Hey I'm Evanessa V, My goals for life, and ninth grade. There are so many, but I'll list my top four. I've already accomplished scoring many goals and saving many in eight years of soccer. Jumping off a twelve foot rock into freezing water at King's Canyon. Catching a twenty-two inch fish in Colorado. Having to wear an eye patch like a pirate in second grade. My life so far at fourteen might be considered a wild ride. My family is one of those families that everybody loves and wants to be around. I have two great parents that take care of my two sisters and myself. I'm the oldest of three girls, Shiloah, who is thirteen, and Quinlan who is six years old. We also have a new member of the family, our new German Shepard puppy, Annabell. I couldn't ask for a better family that excepts me the way I'm.

I'm very determined in doing the best I can in academics. My first goal is to have a 4.0 throughout the entire school year. Secondly, when I'm in need of help, always ask for help, either from a fellow classmate or my teachers. Third, to not procrastinate and always show up prepared everyday. Also to be responsible for all my assignments, and help other students in need.

My social skills need a little bit of improvement though. When it comes to being social, I'm good sometimes, then other times I'm not. During any sports teams I'm on, I'm social because I have something in common with them, I enjoy playing the same sport. But at school it can be hard to find out what you have in common with people. So one of my goals this year is to put myself out there and introduce myself to new people, and make new friends.

My goals for athletics are crucial in becoming the best player I can be, on the BHS soccer team. No matter what team I'm on, I'm going to make the best out of it. Secondly, I am hoping to create relationships that will last a life time, and friends that I can always go to for advice or help. Thirdly, after every game to be able to compliment a girl on the other team, to show good sportsmanship, and just to be friendly. Also to be able to improve on my goalie techniques and become a better field player. Lastly, to follow all the rules, and show respect to all of my coaches, and fellow players.

My goals for life. To start with, even though it's a big stretch, I would love to be a keeper in the 2016 Olympics. That's my biggest life goal I have right now, and I will do anything to make it happen. Another is to be able to buy a well earned blue camaro with white stripes. Also I would like to be able to sky dive once, and to do a cartwheel, correctly. Lastly, I want to rock out at least at one instrument, guitar, drums, or a piano. These are my ninth grade goals I would like to accomplish in my life.
