Bella is a freshman at SBHS, she grew up in Hollywood but has moved every 3 years. It turned into a normal thing for her since it happened throughout her whole life. She believes the hardest thing about being a student is trying to finish all of her homework so she can have time during the day to hang out with friends.

“I think moving is annoying and is a lot of work because of packing and unpacking. It also effects me and doesn’t help with making friends,” she said.

Pereira has visited Maryland, California, and Georgia. Out of the three her favorite was California, she enjoys it because of the nice weather. It is not humid like in Florida. She also likes the mountains there as well. Her main reason  is because her moms side of the family lives up there and she gets to hang out with them. She doesn’t visit often but they come down to Florida instead.

“I love California because its really fun and I enjoy the cold weather. I also get to go to Disney when I go which is really cool,” she said.

Pereira’s favorite weekend activity is to hang out with her friend group which consists of 12 people. They usually have sleepovers and they basically just mess around and hang out. Overall, Pereira has a very eventful life, and enjoys it to the fullest.

“How funny they are and how they always have a good time even if they aren’t doing anything because they’re just together,” said Pereira.

A person she looks up to is her mom. She looks up to her mom because she inspires her to keep going. Her mom is also a strong woman and will make many sacrifices for her and her siblings.

“She went through a very rough patch at a young age until her late teenage years but still stayed strong and now lives a great life and does a lot for me and my siblings,” said Pereira.
