Mark+S.'s+Introduction+and+Goals

All About Me  My name is Mark and I am 10 years old. I attend Saticoy School and I am in the fifth grade in room 2. We have 6 really cool pets. Let me tell you some details about my family. I have one brother, 2 dogs, a mom, and a dad, and one gold fish. When I was born, I was adopted and I had to stay at a foster care. I don't remember where it was but I know that there are people that are still there. When my dad first walked in the foster house, he knew I was the one. I was perfect for him! When he walked in the house the lady in charge asked, "Do you want to take him to McDonald's?" My dad answered no becouse he wouldn't want to bring me back but keep me forever. They had a good laugh over that one! Here is some detail about my friends. My best friends are Donovan, Justin, Peyton, and Aaron. These are my friends because I have known them for my whole life. I know Donovan,Justin,and Peyton fron school, and I know Aaron from Lighthouse Christian Fellowship Church. My favorite sports are football and baseball. I like football because if you are mad at someone on the team you can run up and tackle him without getting in trouble! How cool is that! I like baseball because I like to hit the ball and run and slide. Out of my whole year playing baseball for Saticoy Little League, I had one home run and like 40 triples. At my house I always get a group of people and we have a football game in the middle of the street. It's always two hand touch because if you tackle, someone is going to get hurt. Concrete is not very forgiving...  My personal goals are get better at divishen frashens and read more. I only need to get better at harder divishen and harder frashens. I am only good at the easy divishens and frashens Im not good at the hard stoff. My Academic goals are to get good grades and get my deploma and became a profeshenal bmxer. I wish that i could do every jump and when i do a jump i beleave in my self and i try harder and harder and i go bigger and bigger every sigel time. At my house in the bush there is this strange lizard and it has a snake tail and a snake tongue and a lizard body. Isn't that crazy? A couple of days ago I found out what it is. It is called a AlogatorLizard I chough him and he is my new pet and he is in my tank. I feed him crickets and mealworms. I haven't named him yet. Here's an interesting fact about me. When I was 4 I had stitches. In my back yard I had people make a brick wall and there was a gap and there was webar in the middle and I was jumping back in fourth and I fell in the ditch and the webar went up the side of my noise and I got like 45 stitches. It really hurt. It was kind of weid becouse it hurt so much that it dided hurt. As you can see, I really enjoy doing outdoor stuff. Thats All About Me.
