OC Baseball


Oxnard college baseball is one of the many reasons why I enjoyed going back to school. Playing baseball for oxnard college has changed me in many ways. I learned a lot from our coaches and I've made new teammates and friends. This is my last year and I'm going to miss playing here.

Change



When I was younger I was a shy guy and I wasn’t very social. I had friends, but they were mostly people I went to elementary school and junior high with. I made a lot of friends playing baseball growing up as well. When I got to high school it was pretty much the same friends. I never really tried to meet new people. It wasn’t because I thought I have friends already so why do I need more. I just didn’t really know how to meet new people. It sounds funny because a simple “Hi” is all it takes. When I would go to parties in high school I would be stuck talking to one of my friends the whole night. I’m not taking anything away from my friend, but at most parties you’re suppose to social or it’s at least good to social. The only time I would ever meet new people is if they came up to me and started a conversation. I was pretty shy, but my people skills weren’t that great. Having the same friends isn’t bad, but we lose friends all the time because of school, jobs, or we just grow apart from each other. So when all your old friends are gone, you’re going to have to meet new people.
            Today I try not to put myself in a shell around people. I try to meet new people everyday because I think its good to talk to people or just get to know someone. I’m not as shy as before, but sometimes my shyness comes out of me. I think having great people skills will help you in life. Life is way too short to know the same people your whole life. I’m not saying let everyone in your life because there is always a chance you might me some creeper. But get out and meet someone new today.

Family

I have two sisters and a half brother. Erica is my younger sister and she is twenty-two. Jamie is my older sister and she is twenty-five. Louie is my older brother and he is thirty. There has been a lot of drama in my family. My parents are divorced and I hardly know any of my relatives from my dad side. When I was growing up we always did everything with my mom’s side of the family. We celebrated birthdays, thanksgiving, Christmas, and new years all with my mom’s side. I love my family and they all mean a lot to me. Now everyone is so busy and doing their own thing it’s hard to see all of them. My younger sister got married this past year and she moved to New Mexico. I call her or text her to see how she’s doing, but I get pretty busy myself. My older sister is busy with her job and her boyfriend. She just recently got an apartment with her boyfriend. I don’t like to call my brother my half brother because I never seen him as a half brother. In reality he is though. He always lived with his dad’s side of the family, so I never really spent time with him except at celebrations of course. Even with my mom’s side of the family I hardly see my grandma or grandpa. It’s hard because of school and I’m always busy most of the time. Sometimes it feels like I don’t have a family because I hardly see any of them. I know that’s not true of course because when we need each other every one of us is there. I wish we could always be close like when we were younger, but that’s just a part of growing up I guess. We have to move on and start new lives and new families. I also wonder what it would have been like if my parents would have stayed together. Would our family be closer than it is now? All the drama that’s happened between my families I see past all of it because I love all my family no matter what. I’m never going to abandon my family because you’re always going to need family in your life.
