## Biography

### Early Life

John was born on September 9, 2006 at 8:30am. At the hospital, all of his family was there to see his birth, and they were slightly disappointed to see that he was a boy, and not a girl like they were told. As they took him home, he was unlike most babies, as he rarely cried and played with toys, as he mostly just laid in his crib and stare at his ceiling in his room. This slightly creeped his family out, but grew up and continued to grow like a normal child. At his first birthday, he was baptized by Pastor Clarity, who said he was unusual, as he didn’t struggle when going underwater.

At around the talking age, his first words were “mom”, which made his mother very excited. After this, his mother prided herself to teach him how to speak. After a week, he could say almost a dozen words. When he started walking, he never once cried when he fell down, just attempted to get back up, and continue to chase his father around the house.

When John was sent to *Mrs. Ryder’s Place for Little People*, he was surprised to see his mother go away. He stayed right where his mother sat him at first, until he eventually moved to the book shelf, pulled out a book, and started looking at the pictures. This impressed Mrs. Ryder, as she gave him more free will than the other kids, which made John feel good at first, until he was visited by several child psychologists, who studied his behavior, as John usually walk dover and looked at them weird. He was also very polite, as he stuck out his hand to shake, where he was meet with a hand.

At 4, he was brought to preschool, which he asked his mother not to do, as he did not want to be seen by any other “men in ties and weird shirts.” His mother reassure him that he would like it here, better than the daycare he went to before. As he was brought inside, he was introduced to Mr. Parks, the teacher. As he talked, John stuck out his hand nervously to shake, which impressed Mr. Parks a lot. He said to Julia that he liked his style, and that he would be a good student. As the class started, they were told to color animals. When Mr. Parks got to John, he asked if he could have a fox to draw, to which he gave him a picture of a fox. After drawing and going outside for recess, John stayed under the play set and started drawing and building with the wood chips. When he was doing that, he was approached by Mr. Parks, who asked him what he was doing. John explained that he didn’t like the other kids that much, and that he usually just plays by himself at home. Mr. Parks expressed his concerns about John’s social skills, and how it may affect him later in life.

## Relationships

### Family

While his dad, Michael, has a very tough demeanor, that never affected John too much. His dad is very fidgety and nervous around others, although he tries his best to hide it. John often gives his dad advice for life, and tries to make him more comfortable around new people, and that he makes friends so that he is not too clingy to the family.

John shares a lot in common with his mom Julia. She has a slightly negative look on the world, and John often agrees with this, and often goes to his mother with his problems and how he should go about them, although she often tells him to just make the best decision that he thinks is right. He cares for his mother, almost more than the rest of his family.

Jeremey always tries to convince John that he should start thinking about doing some more things that will help him later in life, but John always rubs it off. He admires his oldest brother for being the way he is, but he notes that it's not the life for him, and Jermey agrees to disagree with him.

Jack doesn't seem to acre for anyone, especially his youngest brother. Jack always picks on and teases John, often giving him useless advice to become popular, although John dismisses it all as lies and a waste of time.

Joe always tries to give John positive outlooks on situations, and give him the facts straight, even if John already knows what is facts and fiction. Joe if often in his own space, but gives advice for school to John, and he's repeats him.

### Friends

Hal was the first kid that John ever met. John took pity to him, and took him under his wing, and tried to teach him life lessons and how to survive in school. And although John tried to space himself from Hal, he always kept coming back, so John has a mutual relationship with Hal, even though Hal considers them best friends.

Olivia and John always had and agree to disagree situation and friendship. They often argue about any and everything, but come to some sort agreement, wether positive agreement. Olivia does care for John more than Olivia, but John does have some dignity when other talk down to her.

Keaton never like John in elementary school. Keaton always "bullied" John, and John always retaliated and didn't let Keaton break him. However, Keaton became a "friend" of John in sixth grade and onward, despite the hesitation of Hal and Olivia.
