Passion blog

One of my many passions is skating. I’ve been skating for about 5 months now and it’s so much fun. Skating is a really great escape if you’re mad or just stressed out about homework (blog) or something like that. It’s a sign of freedom and no worries when you feel that cold wind hit your face while riding fast. Unless you hit a death pebble then you’re pretty much out of luck. But other than that, it feels amazing.
Once you get comfortable riding your skateboard around you start to learn tricks. The ollie is one of first tricks you learn do and a foundation for the other tricks. Once you learn the ollie and can do it almost all the time, you can ollie over big cracks, curbs, down stairs, and gap stuff. When you ollie over something or land a flip trick you feel like you can do anything. You might even feel like you can do something crazy which you probably can’t and will most likely end up breaking a bone or something of that nature, but you don’t really care because you’re in the “zone”.
Another one of my passions is soccer. I’ve played soccer since I was in 5th grade I believe. It all started when my dad signed me up for a league without telling me. I’ve never even touched a soccer ball before and he expected me to play? But I have, however, watched soccer on TV every once in a while and knew some things about it. Also my older brothers taught me over time how to be a better player and defender. I played right side defender for a team called Santos that my dad ended up coaching. He became couch because all the people came to him when we first started our soccer team. Over time I really came to love soccer. I’m actually really glad he signed me up.

Brayan’s Autobiography

Greetings! My name is Brayan Gamez Robles, my life before high school was a bit calm and mellow. I mean sure, my life had its ups and downs but I regret nothing. Before high school I attended Fesler Jr. High. I met a lot of new friends there. And some people that I will never forget. So before high school I use to actually get good grades in 7th grade, but for some strange reason in 8th grade everything seemed to go uphill from there.
During high school I found some interesting hobbies I never knew I would like, such as skating. I enjoy skating and have been doing it for about five months now. I skate mostly everyday and I also did that every day of summer vacation. Another hobby I found was handball. Well, I played handball since 7th grade but it’s still fun to play. And I taught myself how to play the piano over summer to.
After high school I don’t really know what to do with my life. If I still don’t have an idea of what to do by the time I graduate, I’m going to attend Hancock for one year and then go to the Marines like my brother. The reason why I plan on doing one year at Hancock then going to boot camp is because after boot camp you become a private first class which means you get paid more because you attended college. After serving four years in the Marines I might server four more and after that, I might become a cop. The main reason why I think about joining the Marines is because they travel a lot and that’s something I plan on doing later on in my life. But for now, I feel like don’t have to worry about all that. All I have to worry about is finishing this assignment before midnight.
