A lot of NFL players like to give back to the community. Im not quite sure how Miami Beach got involved other than maybe his agents live here in miami beach and they just called me up and to administer the clinic? (i cant heat what he said in the last part…. it was a very loud classroom i think he might have said mcclinic or soemthing to do with the name of the program

We organized the activities and the drills and the skills. he s[hockey] played for the university of miami now he plays for New Orleans saints under his name he was the open who created the camp for the youth

I think its great for someone who is as famous as he is to take time out of his schedule to give back to the youth with a message to work hard and staying focused and keeping things in perspective to achieve their goals.

i wish of the kids who graduated from Miami beach would do this.

How can u describe his character?
Hes a great guy, intimidating because hes so big

Dear Harry

Dear Harry,

 

I want to be a doctor, but my English is not that good because I have been here for only two years. What should I do?

Sincerely, Aisha Akter

 

Dear Ms. Akter,

First of all I can imagine that moving from another country, learning a new language meeting new people and fitting in to the new customs has not been the easiest transition in your life. Persevere, maybe your English is not perfect but I assure you it will improve. I recommend you practice your English by reading different genres of books, writing and talking to other English speaking people. The road to becoming a doctor is long, but once you grasp that degree and you undergo the sense of satisfaction you will see that the obstacle of speaking English was only a small pebble you learned to overcome.

 

Hope this helped, Harry

 

Dear Harry,

How can I take away my fear of heights? Should I bungee jump or ride roller coasters?

Sincerely, fearful

 

Dear fearful,

Fear can be defined as that unpleasant feeling of anxiety. I am sure you hear this advice from everyone: Face your fears. Keep in mind that fear paralyzes us and I recommend you beak down your fear of heights. From personal experience I can say that riding roller coasters or bungee jumping is one of the most exhilarating, adrenaline filled moments you can ever experience. Approach this method by first observing the ride, then ask yourself what is the worst that can happen? If it is a ride you are about to go remember it is just a ride and you are safe. Then take a leap of faith and go for it. Maybe start by looking down from a tall building which will later lead to rock climbing.

P.S. Do the things that scare you.

 

Sincerely, Your friend Harry

 

Dear Harry,

I can’t decide if I should go to new world next year to sing, or if I should stay here. I can either go and pursue my music career or stay here at Beach High and see what happens.

Sincerely, Singer

 

Dear Singer, I can not decide for you to either stay here at Beach High or go to New World next year. However, I can help you figure out the pros and cons. Ask yourself on a sincerity level how talented, how determined, how much time and support do you have to become a professional singer. Before you make your decision, sit down with your guardians and ask them to help you go through this process. In they end they will have your best interest at heart. With whichever choice you make, make sure you have a plan “B”.

final copy of UM

Joselyn Garcia On March ten 2003 at the age of eleven I discovered I am not invincible. Going to what seemed like a regular dental checkup left me feeling vulnerable and frightened. in a shaking tone i recall the dentist say I’m sorry to inform you but your body has developed a benign tumor on the left side of your jaw and if we do not operate quickly there is a high possibility the tumor can developed into cancer. At the time my family was neither financially or emotionally stable for the unbearable news. However, through the preparation for the operation and during the recovery period i developed a great sense of appreciation for life and the experience inspired me to become a dentist. Because the day of tomorrow is not promised I learned to cease every opportunity that comes my way. Tens of thousands of thoughts such as failure death and weakness clouded my head on a daily basis. I kept asking god why me, why do i have to go through this operation? After agonizing medication injections and prayer I realized we can not escape or control the problems we face. Except we can control our attitude and the decisions we make. Instead of feeling pity for myself or being angry at the world I decided to go through the procedure with a positive attitude and call myself a survivor. My passion for dentistry grew as large as a redwood forest. The dentist who discovered my tumor and operated on me practically saved my life. Once I become a prestigious dentist, I would love to travel to third world countries and help those less fortunate. The University of Miami is my top choice because the University has a respectable pre-dentistry program that well equips eager students to become amazing dentists. T.S Elliot once said that those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

HiTIDE HARRY QUESTIONs

Q: Dear Harry,

Sometimes I feel like I dont belong. I have a couple great friends, get decent grades, good family, you know live a reglar life but sometimes when im in large groups I cant seem to be myself. I have a few friends, and can not call myself Popular.. Some call me shy, but what can I do to feel like I belong when I am not surrounded by my best friends?
Sincerely, Nomal Me

A: Dear Normal Me,

I undesrtand that sometiems big crowds do not give us the opprtunity to show our true colors and can make us feel intemidated. However, from what you told me, I do understand that you do have good friends that care about you. remeber just because someone may have a million “friends” that person may not have someone by their side when turbulation arises. Be grateful for the few frieds that will catch you when you fall. On another note, if you want to socialize more, just show everyone your true personality. Speak up a little more, and hey what is the worst that can happen? They might walk away. On the bright side you might meet new pople that will introduce you to new ideas ad new customs. Sometimes we have to throw ourself out there to see what the wold has to offer.
Bst of Luck, HiTide Harry

Q: In a span of two years my boyfriend has cheated on me several times. Except now, he says he really wants me back and is extremely sorry for what he did. He says he cant live without me. I miss him but he has hurt me too much. I do not have the strength to forgive him becasue he was the one that took my virginity. What should I do?
Sincerely, Heart Broken

A: Dear Heart Broken,
I am sorry to hear what you had to go through. I want to commend you on your bravery for breaking up with him. There is a saying that says “you dont know what you have until its gone.” Obviously, this person did not realize how much you are worth until the day he lost you. As a lady, you have to demad the love and respect you deserve. Forgiveness is not a emotion but a decision one takes. When you forgive someone, you choose to excuse the persons fault. On the other hand, this does not mean you let the person take advantage of you. Because you were sexually involved with him, and he has cheated on you several times I advise you to go to a clinic and make sure you do not have an STD. If you choose to not get back with him, you should get rid of the things that remind you of him, and cut him our of your life. The cheater is not feeling a sense of repentance but remorse.  You are young, ad believe me there are plenty of fish in the sea. If the break up is too much for you to handle, you should also seek professional help from a trust counselor or psychologist.
Good Luck, Hitide Harry

Miguel Castillo Final Draft

Two year, Miami Beach District Champion, senior Miguel Castillo, has proven himself fit for the intense sport of wrestling.  Castillo says, “Well it was a rewarding feeling, because I worked hard for it. In a sport like wrestling you have to work really hard. I had to do a lot of practice and drilling; dedication.”

Castillo also placed 7^th in Regional’s and was one match away from Nationals. Given the fact that the 09 season is Castillo’s last season, he has brought Miami Beach Senior High much pride. Assistant coach Robby adds, “Besides Miguel’s dedication, I have seen that he is a quick learner. You can show Miguel one move and the next day he is hitting the move. He has definitely improves in his cardio and now he is nonstop at the match.”

The atmosphere of fighting getting to beat someone up, and not getting in trouble for it attracted me to wrestling. I like the discipline I like getting to beat people up. Colleges in Ohio, Marietta, in Colorado have offered Castillo a scholarship. However, “I don’t think that’s something I want to pursue, said Castillo, well right now I’m looking at different schools for business. But there is also the possibility of me joining the fire department.”

Castillo has participated in the sport of wrestling since his junior year and has also participated in the football team. According to Castillo, “Last year I started from scratch not knowing anything pretty much and this year I had better basics therefore I was able to improve on more complex, Intricate moves and out how beat my opponents.”

Preparing for both the matches and tournaments in February, Castillo had to improve his Cardio and personal training. “We did a lot of running, jump rope, drilling, meaning going over the moves again and again. Climbing stairs, wheel barrows, walking on your hands doing that up the stairs doing that down the stairs, buddy carries having someone jump on your back and going with them up the stairs on your back.”

In doing so Castillo, practiced from 2:00- 6:00 p.m. including winter break. Castillo also rode his bicycle after school to his house which is about a distance of 8 miles.  

Castillo wants s to show attribution to both of his coaches Juan Camarotti and Coach Eric Rodriguez. “I owe a lot of gratitude and thanks for getting me so far.”
