6th Blog

 In my English class my teacher Mr. Lee told us to present a presentation on our projects so far and I am preparing it this weekend and also and more information to my story. My grandma helped me gather information about my cousin and I also interviewed my cousin with thirteen questions. I am now starting to finally get a hold of my project. I cant wait to share my insight of my cousin and   hope everyone will enjoy it. I know that everyone one has their own views or insights on people.  I decided since Hebron is my cousin that I would create the story on him of how he made it to NFL football and since he's my cousin I can ask him for information when ever I want  so it is easier for me to write the story than if I did not know him. I chose to write a story on my cousin because he is a good role model of hard work and his example is helping me strive to do my best in everything that I do. If I were to think of a phrase every time I think of him that phrase would be " Hard work beats talent when talent is not working hard.

5th blog



Hebron Fangupo is a man I show respect to as a cousin. Although he is my cousin by law I feel as if we are brothers. He and I would work out at the gym sometimes and even play some basketball and man let me tell you that when he drives with the basketball to the hoop he seems to be unstoppable and immovable just like a Rhino running through a herd of sheep. Hebron is a man that lives up to his values and cherishes his family and beliefs as a Mormon at the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints. He is a perfect example to me or in other words role model. I truly respect him for his faith in serving for our church on a 2 year mission in the Philippines where he left college football to learn the language and share the gospel of Jesus Christ. To me Hebron is someone that can be truly called a man. I myself will hope to carry some of his traits when I grow up I mean my father is not in my life so I teach my self habits I should attain and I choose who to look up to and I can say that he is one of those for me.

            On my 20 percent project I am starting to work on it more now and add stuff to my story.I have been thinking about my cousin lately and have been trying to have the same type of grit he has. Something my cousin would always tell me is " Always do your best in everything you do" and when he says this it doesn't matter what you might be doing but as long as you do your best in what it is. Most success people if not all I think share something in common and what that is, is a powerful word which is called motivation and a mental drive or ability and I really think one person can have that by attaining  grit or integrity. My cousin worked hard to make it to where he is now and I am looking forward to sharing my story about him with others. This weekend  I am going to work on my story  and make sure I also prepare my presentation on the project as well. So as you can see I have a lot to do but that is good if I use my time wisely I can get a lot done and I myself am a football player and I am using my cousins example to help build up on my personal goals and techniques. I cant wait to share information on my cousin with you guys. Here is a picture of my cousin.
