Athletic, outgoing, and resourceful are a couple of words I like to use to describe myself. How I got to be athletic, outgoing, and resourceful took a long time to be that way. Growing up I hung out with my family a lot. I could always remember doing extreme stunts at home. Jumping off of trees into my pond wasn’t really a smart idea. But anyways, I got to be athletic because of my dad. If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be really good at soccer. He would tell me to train everyday. But now since I’m older I push myself to the limit. I won’t stop till I get something right when I’m skateboarding.
During my preteen years, I was always pushing myself to accomplish my goals. My goals were something like being a pro skateboarder which is still my top goal to becoming a fighter pilot in the Air Force. I could remember like it was yesterday that I wanted to be like someone I saw on TV. But I then realized that I don’t have to be like anyone and just be myself. Then I came up with my own phrase “I am nobody, but that makes me a somebody”.
Usually when I’m out and about I skateboard. Sometimes I won’t be able to find anything to jump on or off of. So I would just rig something up like a piece of plywood propped on something. That’s being resourceful. I’m really resourceful when it comes to wood because I can turn really old scraps of wood into useful things around my house.
Well this is all I can think of for now. But this is who I am…….Steven Easterling.
