I am very thankful for my family. They always and always will be in my heart. My family has always giving me the small things in life, being there when I need them the most. Loving me for who I am. My dad, who is my biggest role model. He has taught me to respect people for who they are and to not judge a book by its title. My mom, who is the most passionate person I will ever know, she is always there for me when I need to vent out, she is there when I need her. Finally she has taught me respect myself for who I am.

I also thank god. God has a plan for me and though I do not know that plan I feel that I am on track to what he has in store for me. He has giving me loving parents. He is letting me compete in both of my dreams as playing collegiate soccer and volleyball. God has also giving me life's curveballs that from them I have learned from them and is helping me in life. Finally I am thankful for him allowing me to go to college.
