MALIK - I AM HOPEFUL ♪Music♪ Hey I’m Malik, I’m fourteen years old and in the ninth grade. [NO AUDIO] I like... Basketball. I like a lot of things about basketball. Making all the shots, but not being a ball hog. [NO AUDIO] Favorite Subject in School? My favorite subject’s math. We do- we get on the computers a lot, and I’m- I get on the computer to do Algebra I and we have different classes and the classes are- they’re fun because we don’t do as much work as I think I would do in regular school. [NO AUDIO] Three Wishes? To be better than Michael Jordan at basketball, and to be in the NBA already, for me to have one million more wishes. [NO AUDIO] Definition of Family? A person who cares. Treats you well, teaches you new things. Who doesn’t get mad at you, well they will still love you and still try to help you, even if you do something that’s not right or they didn’t like. They try to help me get better. Not kick me out the house over my first thing or if I get, like, suspended from school, like, even if it happens, like, second time. Just keep working with me until I get better at it. ♪Music♪ [NO AUDIO] I Am Hopeful For more Information about this child or other children waiting for a forever family, visit: www.OklahomaHeartGallery.com This video was made possible thanks to the following partners: Oklahoma Fosters The I Belong Project America's Kids Belong Oklahoma Heart Gallery Oklahoma Department of Human Services
