My Granddad

My Granddad is very sick with cancer and doesnt have much longer to live. I am going to miss him dearly. He has taught me a lot and is a big factor in how i turned out in life. He always helped me with football and supported me through the tough times. He is a great man and there are few like him. If you are ever down he can bring you up with one of his stories. They seem so real but my mom always tells me that he makes them up. Either way they are still funny. I will miss him and everything he has done for me. I hope he holds on as long as he can.

Example

I want to be a good example to my friends and family. If you are a good person than people will respect you and look up to you to lead as an example for them. Most people will admire that and hope to do the same thing for the people in their lives as well. Hopefully one day i could change the life of someone by giving them a good example or being a role model for them. One of my best friends mom always says that i am a good role model for her son and that i keep him out of trouble.

Future

I am very ready to get out of school and go to college. Life in Owensboro is boring and i want new experiences. Ive been looking forward to college for three years now and its hard to wait. I know its going to be hard but i know i will have a lot of fun. I still have to wait over eight months still. Im also still waiting for a job. It seems like they take a month to read over my application, but i dont really need one till summer.

Next 12 Months

Somethings that i plan on doing in the next 12 months:

-Catching a bigger fish then last year

-starting off good in college

-get a truck

-get a good job

-go on a cruise

If my next year had all of these things in them then it would be the best year of my life. I know that wont happen, but if a few of these were included then i would still be a happy camper.

Accepted

Over the break i finally got my acceptance letter from UK. I am very excited to have a chance to go there and further my education. I am looking forward to a change of scenery and meet new people. After 18 years Owensboro gets really old and boring. I cant wait to go to all of the football and basketball games to experience the atmosphere of college. I hope i can make it through UK because i know it is a tough school, but it will help me be prepared for my future job.

Christmas Break

I had a good Christmas break even though it went by to fast. I got everything i wanted and i got to see my family that i havent seen in a while. I spent a lot of time with my friends and my brother who i only see once a month. I went fishing one day with no luck. I got my iphone that i have been hoping to get for a long time. Also, a new fishing rod and camo seat covers for my car. I couldnt have asked for a better break.
