I Am A Professional Football Player

Growing up all I ever wanted to be was a professional football player, my dream was to make it into the NFL and repay my parents for all they've done for me. My whole life I was told to find something I love to do and stick with it, that's when I knew that football could be my free ticket out of Hawai’i. As my knowledge grew, I started to realize the struggles college would put my parents through financially, and that's when I decided football was the way to take care of that all. But as a kid, you don't see the full picture and you honestly never will, but all I knew was that I hated school and loved to play sports. Growing up I've always had people tell me to take care of my school work and be a student first. As a kid, you understand what

All throughout school, students are ask what we want to be when we grow up. Many of us know or have a pretty good idea, but others have no clue what they want to pursue as a career in life, whether it be furthering their education at a university or attending a technical school. There are other students that plan to start work right out of high school. Either way we all have a plan, and the purpose of this paper is to inform you of mine. I personally struggle in making big decisions like deciding what to do with my life, but then I realized I have been asking myself the wrong questions. Instead of asking what I want to be when I grow up, I asked myself what do I want out of life? what are some of my goals that I wish to achieve? This led

When I was young I never put serious thought into what I wanted to be when I grew up. I made up silly dreams like being a wrestler or a monster truck driver, but I could not see myself pursuing any of these professions. It was not until my junior year in high school that I started to think more in-depth about where I saw myself in ten years. I began to take criminal justice classes at a technical school and explored the different jobs within. Two years later I am in college and I am no longer pursuing a job in the criminal justice field.

The career I chose is to be a professional football player for the NFL and the education you need for that is not so serious, there are many high profile NFL football players with a very low education. For example Desean Jackson keeps getting in gang related trouble and also randy Gregory has a habit for talking a lot of smack before the cowboys loose. There is a certain education you need which is physical education. Hitting the gym and being in shape are the assets you will need to be in the NFL for you will have to outrun, outhit, and outplay every single one of your opponents if you want to play for that league. The average salary for an NFL player is around 1.9 million which in my thoughts is really low compared to the money the league gets which is around 22-30 billion dollars. But there are many players that get paid great like

Throughout my teenage years I loved to play baseball. I was in different clubs, organizations, and teams. My whole life was dedicated to playing ball. Then things started to change going into my freshmen year, I started to get into computers. I decided to enroll into a computer class at Franklin high school. I started to learn a lot stuff about computers and also I was pretty good at it. Also at the time I was still managing to be in baseball. Then going into my senior year I had to choses in between being in baseball or going into computers. I knew going into computers will help me get a head start in my carrier. So I chose to go into computers and quit baseball. I thought I will never have to quit baseball my whole life. It was a very big significant event in my life but good things have come with it. I got three CompTIA certifications, paid for half of my

an higher education, Education is very important to me and in order to move ahead in life, not just get by but to really succeed and prosper, I must get a college degree as it can openö up many close doors that a high school diploma couldn’t open for me.

Throughout my life, I’ve wanted to be many things. An astronaut, a princess, a doctor, a lawyer, and at one point in my life the president. Now that I am older and much more mature. I still haven’t decided what I wanted to be. When I first started my high school career, I was terrified. I didn’t know what I wanted to be. So I decided to try new things. I’ve been with choir ever since I was in the sixth grade, so I thought I would give it shot, and try something new. I started to take drama and art. I soon found out, that I wasn’t great at either of those things. I had stage fright and I sucked at drawing. But, I didn’t give up. I stayed with choir, drama, art, and basketball. Now that I am a senior and ready to graduate, I have found out I

Brian Pham Lyon English ERWC, Period 3 23 September 2014 Personal Statement On March 21st, 2014, I came into my high school football coach’s room, preparing to talk to him about joining his team. Being in his presence at first was extremely nerve wrecking.

Hi, I’m Lissette Jaslyn Vierra I attend Ceres High School I will be a senior this upcoming fall. I kind of have an idea on what I want to become as an adult, I would like to be an engineer. Not completely sure what kind, but I have 3 top ones: A Robotic Engineer, an Electrical Engineer, or maybe some kind of Criminal Justice Engineer. As for the Criminal Justice Engineer, I would like to join the Army or Airforce to build something to protect the men and women serving our country. The other two Engineer course are really fun and I enjoy making robots and wiring them to move.

Ever since elementary, we have been asked the question “What do you want to be when you grow up?” The question stayed the same throughout junior high and high school but the answers are constantly changing, at least they are in my case. I was that typical child, the one who dreamed of exploring space and all of its mysteries. However after trying to say quantum physics like a NASA scientist I soon decided that my exploration of that particular career came to a close. Around 7th grade, I was enrolled in a United States history class and enjoyed the studies of American politics and heritage. I soon set out to be the first female president, disregarding my financial standings as a broke-unemployed junior high teenager. This aspiration stuck

My dream of becoming a computer engineer shattered. I felt lost during those times. I went on a binder by not doing my best or living up to the potentials that I had in me. I reach some of the goals that I set for myself, but there was always that void within me. When High School

All your life you’ve dreamed big, but would your dream turn into reality? Imagine someone other than yourself putting it in your head what you're set out to be in life. Highschool football was everything to me. I've taken many sacrifices such as quitting my job; picking up unnecessary classes, and focusing on football it's self instead of other important responsibilities. These three things set me back, regrettably I became an athlete instead of a student athlete. With no desire to do anything else in life I always wondered when this is over what's next?

Every since I was a young girl I have been always asked by, what do you wanna be when you grow up? I know some people that change their minds every week of what their future hold for them and how they are gonna live through it. The future is changing every second of our lives, everything single thing that we do affects what our future hold for us. All my life I have been determined on one thing in my life. I have always wanted to become a doctor no matter what. I know that there is nothing that is gonna change my mind about that. Technology has helped many people with what they do at their job, however it has also harmed their jobs also.

Everyone must make a choice, once they reach a certain age, that will determine everything in their life. My dream job is to become an electrical engineer one day because I find interest in circuits and building electronic devices. When I was a young boy my dream not to be an electric engineer but something more along the lines of being a cook; however, that dream was short lived because my interest of being able to cook changed over as I got older and became interested in electronics. The way electronics work is simply amusing to me because I could not understand how the devices were operating, and honestly I still may not understand how these devices actually work. My backup plan for my future career would have to be becoming a

My whole life I have always wanted to become a successful engineer, and graduate from the University of Cincinnati. Some of my goals in life are to go to the University of Cincinnati. Another one of my goals is to become some type of engineer. But as of right now I would like to be a aerospace engineer. To be honest I really don’t know what influenced me to want to become and engineer. But something about engineering always appealed to me for some reason. But lately my engineering teacher has had a positive impact on me and is really making me like engineering and the overall field. So I guess that Mr. Smith has influenced me into being an engineer. My plan b is to be an engineer too. But this type of engineering would just be easier to
