My first day there I came late so the first teacher I met was Mrs Bell, she was short with dirty blonde hair but really sweet. Her classroom always smelled like fruit and she kept it organized and clean. She kept the desk in neat columns across the room with four desk in each column to the right of the desk was a sitting area with a bookshelf with lots of books, bean bag chairs and a fuzzy green carpet.

I was so happy but then again I was not very good at first but I always hustled on the floor. When I started to play basketball I made more friends on the team and I still talk to them today. We finished our season as runner up, we lost the championship game but after basketball I ran track. I did the 4x1, 4x2, and the 200 meter dash. Track was a lot of fun and I made it to county’s. The week before county’s I broke my pinky toe. When I went to the doctor they said it was no surgery I could get done to it so I had to wait for my toes to heal on it own.

    Prior to middle school, I thought I was satisfied with my position. I had friends, got along with my teachers, excelled in sports, and got decent grades in my classes. Back then, I thought this well-roundedness I sought between these necessities would offer me self-satisfaction. Little did I know, however, that I was going to confront this well-rounded nature of mine during my first awards ceremony in middle school. Among the most intelligent, artistic or athletic of the students present there, I was the one of the few who simply struggled to stand out.…

Nobody knew who I was, just a another student passing by in a school of fishes. Around the last quarter of 8th grade year, I went on the bus as usual, and said hello to my friends, but weirdly enough nobody said anything back, I felt as though I was in the twilight zone or something.…
