
I am always changing something about my appearance. Right now I have blondish hair, with brown underneath. I wish I would have never dyed underneath brown though, because now I want my hair to be lighter. My wavy, layered hair falls to little under my shoulder. I always straighten it, so you'll never really see it natural. I stand at 5'0, so I am not very tall at all. I wear make up 75% of the time, but definitely not always. Some people say that makeup shows that a person is insecure about they're looks, but in my case that is not the reason at all. Also, I change the way I do my makeup every single week.
I am very energetic, and I can never sit still. I have a hard time paying attention because I have a very short attention span. I am no where close to shy, I'll talk to you like I've known you forever, even if we just met. People often tell me that I am very mature for my age. I get bored of things, and people easily, and I have absolutely no patience. I play softball, field hockey, and I have done track, and tennis which was the most boring sport ever, but off that subject. I am attempting dance in August, and I can not wait. I love the beach, and everything about it. Being tan is so amazing also. School is far from my favorite thing. I believe I have changed a lot in the past year, looks, and personality wise. I look at life completely different, and I try hard to cherish what I have because you don't know what you have till its gone, and I am thankful to be here everyday of my life. I try to make the best of things, and never let anything put me down. I don't really admire anyone, because I am my own person. Also, I hate being let down, so I don't let it happen. My pet peeves are people with messed up teeth, walking on sewers, immature kids, being cut off, and when people give up so easily. You'll never see me without a smile on my face, and I can forgive and forget easily. I do not hold grudges, because life is way to short. I never give up, because I believe life is was too short for any of that.
Something that I feel very strongly about is my friends, and my family. I don't think I could live without them. Basically they are what get me through everyday life. I can tell them everything, and know that they will have my back 100%, no matter what. I absolutely love my friends, and family they are amazing. I don't know where I would be without any of them. I don't really have many people that I trust completely, except for a selective few. I consider my friends, and family my whole entire life, and they are something I feel very strongly about.
When I asked Christopher what he thought of me he told me that it was almost impossible to put me in words. Also, that I was the most outgoing person you will ever meet. He said that I would do anything for anyone, and that I am happy no matter what is going on, and that I bring out th best in any situation. So I believe he is sucking up, but its alright. Anyway, Chris says that I don't take friendships softly, and its not a label, but a promise. I have no idea what I would do without my friends, and family, they are my life, and passion. He says I am one of the last people you want to loose as a friend, that I am always there to cheer you up. I am not a girly girl. I have a “different side, I am one of the most amazing pitchers, and short stops, you will ever see”. Lastly he says, I'm a unique person, and one of a kind friend, sister, and daughter, and that I am the most amazing person in the world. Cute right? But that's what Chris thinks of me.
I guess one thing every kid wants to do is grow up. Honestly, I can not wait, ever though I will regret it when I am grown, but as of right now thats one thing I'm looking forward to. When I get older I want to be a cosmetologist, or a photographer. When I graduate from high school I'll try and get into a really good college for three to four years, or as long as it takes to follow my career. As of right now I do not want kids when I get older, but I know it will end up happening. I guess I want to get married, but I definitely won't make that commitment until I am positive about it, and that most likely won't be till I am around twenty-five. I want to live somewhere with a fast pace life, or somewhere hot, not far away because I couldn't leave my family, but I definitely want to get out of New Jersey. When I get older I do not want a big house at all, I want a cute little house that is easy to take care of. But like I said, I don't exactly look into the future, I just live life as it comes, and goes. Hopefully I do get a softball scholarship to a really good college though. I don't even have my life thought out yet, I'm still really young, and I believe I have a whole lot going for me right now. So I'm just going to hold on to that, and not let it go. Also, I'm going to keep pushing, and never give up so I can achieve my goals in life.
