About Me

Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try
Why am I dying to live when I'm just living to die....

My Interests

I like sports.. I'll play pretty much anything...swimming, football, basketball, baseball, volleyball, tennis, golf etc. I also enjoy playing piano, writing songs and producing music. Right now I'm training to make the Olympic Swim Team so most of my time will be spent in the gym and the pool for the next few years. If you want to track the progress of my training check out my blog at: www.dkjr.blogspot.com

Heroes:

Without a doubt, my hero is my grandmother. She taught me everything. She fought through cancer but then eventually lost her 2nd battle with it years later. Her spirit is what motivates me to this day. She is the reason that no matter what people say, I have to chase my dreams and never give up. I remember when she was in the hospital she told me to go get her hair curlers so she could do her hair. She always had a positive outlook on life. I know I'll never be able to life up to her standards but I live my life hoping to never let her down. I know no one is perfect but she is the closest thing to it that this earth will ever see. I love you and miss you more than anyone could ever imagine. R.I.P Margaret Longo.
