As I grew up as a child I didn't really care what I could be i life. I just wanted to live it to the fullest and just be a normal kid just like every other child would want to do when their young. So as the years went by and I finally got to school as a pre schooler, I didn't really know much, but some things I started to be good at was bring good things for show and tell so I could impress all my little class mates at the time and also just doing the most important thing that was needed was turning in your homework to the teacher unless the teachers would get mad at you and you might cry. Doing all these thing while I was growing up and going to school wasn't a first priority to me because I was usually playing sports or being active in sports like football, baseball and also basketball which was really fun because it kept my moving and excited to play against other opponents. Also by playing sports it got me a lot of friendships as i got older and into a bigger faze, playing high school ball. Going through all these step that helped me and got me ready for the harder challenges coming my way. As the years went by and I moved on from pre school, elementry school to middle school to high school where I'm at now. This is where everything started to happen and I realized that I needed to step it up and get focused on school. Even though I struggled in middle school but I still past i needed to get way better grades now that I'm in high school. Also if I wanted to play any sports grades would be the first priority if i wanted to play. Just like a, "Student Athlete". I also needed to get good grades and a average GPA if i wanted to get a scholarship to go to college and play ball. It'll be a struggle but I can handle it and I'll try my best. I hope one day i could get as good as all those players that made it through high school, college and now are having a good life.
So when I plan for all this and when I get to college I want to be more prepared and a step a head of others instead of being behind. When I get to college I would what to take all my classes and get my bachelors degree and graduate from college. By doing all of that i would need to set all my goals for life and take new hard challenges that come my way.

Come of Age Essay
At about 1:44 every one was ready to leave school for their summer break. During period six all of my class mates was finishing up their last work of their freshman and about ready to throw it away once the bell rings. Ding! Ding! Ding the loud school bell goes off and everyone starts yelling," Summer time baby!" But not for me cause I still had one more long, hot, and tiring football practice to go to till Im done till the next season. It was a super chill practice that no one thought that would come true, but it really happen! At the end of practice all the football guys had all smiles on their faces while they were eating their delicious ice cream that coach gave us because we had a hell of a season. Dam we must of did wonderful.
As everyone was walking up to the lockers i was running up so I could go home already, as I was the first one in and out I resized that my dad was here super early and I was wondering why? As I approached the car and I got in with a clueless thought on my face, I asked my dad why you here so early and he just drove off with a sad face. As we got on the freeway heading in a different direction he told me what happen. I was in complete shock because my grandma was rushed to the hospital by an ambulance to Kapiolani Hospital.
Right when he said that I thought she passed away, but I thought to myself that this couldn't happen and she was alright. But for the passed years my Grandma had problems with cancer, now its really affecting her. As we arrived we ran to her room were all of my family members was standing and praying around her. Everyone was tearing up and I though she has passed on to a better place. Everyone stayed with her the whole night waiting for the doctor to tell us the results on how much longer she had to live.
The doctors finally came in and they called my dad and my aunty to discuss the problem and the doctor said she has about one month or less to live. That was the most hardest thing to hear for me. So we all took care and when she got a little better the doctor said that we could bring her home instead of staying here. I thought it was better and it was because more of our family members could spend time with her. As precious days went by and the days got closer the day came and everyone was a our house in her presents praying. As the time went down till it was very late we called it a night and everyone slept over out house.
Days went by even weeks my Grandma hardly survived even tho the doctors said she had months or less she survived more till the beautiful day around 1:00 a.m. my lovely grandma passed on with everyone on her side sharing tears of joy because we don't have to see her suffer anymore. I had to let her go cause I knew that she would be in a better place then here with no cancer just peace, But I will still keep those wonder memories when she took care ever since I was a little kid till now. These memories will always be in my heart.

My position Essay
My personal opinion on this article would be that it’s the peoples fault because there the ones not paying attention to anything that could look dangerous and to their surroundings. Such as when an incident happened in 2006 when a couple from California walked off a steep cliff near Opaekaa Falls in Kauai, but there was no trail in that area which it would be their fault because they weren’t following the right path to the sites. Also it could be the governments fault too because they didn’t but any warning signs that’s saying danger around this area, but it’s the peoples decision to listen. There are many deaths cause by bad decisions or accidents or just the why of life because you could be from a different place and not know the risk your taking by doing these things. Just like when a man turned his back against a wave and he got knocked over a cliff getting swept 100 yards offshore when he died. If people could be more careful and watch whats going on then these deaths wouldn’t happen. So I conclude that if there is signs warning you, you should obey them and follow the rules, but if there isn’t any people should make the right decision so they wont get hurt.
