  • I had to delete my intro music (Paradise, Coldplay) because of some copy right issues. The music starts from 2.28
    0.00-2.26: Camp in Boston and host family
    2.27-5.26: What I've experienced
    5.27-9.55: Football :D
    I had an awesome year in the states, and the time has gone by extremely fast! And I can't believe I'm going home in 2 weeks..
    My football kicking went very good, and a professional kicking camp contacted me and wondered if I was interested to come to one of their camps (showcases) for College Football. I had a blast at the camp, and you can see how it went in the link bellow:

    I would like to thank my amazing host family, for letting me stay at their house and become a part of their family. I can't thank you guys enough, and I love you so much!

    sounds like you were a damn good kicker some non-Americans might not know the game but those are impressive numbers especially at High School level. probably could play at the college level here for sure

      @@charlottep4530 He kicked a 46 yd field goal that was good from 56!!! Having only played one season, I think a school could do something with that. All of those kicks were nice. Nice arc and trajectory... What more could he do?

  • @evanbarnett6034
    @evanbarnett6034 9 років тому +28

    Damn, I'm really impressed with your kicking ability, especially for a high schooler. I'll bet you'er the best kicker in that high school's history. I'll bet you're one of the best high school kickers in the nation. You could probably get a full ride to a good football college. That could be your ticket to get back to america. Just show schools that tape and they'll probably pull some strings for you to get back to the US. And american football kickers are really prized here. Most people aren't very good at it. You could be on national TV kicking for a big football college. And college football is huge here. You could really make it here in a big way if you wanted. Go for it.

      Pablo Maylee it's a big difference. The system is completely different and the teachers teach in a different way. The biggest difference is the amount of home work, but overall It is easier to get good grades in America.

    Så kult! Gleder meg til å reise til USA neste år! Har et spørsmål, eller to faktisk! Hvor gammel var du når du dro? Og navnet ditt, ikke veldig typisk amerikansk, slik som mitt ikke er særlig amerikansk heller! Hvordan løste du det? Fant du et annet navn eller noe som ligner navnet ditt, eller bare sa de det på en litt rar måte? Takk!

Second, do you think i should go in as a junior or senior, which year is better? Final, How can I make friends! what clubs or sports should i join?! I am really excited and nervous! hopefully you can help :)
