I have a dream. My mom walked out on me when I was 6, and is in a forced rehab up north. My sister is losing her sight, and I'm afraid it's because she's becoming an alcoholic, too. I have been stolen from, and betrayed by people who said they were my friends. Despite all this, I have a dream everyone is good, and am very trusting.
I am a Christian, and I have never been afraid to say that. I've been going to church pretty regularly since I was five years old. My dad has been very involved in everything he can do in the church. I went to Alasso Ranch this Summer, and recame revived in my faith. I gave up a lot of the bad things I was doing. I'm glad I don't have to look over my shoulder anymore. I'm still not sure what I believe about Muslims. I know most are perfectly peaceful, but there are some who attack people of my religon from my country.
I think our country is getting farther and farther from hate and racism every day. There are laws in place that stop employers from discrimination, police from being brutal, and punish hate crimes as hard as the law allows. No one should be treated different because of their race. That being said, I believe there is too much political correctness in this country. People shouldn't be afraid to say "black," "white," or "Mexican." I don't think there should be more rights for gays. Homosexuality is a sin. A believe all the right in the constitution are extremely important. However, one right that stands out in my mind is the second amendment, since our right to bear arms is being taken away in places like Chicago and D.C. If there laws made to take away guns, the criminals will just break those laws, too.
I want to, and have wanted to be a doctor since I was about 8 years old. Right now, I'm taking college, AP, and pre- AP courses that will prepare me for college and allow me to get into a good school. I know it's probably only going to get harder every year, but I know I'll love being a doctor, and that will make everything worth it. If I can, I want to go to the University of Texas in Austin. I haven't really done all my research, but I know it's a great school. The oppritunities I have are dual credit and just being in Coppell High School. Dual credit is classes for both high school and college credits. It'll be a big deal to be able to put 8 college credits on my resume. Coppell is one of the best high schools in the state. There are so many classes you can take here that you wouldn't be able to at other schools.
Dang stoff i didnt know you had it that ruff at the beginning of your awesome life, but i know it has made you a better person and a great friend of course. Its great that your so trusting and it really shows and that one of the reason i think you will go far in life you trust people but since you have gone through alot already i think if they let you down you will be strong enough to battle through anything.
ReplyDeleteI think its great that you were able to share your "deep" personal life on here. There's a lot of things about me that people definetly wouldn't guess and I would never have thought that about you. It's also really great that you want to be a doctor! I think that you'll be a great doctor, and be very successful in life :)
ReplyDeleteWow man I did not know you has such a difficult childhood. That must be very tough to go through. I have no idea what that must be like. If you want to be a doctor think you can, you just have to set your mind to it, which it looks like you have.
ReplyDeleteI thought that it was a great idea in using your own thoughts about your childhood and how you were able to share them with us.
