Soccer team


This weekend it's been very exciting for me, because this last Friday our crockett soccer team had a game and we won, this has given us a lot of confidence to play the next game that we have on Tuesday against Eastside Memorial, and I'm hoping to score a goal, because I promised to my girlfriend to score a goal. It's our first game of the season so that is why we have to take it very seriously, doing the best we can to win this game and to start up with a victory what matters the most and to hopefully keep winning more games through all the season, and trying to get into the playoffs for the first time in three years that I've been playing for the Crockett soccer team.

Our new coach that we have has helped us a lot to improved in our soccer skills since he came, he has taught us a lot of new drills that in my opinion have been very successful for all of us in the team, he has also showed us to play together as a team and to help each one of our teammates.


We have been practicing a lot this week, even tough it's really cold out there on the field, many of my teammates are very excited and hoping to make it into the playoffs but they are also hoping to get some play time, because there is really a lot of competition in the team and sometimes it's really hard for some players to get some play time, but one of the things that I like is that we all support to each other and and that we all have a great communication with each other, that is a very important fact in all teams

New Year, Same Goal


This new year has brought a lot of good and bad things to me but mostly good things, starting by me having a lot of playing time in the Crockett soccer team, and it's also very exciting because I think that all the effort and work that we are putting into the team is finally giving us better results and I'm hoping that we can that we can continue doing the best we can to get the soccer team into a better place or even into the playoffs because I think that is time for us to finally get something good from all of the hard work that we have done for the team.

Unfortunately life it's not the way that you wanted it to be like and also bad things happen, recently my friend's dad died, something that really struck him and has made him change a lot I feel really sad for him because he really loved his dad and cared for him a lot I'm hoping that he can get over that quickly even tough it's going to be rally hard for him but with the help of his friends and family I'm sure that he will do fine.

We all need to be happy for this new year that came out and we all should be thankful for still been here alive and with the people we love around us, even tough sometimes for some people life is not always fair, we need to learn and accept the lessons that life puts in our lifes and that for some reason god is giving us all these lessons to make us better and stronger persons.

Winter Break


I had so much fun on this winter break with my friends and family, one of the things that I really liked about it is that I got to see all the people that I love gathered together to celebrate a very important time of the year like Christmas where everybody try their best to make happy the persons they love, that is one of the reasons why I love Christmas, because is the time where you give a present or things like that without expecting to get something back and also the time of the year when people express their love to the people that they love.

For Christmas in my family, we had some very typical food such as turkey, (ponche) which is a very typical drink for many hispanic people and we also had some tamales which were made out of chicken and I have to admit one thing, they were so delicious that I ate too many of them and as a result of that I ended up gaining some weight but the good thing is that all my family gathered together again to celebrate Christmas.

Another very special thing about things was that I got a lot of presents from my brothers and friends, one very special present that I got was a big portrait of me when I was two years old, it was very special for me because I really did not have any pictures of when I was little so that present was really significant to me, I think that it's even one of the best presents that I have gotten in my whole life, I also got some shoes and some electronic devices that I did not really needed them but I'm also thankful for the people who gave them to me.
