My name is Ernest Arambulo but my family and neighbors call me by my middle name, which is Chris. I was born in Guayaquil, Ecuador and came to the United States when I was 3 months old. I didn’t learn English until I was in 5th Grade and it wasn’t until 8th grade my “jevy” accent disappeared. I used to love to play soccer but after getting injured I was forced to stop playing. Eventually I started to play another sport which was a lot different from soccer in almost every way possible. This sport was basket ball; I was amazed how ordinary men were able to jump so high as almost as if they were flying. I was hooked on basketball the moment I saw an alley oop play and that is when I traded in my cleats for a pair of Nike. I practiced and practiced until I became the best in the park and eventually started to dunk on my own, however my body was not able to withstand the continuous impact that pounded my knees. Eventually during a championship game I dunked and as soon as I landed I heard a “snap”. I had torn my ACL and had to undergo surgery. I have not picked up a ball since.
I am currently attending LaGuardia College to attain my Associate’s degree in fine arts. At the current time I am not sure what I plan to do after LaGuardia, I have too many interests in many things. My dream would be to fully recover from surgery and eventually go into a division one basketball school and eventually the NBA (I can dream right?). If I am unable to pursue my then my backup plan would be to travel the world or pursue a Bachelors’ degree in criminal justice and move down to Miami.
In my opinion Taco Bell is the best fast food ever with Kentucky Fried Chicken a close second. My favorite food from Taco Bell is a cheesy gordita crunch with a crunch wrap and a baha blast (I am getting incredibly hungry now). I like the Snackers from KFC because they are only a dollar and I can eat a lot of them.
In my absence from sports I have taken up other hobbies such as guitar and paintball. I enjoy going to paintball arenas and just shooting my friends all day. The best part of paintball is that it leaves you really nice bruises. So all my friends have to do is look at the bruises that appeared after I shot them. I own a Spyder ACS (Anti Chop System) which is a really good gun for the price that you’re paying at one hundred dollars. I also like to drive around ever since I got my license I tend to race people sometimes in the streets but after a car accident in February 2007 durin a snowstorm. I did not end up hurt but I destroyed my beloved car. It was so damaged it would cost me more to fix it then what I paid for it. So I am currently saving up again to buy another car and hopefully soon enough I will be driving again.
