Observing

During the four day weekend that we had, I was able to go down to my grandma's house and visit the immense lake behind her house. I figured that this lake would be a terrific place to observe people and nature. It was a calm day out and the water of the lake was not moving very much, there were tons of ducks and other species of birds flying all around me. Also in the water there were a few fish that jumped up, I didn't get a great view of them but I believe they were bass. My eyes slowly drifted from the water and I noticed that there is a pathway around the lake where people can walk their dogs. there were about three couples walking with their dogs, and 4 or 5 people that were roller skating along the vast lake.
Since i had just examined the lake at a broad perspective, it was now time for me to carefully look at one area of the lake. I looked down towards the far corner of the lake and studied it. At the corner were three mallard ducks from where I was these creatures looked to be a red and grayish color. One of the ducks kept on diving under water and would stay under for what felt like an eternity until shooting back up into a completely different area. The other two ducks were at the shore bank digging their heads into the moist ground, it had just finished raining so I imagine that the 2 ducks were digging for their appetizing meal for fresh worms. The ducks carried on this process for a while so I decided to head inside

Hi my name is Eddy Obrenski, I am 18 years old. I was born on January 15, 1992 in Naples Florida. I was the second child born in my family and have an older sister named Kayla. My sister and I have always been clase to one another and she has been a big part of my life. I lived in Naples for a short period of time and then my family moved down to Marco Island. During the 12 years I lived on Marco my parents ended up getting a divorce, so I moved with my father to North Naples. When I moved to North Naples I attended Gulf Coast High School which is the biggest school in Naples. Ever since i was young i played baseball and when I got to high school I continued to play. I was able to work hard enough to become a three year varsity letterman, and I also started all 3 of those years. Also during my baseball career my high school team was able to set a few school records together, we were the first team in school history to make it to a regional final. At the end of high school i was hoping to get a few scholarships to play baseball, but the only schools that offered me did not capture my interest. So i decided to attend FGCU. I am currently contemplating on whether or not i should give it a shot and try to walk on to the baseball team at FGCU, since baseball has always been such a big part of my life i don't know what I would do without it.
