Its All About Me
Its All About MeBy: Marley McLean

The Meaning of My NameMy name is Marley. The meaning of Marley
is pleasant wood or pleasant seaside meadow to some sources. It
also means mysterious It doesnt really fit me, seeing as it
describes a place, but I would like to live by a seaside meadow.
And Im not the most mysterious.
Marley means either pleasant wood, pleasant seaside meadow, or
mysterious. (*) It doesnt fit me as two describe a place, and Im
more introverted than mysterious.2
My FamilyI live with my mother, Ruth, and my father, Lawrence. I
also live with my two younger siblings, Kaya (11) and Chase (8). We
have a cat named Jimmy and a yorkie-poo named Coco
I live with mom Ruth, my dad Lawrence, and my two siblings Kaya

named Jimmy and a yorkie-poo named Coco3

Chance EncounterIf I could meet any 2 people, it would have to
be Alex Hirsch and Bob Ross.Bob Ross was a famous painter, and a
general inspiration for me. He seems very kind and patient and Id
love to ask for art advice from him.Alex Hirsch is the creator of
Gravity Falls, a cartoon that heavily influenced my own art and
writing. Id love to ask him for tips and critique on my own
work.

My Future PlansOnce I finish high school, I want to learn how to
animate or write. I want to become either and author or a
cartoonist, because I want to share my stories with the world. But
being an author is my backup plan, my main goal is animation.Im not
sure where I would work, but hopefully for Cartoon Network.
Animators in the United States earn about $68, 060 annually.A
bachelors degree in computer animation, fine art, and/or graphic
arts is necessary. Also, youd need experience in an entry level of
work before getting the job.
