In my ideal future, I’ll be an engineer. If I don’t make that, I will play football. I would like to be a middle linebacker, halfback, quarterback or on the line.

My hands are built for speed and hardness, to pound when I am angry…but I don’t use that type of anger, in case I just can’t control it. All my anger is building inside. I always pound down the ground when it’s football time.

People see all of my sides. I’ve changed. Things will never be the same.

I was once a punk, scary, and just plain letting people run over me. It used to happen. No toughness.

I am in my heart the hardest I’ve seen yet, and the hardest I’ve been yet. It’s just not going to change, no matter the circumstances.

I will be the hardest, toughest, the unstoppable…the “never-gonna-stop” person. The judge is not going to run over me.

On Photography
Taking pictures is a good expression of myself. I like photographing fences, clouds, water and flowers.

I photograph clouds because they remind me of my mom. My best memories of her are church, going over Bible verses and watching TV together.
