When I grow up 4/24/2012


When I grow up


Authors Note: I am writing this piece to tell you what I want to be when I grow up.


          What do I want to be when I grow up? When I grow up I want to be a football player, a fireman, or a painter. I want be a football player because I love the sport and it’s my passion. Also I’ve played and watched football my entire life with my family. The three things that I want to be when I grow up are a football player, a fireman, or a house painter.


          I want to play for the Carolina Panthers because they’re my second favorite team and Cam Newton is my favorite NFL football player. Cam Newton was picked first overall by the Panthers in the 2011 NFL draft. I think it would be really cool to catch a touchdown pass from Cam Newton.

          If being a football player doesn’t work I want to be a fireman. I want to be a fireman because I would love to know that every day I am helping somebody or saving someone’s life. Also I would like to ride the fire truck. The best thing though would be to be able to slide down the fire pole. Did you know that every year fires take thousands of of lives and destroy properties worth millions of dollars.

          Another thing that I would want to be is a house painter. I would want to be a house painter because it’s part of the family business. My grandpa started the business and he still paints. My dad, my older brother, and I all work for him.

          So in conclusion when I grow up I want to be a football player, fireman, or a painter. If I was a football I would want to play for the Carolina Panthers because I would be playing with my favorite NFL player. If I was a fireman I would love to have that feeling of knowing that you helped somebody. Lastly if I was a painter I would just be happy to keep the family business going.
