I have very few favorite things. Most of them are done outside like fishing and hunting. I also really enjoy camping and hiking.

My other favorites are Copenhagen all flavors and Stokers Straight. I like working on trucks and cars because it is fun. Preferably older motors since they have less to no sensors.

When I was a kid we moved a bit from Branson to Ridgedale. After Ridgedale we moved to San Diego. From San Diego we moved to Galena then back to Branson from Branson here to Ozark.

Since we moved to Ozark we have stayed living in the same house ever since. Its nice knowing that we own our house and ain’t losing it.

My best friend is my buddy Dylan and my old lady. I’ve been friends with Dylan since I was 12 and we went to the car show in Branson. My old lady and I have been best friends for the past 3 years. Pretty much everything I do she is with me except skipping school. She has to be the smart one since that ship has long sailed away for me.

My hobbies are working on motors and fishing. If I’m not doing that then I am at work making money.

When I was younger I used to play football for Branson but when I moved up here it was mid season so I stopped and haven’t played since. I also used to do track but for Ozark but I don’t like to run so I stopped that also.

Before me there was my mom and dad. They lived with my great grandmother and great grandfather.

My mother was 20 when she had me, my parents weren’t married and they didn’t. My dad ended up in prison and my mom ended up in the hospital.

In 10 years I see myself married to my old lady starting a family probably and well into a career. For my career choice it would have to be diesel mechanics ever since I was a kid I have been fascinated with working on motors. If I am given the opportunity I will open my own shop which will work on everything from daily drivers, hot rod muscle cars, diesels and even semi trucks.

I see myself living in the country surrounded by lots of land. When I own my own house I want there to be ponds, woods, and a creek that runs on it. Hopefully there will be good hunting, fishing, and trapping on the land. If there isn’t then I will be doing what I can to bring them onto the land; feed plots, stocking ponds, and even doing live releases on the property to increase the numbers.

If I could live my life over I would have not moved in with my dad, I would have never talked to him or tried to have a relationship with him.

Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing.

Honestly this year is the year that I have slacked the most it just hit me hard that what’s the point if I’m making money why should I go spend 7 hours learning stuff that I won’t need in the future. I’m not going to need to be able to present I can turn a wrench when I could just do the job get it done and get paid more because it is quicker than having someone watch me the whole time asking what I’m doing which I don’t mind if I’m helping someone. I ain’t  going to need this French or Algebra 2.

I haven’t taken Senior pictures yet, I’ve still got dues to pay and I didn’t mess with the invitations because I’m not concerned about it I would rather be making money. Everyone is planning on having a party after I graduate but I plan on getting the last of my things and moving out. I’m not one for dances I’ve been to one and almost started beating the hell out of people so I am just going to stay away from that stuff, I ain’t been to a game since sophomore year either to many dumbasses that get on my nerves so I just stay at the creek or on the river or the lake or literally just sitting with my old lady at one of our houses.

I was born at Skaggs hospital in Branson, Mo, on Sept. fourth of 1999. As far as I know I had a normal birth besides I was born facing up. I was named after my dad’s dad.

In my first few years of life we lived in merriam woods, then we moved to a trailer in the bad part of Branson’s trailer parks, I would have to say for being a kid it was good even though my dad was a piece of shit dick. In my first 5 years I remember our house getting shot up because my dad ripped someone off, I remember my dad beating my mom, and I remember him going to prison.

I have some good memories of me and my grandpa though we’d be out in the shop doing literally anything just talking and I’d be acting like him. I remember me and my cousins used to go and get his empty beer cans and fill them up with water and act like we were getting drunk, or we’d take my toy jeep through the “mud” then we’d fill buckets up with water and be firemen running around the house with the water on putting out the “fire”. We had the neighbor girl be our receptionist and she would sit in the old shed and take calls for us, hell I wish I was a kid again Mrs. Rice.

At that time my younger brother was born but he was only 2 so  he didn’t get to run around with us but we still included him in watchin Nascar, King of the Hill or Beavis and Butthead. My mom would have been pregnant with my sister or was just about to be. I didn’t have any childhood illnesses and I enjoy listening to all of the stories because there is a lot that I blocked out from my childhood so its nice to hear the good and not just remember the bad things that happened.

I’m 18 years old, about 6 foot tall  and weigh 160 pounds. I have three tattoos a bobber on my right shoulder and Homegrown Honkey on my forearms. I was born in Branson but have lived all over SW Mo and even lived in San Diego for a little bit. My mom and dad were together off and on until I was 6 which led to her having 3 kids to support then my step dad started to come around. About a year or so after that my grandma and grandpa got a divorce and he moved to Stockton and she moved to Fall Creek. A few months later we moved from Branson to Ridgedale, we lived there for about a year, then we moved to California where we lived for 9 months, when we moved back we moved to Galena which was my favorite place we had like 2 neighbors and we could ride our 4 wheeler or go walk in the woods by our house. One time me and my brother went in the woods and didn’t come out for like 5 or 6 hours and my mom got  freaked out. After 2 years of living there we moved back to Branson. We lived in Branson for a year and a half then we moved here and have lived here since.

My favorite things to do is pack fat dips, be doing outdoors stuff or spending time with my old lady. If I could be doing one thing it would be at the river with a line in the water a tent pitched and a case of bud light in my cooler. I am a Southern Baptist Christian.
