Activities:
Since my days usually consist of working full time in the morning and
attending class part time at night, my extracurricular activities have to
stay to a minimum. When I do have free time I love to go to the boxing gym.
I believe boxing helps instill work ethic, discipline, and promotes a
healthy lifestyle.
