Tired. Hello to whomever this may read it, my name is Eldwin Figueroa and my major is business. At first I thought that me choosing this major would be a boring major, but it turned out to be interesting and very informative sure some subjects might be boring but it’s all very intuitive.

I don’t have much of a dream but a goal, and that goal is to be successful and to make my family proud. But that’s just part of my main goal, the second part would be to just enjoy life and make the most out of by gaining skills and lessons along the way. But anyways I am glad to have joined this class.

Adversity. I chose this word because I feel we all have challenges but not everyone fully commits to their dreams, admissions, or plans and they just end up quitting. But I believe to have meaningful full growth you need some type of challenge. I’m excited for this class considering English is my favorite subject but I’m a little concerned because the class is fully remote and I find it harder to concentrate and communicate, but those are problems I know I can handle.
As for my winter break, it was ok I got to play basketball indoors which I haven’t done in a minute but I did get sick right after, I probably should’ve listened to my moms and I wore more than just a hoodie outside, but I’m just glad it wasn’t covid.

I didn’t really know which photo to pick so I chose one of my idols to show how someone who is considered one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball had his own struggles, even before he was drafted scouts said “His jump shot needs immediate improvement if he wants to survive a league dominated by the likes of Moses Malone, Parish, and Artis Gilmore”. So what did he do he mastered the jump shot and fadeaway and is now known as the best to do so; not only did he dominate the league for many years he surpassed all those other players. I find inspiration in how hungry and driven he was and it makes me want to put in the work to reach higher levels, just so maybe one day I can fly like Mike.

Challenge-Hello my name is Luis Medrano; I am a freshman majoring in Architecture. English in general is very difficult for me over these last few years but I will try to challenge myself to make the best writing I can make. Being an architect would be great, but my ultimate dream would be to become a pro soccer player. I practice a lot during my free-time and a field is a place to release my stress and relax really. I try my best to balance everything in my life from my passion to soccer, to dedicating time to learn in college.

I chose this image to show that I believe in hard work, whether it be sports, studies, etc. That I want to fight for my dreams and work all I can to become who I want to be and even when it gets rough, to keep going and that one day, I get to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Hopefully everyone is having a great day, I’m happy to be in this class, and have a great semester everyone.
