It all began on October 28, 1988 in Brooklyn. On this day life was given to me on long side with my name; Jimmy James.


   My childhood was filled with pleasant moments. Four years later I started my education career in Pre-school. I remember those years like it was yesterday, the first time I started finger painting. That art quickly became my favorite activity because I loved having paint in between my fingers. I felt Free and alive. It was the only moment I was able to rub paint all over my fingers without being reprimanded.

  It was during this time that I learned how to ride a tri-cycle, I felt like a big boy on that ride. I remember one day during recess, I got into an accident with one of my class mates and I fell of my glorious ride. I hit the grown with lighting speeds, luckily my I had put out my hands in front of my to soften the impact. I was A.O.KAY. than all of a suddenly my finger nail started to hurt. I quickly glanced at it, only to discover my nail was handing of my finger. It took my a while to process what just had happen. My friends quickly rushed towards me, and I showed them my nail. They were so amazed, they started to shouting how cool it was. Well I didn't think it was that cool. It only took about two weeks for my nail to grow back.

  I passed all my classes during my schooling years and made a lot of friends. This made my time in school very pleasant. I wanted to succeed in everything I did. I started loving playing baseball since it matched with what I set out to do. Everyday after school, I would go to the park and just play baseball with my friends. I also started in-line skating when I was 13 years old. I loved this sport because it gave me a new perspective on life and it posed new challenges. I am a much more outgoing person because to this sport. It was fun and I enjoyed it whenever I executed a trick. I never gave up when I fell; I just got right back up and kept on trying. I went beyond and above, I wanted to be first in everything I did I also strive to reach as far as I could go.

  I went on to become a student in the pro-pilot program at Farmingdale State University. MY love for flying was on outgrowth of skating. I loved the speed. I loved it when I caught air. I hope to travel the world one day and a career as a pilot may give me this opportunity. In addition to my passion for flying and skating I also have a love for nature, I love hiking and I love walking in the middle of no were.
