People have always said that high school will be the best years of my life. There are some things that happened to me during high school that I would not change for anything in the universe, such as meeting my best friend Henry for the first time in person. There are also a lot of things that happened during the past four years that I would give almost anything to change, such as who I chose to hang out with because they turned out to be different from who they portrayed to be. Due to having a bad memory, high school is most of my life that I can remember. I have really learned a lot, and I think that is what has changed me from who I was as a freshman to who I am now. Throughout high school I have learned about myself in more ways than I expected

It was something special to me and they knew it made me angry when they called me Jules. No matter how many times I asked them to stop, nicely and not so nicely asked, they continued. When Homecoming came around, they voted me on the Homecoming Court with the guy who argued with me the most. I did not mind so much because I was just excited to be on the court, even though I knew they voted for me as a joke and not because they thought I was worthy of being on the Court. As the year went on, I learned to ignore them and I started my passion for reading. I read the Divergent series and became obsessed with fandoms. Fandoms are groups of people who dedicate a large part of their lives to watching, creating fanfiction, and binge watching TV shows, books, and movies. I joined the cheer team and was on the JV team for basketball cheerleading. I began writing a book during this year. I also started playing a game called “Clash of Clans” all of the time. The game had a “World Chat” where people were randomly put into group chats depending on when you logged on. On February 6th 2014, I went onto the “World Chat” and asked if anyone wanted to message me on Kik. I realize now how unsafe that is, but if I had not done this I would have never met …show more content…
I grew up watching football, so I knew a little more than most girls. Football practices were difficult because of how much running we did. We had a drill called 666: 6 40 yards, 6 50 yards, and 6 60 yards. My lungs felt like they were closing, sticking to the other side and not opening back up for another breath. I quickly learned that I have sports induced asthma. Even though I took my inhaler before every practice, I struggled to run as much as the boys. They were already mad that I was on the team and not Jessica who played the previous two years. The boys called me Jules more and were mean that I could not run as much and needed to take my inhaler sometimes in practice. My passion for football was dimming like a dying lightbulb. More than those boys like to admit, they needed me. We only had 15 people on the team and some of the boys got injured during games. I got to play in about three plays each game and was a “dummy” in practice. The position I played was Free Safety, which means that I did not have much contact. My family members supported me, but wished I was not playing. They worried I would get injured. After losing every game except our Homecoming game, I became a part of the play and musical. I was assistant stage manager and I was in charge of the curtain, props, and helping with last minute costume. Our play was A Family Reunion to Die For, a comedy murder mystery. We performed in
