Getting to know me

     My name is Jason Cottongame, my first name is also my father's although I am not a junior because I have a different middle name. My middle name is unique, I've only met one other person that has had this name. It's very interesting because like me he received his first name from his father who also happened to be Jason, and his middle came came from a Steve McQueen movie called "Junior Bonner".
     The two pictures to the right of the screen are a pictures of my friends and me. The upper picture is during my first spring break in college at South Padre and the lower picture is from a music festival called Larry Joe Taylor. These pictures are big indications of me because i love the beach for vacationing as well as going to the biggest music festival for Texas Country, my favorite type of music.
     I have one sibling (an older sister), who is a math teacher at Mineral Wells, and my mom and dad. my mother is a secretary for my dads business which is a building inspecting company. Construction runs in the family, My grandpa (father's dad) has a home building company that mainly does business out of Fort Worth. This is where i obtained my major of wanting to be a civil engineer.
     We're from a small town of around 9,000 called Graham, Texas. It is 60 miles South of Wichita falls and it has the largest downtown square in America. We live on a lake about 15 miles south of Graham called Possum Kingdom Lake. The lake is great for Striper fishing and almost turns into a town of it's own during the summer because of all the people that vacation there.
     I currently play football at Hardin-Simmons University, I've Transferred two times. Once from Oklahoma State University to Tarleton State University, and now to Hardin-Simmons University. I guess you could assume i have a tough time making my mind up about things but I like to think that I'm methodical in my decision making.
      I like to compare myself to myself and myself only. With this mindset I'm able to assess where i am and where I was. I aspire to be a better person daily and feel the only way to do that is to compare your present self with yourself from the past.
