on My quote I chose is “we must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy.” I chose this because of the what is easy part. Getting the easy way out is more preferable but the harder route may require more work but if it is the right way, take it. I personally like the easy way and will usually take it. But if the hard way is right, then count me in. That is why “we must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy.” Is my quote.
on One person I greatly admire is LeBron James. He is an NBA player with one of the greatest legacies. He still plays to this day at 40 yrs old. He is my hero because of his perseverance, his body care awareness, and being a superstar and a family man too. He always strives to get better and even though he has been the best at times, he always thinks he can get better which is the right mindset to have. Did you know he spends over $1,000,000 on care for his body? The right nutrition, meditation, trainers, and workout equipment. Most superstars or famous people aren’t very nice to their fans and other people, and most people deny it or don’t know it. But for LeBron, that’s different. He has a loving wife, and three children who he cares and worries about deeply. Those are the reasons why LeBron is my hero.
on This year I am going to focus on the word sports. I want to put in extra time in devotion to sports during free moments. During the summer I want to practice shooting in my pool for water polo during the offseason. I will go to swim conditioning more often to get faster while also strengthening my legs. I will do extra land workouts to push myself even more than usual. Push up, sit up, squats, dead hang, that stuff. That is why I am focusing on sports this year.
on This month I read Unstoppable, by Tim Green. It starts out as the main character Harrison on the Constable’s farm. A place where foster kids learn discipline until adopted. But then Harrison’s luck changes and he gets adopted by loving parents and the Dad coaches football, what Harrison watched on his free time. Harrison then starts living life as a normal kid, going to school, playing sports, and gets a crush. But then, fate takes a turn for the worst, Harrison had been diagnosed with a disease that involves maybe never playing football again. Will he power through being crippled, or will he never step on the 100 yard field again.
I really liked how inspiring and true this book is. A true realistic book about student life at home and at school. Along with the detailed description of everything and especially what it’s like to be the new kid in sports and school. That is why I like the book.
My favorite character in the book is Justin because he is welcoming. When Harrison had moved to the new home Justin was very nice and bought him Subway. One quote to prove this is “Good, you want some Subway?”
My favorite quote is “You know what people like are that quit, a gimp.” Said by Major Kirk Bauer. This is my favorite because it is what motivates Harrison to do more and not stop at the minimum. This is what helps him get through the tough time when he is crippled.
