Past, Present, and Future


I was born in Yamaguchi, Japan at Iwakuni hospital. Reason why I was born there is because my Dad was in the military and was stationed to Japan, he met my Mom there and later got married. I was born in October 7, 1992. I can’t remember much while I was in Japan, but in August 16, 1994 my brother Alex was born. By the time I turned 3, my Dad was stationed back to America at Texas. My Mom left Japan and moved to Texas with me, Alex and my Dad. I lived in Wichita Texas for three years and during that time I went to my first school, Bulldogs Elementary. When I turned 6, my Dad was stationed to Port Hueneme, California. My family and I lived inside the Channel Islands Military Base for a few years until my Dad finally retired from twenty years of service. We all moved to Oxnard and my Dad is currently living his life in the civilian world. After moving, Alex and I kept constantly fighting over little things that’s not a big deal, so my Mom suggested my brother and I should separate from each for a while. I took her suggestion and moved back to Japan and lived with my Grandparents for a year (I was 12 at that time). Attended Kamigoto Jr. High School for the year and a lot of people there hated me because I’m an American, half-white, and they still holding a grudge from WWII. The year finally ended and I moved back to California, surprisingly Alex and I get along real easily. Soon as I got back, I attended Oxnard High School and graduated 2010.

          After I graduated, I took a year beak from school. My goal is to join the military and serve as an Airman and become a Pararescue.  During my year break, I’ve been study for the asvab (Armed Service Vocational aptitude battery) and after three tries I didn’t succeed and reach my goal. Because of my failure, I decided to go to college and try to earn my bachelor towards medical to help gain me the upper hand for Pararescue.

          I haven’t had anything planed for my future other then join the military and see the world. I’m not planning on starting a family anytime soon. Who knows? Anything can happen. If I want to achieve something in life, I have to work for it
