Bri's Childhood/Teenage Years

I grew up in the Seattle area during the 80's and 90's. As a child I was wild and crazy around my family and closest friends, but at school and in large crowds I was as shy as could be. In Jr. high I gained confidence from competing in Gymnastics. I made so many friends with the girls on the team and that is when I began breaking out of my shell. By High school I had developed a really great group of friends who helped me to make good choices and taught me the definition of teenage drama.
