This Is Who I Am


I am just an average man with a big plan

Doing what I can to be a smarter man

Working like a mule while others play in their pool

 I am third in line and that’s just fine

Family comes foremost I love them utmost

I am always volunteering which is disappearing

Making sure to be honest it keeps me modest

 I am in high gear with good cheer

Transferring next year to be an engineer

Paul Rod

I am currently enrolled at Sauk Valley Community college and am going to transfer to UW Platteville to major in Electrical engineering. I graduated class of 2013 fifth in my class. I live out in the country on a farm and don't mind work. I currently have a small lawn care business during the summer and dedicate all my time the rest of the year to my studies, working on the farm, and community service.
