Community Service

 I have done community service a few times when I was younger. When I went to a summer camp back a few years ago, we went to a retirement home just to hang out with the elderly. I thought it was going to be boring but it turned out to be pretty fun. I never knew how much fun I could have with the elderly. A lot of them were very funny and still acted like they were young. Being there made me think about how eventually I will become an old man and how I would enjoy the company of younger kids. Another time we went to a forest preserve and picked up the trash. I was really surprised of how much garbage people threw out, it made me think twice about littering and at the end of the day it felt really good knowing I picked up all that trash. I will probably do my community service hours helping out with the special Olympics and the homeless.

Who am I..

Hey, my name is Patryk and I turned 17 on Aug 7. I am the only one in my family that was born in America. The rest of my family were born in Poland and came to America in 1993. Instead of spelling my name Patrick I spell it Patryk because its the polish way of spelling it. I played football from 5th to 8th grade and then played lacrosse my freshman year.  I consider myself of being pretty laid back and don't try to take life to seriously. I love to snowboard and wont stop snowboarding unitl the day I die. I wish I could just move out west and snowboard everyday of my life, but sadly that chances of that happening are slim to none.
