     Time is flying by passing day by day and life is starting to get real. With goals and future ambitions to pursuit and researching colleges to go to, I become more of and adult with tasks to do rather than a kid in middle school scattered in life. Being an athletic child from the age of six years old , sports will always be there in my life. From swimming to cross country, football to basketball, and soccer decorating me in all different areas, these sports helped guide me into wanting to major in Physical Therapy.

At the University of Oregon knowing you have a outstanding sports program, there is no doubt that you have excellent Physical Trainers and Therapist that keep the sports teams running and in the best shape to get on the field or court. With learning and getting my major, I want to go to the professional level and get signed by a sports team so I can be their Physical Therapist.

With my degree I intend to come back to Hawai'i and sign up for an internship with a physical trainer or sign with a high school to help athletes. After spending a few years here I will learn the knew techniques and technology to recovering players. Then when I can manage to do it on my own I will move to the mainland and sign with a local team and get my name out there.
.

With big decisions coming up in the near future and dreams and goals coming closer and closer I am set and ready to graduate and work my way up into majoring in Physical Therapy. I am glad I was an athletic child because I wouldn't know what to major in. Nothing sticks out to me more than sports does and I just want to give back to recovering athletes with something I grew up doing.

1: The Father
The soldier, but more importantly a father has come home from his 8 month deployment. His children eager and astonished to see him dashed in for a heart warming hug. With a part of his life taken away for more than half a year the loving father feels reunited once again with his family. He cherishes everyday with the loves of his life before he has to leave again.

2: Volleyball 
With match point and another gold medal up in the air for the American duo, the whistle blows for the serve.  With Amy serving for the game she throws it up. With the crowd in awe and watching the ball contact her hand they are eagerly awaiting Team USA's 500th win. "Smack" and ace over the net for a historic win. Not only their 500th win but yet another gold medal to their collection.

3: The Woman
She raised the gun with her shaky hands, and stared directly to my eyes. "I told you not to trust me," she purred. I should have known better than to let a stranger come into my home, but then again, she was an attractive, beguiling snake. Come on, think straight, I thought to myself as I remembered that my life was in her hands.

Frigid: I continued to walk, pulling my books closer to my chest. I knew someone, or something, was following me. The cold air and stillness of the trees compelled me to walk faster. You'll be fine, I thought to myself, but that thought soon seemed to be impossible when I heard and inhumane growl behind me. My skin prickled with fear as I turned around. It was black, resembled the looks of a wolf, and was

Pessimistic: Just a bit longer. Just a bit longer, and it'll all be over. I never wanted to have this birthday party in the first place. I'm thirteen years old; birthday parties are for children. My mom just had to call everyone from my class and invite them over for a "celebration". I don't consider this a celebration if I'm not having any fun. Shaking my legs and fidgeting with my hands, I get antsy for this cursed party to end.
