I think that the most important thing to remember in life is to forgive and forget.

My first memory of school is when I was in kindergarten when the dentist visited us in class and talked about how gatorade was really bad for you. I think that my second grade teacher had the biggest impact on me because she did a lot of hands on projects and and gave a good boost in preparation for third grade and throughout my elementary years. I also think that my fifth grade teacher had a large impact on me. At that time I was struggling in school because I wasn't very organized. She helped me get through that and start to get better grades. I either had a small group of friends or a best friend that I would alwas hang out with. These friends changed almost every year until sixth grade. My favorite memory of them is when I first got to know a kid called Sean during fifth grade. We were just talking during reccess and I asked him what games he played. We both said starcraft ll and from then on we were friends. He's still my favorite school friend right now. I dealed with bullies by making smart remarks or ignoring them. I don't think I was the nicest peron I could be and i regret that, but I don't think that I was really a bully.

The members of my family are my sister, my mom, my dad, and my grandma. My sister is in high school and is usually really nice but has a short temper when under stress. My mom is also like my sister but she handles stress better. My dad is a funny guy, and is nice to talk to but he also has a short temper. My grandma is very kind and is always trying to help me, but she goes over board and tries to do a lot of things for me. She also gives me money for the most trivial things like getting three A's in sixth grade. I try to politely refuse but she insists. There are some words of advice that my dad told me once. They were, "Do everything on time." I know right? My dad is a very blunt guy.

I learned that I'm a " not so talented guy " and if there was one thing I would like to change about myself it would be having better memory of my homework. I learned that you have to be nice to others if you want any friends.

I would like to get better at trumpet, math, science, and improve my mile time. I want to finish Chinese AP and maybe learn some japanese. My goal for after high school is to get into a UC school. I want to get to eagle scout to improve my chances and I will try to sell some drawings on ama
