I was born on October 16, 1992 in Detroit, Michigan.
-
-
I started to meet a whole bunch of kids my age through family friends.
-
My older sister and cousin were throwing a frizbee around trying to get me to walk and it worked!
-
When I was little I had a toy lawn mower, and I would walk along side my father with the tow pretending to mow the grass. It made me feel like I was all grown up.
-
-
I started preschool when I was three. It really helped me prepare for kindergarten and helped me learn a whole bunch of new things.
-
I started to play in a rec. soccer league with a whole bunch of friends from school and the neighboorhood. It was my first team sport ever and it really helped me get physicaly acclimated to sports.
-
I started kindergarten when I was four and made my first best friends. There was a whole group of us that lived in the same neighborhood and became extremely close with one another.
-
-
I remember coming out of class and seeing utter chaos. Not knowing the cause I was confused and scared. When I got home, I watched the news with my parents and heard what had happened. I remember feeling every single emotion you can think of all at the same time. It was the first time anything had affected me in such a big way.
-
When I turned ten, I really started to grow physically. I was always one of the taller kids in my grade.
-
I was 10 when I started middle school. 6th grade was very different to any other year of school that I had had before. I developed better friendships with girls, and it was the start of a very awkward time for me and all my frineds.
-
-
My first year of high school football introduced me to weight lifting which really improved my strength.
-
When I started high school, my social life started to become more important than ever.
-
Through my high school years, I noticed that I grew a lot as a student. I became more organized and understanding of what was needed to do well in school.
-
-
My first college classes were taken at Oakland Community College.
-
Once I was accepted into CMU, I moved out of my parents house for the first time and started living with friends. It was an easy transition for me and has been a great experience.
-
I have been wanting to get back into football shape for a while now since it's been so long. I have been exercising regularly and hope to be where I want to be by next summer.
-
I hope to find a job that I love and am good at and would want to stay in until I retire.
-
-
By the time I turn thirty, I would like to be married and beginning to think about starting a family.
-
Throughout my adulthood, I want to keep my body healthy and fit so I can avoid health problems in my later years.
-
I hope that by the time I reach the age of 65, and enter late adulthood, I have at least a few grand kids.
-
My goal is to be retired by the time I reach 65. Hopefully I will put myself in the position to do this earlier, but I think 65 is the absolute max age I would work until.
-
-
Hopefully, up til the day I die, I have lived an active and adventurous life including my late adult years.
-
I chose this date because I would love to live through the year 2100. I hope to be either in northern Michigan or somewhere tropical when I die. My grandpa went in his sleep and that seems like the way I would want to go as well.
