   "Writing My Story To success," a blog to illustrate the journey of one person's writing. This title shows the pursue of success through hard work. My blog has a background of a road to show the journey ahead for me to reach my goal. Knowing that my desire for success is something that is earned and from that, I know that it is going to take time and effort. With my blog, I will show my unique voice. Through my writing I will express my emotions. With all kinds of opportunities ahead, I will attempt to make the best of them.

   The world I come is a good one. By "good" I mean satisfying. I believe that the world I come from is the right mixture of bad and good. Coming from a family of four and my only other relatives in Hawaii my uncles, most days were enjoyable. I would be able to think back and say, " Today was a good day." Those days would consist of days where we would play tether ball during lunch and talk under a tree during A+. When I would come home, there would be a great joy of laughter as we talked about during our dinner. However, not all days would be like that. there would be times where there would be big arguments in the house, whether it was between my parents, between me and my sister, or all together, there would always be a time of silence to follow. We would not talk while we ate, we would not say good night. But as a new day came along, we all went about with a smile. A perfect mixture of good and bad.

   Drumming and playing soccer, my hobbies. Two things that I adore to do on my free times. Activities that make my day better. The feeling is a one of a kind. When I play the drums I feel a bit more creative, I try to do fills and other things. When I play in front of church, I feel a sliver of pride as I look at the people. I also feel a small bit of pride when I play soccer, soccer is the only sport I play and I love it. The frustration it gives me in trying new skills and tricks helps me. I truly believe that the frustration helps me. It motivates me to get better. When learning a new skill, I try it a couple of times and I do not get it right, but I keep trying. These two hobbies taught me to not give up and keep going.

   My likes and dislikes are very simple. I like to do many things such as running and going on my phone. I love the wind as it flows by while I run, it is a marvelous feeling of various things. My phone gives me things to do when I am bored. It is like a boredom medicine where it cures my boredom at times. Growing up, I never liked certain things. I never liked broccoli. It is unknown if it is because of how it is made or the vegetable itself. Celery was another thing. I could never stand the bitterness of celery even with the ranch. The white ranch would drip down to my plate as I tried my bite of the green stalk, the first 2 seconds would be filled with the taste of ranch and soon filled with the bitterness. Some things, I just never can like.
