Near and Dear

For my near and dear  , i provided pictures of my grandpa. 

This was a picture took on his birthday party

He passed away earlier this year, but he is one of the most important people in my life still. four years before he passed away, my grandmother did, and it made me realize that time passes by quick and you have to enjoy the time you have with the people you love. Because you never truly know how long you have.

Another photo of him on his birthday (p.s its around christmas)

He was a wonderful person and someone i will always look up to ! i remember going to their house and he would always be sitting in his chair next to the table. Even if i cant go back in time Every moment is cherished, and he is still in my heart (:

All the advice and stories i got told since i was a child to the time i was 14 will stay with me for the rest of my life.

MY Special Place

My special place to go to is out on a soccer  field

It Started When I was Younger

Since i was in the 3rd Grade i played soccer on different teams, i loved it from the start and began to realize it was a really great way to spend my time . I was on a team for two years that never lost then moved on to a competitive team.

But instead I Decided to be a Referee 

Just last year i began classes and became an official for soccer games. I love doing it, and its the highlights of my weekends. It brings pay every other week , which makes it even more worth it.

These pictures were took while i was at the Boo Games, a tournament for all ages U14 and under. The pink shoe strings were given to me by my coordinator, and were to be worn by all referees in support of Breast Cancer Awareness.

Why ? Because i love it ! Thats Why ! 

I love playing soccer and i especially love being a referee ! Ive met tons of new people, coaches, and teams ! It grants me connections in the soccer community around sacramento. It offers me a way to get my mind off of the entire world , along with the opportunity to get some exercise And watch some pretty good teams go against each other !
