Ten Most Important Events In My Life

  • Birth

    Birth
    This is when I was born. Yes, 3 days before what would be known as 9/11. I do not remember this, of course.
  • Period: to

    Lifespan

  • Said First Word

    Said First Word
    I said my first word ever, which was "Cookie". I know, kinda odd, but that's what it was. It's significant to me because language is one of the biggest parts of someone's life, and this is where my journey of language began.
  • Played First Videogame

    Played First Videogame
    This one is pretty self-explanitory.
  • Vacation to Virginia Beach

    My family went on a vacation to Virginia Beach. I was barely old enough to remember any of it.
  • First College Football Game Attended

    First College Football Game Attended
    It's a tradition in my family to attend the first game of the Virginia Tech Hokies' football season from ages 8-11. This was the day when I attended my first one, which coincidentally was on my birthday (September 8) I would like to state that Virginia Tech makes it into the Top 10 very often, and are almost constantly in the Top 25. They are fun to watch considering they are one of the best.
  • Was Given My First Guitar

    Was Given My First Guitar
    This was the day when I was given my first guitar. Guitar is a HUGE part of my life. The guitar was red with a white pick-guard, and small enough for someone my age to play.
  • First Online Match of Call of Duty :P

    First Online Match of Call of Duty :P
    I know you might think this is odd, but playing Call of Duty is how I spend a great deal of my free time, and it's been that way for almost 5 years now. My score was 20-7. 20 kills, 7 deaths.
  • Played First Complete Song on the Electric Guitar

    Played First Complete Song on the Electric Guitar
    This was when I played my first full cover song on the Electric Guitar. The song was "Prayer of the Refugee" by Rise Against. This accomplishment led to learning many more songs by that band, including "Savior", "Ready to Fall", "Make It Stop (September's Children)", "The Good Left Undone", and "Swing Life Away".
  • Caught Game-Winning and Tourney-Winning Touchdown Pass in Tourney at Blacksburg Middle School.

    Caught Game-Winning and Tourney-Winning Touchdown Pass in Tourney at Blacksburg Middle School.
    This was an important part of my life because I didn't have much self-confidence until this moment. There was a Tournament in P.E. class in football, and our team had won most of the games. (We were able to do tournaments like these because gym was required for everyone. Therefore, we had enough people.) In this particular game, the score was 10 to 13, we were trailing, and only had about 1:30 left to play. I started at the running back position and ran a fade route to catch the pass for a TD.
  • Moved Across Country from Virginia
