“I like soccer, but football is my favorite sport. I wanna be a football player when I grow up. I’m hopefully moving back to Texas so that I can start playing on a football team. One quarterback can change the whole team, Russell Wilson from the Seahawks, he is a quarterback and the Seahawks weren’t good until he started playing for them. They even won the Superbowl. It wasn’t just him that made them win the Superbowl, but a quarterback is one of the most important players. Everyone says I am too small to be a quarterback, but Russell was small. That’s why no one really liked him. There are a bunch of obstacles in being a small quarterback, and everyone discourages people by saying, ‘You are going to have bulk up.’ I know the linemen are going to be big, that just means I am going to have to move around and be faster. I’m also going to have to prove myself because people won’t accept me as a quarterback. I am dedicated and play football everyday after school with my brothers and I am going to move. I wanna go to college and play football then play for the Texans.”

My favorite sport is soccer, I play it everyday with my friends after schcool or in the weekends. I practice it a lot so I can get better at it each day that goes by and so I can be always in the condition to play. I know Im cable to go through anything that gets in my way, nothing is impossible, I will go through every single obstacle that gets in my path in order to be able to succeed in life. Sometimes there’s nothing you can do about some stuff, but that doesn’t mean you are not going to try, I will try and try over and over again to succeed in life, because if you do not take risks, you will never know what you are capable of. I also want to join the Army, all this is not easy as it sounds, I think about my future as a professional soccer player, but I also see myself in the Army defending this beautiful country. 2 things that I love with my heart is to be in the Army, and to become a soccer player. I would love to play for Barceona FC, but I know this will require a lot of practice, keeping my grades up and staying out of trouble. And I will try my best to accomplish this goal.
My 2nd goal also requires me being good at school, keeping my grades up and staying out of trouble, I don’t know which branch I want to join, I have letters from the National Guard, Unites States Marine Corps, Air Force, and from the Navy inviting me to join them, but it is a really hard decision for me to just decide it in 1 minute, this decision requires me to think about it carefully, because my future will depend on it. Hopefully when the time comes, I will have an answer for this question.
