Hi everyone! My name is Becky Takang. I was born on September 6, 2003 in Silver Spring,MD. I now live in Laurel, MD and am a rising senior in highschool. My parents were born and raised in Cameroon before moving to the US in the 90s. I have two sisters: Vannessa(14) and Gabriella(19). I am the middle child. I'm pretty tall for my age because I take after my father who is 6'0(Im 5'11). People always ask me if I play volleyball or basketball, but I surprise them everytime by saying I play lacrosse.
16, turning 17 in September.
My favortie color is purple because when I was in preschool, I was learning about the different colors and how to spell them and my mom said she remembered that I came home that day and I couldn't stop spelling purple. I kept saying "Purple, P-U-R-P-L-E" and up until now, it is still my favorite color.
Whenever I have free time, I like to read novels, mostly YA fantasy and dystopian themes. I would say that my favorite book right now is "Looking For Alaska" by John Green. I was not expecting the twist at the end. I have also gotten really interested in learning about Greek mythology, thanks to the Percy Jackson series(#Percabeth). I enjoy singing and sing in the choir for my church as well as my school glee club. I also play lacrosse for my school and have been named captain of my team for two years now. I was given the "Most Improved" award my first year of playing and was also referred to as "the fastest feet" on the team. My friends and I actually co-founded the team and were named "Ambassadors" by our coach.
1. Both my parents have a sister named Becky and I was named after one of them. Try to guess which one!
2. I don't know how to use a dishwaher. I've been handwashing dishes my whole life :(
3. I became a cupstacking champion in the doubles category when I was around 8 or 9 years old.
