Other things about me
One thing im actually pretty good at, is presenting things and getting everybodies attention on the subject im presenting. It is just one of those things I can do and I really like doing that and It just makes me proud, because I know this would be a great idea, if im pitching ideas to people for movies, I feel like they will be interested in my ideas and enjoy hearing my ideas as other in my school do when im presenting a project. I remember not starting off to well with presenting. I used to be shy and it made it tough for me to speak in front of the class, but I learned in 8th grade how to do that and then it just got easier as I was getting older and going through high school, and it definatly helped with my senior project, and im glad to say that and get that project done and over with knowing that I passed and succeeded. Im really glad to have this skill because I feel and know that this will help me in the future and I really hope it takes me somewhere I always dream of going to in my life.
Watching the NFL
Well when it comes to me and football I usually watch then play, I like to watch pro football instead of college, im not sure why I think once I go to college I will start watching we will just have to wait and see, but I do have favorite teams in the NFL, I love to watch Carolina Panther because I live in North Carolina and I think we should support are team, and I also like the Eagles, they had a tough season this year and I hope next year will be different, for both teams the panthers are not bad at the end of the season they are terrible at the start and it just takes awhile for them to adjust to everything and I can understand that I just hope they can learn how to adjust earlier so that way we can make it to the Playoffs and who knows possibly the SuperBowl. Same goes for the Eagles they are a good team and it may take a bit for them to redue the team after this bad season, but I think I can be patient and hope that they can have a good season again. My least favorite team in the NFL is probably the Cowboys, I think they are over exaggerated a bit, I think it is also my dad hates them and that just makes me hate them , but all well at least they didn't make the Playoffs.
What inspires me
I have always been inspired by my family. They have all ways been there for me and I can't ever thank them enough. Im was also inspired to work in film because of Steven Spielberg. Why? He is not only one of the greatest filmmakers, he has also inspired all the great directors today, which is very impressive from my standards. He started off in a normal childhood, but he moved a lot when he was a kid and it made it difficult for him to have a great childhood. His parents also got a divorce and that is something hard to deal with, im not sure how I would handle it, but he took it alright and he moved to California with his dad. He shot some good films when he was a kid as well, he made movies for his hometown and did film festivals which is pretty interesting. He made the first big blockbuster and that is what got a lot more people into film and I can see why. It is just so interesting that your ideas can come to life just by writing them down and filming it with a camera. That is why Steven Spielberg inspires me.

Working at Lowes Foods
It is my first job andnot a shock to all but I do not care for it one bit, it is annoying because this is how you realize the real world, trust me no one is as kind as you think they are, really people find the littlest things to complain about, and expect you to get fired from that mistake, when really its just a mistake and you are suppose to fix that mistake after that, which makes sense to me anyways. I always thought everyone was a good person, but working at Lowes made me realize that people are not who they think we are. I must say though without this, I would of never realize the real world and I find this a great experiance for me to learn. I also like my coworkers and for the most part I think they like me too, which is good I always enjoy talking about other customers that really ruined my day with other workers it's just a lot of fun and can really make the job a lot more fun. Working at Lowes teaches me responsibility and I enjoy learning from this and I hope I want have to work there in the future, that would just kill me. All in all im glad I got a job.
Things about me
Well first off im 6ft 3, I always am a great and nice guy. I take things serious when they need to be and don't when it is not so serious. I'm in the band, not to happy to say that, I can have a good time there sometimes though, like when it comes to the concerts, I love to dress up and look nice in a tie, it just make me who I am. I also like to workout im not bragging or anything like that it's just who I am and it's just good fun especially with friends when you try to out lift them just makes it more fun, and that is what working out is about having fun and working out until you gain some pain, because no pain no gain, that is what it is all about. I really like to watch movies, my favorite genre would have to be adventure, mostly because it is exciting and I like to do exciting things, just makes life more fun and enjoyable. I like to try my best on everything I do except for my online class, I like it and all it just makes it hard for to actually get into the class, but im not doing to bad in it which is good. I am a very positive person and I like to support people as they try to do move on from something or try something new, that is what im mostly about, but im also outgoing and try my best to reach to others and they have for me.

Things I wouldn't Like to do
I may have said things that a lot of people dream of doing, and it's awesome, but there is a couple of things I would probably never do. One of those things is cave exploring. I just would not enjoy that, I am somewhat claustrophobic so that would not make me feel good. I might explore caves that have already been explored, and most are. It just seems so risky for me, and I wouldn't take that chance to be honest. Another thing I wouldn't like to do is probably scuba diving, mostly because I am not and open water person being out in the ocean just seems like a nightmare, I could snorkle because that is fun and safe, but I know I wouldn't scuba dive anytime soon. It is mostly because I don't know what I could run into in the water and that makes me feel uncomfortable to be honest. In the end those are the main things I would just not do, for the sake of not exploring the unexplored. That is just who I am.
Things I would like to do
There are so many things that I would like to do in the future. I have always wanted to travel the world and explore places or ruins, I would just find that so amazing. I would also like to fly in a wingsuit, they are funny looking outfits, but it just looks like so much fun and it seems like it would get your adrenaline pumping and I always loved to get it pumping. I also always thought about mountain climbing, because I feel likethat is a great way to explore the world and it's also a great way to stay in shape. Now thoses are the main one's I would like to do. It just seems like there are so many things to do in life anf that I just wouldn't want to miss out on all of these things, I might not get the chance to do them, but at least I can dream about it, and who knows maybe one day they could come true and happen.


Future life of Spencer
In the future, what I would like to do is become a big part in movies. why? I have always loved watching movies when I was young, I had a ton of fun, they just amazed me. I always had that dream of everyone enjoying my films, and showing that im a great filmmaker. Im not sure what I would like to in film, but I feel like I could do a lot for it, and it is my dream to amaze people with my ideas when I bring them up at meetings and on the big screen. That is what I hope is my future.

My Family, pets, and I
I have always loved being in the family when I was young. I was always supportive to everyone around me, and I always cherished those in my family who I argue with. To start off I would like to mention my mom Caroline and my dad Steve Sigmon, without them I would feel like nothing they make me try my best and I can't imagine life without them, it would just leave me in pain. I have always looked up to my parents the have shown me great responsibility and I always try to be a good son like most do, but sometimes I do disappoint them and I feel like a horrible person, but I always tend to make things better after a few hours to a day. I think with them as my parents I can do no wrong because I know they are watching out for me and I thank them for that.
I also have some siblings in the family, I have my older sister Allison, my older brother Stephen, and my younger sister Summer. We like most siblings tend to get into arguements but after a little time to rest we forgive one another and move on. I try my best not to let my anger get out of hand I think out of everyone in the family I have the most anger and I got it off my dad, it just runs in the family but I try my best not to let my anger get the best of me for it just not end well with me and my siblings. My brother Stephen and I get along well together we have those competitive moments but we still can have good times together and its all nice and cool. My sisters and I can have are disagreements but we still can get along me and my older sister Allison like to workout together which is fun and I can coach her on things she's not good at, so i get along well with her a lot. My younger sister Summer, she is the one I get in the most agruments with, I think it's just because we are the youngest and that would make sense in my opinion, but we can get along well, I let her drive home from school a lot just to show that i'm a good brother and I also go to her dance shows as well. I have a great bond with them all, and i'm glad that they are my siblings because like my parents I not sure what life would be like without them.
When I was young we had a dog named Tony I can't remember what kind of dog she was but she was a lovable dog. She really was me and my brothers and sisters like to go outside and play with her and she made growing up in the house fun. Sadly she passed away in 2005 on my moms birthday it was a sad day we all still miss Tony till this day. I also remember my pet hamster Rex he lived twice his life spand and I was happy about that, I just loved getting new cages for him to play around in, he was just a funny hamster and he did the craziest of things, he passed away a little before my dog Tony so it was not a good year for our family with pets. A little down the road about 2 years after tony dying we went to a shelter and got a dog named Sally, she is still alive just really chubby, she is a part Lab, part Jack russel, so she is a wild one but yet she makes home a better place to visit when coming back from school. I loved all my pets and though it is hard to let them all go, I will still remember them and love them forever.

Me and the Cops
I remember when I first started driving it was at a texting while driving golf cart thing at school. It was not a good start for me, I will say that much. Mostly because I was driving for the first time and a local cop was there in the golf cart with me to make it fun and try to mess me up on my driving. Little did he know it almost caused our lives and that we almost died, I might be over exagerating but it was bad, he was shaken up by the end of it all and I could tell why. I destroyed almost the whole track and almost hit his car which would of been bad but I think he is doing ok right now, at least I hope so.

Another good time with a cop and this is a good one. I just got my drivers license and on the second day I decided to go to Krispy Kreme to celebrate. Now I was a bit overweight at the time not as bad as I used to be, but I was ready to eat the doughnuts so badly, that I decided to speed home and then a few seconds later I hear a cops siren come on and I freaked out and pulled over, I was freaking out it was my second day with my licenses and it was about to probably get taken away and meanwhile the doughnuts are still there hot and ready to eat and the cop was taking forever and I just grab the box and was getting ready to eat one, but then the cop comes to the window and asks me why he pulled me over? and I looked down and then looked back up at him and went cause you can smell it as I lifted up the box of doughnuts, The cop actually started laughing and he actually let me go. He was the best cop I ever met and I even let him have a doughnut cause he was so awesome.

Now this cop I don't care for a lot. I was at Myrtle Beach over the summer, and I got one of those green laser pointers at a store, so I was walking along the beach with some friends just messing around with it, and I did have a few laser battle's with other losers with them as well, but I see a car driving on the beach and I didn't think much of it until he pulls oer were we are at and was like son come over here so I walk over to him and says are you from aroud hear and I was like no and he asked for my licenses, and after 20 minutes of waiting he gives me a ticket and says that the lasers are not aloud on the beach and meanwhile there are like 10 other with the same lasers around the beach and im just looking at them until he gave me a ticket of $263.00 dollars, I was so angry and I knew I just got a very unfair end of the deal hear, but I paid off the ticket and that is that. Wasn't the best day ever thats for sure, but I think I will move on from it. It's not like it's going to haunt me forever or anything like that.

The High life
High School is something that gets us ready for the future, did it prepare me no but it doesn't mean I didn't have any fun. My freshmen year I started out a bit shy but I worked my way out of tht area and just tried to be more outgoing, it was the first year I did a school sport which was track the only sport you don't have to try out for so I was happy that I made the team, I did shot put i wasn't that bad at it and I not going to lie it was good for a freshmen and for a begginer. I also got more involed with my martial arts class trying to get a black belt which I thought was impossible to get. I also made new friends and really enjoyed my freshmen year.
My Sophmore year, was an ok year it was the year I started hanging out with some friends more often and was working on doing good in my classes. Now this was the last year I had bad grades which is good for me I always hated bad grades and as soon as my sophmore year was over, I never had a bad grade again.I think what helped with that was the fact that I went to Sylvan learning center and that was a great experience for me really learned a lot there and I will never forget that, it was bad at firstbecause I was the only one there who was pass 6 feet other than the teachers, while the others were like 5 feet or shorter, which made it a bit odd for me but I ignored that and continued to try my best, and I feel like I succeeded, and i can't ever thank them enough for what they have done for me. Another cool thing that happen my sophmore year was going to New York on a band trip which was fun, I went up to the Empire state building which was amazing and I was brave looking down the building, but I didn't throw anything down or something bad would happen and that would have ruined the trip. All in all I did enjoy my sophmore year as well.
My Jr. year, was the year I got motivated for my my black belt, I was ready to get it and I would have done anything to get it. The first thing that came to mind was my Research Paper which i made a 100 on, and I decided to do mine on martial arts and the safties of it which was exiciting because I could dig deep into the world of karate and learn what could help. One of the things I decided to do was to drop 25 pounds which was actually easier then I thought it was going to be, I just ate right and ran a lot, and before I knew it I was taller and was looking good, and the even nicer thing was losing my braces and having a nice smile and enjoy taking school pictures. My Jr. year was probably the first year i had a good picture for the yearbooks and I couldn't have been happier. It was a good year but it wasn't the best year after are band teacher Mr. Ingold died it was a tragic event for all the students including myself and I felt bad for his family I knew him and he was a good friend of mine but I couldn't imagine of how they felt, it was the let down of the year for me and I really wish that never happen, but I learned and I hoped others learned that it's life things happen even if you don't want it to, you just got to learn how to deal with it and hope for the best. My Jr. year was the year I liked because I learned a new language and made a lot of other achievements, but it was also the year I hated as well.
Now I would write about my senior year but im just halfway through it and would want to wait for the rest of this year to come and go before I start writting about it, but I leave details of it so far. I love this year so far moving quick and I'm doing good as well and I hope that everyone else is enjoying theirs as well. I first off passed my senior project so no more worries about that I am done with that and can sort of rest knowing I did a good job, I also got my black belt this year which is a great accomplishment and couldn't have it anyother way. I think the only problem this year is band it has a little to do with Mr. Ingold not being there, but some of the people there make me uncomfortable, but I want go into detail there, but I think all in all this is my favorite year so far.

The Middle life
When I was in middle school, I went to West Alexander. I like to remember that I never did care for middle school. That was when I was shy and not really the most social person, and that made it hard for me to have fun. I remember that it was not that bad 6th grade year, 7th grade I think was my least favorite year, and then 8th grade which was my favorite year of middle school.
When I started 6th grade I had no idea what was going to happen, like was I going to have the same friends or was I going to have new ones, I think that was the year I had my old friends and new friends, which wasn't to bad and I had fun, and I loved going on trips because it was nice to hang out with them and that was what made 6th grade for me. Then I had some problems with my school work I really had a problem with procrastinating, I really had a hard time doing my work and my grades were sliping and I really had no idea what I was doing. It just didn't make no sense to me and I really just wanted to do good and have a great year but I only made an A in one class and that was Social Studies, the others not so much I might of had one B but it was rare in those classes. I had to start taking tutoring to try to see what I can do about this and it helped and I got the idea of how to treat homework and I started enjoying 6th grade again. That was basically my 6th grade.
When it comes to 7th grade, I always tend to think of that as the worst year. one of the problems was that most of my friends were on the other team and that made it hard for me to hang out with them and I did have friends on the team I was on I just didn't feel like I was really their friend and that was hard to deal with. I didn't have a hard time dealing with my grades, I was more active on that and the teachers liked me for that. The one thing that made year hard was getting along with others. I think that was the hardest year for me on that, I was an active student but I also got in a lot of trouble as well. I think the worst was when it was my birthday this kid was giving me a hard time and I grab his head and slamed it against the bus, he started crying and he wanted to fight me and I told him I didn't want to get suspended and he didn't care he started throwing punches and after he was done I went off on him throwing heavy punches that he could not handle he ran off crying again and I thought that trouble was over, but about 2 hours later while sitting in my fourth block thinking no worries, my teacher gets a call and says for me to go to the office and while going down there I see the kid laughing at me and saying I going to get suspended, I just ignored him and I told the principle my story and I got suspended on my birthday and not only was that the worst year it was also the worst birthday ever, getting suspended is not a gift right just saying. After that I got saturday school detention which was terrible but I moved on from that. The one thing that I think made that year good was passing the EOGs for the first time, which was nice.
Now for 8th grade, Not a lot happen which was a good thing for me, that was the year I learned I had a good speaking voice as well, which comesin handy sometimes. I would to thank my 8th grade english teacher for that because she really helped me with that and I am glad she did. It really helped with overcoming my shyness, and that is what makes me who I am today, a loud and outgoing person and that is who I want to be and that is what made 8th grade my favorite year because I would have probably never figured that out if wasn't for that grade, at least I think so anyways.
When I started 6th grade I had no idea what was going to happen, like was I going to have the same friends or was I going to have new ones, I think that was the year I had my old friends and new friends, which wasn't to bad and I had fun, and I loved going on trips because it was nice to hang out with them and that was what made 6th grade for me.
