*Growing Up*

When I grow up I always wanted to be professinal football player but if that dosen't work out I would want to be a cop. I always wanted to be fighting crime and helping people all around. When I was a kid I always used to pretend I was a cop and arrest my brother with fake handcuffs. The D.A.R.E program got me started with wanted to be a cop mostly. I like how my D.A.R.E teacher Officer Ted told all of his stroy as a cop and his arrests. I also liked the summer police academy a lot I met a lot of new friends there and had a lot of fun. If I become a cop i have many decisions of what to be after that like joining the S.W.A.T. I really hope I become a cop when I grow up I know I would have a lot of fun doing my job.

**New Year's Resolution**

My New Year's resolution is to write down my homework a lot more in school. I've decided to make this my resolution because my homework averages have been getting lower and that is because of not writing down my homework. I can accomplish this goal by writing down my homework right away when i get into class instead of talking to my friends. My second New Year's resolution is to get better grades in English. I've decided to make this my resolution because my grades are getting low in Englisht he past weeks and I hate getting low grades. I can accomplish my resolution by not fooling around in class and getting all of my work done on time. I usually forget my homework in English so thats why my first resolution is doing all of my homework. I hope i accomplish both of my New Year's resolutions!
