GREATEST IMPACT My dad has made the biggest impact on my life above everyone else. He taught me all of the necessary skills and techniques I know, from mechanic work to growing tomatoes. Above all, he taught me how to play guitar which is now my favorite thing to do. Without the ability to play guitar I wouldn’t to express myself so I owe a lot to my dad.
HOBBIES AND GOALS I love to sing and play guitar. I also like drawing, skateboarding, and listening to music. I dream to meet all of my favorite artists one day I dream to write and play music as a profession.
WHAT I DO WITH MY SPARE TIME. Throughout my life I’ve always had some sort of hobby. From drawing to making stop-motion videos with clay, I’ve always had the most fun partaking in artistic activities when I have nothing else to do. The more I took interest into music, the more I began practicing guitar and begging my dad to teach me everything he knew. To this day, when I have spare time I go grab my guitar and learn a new song or just play some songs I already know and I could do it all day.
SKILLS, ACHIEVEMENTS, AND GOALS Some skills I have acquired include mechanical, and technological skills. I can maintain a foreign vehicle, and fix infected computers. I also have done a lot of tedious yard work over the years so I can operate different lawn tractors and weed eaters. Achievements I have made are getting my first job, making it to the 12 th grade, and making such amazing friends over the past few years. Some goals I have are getting into college, getting a good paying job, and recording some music before the year is over. I am on the right track to achieve my goals and Im going to make sure I succeed in at least one of them.
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES Some strengths I have are my open mind and integrity towards everything. “If you smile at the world, the world smiles back,” my dad once told me. Weaknesses I have include helping others before myself too much, and anxiety problems on occasion. I stress badly over small problems without realizing it.
WORK STYLE AND EXPERIENCE I am a very focused and reliable worker when it comes to getting a job done. I try my best to stay organized and will go through so much to be on time. Some experience I have includes typical job knowledge I gained from working at Kroger, and a lot of lawn care skills from working with a yard work company over the summer.
