About Me

Nick-Fox-SVSU 2008

This is who I am:  I am Nick Fox

My name is Nick Fox, and I am 22 years old.  I am from the small the city called, Clio which is located in the state that is surrounded by three of the five Great Lakes known as Michigan.  I was born in South Korea on October 26th, 1986, and in February 21st, 1987 I was adopted by two wonderful parents who lived in Clio.   

 


My education background is different than others.  I was home schooled for most of my life until my junior year of high school.  I attended the Clio High School for my final two years of high school.  I also attended the Genesse Area Skill Center learning how to build web pages.  After I graduated in 2005, I continue my education at Mott Community College located in Flint, Michigan, and graduated from the community college in the spring of 2008.  I am currently attending SVSU right now where I am working on my major to become a Phys. Ed. Teacher.


After high school, I got a job working at VG's Food and Pharamacy for two years.  I started out as a service clerk (Bag boy), and got promoted to the cashier position.  Six months later I accepted the job in the bakery department and made donuts for four months.  With school being a conflict with my work, I left VG's in August of 2007 to focus on my schooling.  After school and being graduated, I searched for a new job, and in the spring of 2008 I got hired to work at the golf course in Montrose, Michigan.


Since I am going into the field of education, I am trying to make sure my resume is looking good by doing things that involve working with the youth.   I am a counselor for a Korean camp that is held in Flushing, Michigan every summer during the last week of June.  The camp is call Korean Culture Camp of Eastern Michigan.  The camp has been going on for the past 19 years and I have been attend that camp for 19 years.  I started as a camper and now I am a counselor of the camp.  It get to teach the younger Korean adoptees about Korea and its culture, etc.  I have been a counselor for the past 5 years.  I also involved with my church by helping with the children.  For two years I was a VBS (Vacation Bible School) leader.  I was a religious ed aide for 3  years, and I am involved with the Children's literature.  With the children's literature, I get to read the readings from the Bible that are  being read for that Sunday, and after reading to the children, I will describe what was read in the Bible in words that they can understand.  I was also an assistant youth football coach for Clio for two years as well.  


My hobbies are sports, hunting, playing video games, listening to music, helping kids, and much more. 

    In sports, I love football and golf, but I do enjoy playing basketball, and other sports as well.  But football and golf are my favorite two.  I did play high school football and track for Clio during my junior and senior year.  I played the position as a lineman for football, and the thrower for track, but in track   I  occasionally ran on sprints like the 400 m dash, and 200 m dash.  
My favorite football player of all time was the Detroit Lions' greatest running back. Barry Sanders, and for golf...well you should know the greatest golfer, Tiger Woods. 
    I enjoy playing video games like EA games: Madden, NBA, Tiger Woods, and any other sports games.  I am not much of the fighting action games.

   I enjoy listening to Christian radio stations like K-Love, Smile FM, and Family Life Radio.  I also like to listen to movie soundtracks like Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, and sport themes.


   I enjoy watching  sports on TV like the Lions, Pistons, Spartans, Wolverines, Tigers, and any other Michigan teams.  My favorite out of the state sport team I like to watch are the NE. Patroits, and Green Bay.  I do like shows like CSI: Miami, Extreme House Makeover, and other mystery shows. 


In high school, I have recieved a varsity letter for football and track, and a sportsmanship award for golf.


I want to become a teach  because I love working with the youth.  I have the patience to deal with kids, and I like helping each of them prepare for their future.  Kids are precious human beings   that God have created, and working with God's little children is a way for me to serve and work for God.   I love to give children dreams and goals to achieve so they can be successful in life.  I want to share my talents with them and to see their shining smiles

Who's On First
By Abbott and Costello

Abbott: Well Costello, I'm going to New York with you. You know Bucky Harris, the Yankee's manager, gave me a job as coach for as long as you're on the team.

Costello: Look Abbott, if you're the coach, you must know all the players.

Abbott: I certainly do.

Costello: Well you know I've never met the guys. So you'll have to tell me their names, and then I'll know who's playing on the team.

Abbott: Oh, I'll tell you their names, but you know it seems to me they give these ball players now-a-days very peculiar names.

Costello: You mean funny names?

Abbott: Strange names, pet names...like Dizzy Dean...

Costello: His brother Daffy.

Abbott: Daffy Dean...

Costello: And their French cousin.

Abbott: French?
