Story of Elizabeth Mai Tong Vang
One stormy night, a baby girl was born to Mr. and Mrs. Vang they named
her Elizabeth. When Elizabeth was six months old, she became very sick
and her grandfather who was also a shaman said she was sick because
she didn't like her name Elizabeth. They renamed her Elizabeth Mai Tong
Vang and at age 4 she went under surgery for a hernia.
Before, I start with her history of education
you probably wondering
does she have any interests or favorite things?
Elizabeth loves Japanese anime and manga especially Sailor Moon, Inuyasha
and others. The best thing she can do I sleep and dream about a world
that doesn't exist.
When she was 5 she went to kindergarten for a while but she moved away
and she so she continued her education at Pinedale Elementary. But couple
of years later she moved to Saint Paul, MN and attended school at Phalen
Lake Elementary. Her first year in Minnesota she broke her left leg
and it took three months to heal.
In elementary to Hazel Park Academy middle school she struggled through
but one, day she realized that if she worked hard to finish her homework
and study very hard she would pass all her classes. Well, look at this
she went from not so smart to average smart. Huh, what's average smart?
It's when a person is only smart because they work hard and they are
very lucky. At Johnson Senior School, it wasn't all that different,
she struggled and some how she managed to pass all her classes. But
she still needed to work on her oral, writing and computer skills. So
she applied and got accepted into the program called MACCESS, a program
where they help improve your academic skills like writing, speaking
and computing. They asked her to write an autobiography, so in order
to show her creativeness, she choose to write her story like this, and
for those who haven't caught, on it's me, Liz, writing my story in a
creative fashion.
