My sister Evelyn has been a huge support to me and i thank her for doing that. She has gotten me into so many things like acting classes, ice skating, and modeling. i know she wants me to be successful in life and show her that i can actually graduate from high school and go to the university want to go to that is Berkley. My brother didnt graduate from high school and he once told me that he wished he wouldve not messed up and actually have his career going on. So i learned from his mistakes and did the right thing which is staying in school and not be a dropout student.
I remember my first day at elementary school when my mom was dropping me off i didnt want her to leave me i kept kicking and screaming and begging to take me home with her. I dont know how she did it but she was finally able to leave without me noticing. We learned to play heads up seven up, practiced out alphabets, and took our first nap. After that day i thought school would be easy but when i got to 1st grade i didnt think the same. My opinions changed when we starte doing math adding and subtracting then went to 2nd,3rd and 4th grade which were even harder because i got to the multiplication and divisions and word problems, I always had trouble with math. When i got to 5th grade i joined this program called la's best that helped me with my homework and i joined into the basketball team there and played the flute.
I got to graduate from there and went onto middle school which i thought was even more of a struggle for me. I playrd basketball there and volleyball i loved those two sports at that time and i thought my goal for high school was to be in varsity for both. So everyday after school i would stay and practice really hard for volleyball and during the weekend i would practice with my brother and he would teach me how to play basketball, i thought i was a really good player til i got to high school and saw during practice how good the varsity player played. So i went to both tryouts volleyball and basketball and during freshmen year i quit volleyball the first day of tryouts and started to be more passionate about basketball. I've been playing for six years now and i still dont find myself good enough to be in varsity. During freshmen and sophomore year i messed up in class pretty bad and i didn't take summer school or any adult school to make up all those classes so now i am stuck in geometry re taking this subject since i failed it in my sophomore for not paying attention and not caring about my classes. I realize that was my mistake.
Im looking forward to m future and to being a graduate from university and be able to work with kids as a pediatrician. At this point ill do what it takes to get my goal done and be someone in life. I want to make my family proud of who i am and show them that i actually can get back up even though i did bad during freshmen and sophomore year. For right now i am focusing on getting a scholarship for basketball and be able to play in a team after high school. I know it wont be easy but nothing is in life. If i could tell kids to stay in school, focus and don't mess up i would because that was my mistake and i would like others to learn from it.I look up to all my cousins and my graduate sister Evelyn for pushing me to do what i think i couldnt accomplish. If i could go back i would change my mistakes and make them better.
