Yes‚ that’s how my friends describes me :) Now this is where I`m supposed to write “all about me”. This is where I become lost. I mean‚ come on. I wouldn`t know where to start. But I guess the best way to have an idea what makes me tick and what ticks me off is by checking my journal that i fill with endless ramblings about whatever and whoever catches my fleeting fancy or rage. :) But in keeping with tradition‚ here`s a very basic backgrounder: I like to have fun and I like to smile.

rock-bottom took on an entirely different meaning for me in my life. Even though it’s been eight years‚ I can recall every detail about that day just like it happened yesterday. My family was known around the community as what some would call an‚” All-American Family”. I had been married 13 years with three wonderful sons. We always did community activities and participated in church events. For my entire life‚ I was searching for a purpose greater than myself. And the issue of that I didn’t‚ started

team. For me‚ all-star cheerleading was a mixture of success and anything but success. Everyone had countless of injuries‚ blood was shed‚ tears happened every practice. Everything is on the line with this type of sport. Just one mistake and the months of practice can feel worthless. It feels like a waste of time but it only strives you to work harder. In the end‚ the work is worth it. Generally‚ tryouts are at the beginning of May and from then until September you and your team have all of that time

It was a hot summer day in Rayville‚Louisiana. My 12 year old All-Star season was going great‚ even though we had only played a few games. Little did I know that this game would change my whole baseball career. The team would always get there an hour early so we could stretch and hit in the cage. We were noticeably the best team in the tournament. The coach of the team was a smart guy‚ he wanted to win but he didn’t want to embarrass anybody. This game didn’t really mean anything‚ and not to mention

My parents’ amateur camera-work pans up and my best friend Kendall and I dance to one of her latest hits‚ “All the Single Ladies”. As I try to keep up with Kendall’s quick moves‚ she laughs at my 8 year old attempt at swaying my hips. My little brother cheers on Kendall‚ who’s moves seemed more like a 16 year old hip-hop dancer.

Where It All Started Ama Baffoe It all started on a Saturday morning. I used to hate basketball so much‚ but my dad woke me u saying that I had basket ball the next day. I was so furious but it was morning so I thought i was dreaming. Once I found out it was real and not a nightmare I ignored my dad which only lasted for about 30 minutes. Me being the 6 year old I was I couldn’t ignore my parents or hold a grudge for long. My parents drove me to Nike Outlet and got me my basketball shoes and my

A day I will always remember was the last game I played after I was selected to be a part of the all-star team in November of 2014. The All-stars are a team containing the best players from every school in Alachua county. Before we traveled to Atlanta Georgia we had to pack up some of our clothes‚ towels‚ toothbrushes‚ deodorant because we were staying down there for a week. We weren’t used to the weather up there. It was colder than what we were used to and it was almost actually about to snow

My life was forever changed the day I was marked forever. At the age of three‚ I could be called an "all-American child".
