So ive been thinking about my future and how i didnt know what i wanted to be...
yes i did but it took a little encouregment from a friend to go through with it :)
I want to be a UFC fighter, laugh if you have to but in a few years when i'm holding a
championship belt above my head on tv, i'll remember who supported me and who didnt. I
gotta get serious about training, no more "it's to cold to run" and such. I'm gunna ask my instructors if they can offer any extra help, and make sure im working to my best in every class. I dont care if people think i'm chasing a dream that will never happen. This is what i need to be happy, and it's time I stop letting other people tell me what dreams I can and can't reach. Its gunna be a few years before im good enouph, and i'll try balancing college (just in case)But its time i go for something i want to do, not what someone else thinks i should do. Ive dreamed about this for a long time...ive pictured myself fighting and winning the championship...I can do this...for once in my life I am 100% serious about something...I'm not giving up this dream...and i know certain people wont give up on me.
That's what it is to be a friend i guess...lol i even have my nickname picked out and everything...
Tom "The Wildfire" Sammis...i'd love to hear that as i walk to the ring...you think i'm being crazy? Just talking and wont do it? To quote a certain someone "Your gunna chase a wild fantasy that you'll never accomplish, even if you tryed a life time. You cant do it, just go to school and get a job!"
You wanna tell me what i can and can't do?
I'll tell you what I Can do...
I can learn the most complicated moves in 10 minutes
I can beat people who have 3 years experience on me
I can be the 3rd person in the 50 year history of our school to get from green to brown in under a month
I can go in every class and impress students, and instructors alike everytime
I can win 1st place in sparring every time ive been in competition.
One more thing i can do...
I can learn who are my real friends...and who just keep me around as scraps'
I'm gunna do this...even if i'm doing it alone...but the best thing is...I wont be.
