Everyone is black and gold on the inside, we are all Saints. What we see on the outside is only a perception on how we feel inside. Beauty lies within, if you do not define yourself as beautiful then who will. Every person is different in their own way, and you should be proud of that because no one else can ever be you, so be the best you, you can be!

my name is Matthew Blanchard, I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. I currently attend the University of Louisiana Lafayette, to become a teacher so I can inspire young minds. I'm 19 years old, and I live a life of gratitude, therefore I strive to make others around me happy because I know the burden the society has put on them. I tend to put other people happiness before mine, because I have already lived a fulfilled life and have nothing to complain about. I am athletic, charming, and very sociable. I believe you are the creator of your own destiny, as well as your own happiness.

I love inspiring others to do better, as well as help them out of struggle. I can run around playing sports all day. I hope one day to give a speech on TedTalk. I want to leave a name for myself for when I leave, and make the world a better place then when I was on it!
