I am speech rough draft 1

What has influenced you in your lifetime, a couple things that have influenced me are my family, friends, experiences I've gone through, and of course social media. Hello my name is Jerrett overland. I'm 15 years old from Las Vegas. This is my first year attending Cheshire academy, I'm a sophomore and have enjoyed the school year so far.
 I think social media has changed me the most for a couple reasons, first we're on our phones or social media most of the day so we're always around these things. 
Secondly we as a society think so highly of "famous" people, and try to be like them.
 Sometimes celebrities are great role models and teach you great things, but sometimes they don't. 
When one has a role model, they strive to work harder, be a better person, and live life like him. 
One person who has influenced me through social media would be Steven Stamkos, he;s humble, hard worker, and never stops.
 He wakes up every morning doing the little thing, he has his priorities straight, he puts people before himself, and is humble. I try to wake up and do things he does.

Another thing that influences me a lot would be family and peers. 

People who mean the most to us or become the greatest influences in our lives, we tend to do things that they do and follow there footsteps. 

My hockey coach has taught me many things, I thank him and give him credit for a lot of my success, he has taught me to be humble, be a hard worker, and be yourself. 

A big thing that influences us is our past. Good memories tend to stick with you and never go away. A Good memories is when we lost 6-1 in a championship game, and we got blown out.

 We played the best hockey ever, we never stopped, they were just  a better team. After the game the coach and a couple players came in our Lockeroom and told us how good we played mad that we battled super hard. 

That showed great character, and how humble that team is. They didn't take the game for granted.  The same thing could happened to bad memories. 

Bad memories tend to be forgotten, but good memories stay forever. 

We as people grow and tell those memories and past experiences. 

Stories are usually past experiences good or bad. 

These things have influenced me tremendously in my lifetime.
The things that influence in ones lifetime completely affects there life, it can help, change, kill, and make it a whole new world.
