I was born
I was born on July 8th, 2000. I was born in La Grange, Illinois. Most of my family were there when I was born. I was born at 6:45 pm and was 5 lbs. 6 ounces. -
Moving time!
When I was 1 years old my family and I moved out across the country to Phoenix, Arizona. Most of my dads family came with us and some were already out there. This didn't really affect me as I was only a 1 year old. -
Baby brother!
On January 10th, 2003 my baby brother was born. After three years of being an only child, I finally got my little brother. Now that we are a little bit older we are as close as a brother and sister could get. -
A soccer player was born.
My dad signed me up for a soccer team when I was seven. We weren't that good but then again we were 7. I made a lot of new friends and it gave me an excuse to get out of the house and do a little exercise. -
Parents divorce
Now this is one of the worst things that can happen to a kid. My parents got divorced when I was 8 years old. My mother and dad decided to end their marriage but still continued to be friends. -
Middle school
I finally started middle school. 6th grade was a breeze just getting familiar to the school and making new friends. 7th grade I started soccer again and did pretty good in all my classes. Finally 8th grade was probably the best year I had at that school because I already had really good friends and was just getting through the year pretty easily. -
mom has a boyfriend
Now after my parents divorce my mom moved from house to house and my dad had numerous girlfriends for a while. My mom finally got a house but it was with her now ex boyfriend. For me it is hard finally excepting the fact that my parents will no longer be together. -
Off to high school
Now whats after middle school? High school, I go to Copper Canyon High school and I am in my second year. I was pretty nerve wrecking my freshman year as I didn't know anyone other than a hand full of students that I barely talked to. My grades stayed above a C which is the way I like it and made the JV soccer team. -
Dads big surprise
After a year of my dad dating this women they decide to take it to the next step and she moves in. She is really nice but she isn't my mom, and I am thankful she understands that. She gets along with everyone but my brother wasn't a really big fan of her at first but he is slowly coming around. -
Soccer
After all those years of soccer it finally paid off in High school when I made varsity. I practice all the time and I don't know what I would do without it. It brings me to a certain point where I don't have a care in the world and helps me relax.
