DUDE 09


One of the goals i have accomplished is i became more involved with the school. This
year i became a member of the Farragut Admirals wrestling team. Along with this goal i also managed to keep my grades up during the wrestling season. This was my first year wrestling at Farragut and i started in November of 2008 and since then i have come a long way. i attend my first wrestling tournament at Kelly high school, i wrestled in the 215lb class . And I came out of that tournament as the fourth place 215lbs champ. 

 I have learned many lessons in 2008, one of them being  is to never  give up. At the beginning  of my young wrestling career all I could think about is quitting and tell myself that wrestling was not the sport for me. I felt this way because I was just  getting my ass kick in every wrestling match I competed in.  Then one day i was on my computer i found this quote and it just  got to me it  said that we just don't recognize the significant moments in our lives
while there happening. we grew a compilation with ideas, things or people and we take
them for granted and its usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you
till you realize how wrong you've been that you realize how much you really need it, how much you love it. And dude I stayed in wrestling  and a few weeks later i won my first metal at Kelly high school's tournament.

One of my new years resolutions is to set my mind to things and to quit making excuses and  giving myself reasons why not can't do something i want to do.
