Narrative Essay
Just like Vince Lambardi said: “It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.” I believe that no matter how many times you get knocked down as long as you get back up you will be successful. I have gone through rough patches in my life. Last year I struggled with some of the things in life. Spring break last year I was having fun with some friends, we thought that by going on private property of another person was fun. It was fun, until the police showed up. We knew we were wrong and what we had done, but now had to face the consequences. That night I ended up getting arrested and going to jail, that night was also when i realized I had to get it together. Everyone makes mistakes, that was one of the many …show more content…
Last year I also struggled with my school classes, I never asked for help when I should have, and I almost gave up. Something finally hit me at the end of the semester and I told myself to try the best I can to get all of my grades up. I ended up passing all of my classes, and surprising all of my teachers. I am not that fond of school; however, I am trying my hardest to walk across that stage and graduate. That is a huge goal that I have for myself this year.

What is crazy is not only I have stuck with football, but most of the team I first started playing with still plays with me till this day. Not only have I gained a passion for football, I have gained some friends that will last a lifetime. I know that no matter where life takes us after we graduate we will have a bond that will never be broken. That also goes along with all of the fans and the supporters.

We have made it to state in Saint Louis two times in the past 6 years. I know that our Indians this year will continue that tradition and keep doing great things. I hope that this year we get the opportunity to go to state as well.That would give the seniors this year something to be proud of. This year our football team has the most seniors to ever play on the team. There are 30 seniors playing football this year, that is a huge number
