The introduction of Dakotah Antonio Diaz

Hello.  My name is Dakotah Antonio Diaz.  I was brought into this world on April 4th, 1996, in the beautiful city of Orlando, Florida.  I've lived in Orlando all of my life, but I have traveled to a few states on the East coast (Maine, Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee), but my goal is to one day road trip to and camp out in the Grand Canyon. 

I have a 13 year old sister, a 10 year old sister, a 6 year old brother, and a 3 year old sister.  So that, in turn, would make me the oldest.  My mother is from some town in Maine and my dad is from a small town in Cuba.  When my dad was 3 years old, he and his family immigrated to New Jersey, where they lived for several years.  Eventually, my dad and his family moved down here to Orlando.  A few years after that, my mom moved down to Orlando as well, and they both met in a karate class at a community college.  That's where I come in.

"The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow."

Fast forward 18 years, I'm now a freshman at the University of Florida, majoring in Business Management.  My goal is to start up and run my own athletic training business for prospective and professional athletes who are aiming to become the best at whatever sport they do.  In order to do this, I also want to get my degree in athletic training, possibly here at UF or back home at UCF.

 I myself am also an athlete.  I ran track for all four years of high school, and ran cross country for three years in high school as well.  Even after graduating I am still training harder than ever before.  My goal is to bring home an Olympic gold medal for the 800 meter and 400 meter race.  I enjoy pushing myself beyond my limits and I also enjoy helping others do this as well.  This is why I want to become an athletic trainer.

Aside from training for track, one of my favorite pass-times is Netflix.  Some of my top shows include: Arrow, Supernatural, American Horror Story, the Office (the U.S. version of course), It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Parks and Recs, Justice League (don't judge), the list goes on for far to long.  I also enjoy dancing/singing in the shower, playing Cards Against Humanity, and owning a Guitar for six years and still not learning how to play.

And that is pretty much everything that I want you to know about me.  Thanks for reading this far, I hope you enjoyed learning a little somethin' somethin' about me.
