My full name is Art Arteaga. Art isn't short for anything and i don't even have a middle name ha.
I was born here in San Angelo, Texas at Shannon Hospital on April 11, 1989.
My major is Mathematics and I am double minoring in Kinesiology and Education with a teaching certificate.
Three words that would describe me are: 1) Athletic, because I have always been very athletic and played multiple sports. 2) Nondramatic, because I hate drama and how dramatic some people can be and I don't ever talk about other people's business because its their business, not mine. And 3) Friendly, beacuse I am a pretty friendly guy. I always try to be nice to people, especially if I just met them. The only way I'm not nice to people is if they do something to me or start making stuff up about me, and even then I usually won't be mean to them.
My mom's name is Maria Veronica Arteaga. Her maiden name is Aguilar. My dad's name is Erasto Lucio Arteaga. Everyone just calls him Art.
What motivates me to do well in life now is that I'm tired of school and I need to hurry up and finish. I also wanna make sure that I never have to depend on anyone to get by so that motivates me. I wanna be somebody in life. I don't wanna be a nobody. That is enough motivation in itself. Theres one last thing that just recently started to motivate me to get on track, my girlfriend Mandy. We had been dating for nearly four years. She moved to Houston a year ago and it got really tough hardly ever being able to see each other so we decided to take a break. I want to do better, not only in school, but in life, so we can hopefully get back together down the road when we are both out of school.
Once I graduate I want to become a high school soccer coach and a math teacher. I'll take a job at any school I can get into initially but the ultimate goal would be to get a head coaching job in either the Dallas/Fort Worth area, the San Antonio area, the Austin area, or the Houston area. And maybe if I got really good, then I could become a college soccer coach.

Reflection #1: Introduction
Hi, my name is Art Arteaga. I was born and raised right here in San Angelo, TX. My Skype username is art.arteaga10. I've changed my major 3 times, ha, but I've finally settled on Mathematics with a teaching certificate. I would like to become a high school math teacher/soccer coach cause I love soccer and I've always been told that I'm pretty good at teaching people things and helping them understand things. I tore my ACL my senior year of high school so I just stayed here at ASU for my first year instead of going to play soccer somewhere. I went to The University of Texas of the Permian Basin, UTPB, in Odessa my second year of college to play soccer. Then my parents got divorced so I just went ahead and came back home to ASU the following year and have been here since. I would really like to learn how to do all this blogging stuff and how to use all the different things we use in this class, like Windows Movie Maker. Technology has changed our process of learning so much since I was younger. We used to have to do a lot of things by hand but now theres pretty much nothing you can't find on the internet, or do on a computer, or even a cell phone for that matter now-a-days. I play pretty much every sport I can think of. If you play any intramural sports here at ASU, then theres a good chance you'll run into me. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers. I have a little puppy I got in February. He was born in December. He is a little black dachsador, which is a mix of a dachsund and a labrador retriever. He's my best bud. I work as a waiter at San Angelo Country Club, or SACC.
