WHO I AM
Who Am I? I used to describe myself as a dancing hippo. I use this to describe myself because most people don’t believe I dance when they see me. I am that 6”1’ 215lb football player that was the meanest guy on the field. But also the guy that always had a positive attitude, with amazing grades, and danced. Dance and football were two things that I had been very passionate about. My dancing background coming from my mother and my football background coming from my dad. Most people don’t even believe that I dance because of my size. Only the people closest to me know that I dance. Being in college now meeting new people with different backgrounds I have to make decisions on what I really want to do in life. When people find out that I have a dancing background they tell me to minor in dance but when people find out I played football they tell me I should join the team. I not sure I will actually be able to do both of them but it is a decision I will have to make going down the road.
Other things that contribute to who I am are the people I surround myself with. My family and friends are very supportive of everything I do which makes me not question anything I do. I do things with barely no regret because I know at the end of the day I will succeed if I give everything I do my all. In my household my parents always had high standards for everything any of their children were involved in. Dance and football
