Across
  1. 3. MINDEDNESS, Anyone can be you friend you just have to give them a shot.
  2. 4. HYGIENE, Dog's need their teeth brushed too.
  3. 8. That I need to be nicer to my sister.
  4. 9. Is a stupid sport that sucks.
  5. 10. When I was ten he told me I could not come back inside until I reached ten juggles. I was really mad at the time, but later when I was fourteen I would stay outside for hours at a time until I reached my goal for the day. Now I can do three hundred in a row.
  6. 11. My mother is one of the most neurotic people I have ever met. She blows everything out of proportion and faces every situation with extreme anxiety, and I inherited this quality.
  7. 13. The kind of oil that goes in my car.
  8. 14. The importance of taking them.
  9. 16. KNOT, How to tie one (even though I forgot).
  10. 17. Sometimes you just have to want it more than everyone else.
  11. 18. How to ride one without training wheels, and when I got older without hands.
  12. 19. Never change yourself to fit in with people. The right friends will accept you for who you really are.
  13. 21. What my dad taught me would be the biggest obstacle in life if I let fear control me. Watching him act with self-assurance taught to me to "fake it til you make it." When I feel anxious about taking a risk I think about what my dad would do.
Down
  1. 1. Don't argue with the ref, it never ends well.
  2. 2. Being genuine will get you much farther in life than lying. Admitting when you are wrong or made a mistake will grant you forgiveness rather than anger.
  3. 5. How to do it.
  4. 6. Not to let other's opinion of you determine your self-worth.
  5. 7. How to make them with gum.
  6. 12. He taught me to play like you are the best player on the field, and eventually you will start believing it. This mentality drove me to become a better player and work harder on and off the pitch. Believing in yourself will push you past any doubt others cast at you like some old coaches I had.
  7. 15. The reason I want to become a pilot is because he was never able to.
  8. 20. That just because I don't feel like doing something doesn't mean I don't have to do it.
