Osmar Ramirez Berrones '24 Recruiting Profile

Every day I think about what my future will be like and how to change the present that I have right now. It is true that there are people who live in a worse situation than the one I live in, but I think that we have the decision on whether we want to change the way we live or whether we want to stay as we are.

I live in a small apartment with my mother, my father and my 5-year-old little sister. On school days I wake up at 4:00 a.m. I get ready and have breakfast and then I leave at 4:30 a.m. to cross the international bridge and Wait for the bus to go to school, which I finish at 3:40, then I cross again to Reynosa and take a bus to my house to change, eat something light, and go to soccer practice from 5:30-8:00 pm later I go to a gym that is 5 minutes from the field and I stay there until 9:30 p.m. I get home at 10:00 p.m. I do the homework I have pending, I have something to eat and I go to sleep at approximately 11 p.m.

On the weekends I try to earn a little money by doing small jobs in the neighborhood like mowing the grass or throwing out the garbage. I also go to play soccer in a place where they give me a little more money for playing and then for goals. I invest it to buy ingredients to make tacos and I sell them in the afternoons in my spare time. I use the money I earn to help with household expenses since we have low economic resources.

My purpose is to go to university and graduate in dentistry since I really like the career and I want to do something to help my family financially. I have always thought that we can all overcome anything if we put our minds to it and I want to give My parents and my sister a nice house and buy them a car since I have always said that we have to be grateful to those who have supported you from the beginning and my parents, despite not having much money, always gave me everything, education and food, they never lacked me. and I thank you for teaching me the value of being a good person

I want to get a scholarship at a university playing soccer. I feel that I can and I am going to achieve it and I will work very hard for it
