I thank my dad for bringing out the skill and mindset of an athlete. I not only use my competitive nature on the field but I also utilize it in the classroom. When I was younger‚ I would despise the person who got a higher grade than me. I wouldn’t actually hate them‚ I would hate that they beat me. But when I would get the highest grade in the class I would feel like I had won the championship football game. Now onto where I am from. I am from Laguna Hills California but I say I am from Mission
