13. essay The school I choose to research and write about was Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU). If I attend FMAU it would be a dream come true because I would get to do two of my favorite things. One, is get a education and become a teacher. Secondly, try out for the football team and hopefully get chosen. The things that I would do to achieve my goal of becoming a teacher is attend class, study hard and stay focused. The things that I would do to be a valuable football player is attend practice, study and learn the plays, be a team player and work hard. Although one of my goals is to become a professional football player, my main goal is to get a good education because there are no guarantees in a football career. But, there will be many doors open for me if I get a good education and I know FAMU can give that to me.
