I learned of a sport that I love, that at one point I never would have considered playing. I never imagined that I, of all people, would enjoy golf, but I was wrong. I believe that trying new things, leads to new interests…

I loved seeing who would be in my classes, I loved that I wasn’t going to receive any homework, and I loved getting a sense of what each of my teachers were going to be like.
