My Life

I woke up on June 1, 2003.

Two brothers, one two years older and the other four. Ever since I was little, my brothers and I all had a love for baseball. We have played baseball all of our lives since we were about seven years old, in tee ball. I have had several different coaches, some more strict than others, but they have all taught me a lot. Now I come to a new challenge, high school. I won’t be able to breeze past my years anymore. School here will bring my studies and my game to a new level. Time goes by way to fast.

I don’t really have a favorite song, but this is a song that I like. I just enjoy the pace and mood of the song.

At 9:00 today, I was on my computer playing video games with my friends online.

One of the three people who inspire me is Jackie Robinson. I loved his perseverance and courage to follow through with being the first African-American baseball player.

Another person who inspires me is Frederick Douglass. His speeches were very powerful and I always wanted to hear him talk.

Last but not least, Abraham Lincoln. My favorite trait of Lincoln was his honesty. His hat is also pretty cool too.

A quote that I live by is “treat others how you would like to be treated.” I like this quote because not enough people treat each other with respect.
