Introduction to My Life

Hello everybody!  My name is Jack Morgan, and I am a 15 year old boy who is a lover of many things.  I love to play baseball, hang out with friends, and do anything that involves being outside.  I am not the kind of person that likes to sit in a classroom all day, however, for I would rather be doing something active.  Just because I don't enjoy school as much as other things, I still don't mind reading a good book.  Some books that I have read in the past that I have enjoyed are the Alex Rider series and the Biography of Jackie Robinson.  This year in english, my goal is to improve my vocabulary and become a better writer.  Both of these things are a huge part of english, so if I can improve those skills this year, it will help me a lot in the future.  As an athlete there are many quotes that I like to live by both on and off the field.  The one that tops them all, however, is a quote by NFL champion head coach Vince Lombardi.  "Its not whether you get knocked down, its whether you get back up."  This quote means alot to me because it is very insparational and says a lot about my personality.
