  • If I could spend a day with a famous person from any time period it would be: "I would spend it with Pele, because he was born poor and went from rags to riches with his amazing soccer and foot skills. He became known all around the world for his talents and he has an impact on my soccer and outside life as well as many other kids around the world."
  • If I could participate in a reality show it would be: "Jersey Shore because they make money for just having fun and enjoying life."
