Introduction

I'm Ricardo De Carvalho, a student at Mater Lakes Academy. I have always been a sports fan, especially soccer, MMA, and basketball. I also like mathematics, and I am quite good at it, so I would like to one day become an aerospace engineer.

Work/School/ & Background

rdeca001 — 2025-09-15 01:31:43 UTC

I work on the weekends with my dad helping him and learning at the same time. I have been a student at Mater Lakes for more than 5 years and I would like to stay until I graduate. I was born in Venezuela but my family is Portuguese. I immigrated here when I was eight years old because my parents wanted to seek a better future for me and my siblings.

My favorite People

These two are my best friends; they are the ones who have always been there for me in the good times and especially in the bad. They are like brothers to me, and I know that if I need something, they will be there for me just like I am for them. If I need someone to make me laugh or to ask for advice, they are the ones I go to.

Personal interest, sports, clubs

I have always been a soccer fan since I was little, I have played, and I like it so much that I practically know everything about the sport. However, I recently tore my meniscus, and I decided that I would like to change and focus on other sports like MMA, which I have also liked since always.

Favorite show

The Walking Dead is my favorite show. Since the first time I saw it, I've watched it 3 times already, and every time I watch it, I realize things I had missed before. That's what makes me love it; everything is connected and has so much depth, each character is different and has a whole story behind them.

Future School or Goal in the future

rdeca001 — 2025-09-15 02:16:45 UTC

I have many goals that I hope will be fulfilled in the future. I hope to go to university and graduate. I would like to have a family with 2 kids and a woman I truly love, but for me, my most important goal is to be the best version of myself. I think that if you have the privilege of living, you should give your hundred percent so that one day you can look back and be proud of what you did with your life.

If you can have an unlimited supply of one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?

for me, coffee is indispensable. I can't imagine how sad my mornings would be without my latte at breakfast; it gives me energy for the whole day.

What is the best advice you have ever been given?

rdeca001 — 2025-09-15 02:40:56 UTC

For me, a good advice is not just a phrase; a good advice consists of sincere words that truly help you. But if I had to say a phrase that marked me, it would be "treat everyone the same way because that doesn't define the person, it defines you."
