Quinetta Bowden's Autobiography (submitted 5/15/06)

Born in Philadelphia, PA, Quinetta Bowden(1991- ) was not the kind of girl who would rather play with a Barbie than a basketball. As she grew up, she realized that there were good and bad people in the world. So she thought she would be one of the good guys. Now, when someone asks her to do something, if it is doable, she will do it whether she wants to or not.
She has lost many family members to sugar diabetes. One of her aspirations is to find a cure for sugar diabetes. Another one of her aspirations is to become a lawyer because she loves to argue. So she figures the only way to achieve her goal is to go to a good college. In order to do that, she has to go to a good high school. So she applied and was accepted to the Philadelphia High School for Girls.
“I came to Girls High as a girl who wants to find a cure for diabetes and I will come out as more than that. I will come out ‘A Girl’s High girl.’ I will have made a ton of friends for life, and on the way I’ll find self-reliance.”
