Hi! My name is Alani Johnson and I am 13 years old. I have 3 brothers and my favorite color is purple. I love horses and drawing in my free time. I have 10 horses and currently ride one of them every day after school. It's quite fun actually, but you get pretty sore after a while. I also enjoy reading and hanging out with my cockatiel at home but, I do like having a bit of quiet time to myself in my room after a while.
