My Ultimate Goal in Life
“When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful.” A
quote by Eric Thomas, from a motivational video I watched one day. Its senior year and time is ticking till
graduation. As I transform into a mature adult, it is time for me to make decisions and set out what I
want to be in life. My ambitions are to obtain an athletic scholarship for football, to help pave the way
to becoming a civil engineer. It will be a bumpy ride along the way, but I can propel myself to achieve
anything. I anticipate though sports such as football, can fund for my schooling to become a civil
engineer. If I have a phenomenal upcoming season I can hopefully get recognized by athletic scouts and
receive a full ride scholarship to a university. Though the off season I trained arduously to improve my
talents as a player. Once I have reached my goal of becoming a student athlete in college, I will study a
great deal to reach my main objective of becoming a civil engineer.
Civil engineers deal with the designing of roads, bridges, and major highways. They construct the major structures around a city .The description of civil engineers, are to be fluid in mathematics and sciences. Therefore, I have enrolled in Calculus A.P. and Physics 2 A.P. These are rigorous courses to take, but both are the foundations of engineering. So why not get a step ahead of my competition? I might as well get these courses over with in high school so I can roll right into college already knowing what to expect. if I have the college credit early in my schooling career , it would land me a potential spot to getting internships during the summers. I am also taking an engineering class in high school where I can get my certifications on different programs, that civil engineers use . The class will also improve my artistic skills needed to become a civil
