This viewpoint that I have on decision making in life can be shown through my actions during this previous high school rodeo state finals. In order to make the state…
Back To Hawai’i Throughout my life, there have been many people who have helped me along the way. I would not have gotten to where I am now, without the love and support from my family, friends, and the people in the community.
