Where I'm From

I’m from a time of being the nerd–
     Getting straight A’s, doing my homework, and volunteering in      class
Hard-working, motivated, determined...

I am from the small town of Merton–
     Population of 3,488, 30 minutes west of Milwaukee, and the        one thing in the winter to do and stay warm is to go bowling
Quiet, lonesome, and boring...

I’m from hours of hard-work–                                                          Studying for school, working out daily until my body cannot          go on, and playing football on summer days where the heat        radiates off of the turf

Studious, athletic, and football fanatic...

I am from a family of five, where I am the oldest–
     Parents that are well-off financially due to their success, 12          year old sister who is as sweet as Hershey’s chocolate, and 11      year old brother is my mini-me
Family, lover, and tight-knit...

I’m from pressure to be my best–
     Checking my grades daily to maintain my 4.0, giving 110% in      the weight room, and providing encouragement and help to          my younger siblings to let them know that I am there for            them
Tedious, grinder, and role model…

I am from a time with opportuning–
     I’m going to attend Princeton University, play football, and          get a degree that can’t be matched
Tiger, wide receiver, and educated...
