I was part of the Glenwood Springs High School's wrestling team for all four years of high school. which I learned a lot from and not just wrestling but about self-control and about life. wrestling is all about discipline and commitment. You got to take care of your body and your mind, wrestling prepared me for my future as a person. Even though I struggled with my grades my years and prevented me from competing in events i still did my best at practice and i would give it my best when i would go to events. wrestling was my motivation to stay in school and do my best to get my grades up. It was the main reason I chose to move to Yampah. the coaches were a big part of my life; they aren't just great coaches they are great people. They motivated me in school and if I ever needed anything they would always be there. I made best friends through wrestling, and every teammate in the team were like brother to me. Every single one had my back through my ups and downs and they knew that i did too.being in the wrestling team is the thing that I will miss the most.
Birth Story
I was born at 11:49 am on April, 26 1996 in Santiago Ixcuintla, Nayarit. Early in the morning my mother started to have pain and around 10 am her water broke, then her grandma immediately took her to the hospital. They were surprised cause I was 4 weeks early. When they got to the hospital the doctor started checking on her immediately and they decide to do a C-section. After I was born my family members started showing up. I had to stay in the hospital 12 days to be checked on and my mother went home days after I was born. They would come to the hospital to check on me.

My dad’s name is Joel ordonez Sr. he is 41 years old, born in september 2nd, 1973. my mom’s name is Enedina Garcia and she is 37 years old, born in march 1st, 1977. My parents have been together for 19 years. My dad works as a cook at a school that he has been working for 13 year. My mom works at a hotel cleaning the rooms and everyday they both comes home tired and they makes food for us. Even though neither of my parents didn't do much of activities with us like camping, fishing or go on vacation every summer, they were always there for us. they worked hard to maintain me and my two little brothers. Even though we didn’t always have what we wanted, we always had what we needed. My parents are the type of people that they want us to do something they expect us to do it and do it right. My parents were born in Mexico in the state of Nayarit. Growing up they didn’t get much education due to money. So when I was born in 96’, two years later they they moved to Glenwood Spring so me and my brothers can have a better education. My parents influenced my life by teaching me to work hard for the thing I want in life and to overcome life’s obstacles.
Siblings
My little brother Angel Ordonez is the biggest goof that I know. He is 9 years old. He was born in september 29 in 2004. He is in the third grade. He is the my youngest brother. Angel is this little kid that find everything hilarious and make every situation funny, he gets annoying sometimes, but its fun to be around him. He is very active, he likes riding his bmx bike, and jumping around like a monkey. He can do a lot of things that most kids his age can’t, like climbing stuff, jumping on his bike and can do backflips and other flips. My other brother’s name is Antonio Ordonez he is 14 years old. He was born in march 16 in 2000. Antonio is a quiet kid doesn't say much but he is a nice kid and respectful. He cares about everyone and is a good student. He is fun to be around like my younger brother. He likes playing with his friends and my little brother, they always fight. Even though they are annoying and they make me mad. It seems that I have to take a lot of responsibility for them.
