JV Basketball team as a 6th grader.

Jan 3, 2010

Basketball has always been my favorite sport and I always wanted to make the team. So I was kinda of mad when they didn't have a 6th grade team but they let the 6th graders try out for the 7th grade team. I was one of three other sixth graders to get pulled up. That was the first team I have ever played for.

First Job

Jun 16, 2011

I was tired of sitting home on summer days when all of my friends were on vacation. So one day my dad made me come with him to his apartment building that he owned, After we were done he didn't have time to take me home so he took me to his liquor store which I ended up working there.

Beating My older brother in basketball

Aug 21, 2011

Basketball was always my favorite sport. I can thank my brother for that because I remeber my mom taking me to see him play back in middle school. He was sort of my role model and he taught me how to play basketball for like a week, but ever since then, I have been teachng myself. Everytime we played one on one, he would beat me. Back until 8th grade when I beat up for the first time, it was easier than I thought cause he sucked.

8th Grade Graduation and Gold Honor Roll

Jun 11, 2012

My mom always compared me to my brother and sister, it was always about our grades. I always had decent grades but my sister always had all A's and the occasional B. It was hard to impress my mom with 2 A's and the rest B's. Any other parent would have been proud but not mine so I tried that year harder then ever and got all A's and a B.

Freshman Year Basketball Team

Nov 7, 2013

I was hesitant to try our because I didn't want to play for the team. I didn't really like playing for coaches but I was glad I tryed out that year because when I made the team my entire family was extremely proud of me.

Overcame my fear of Glossophobia

Feb 3, 2014

I never knew I had this fear until 8th grade where I had to read out my graduation speech infront of my class in the middle of the room. Even though I knew all of them I still had trouble reading it to them because I was nervous. I took Public Speaking sophmore year to get it out of the way but I didn't know how hard the class was and how nervous it was to speak infront of them. But Thanks to my teacher she helped me come up from a 74 to an 87 in the class.

CPD or CFD?

Feb 4, 2014

I won't have a career in the military, it is just going to be a temporary thing to see what I want to do with my life. I want to be two things and they are to become a Chicago Firefighter or a Chicago Police officer. They are very important jobs and they have real meaning.

Honor Classes

Aug 14, 2015

Ever since Freshmen year I was supposed to be in 2 honors classes, for english and for history. When I said no, I said because it was too hard and then sophmore year, again I said no to 3 classes, I guess I had to stop putting it off and face up. Junior year, the hardest year I am taking two honors classes and I still don't know why.

Dream Car

Sep 13, 2016

I would like to earn my own money and pay for most of my car just like my brother did. To be honest I am picky with alot of thing but not with cars. If I could have, I would have drove my dad's old 1997 Dodge minivan. But now I am thinking more of a black pickup truck.

College

Aug 9, 2017

I never thought I would want to go to college because I have always hated shcool. But if I was to go it would have to be out of the state or at least I would live away from home. I just want a new experience.

Jul 7, 2020

I want to make a difference in people's lives and being in the United States army is a great way to do that. I have always wanted to be a part of the military. I am still not sure which branch I want to be a part of. But I am planning on going after college or going to an army college.
