Personal Narrative: The First Day Of Conditioning

I asked to leave like 15 minutes early so there could be no way I could be late even if there was traffic or anything. I'm a promoted eighth grader, but I didn't really consider myself a freshman yet since i haven't started high school but also didn't consider myself an eighth grader since I am no longer in middle school and already promoted. I've been wanting to play volleyball ever since both of my sisters joined. I get out the car and i'm not sure where I'm supposed to be going so I just follow my sister.

    After watching some gameplay videos for the new ps4 game Until Dawn, I was reminded of a strange term I had once heard, the butterfly effect. Upon seeing this, I decided to do some research to find out more about it.
