School has been an extensive journey with many ups and downs. Hard work mixed with focus allows doors to be open up that were once closed. Education has allowed me to understand the importance of allowing information to help me perform better in the world today. School has always been a focus of mine because of the education it gives and the fun it has provided me throughout all of my stages.

The abilities to have fundamental skills that will always help you out in the long run.

The school work was a huge difference from elementary school. Teachers expected more of you and that seemed to be the biggest change. The homework load grew significantly between the two stages and this seemed to be where the ability to push through hard times was tested. My hard work ethic in school was forged through this tough load. The morals of growing up as my own human being were also tested. The peer pressure of actually becoming a young teenager was definitely in place. Growing up, my parents always taught me right from wrong, but at the end of the day. It was up to me to make the right choices and keep my head on straight to reach my goals. The key teaching points they taught me truly began in middle school. These lessons that I learned still are engraved in me today. These were the times where my body began to mature by growing taller than the majority of my peers. Sports became an outlet for me. Finding a love for sports wasn’t too hard for me at all. Football gave me the chills and I truly loved the sport. Playing quarterback was my first position on the field, and I loved to control the game. Although I played football growing up, my main sport was definitely basketball because I was naturally more talented at it. I had a complete feel for the game and my sport IQ was extremely high. Enjoying the ins and outs of the sport made it more special to

    At the age of 5, I aspired to either become a professional athlete or an ESPN anchor. Ever since I could remember, I would kick a soccer ball around, dribble a basketball, or throw a baseball around with friends and family. I used to be the league champion and MVP of the team every season, but as time progressed, other competitors would rocket past in height and become the best players because of their size advantage. Although other young athletes became stronger and taller than me, it did not change the passion and commitment I had for sports.

    The sports that I played weren 't really ones that I saw and was in awe of, most of the reason that I played the sports I did was because I saw my older brother play them. Having an older brother who not only was very exeptional, but was always so much bigger than everyone els, at 12 years old he was almost 6 feet, so for me there was a lot to live up to. When I started to play football everyone already kinda knew me because of my brother and because my parents had already been around the organization for a few years, the coaches that I met expected me to be as big as my brother was but then when I showed up I feel like they were surprised. Flag football is what I started playing initially but all I wanted to do was to tackle and to actually play like the big kids play, I looked up to

    Growing up, I was an odd character. I loved nothing more than school and constantly ached to shove newly learned knowledge into my brain; so much so, that on holidays, weekends, or sick days, I would cry that I was missing out on my important education. I would not think about naps and playgrounds and fortunately for five year old me, my school started teaching us science and social studies and math early on. I would rush home with my book bag swinging, looking forward to the time spent on homework and review. Looking back on it, school showed me that when I was dedicated to something, I was unstoppable – until I wasn 't. Months passed and the school handed out pre-report cards to let parents know how their children were doing.

When a student was talking, others listened and waited for their turn. When a student misbehaved in the classroom, other students did not seemed to judge him or her for it by rolling their eyes those that I saw in class before. The same thing apply to when someone needed something such as a rest. If a student got the answer incorrectly, others did not said “no” or roll their eyes, they simply waited for the student to retry again.
