Educational or Future Plans: I intend to pursue a college degree of any sorts, Bachelor’s, Master’s, or even Doctorate’s, depending on the current situation or choices I’d be influenced by. I’ve applied to multiple colleges, to name a few; UT Austin, Texas A&M University, and Texas State. And plan to major in Agriculture Business & Management, or even a Liberal Arts degree. The way I see it, nothing is set in stone and if my mind may decide on another choice in the near future then must follow in its direction. I’m out to find the perfect job for me, one that I could go to everyday without ever actually feeling at work.

Clubs and Officer Positions: As of this school year, the only club I actively participate in is Debate. In the spur of the moment, I joined the organization, and turns out it wasn’t a bad idea. In general, one could describe what we do as “controlled arguing”. I find much comfort in being able to logically argue my point in a controlled environment. Otherwise, one would argue with no purpose because too often the “debate” leads to anger and frustration. In this event, only the even-tempered competitors who stay right minded can actually win.

Prior to Debate, however, I was involved with Academic Decathlon for the 2015-2016 school year. This club is truly the one which taught me the most about being honest with myself, never letting ego stand in the way, and about the world that surrounds our isolated lives. It involves studying and prepping seven guides for the objective events, and practicing or rehearsing for 3 other subjective events- ten events in all. You study every day, seven days a week, for seven months of the school year- holiday breaks included. Extreme amounts of discipline, time, and energy are put into practices so that you may out score and beat every competitor possible.

Accomplishments/Honors: For Academic Decathlon, I was regional champion, and helped the team in winning a State Championship for the first time in its 18 year long program. It was the first time in the nation’s history that a Title 1 school had accomplished such a thing. The State Senate, C.C. Caller Times newspaper, and local School Board recognized us for our academic achievements. Let's just say it was a big deal. More recently I was awarded the Corpus Christi Caller Times Distinguished Scholar Award, under the Achiever category. Of 260 applicants, only 40 were selected. So it was rather surprising when I was called into the office to be told that I had been selected. The newspaper displayed a rather affectionate article of my individual experience in it’s newspaper. And for this achievement, once again, I was recognized by the local School Board.
