High School Musical

I remember back in seventh grade, I signed up for wrestling because it looked cool because you could slam people to the ground. Boy I was wrong. The first day they just conditioned us until we were about to die it felt like. I wanted to just quit but my favorite quote is my favorite bull rider cody nance, “ It was either be tough or get beat up and quit and I ain't never had much quit in me.” I wasn't about to get beat up and quit I signed up for it i'm going to do it. So I did. It was the first…

year is freshman year and the new girl is always me. I have attended 11 different schools in my educational career, while the average high schooler has attended 3; has grown up with the same group of kids, and has experienced the privilege of educational and social stability as they got used to the rules and standards in their school district. I have not had that privilege, in fact, I have never been to the same school two years in a row. Looking back at the hundreds of kids I must have met, I…

Starting high school is tough. It’s a big transition from having it doesn’t matter if you fail a class in middle school to it’s the end of the world if you don’t get enough credits to graduate. When you start as a freshman, the years go by fast let me tell you. With meeting all the people, to cool classes with new friends, to lunch. The days go by fast other than the fact you feel the classes that you hate go by slow. Your high school years are going to be hopefully good years that you will…

worry about impressing people at school or putting on a fake smile. Instead, I get to surround myself with people of choice. It’s always a competition at school. People are constantly fighting for friendships and popularity. Shouldn’t school be a place where you learn new things and not have drama? You would think that, but it’s the exact opposite. Too many people are worried about who’s dressed best or who sits at the popular lunch table. I wish that I could go to school not worried about…

Growing up in Youngstown, Ohio I had the pleasure of living in a diverse community. I personally have never really felt uncomfortable to communicate with another person, no matter the race, gender, or religion that are. I believe that growing up in Youngstown helped me by giving me the ability to communicate with people of different categories every day. The only people that I would consider to avoid is people that seem sketchy. If I notice someone that looks like they are up to no good or just…

I have been doing cheer since I was in first grade. I made the team last year and I loved it. I learned so many new thing and learned how to make myself a better cheerleader. Cheer makes me a better person. It showed me how to be a team player. Last year, one day after my read an email said to me " You should try out for the kaneland competitive cheer team." I told all my friends about it and they decided they would try out too. On the third day of tryouts I put in 110% to give myself a better…

High school is supposed to include some of the best times of our lives. There are the students who slack off and waste their high school careers getting caught up in drugs and alcohol. Also, there are the students who work hard to impress their families and make a name for themselves. Personally, I have witnessed close relatives of mine throw their lives away because of doing drugs. I have made it my goal to overcome the temptation of drugs and alcohol. After the soccer season of my junior year,…

I was once a humble high school freshman, meek and unsuspicious. However, I was not aware: I was being watched. And when my audience approached me, my life would be forever changed. Spencer Christian Williams: a name I had heard before, but a face I could not put my finger on. He was a friend of a classmate that I joked around with in gym class: Logan. He had told me about Spencer’s make-out session with Bri Joy, the witty jokes he made, and their antics in other classes. I never asked deeper…

A lot of kids grow up wanting to be a doctor or a lawyer, but I grew up wanting to be a good football player. Football is something that caught my attention when I was very young, and my love for the game has seemed to grow stronger and stronger with every passing year. I live for the long practices and the late night games. The thrill the game gives me is unimaginable and the adrenaline rush is just as strong. With this being my senior year, I felt like I needed to prove myself to everyone,…
