CNN News Chunky Paragraph

Weight Cutting

When your talents for hand-to-hand combat put food on the table and shelter overhead, the sight of your own blood usually isn’t enough to make a memory. Jim Miller remembers this particular sighting, though, because he hadn’t fought in months. In combat sports like MMA , wrestling and boxing, weight cutting is as common as heavy bags and ankle tape. The practice entails losing large amounts of weight, mostly through deliberately and aggressively dehydrating oneself, over the course of about a week. Because weight cutting shares a risk-impact chart with brain injuries and performance-enhancing drugs, it usually assumes a backseat in the safety discourse. But weight cutting is every bit as dangerous as the better-documented risks that combat sports present.

Word From the Heart Final Draft

            "Omps" yells my dad as he needs help with something or want something. Thats my special name that my dad gave me. But not every person in my family get called by their special name by their parents. But mostly when my dad needs my help he would call me "Omps" because we both have the same first name. 

              

                  The word Omps is a word that my dad came up after my aunty was watching a Korean drama show. It all start when I was 1 years old my family and I went to my grandma house for a cookout. My Aunty and I was watching a Korean drama show when my dad walk in. Then my Aunty saw a little boy name Ompyon show she yelled to my dad with laughter "Aye Ray that little boy looks like Rocky". so my dad called me Omps because it was short for the little boy Ompyon. My dad always give everyone in the family nickname because that how he likes to call people by their name.

               When I was little i never knew what "Omps" was or where it came from since i was little. So i thought that was my name because he would always call me that name but everyone else in the family cause me "Rocky". I really didn't care the word "Omps" to me because i was so little but now since I'm older the word "Omps" means a lot to me.  Sometimes when i was little he would spell the word like O -M -P - S then say "Omps" and i would feel so embarrassed  but since I'm older i don't feel embarrassed because it a special nickname from my dad because my dad means a lot to me.

                The words "Omps" is important to me because my dad gave it to me and i love my dad so much with the things we do and all the things he does for me. It is also extreme important to me because everyone else in the family has a nickname that is close to their name but mines is something that my dad came up. As my dad and I do more things we like i love that he gave me the word "Omps" because it is very important to him and to me.

         To this day and more days later on i will never forget the word "Omps" because it will stay in my heart util I die because it was a word that me and my dad shared together. Even though he barely called me "Omps" now i think when ever he calls me "Rocky" i will always think he call me "Omps". 

             

Word From the Heart Rough Draft

OMPS! BY ROCKY RAMONES c/o 2019

        The word "OMPS" was used since i was 1 years old from my dad. As i got older i got used to my dad gave me that word because he gives everyone in the family nicknames. No one in the family cause me OMPS except my daddy.

        "OMPS" as my daddy always called me. "OMPS" is a Korean word that my dad gave me because my Aunty was watching a Korean drama show and she saw a little boy name Ompyon. My aunty yelled "Aye that looks like Rocky" so my daddy called me "OMPS". Every time at home he calls me "OMPS" when he needs me to do something. Also he spells it sometimes just for fun.

           When I was still young he always used to say OMPS but i didn't know who he was calling so i just thought that was my name because he always just said it when he needs me to help him.

            
           As I get older my dad usually calls me OMPS but if he doesn't he just calls me Rocky. But since he always used to call me OMPS i thought it was part of my name. But at every party my cousins or other relatives me me Rocky but my dad will sometimes says OMPS. Not even my mom, sisters, or brother calls me OMPS only my dad so that makes me special. 


          One day when my dad and I was going to the gym i ask him how did I get the word  OMPS mean and he said "when you were young Aunty Cesa was watching a Korean Drama show and there was a little buy name Ompyon so she said that looks like me". So my dad gave me the OMPS for short of Ompyon. So since he calls me OMPS i feel special because he gives everyone a nickname that matches my name but my nickname doesn't match my name it was from a Korean Drama show that my Aunty watches.

Literally I can't stand my family for being so annoying to me but we all know that we love each other even though we say some mean things. Whether I am collecting shoes, playing basketball with friends or club team, watching WWE with my family. We still have are ups and down in life. And I still have a big dream or goal to become a NBA (National Basketball Association) player or a WWE superstar. But even though I might not be able to become one those thing as I want to be i will keep on trying because I always remember to thing that "I can do all thing".
