1.If you could make one rule that everyone in the world had to follow, what would it be?
When I walk into a room my theme song would be “Eye of the Tiger.” I would choose this song because it’s so upbeat and it is so motivational. The music alone just makes you feel motivated the lyrics just adds to it! Also, it makes me feel motivated when I’m working out and I intentionally put this song on because it makes me want to try harder and push myself.
2.If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
My 14 tear old brother and I have a similar taste in style so whenever I go shopping he always comes with me to help decide on what to buy and he also helps me pick out my everyday clothes. Whenever we go to the mall we go straight to Zumiez mostly for their “cutting edge clothing.” Also because I get to bond with my brother as he gets older.
3.When do you feel a child or teen becomes an adult?
My favorite family vacation would have to be our last trip to Mexico. We stay with our aunts and cousins sometimes, it’s a tight fit withal of us in one house. But we always wake up early every morning so it feels like the days last longer. I especially enjoy it when we go to El Ojo de Agua and swim with the fish.
4.What do you feel you have learned in life that will be the most useful?
There is absolutely nothing else I love to do more than play soccer. A major reason I love to play is because my family loves to and we occasionally go out and play against each other. We always fall but get back up and laugh with each other, it is how we connect. Even my one year old brother loves to kick the ball.
