I decided to quit for one year and focus on my grades. I moved to O’Fallon , MO to be on the Francis Howell Football Team. But that never happened because I kicked out of my apartments. It wasn't even my fault it was the neighbor always vandalised the place. And there was an upstairs neighbor that would record me all the time and take pictures of me. It was pretty creepy honestly. She was just plain weird. She called the police on me for everything too. I had at least have the cops show up once a week. This led to me being kicked out. There was nowhere for us to live in the area for me to go to Francis Howell for their football team. My mom always loved to live in New Town. So now we are. I go to Orchard Farm now. My Freshman year i'm now playing for the Orchard Farm Eagles. We didn't have the best football team. Half of the kids never played football before in their lives. Only me and five other kids that were freshmen have made Junior Varsity. Because of me grinding trying to become better and better at football it was paying off in the long run. Never give up on your dreams and always continue to do what you
