Letter of the Week: Donald Stephens, Beaumont Middle School

11/21/2017

0 Comments

 
​My name is Donald Stephens, I am 12 years old, I was born January 12, 2005 and I was born in Portland Oregon at OHSU “the hospital on the hill.” The name Donald is a Scottish baby name, which means “Great chief, World might.” I was named after my father Donald Stephens Sr.

My heritage is African American and so are my parents. I have 4 siblings, three brothers Tiahntae, Demetrius, and Jeffery, and one sister Deonica. As far as hospitals I don’t know exactly where they were born, but Portland is where we’re from.

Not only my siblings I can’t forget about my mother April and my father Donald Sr. I can’t choose between Thanksgiving and Christmas on being my favorite family traditions, but I like both of these holidays because I get to have a relaxing, loving and bonding time with my family. As you can see from what colors I always wear to school, red is my favorite. My favorite sport is basketball, which I really excel in, and my favorite subject in school is probably Math and P.E. In my further years of life I can see myself playing professional basketball in the NBA.

I know this may be unusual, but I really value and cherish my shoes. Like if somebody steps on my shoes or if my shoes may have the smallest little smudge, I’m quick to clean it off. One thing that really bothers me is probably horror, best believe if you catching me watching some movie or show it will not be nothing involving horror.

Sincerely,
Donald Stephens.
