Chantelle T C Huggins Biography

My name is Chantelle T C Huggins; I am a 19 year old, resilient, meticulous, and articulate young lady. I come from a family consisting of two brothers, one older and one younger, my mother, father and grandmother (now deceased) . At an early age our father left to accept better employment opportunity in Canada. During this time I was home schooled by my mother, a pre-school teacher at the time, and my grandmother, a retired school principal. At the age of four it was said that I had progressed beyond my years and was sent off to primary school on January 1997. Though being more advanced than the class placed in, I was not registered until September of the same year. My older brother, two years ahead of me, was more than excited to have his little sister to ‘look out for’ in school. In the same year my younger brother was born making me the middle child. Being the middle child and only girl has had its advantages and disadvantages such as; not having to share my clothes, or ‘girly’ toys, but on the other hand not being allowed to stay out as late as the boys. I live in a small community known as Buccoo which is famous for goat and crab racing, beach facilities and reef tours. I grew up in a staunch Roman Catholic household which I believe has been the foundation of my core values. I believe that we all can achieve whatever we commit ourselves to regardless of social, emotional or physical attributes. God has placed us all here for a purpose and when we have completed this purpose we return to our rightful place with him. I joined various groups in church such as; the youth group, the choir and altar servers, which has assisted me holistically. I started playing various sports such as football, cricket, netball, basketball and tennis, and discovered I had a passion for tennis. I joined my school’s tennis club and enjoyed playing whenever I got the opportunity. My Secondary school years were filled with highs and lows, good and bad. In the first two and a half years I was a very shy and petite, and many took advantage of this by bullying me. I somehow managed to surpass this and continued to focus on my studies. At the beginning of my third year I found a voice I never knew I had and became resilient to the dismay of my terrors. When I entered the beginning of my senior years my attitude was completely different, and I found a new hobby; poetry writing. And it has stuck with me ever since.)

The Best Poem Of Chantelle T C Huggins

My Sunset

As the sunsets
I realize how quickly time passes by
I think of all the things I could have done
and all the things I wish I had done

After each sunset
I remind myself that there's always tomorrow
there's always time to catch on things I missed out on
but somehow, as fast as a new day comes
I find myself in the same place;
watching the sunset and thinking of all the things
all the things I should have done
all the things I could have done
continuously going to and from

Tomorrow?
tomorrow never comes
so all my plans for tomorrow may never be fulfilled
never be drilled.......killed

Unless I start today
today before the sun rises and today before the sunsets
before the darkness consumes all humanity
before the shadows are my only pity

Days without sunset, are days I hardly met
I've always been granted the favour
by the savour
to admire this wonderful creation
such beautiful attraction

A sunset
a sunset of light, of hope, of peace
