 There are tons of things that peak my curiosity but I've really always wondered about space, Like how far does it really go? Are they any living things out there besides us? Are there any other habitable planets? There just so much to go into and so much to learn about that how could you not be interested and want to know more about it. Were just this floating rock in the middle of a nothingness chamber spinning at high speeds orbiting around a 1,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit floating ball. There is just so much to learn and figure out about space so that is why I'm so interested in it. 

 The best Holiday memory that I've had was when we went to New York for Christmas. It was so gouergoes and especially before all this COVID and everything hit so it was a little bit better than it would be now. There was snow everywhere and Holiday sprit was intense. I just think the astphsphere is really enjoyable to be around and be experiencing. I've had many other great Holiday memories expressly at my old childhood house but this one might take the cake. 

I've had a lot of great gift in my life time from many great different people but there is one that takes the cake. The gift was a week down to Key west with my brother and mother. It was a crazy surprise and we had a great time and made many great unforgettable memories. I think that this trip was the best trip I have ever been on and the memories and ecprseces that we encountered will never be forgotten. There also some more great gifts like a phone or a car but I was talking about the most sentimental value. 

Me personally I love music and It helps me through almost anything. IF you having a hard day or a sad day or maybe even a good day, music just makes everything a lot better. Some songs that bring back memories are songs like rock your body and some old Taylor swift songs just because that's what we listened to as a kid hanging out back in the good old days. There are also songs that bring back memories of doing certain things and seeing certain people. I personally love music and I think it should be more widely used. 

 As kids, I feel as if we believe in almost everything especially things that were told to believe like Santa. When we do Christmas as my grandparents house, we do this things for the smaller cousins where one of the uncles leaves and comes in as Santa and surprises the kids and all that. But we would sometimes make noises on the roof and stuff to symbolize reindeer on the roof, and the parents would be like " Kids you guys hear that I think its Santa." and all the kids go crazy.  That something I used to believe in when I was a kid but now I can make that same imagination for the little kids. 

Life is filled with happiness and laughter so there are many times I couldn't stop laughing. Many times when I'm with my friends or with my brother we have times where were non stop laughing about jokes and things that happen. One time Im remembering is when it was me and my two friends and one of there houses. It was like 4 olcok in the morning and we've just been hanging out all night. My friend just did something really not smart and embarrassing that ended up waking his parents and everything but while it was happening it was just hilarious. That just one time I couldn't stop laughing for a good while. 

There are many fears that people over come especially me. Things like being condiment and more social talking to people and mettint others. I also over come the fear or acceptance and having to get other people approval on me. When you realize everyone is caught up in there own world and to busy to be caring about your world you start acting more like yourself and start doing the things that make you happy and the things that you want to do. 

A conversation that changed me in when my mom talked to me about being a man. She sat me down and started talking about how I need to start showing more like a man and start getting more responsibilities and start showing more care for things. She started listing things I'm not doing and things that I need to change and she also listed some things that I was doing well in such as school, soccer, and working. She also wanted the best for me and she always pushes me to my full potential even when I don't want to. I didnt like it at the start but I slowly started to see the change and growth that it was making. I slowly started appartiatiating what she was making me do and started not fighting it but going with it and learning from it. 

 I am thankfull for many things. Im thakful for my family, the people around me, the opporutinites that I have, the probelms with that I'm faced with, the food on my plate everyday, the fresh clean air, clean water, a reliable spruce of heat and air, a shelter over my head, people that love me, the list goes on and on. There is so much to be thankful for in this world you just have to open your eyes and appartate things. Here are just some of the things that I am thakful for. There are so many more that I didn't list and the list could go on forever. 

 A truth that I was affraid to accept was soccer coming to an end. For a while I didn't want to get rid of soccer from my life sense its been with me for over 10 years. I just know its the time to stop and that Im not going to do it in the future for college and for scholarship so there so real reason to keep going now. There are many things I can do instead of soccer such as saving for college and spending more time with friends and family. I think now I know what Im going to do because I have accepted the sad truth but it still doesn't feel good thinking about it. That Is the sad truth that I didn't want to accept for a while.
