Who is your hero and why?- My older brother, Jacob Carney, is my hero. Jacob is my hero because he was always there to help me when I needed help. When we had to put down one of my favorite dogs, Zeek, Jacob was there to comfort me and make me feel better. When we were working on batting and pitching, for softball, he wouldn't let me give up, no matter how discouraged I got. He would always hang out with me and we would go work on softball or throw a football around. He's currently at Otterbein University, in Westerville Ohio, for college. He plays football for the Otterbein Cardinals; Even though we fight a lot, he is still my hero.

Paragraph Three- Some long-term goals are graduate high school, get a job, and go to college. I want to be a veterinarian when I grow up. I would like to go to a nice college and graduate college. Then I will keep doing classes so I can upgrade my degree. I want to be a vet because I love animals and I grew up around them.
