A Day In The Life A day in a life of Dwayne Johnson is something people are curious about what does he do morning, afternoon, and night. In the morning he wakes up brushes his teeth, he works out, and then he takes a shower, and then he makes breakfast for his family while they're sleeping and he wakes them up to surprise them with a nice breakfast. Usually they would surprise him but they don’t because he wouldn’t be there. Dwayne also was so kind and made his guest breakfast and that guest is me. Dwayne showed me his awards and his collection of wrestling championship belts he also showed me his car collection; it was a fair amount of cars. Dwayne recommended to check out John Cena’s car collection. It’s 12:30 in the afternoon and Dwayne is going to take me to his auditions for his movie Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.I also got to meet Kevin Hart, and Dwayne mentioned to him “I’m a new actor trying to see how a star’s life goes throughout the day”. We left to go eat pizza because that’s his favorite food but he doesn’t eat it much.
It’s 8:30 at night and we finally arrive back at Dwayne’s house as we enter, Dwayne’s kids run up to him in joy seeing him like they haven't seen him for like a year. It makes sense because he’s always busy and his kid’s barely see him throughout the week but at least his kids understands why he is not home all the time. Now it’s time for his kids to go to bed and he tells them a bedtime story and they fall asleep instantly. Then Dwayne and I talked and I asked him about his life as a kid. He mentioned he was a shy kid like me; I was rude in 9th grade and then he told me he changed ever since 10th grade. We then talked about The Rock we respect and know today, then we ended the conversation, and I told him that were almost alike. The next day I left and went back home.

I will continue raising my kids because I need them to be successful when they grow up. -3I leave my legacy of success in order to free myself from becoming a rich star eternally. I will give up my money for my kids say that they could continue my legacy. -4I hope for the world of this generation remembers me for how great and respected I was from the fans and the people,my fear is from my trust of letting go of my children, this makes me very emotional everytime time I mention them in my mind. -5I never stop trying to forget my children because I think about about them 100% of my day life. It doesn’t seem possible that my children would forget who I was and what I accomplished. I only know one thing for sure I love my kids and they love me. -6I want the world to remember me as a legend but in order to appreciate me as a legend so that people can be inspired by me, and that my children can be inspired by me. -7-
I was always comforted by my parents because they would tell me to continue my dreams, and in return I comforted my children to become a star like me. -8I will never understand why I was so respected but I have learned to respect him? and now it all makes sense now that I’m so nice and I can be very nice but sometimes a bad influence but that’s what I would do. -9My joy comes from my job and my parents. This becuase I am very respected and I’m determined to keep that for as long as I can. -10I would give anything to keep my job and my family because that’s all I would need,therefore, I am only worried about my family and myself, This is for my family and myself. -11Please understand that I am a rich man, That is why I would never return to the WWE business again and when things get better in my movie career, I will retire from WWE. -12My last and final wish is to be remembered as a legend so that people can realize I did more than becoming a star or a wrestler, and I will be known as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, and greatest movie star.
Personification The road called my name and said dream big. The sky called my name and yelled you're a star. The trees called my name and shouted live your life. The ocean called my name and silently said your the future. Dwayne’s First Championship Win
