My name is Brandon Aoki. I
was born in Oxnard April 4, 1996 but moved to Camarillo when I was about 4
years old. I have a younger sister which makes me the oldest
sibling. Just about all of my memories involve some type of sport. I've
played soccer and baseball since I was 8 and basketball since I was
10. When I was 12, my baseball team traveled to Cooperstown, New York to
play in a tournament that is home to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
That was one of the greatest experiences of my life, even though we
didn't win the tournament. I attended Adolfo Camarillo High School where
I played soccer freshman and sophomore year and baseball for all 4 years.
I ended up meeting my best friends through these sports and so it was fitting
that we graduated together this past year.
I'm a full time student at Oxnard
College and it feels awkward calling myself a college student. Right now
my major is business administration. I am currently playing for the
baseball team at Oxnard College. Since I only go to school Monday through
Thursday I have a lot more spare time then when I was in high school. My
time is spent with Netflix, the beach, fishing, or just hanging out with my
friends. I don't have a job at the moment but I will need to get one soon
because driving from Camarillo to Oxnard 2 times a day for school and practice
adds up.
My plan is to transfer from Oxnard
to a four year university where I can get a degree and look for a career.
Eventually, a family will be in the picture with a wife, kids, and a few
pets. I hope to still be living in California, or at least any place
that's along the coast because I love the beach. The future is still
unknown to me but I can't wait to see what it has in store.
Thanks for your post and welcome to the class!
ReplyDeleteI was also majoring in business as well my first semester at Oxnard College. I decided it wasn't for me and changed it by the second semester.
ReplyDeleteI also appreciate the more free time that college has offered me. I would love to spend all of it watching Netflix, but I cannot, due to homework.
ReplyDeleteI feel awkward calling myself a college student too! I hope you fulfill your future plans, they sound great.
ReplyDeleteYou'll get used to calling yourself a college student! Don't worry. seems like you had a really good time playing sports. a lot of people don't get the opportunity to travel...especially at a young age. Enjoy the spare time that you have, it gets a little tricky when you balance work and school. hope all your plans work out!
ReplyDeleteI love baseball! I played softball for 13 years till I had my son. Keep playing even it is just for fun. Don't rush things though and enjoy your spare time right now. I hope to see you play since my son and I will be attending a few baseball games when season starts. Don't give up.
