Birth
I was born March 13 1998 in Mesa Arizona. This is significant because if I wasn't born, I wouldn't have a timeline to fill out. -
Drowning
•Another significant time of my life was my first near death scare. It was my 7th birthday and was playing around the pool with my friends. I went to push one in but ended up slipping and falling into the deep end. If it wasn't for my mom jumping in after me, the situation could've been fatal. -
Birth of sister
When I was 7 my mom had her second child being my little sister. After 7 years of being the only child I wasn't very fond of it at first, but that changed soon after she was born. A year later I had a second sibling being my brother. -
Playing football
•Growing up I used to be overweight. I was never really made fun of but I was still unhappy with my appearance. In 5th grade I started playing football which got me back into shape. -
Relationship with nana
•Another key part of my life was getting closer with my grandma. My father wasn't around and my mom was always at work, so I never really had an adult to talk to. Getting closer with my grandma has made me the person I am today because of her positive influence on me. -
Meeting girlfriend
•Junior year I met my girlfriend of 2 years. We met in our history class and it was almost movie like. I am very thankful to have someone in my life that will have my back for life. -
Quit football
•Being a football player overtime made me very cocky and selfish. Sophomore year was my last year of football because I simply wouldn't have enough time if I wanted to get a job. -
first job
•The summer before my 11th grade year I got my first job at Wendys. I was finally able to work now that I was 16 and couldn't be anymore help. Over a year and a half later I am still working there and still enjoying it. -
Junior Year
•Junior year was an overall disappointing year for me. Me and my mom were fighting a lot and I was struggling to balance school and work. My grades slipped and I just gave up on everything. -
Senior Year
•Senior year of high school has been a turning point for me. Not only have my mother and I have not been fighting, but I also got back to getting straight a's. Hopefully I continue to stay on the right track.
