Poem to Scott Lawrence

It’s ok to not live up to your family’s legacy
If you were to do that you may have a lot of difficulties
Whatever you feel is best for you
Do that to show the real you
I know you’re struggling to be something you’re not
But dreams aren’t suppose to be stagnant
Believe what feel and feel what you believe
Dreams are like manners, they deserve better treatment

Introduction

Hello, my name is William Blake. I am a junior and I attend Ben.C.Rain High School. I have many hobbies/extracurricular activities I enjoy. My favorite hobby has to be JROTC. JROTC has taught me many things that I can use in life and has offered me many opportunities. I am also apart of Ben C. Rain's football team. My coaches have taught me a lot throughout the season and I use what they have taught me and I apply it to my everyday life. My last hobby is being a member of the band. The band is excting, but it is not all about the music, it also teaches discipline and how important teamwork is. My favorite subject is History. I like playing video games, working out, and hanging out with friends. My expectations for this year is to: increase my GPA per semester, keep my grades at a A average, and to score a 30 on my ACT. I am excited to see what is the outcome of this school year!
