I’ve been playing soccer since, I believe, I was 4. Right now I’m playing for the Beach FC U12 travel team and a lot of my friends here play soccer. I’m also on what is called the Olympic developmental soccer team where it’s kind of giving you a better chance of being on the Olympic team. It’s training you earlier when you’re younger. I practice Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and sometimes Thursday and usually Friday. Then I have games on Sunday. On Fridays, when I don’t have practice, I help the coaches coach the younger kids. And then on Saturdays I coach younger kids when they have players missing. I have a really big passion for soccer and it’s just something that I’ve really enjoyed doing.
I’ve played tennis. I always do swimming in the summer. I’ve played basketball sometimes. I used to play the piano but then I didn’t have time for that. A lot of things I’m pushing into my schedule because I always want to get new opportunities to do things so I can really try out everything, not just one thing that I’m doing.
I’m in the ODC art program. I like cartoonist style. I don’t like doing realistic things. I like making stuff up and making things look funny and making it look weird — giving it my own perspective. There are only two boys that go there and we’re always making comic strips. We’re taking things that we see around us that seem like they couldn’t be funny and then we take them and blow them up or shrink them down, and we do a bunch of stuff to make it look really funny and it makes people laugh. It’s really fun.
