				Get To Know Me
What's to know? I mean, everything I could say is what everyone else will be saying, and I know there is nothing I could say that makes me interesting, but, oh well, I'll give it a try.
I was born September 5, 1980, 7lbs. and a whole 6oz., my full name is Barbara Sylvia Trent. The Barbara and the name Sylvia come from a great grandmother, and the last name from my father. I was born in Seattle, Washington, at the Swedish Hospital. I didn't stay long in Seattle, so I don't remember anything about it. When I was two we moved here to Virginia. We lived in this house over by an elementary school, but that was short. Then we moved into this house that we are at now, and have been here ever since. I met my best friend living here. I really got to know her when I was around seven or eight. I can't really recall that far back I have a very bad memory of my childhood.
Through the years I attended Epes Elementary, Dozier Middle School, and Denbigh High School in Newport News. When I was in high school, I was on the softball team that was a lot of fun; even though I didn't get along with a lot of the girls on my team they were the type of girls to do their makeup right before a game or practice. Anyway, I only played from my tenth grade year till my senior year. I also used to be on a bowling league; I have a lot of patches and some trophies.  When I graduated from Denbigh High School, I attended Radford University. I went there for one year and my grades seemed to fall do to a very overloaded schedule that I was unable to handle, and I had a very bad GPA, a 1.5 to be exact, by the second semester I was able to bring it up to a 1.8. But, that was not enough to be put on academic suspension. So, know I'm attending Thomas Nelson Community College, and no I don’t tend to go back to Radford, only to visit the good friends I made while there.
Also if you're wondering why I didn't talk about my looks, that's because they are not important. They are just icing on the cake, no need to know that, the filling is the best part.
