Hosea Chanchez

Chanchez: The only thing that kept me going was having faith. My grandparents and my family always supported me in whatever I did. My mom, my grandmother, my grandfather always taught me that anything that you want to do is worth working hard for.

Hosea: In real life, I spend a lot of time reading. I'm not really a party kid at all. I don't go out, I'm twenty-five, I spend most of my time when I can going back home with my family. My family is in Georgia, and I spend most of my life somehow involved in their life. Either it being telephone - we spend thousands of hours, and I used to go home once every other month, so I was on the plane six times a year, just going home from being homesick. So now, my family has been coming here. My friends, I try to invest in the people I really care for, because I don't have a lot of time right now. I've written some music, and reading. I consistently pick up books all the time. I know it sounds really boring.

Hosea Chanchez: I'm always talking about the love of my life, and that is my dog, Brando. He's a Weimaraner. I'm fascinated to talk about him all the time. He's really a genius. He's learned like sixteen commands, and he's not even six months. He's just a puppy. He's a genius, but he's also really dumb sometimes. He tried to chew through my wall. I'm like, why are you trying to chew through my wall, like, how can you be so smart and so stupid? Every command in the book, smarter than every dog, everybody compliments the dog, yadda, yadda, yadda, yadda, yadda, and he chews through a wall. I'm seeing someone special. We've been friends for a while. We're just taking it easy, and just really enjoying each other, and just trying to make the right decision.
