I’m happiest when … I am spending time with the people I love. 

Someday I’m going to … play college soccer.


When I’m really down, what I want to do is …  talk and hang out with my best friend.

I feel anxious … for next year.

I like people who … are fun to be around.

All it takes to make me happy is … food and soccer. 

What I really want to do is … play on the beach with my friends and family. 

I wish that … it was warmer outside. 

I don’t like when people are … immuture.

A person really should ... live like they were dying.

I just hate it that … power and greed rule the world.

I just love it that ... I'm going to have a sleepover this weekend.

My family

My family is a soccer team, we work together and for each other.
My father is the coach always directing and supporting us.
My mother is the ref keeping us all in line.
My sister is the forward always creating.
My other sister is the defense, always strong in what she believes.
My youngest sister is the wing player always full of energy and eager for the ball.
My best friend is the fan who is a critical part of the team,
even though she isn't on the actual team.
I am the captain of the team always looking after the rest of the team,
making sure they always know that I'm there for them.

Lean on Me Music Video


Lean on Me by Bill Withers


Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show

You just call on me brother, when you need a hand (Chorus)
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Second Verse
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

You just call on me brother, when you need a hand (Chorus)
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (Call me)
Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (if you ever need a friend)
Call me (Call me)
Call me
Call me (if you need a friend)
General Idea
Every single human bean hates the feeling of loneliness. Most people fear being alone and having no one there to help them. In this song he’s letting the person he loves know that they can lean on him, that they don’t have to go through it alone. He will be there for them when they are going through a rough time and in turn he knows they will be there for him when he’s going through a hard time. He also tells all of us that we have someone we can lean on, we just have to call and let them help you.
Quote Inferences
We all have pain/We all have sorrow/But if we are wise/We know that there's always tomorrow:---The first two lines tell me that he knows all too well of the pain and sorrow of this world. It also tells me that he knows he’s not the only one who has gone through it. Over the years he has gotten wise and hasn’t let one rough patch strop him from living. He always knows tomorrow will come and the sorrow and pain wont last.

If there is a load you have to bear/That you can't carry/I'm right up the road/I'll share your load/If you just call me: ---This is a vey caring and loving man. He is willing to bear the load with his friend so his friend wont feel as much weight on his back. All he needs is his friend to let him help, to trust him. He is the friend we all hope to have, one that will always think of us first and themselves second.
