Decent Essays
I would like for you to get to know me a little bit better. I'm going to tell you just a few of my passions. You can tell a lot about someone by their interests. Growing up I’ve always been raised around sports. Basketball it was the Denver Nuggets until Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony traded teams. Once they left it was not really much point to continue watching. Then there were my cousins in little league football. I used to be on the field helping them practice, i truly enjoyed every minute of it. Was at every single game, and helped them with the warm-ups. As far as professional football goes, I enjoy watching the New England Patriots. Which they are 10-0 right now. I've been a big fan of them for about 6 years, along with the New

    Accomplishments come plenty to those who underappreciate them, and scarcely to those who fight for them their entire lives to even have one. Accomplishments come to those who work hard every day while so many others get them default; these people are the ones who without hesitation give up everything else when a chance comes to be better, not only for others, but for themselves. Accomplishments are marks and decrees of excellence and achievement, and they signal the growth of a person’s character. An accomplishment is when an opportunity comes and provides a chance for a person to move forward on their path to success. When my opportunity was presented and I was given the responsibility and requirements needed to be successful, it was second…

    As I arrive home from football practice, it was just a normal night, all the neighbors are headed inside. That’s when I see a figure in the distance and it has a human figure to it with beady red eyes, and it has a strange aura around it. As I start to think to myself what to do, I start to walk to it, not realizing what the suspicious figure is, and the figure does the same. We trayed eye contact until that very moment I see headlights, and then the figure was gone in flash. As I stand in the road, a man in a small truck yells at me“hey, get out of the road” I look up in shock and yell back…

    A Football Life The statement “participated in Varsity football”, doesn't nearly come close enough to explain the amount the impact that football has had on my life. Next to my parents and my church, football has shaped me to the person I am today more than anything else.
