    August tenth of 2013, is the last day I remember. For the next hundred or so days after the aforementioned one, I don’t have a clue as to how they happened. The hardest part was, perhaps, my crumbling again, anxiety like I’d never had before. But not on August tenth. The first day of a new team and the last day of supposed sanity, I distinctly remember being afraid to be left alone with the then strangers. That had become the norm for me. Eighth grade.

If there was a place I would be fond of; it would probably be a football field. This is because now that I understand the sport a bit better I feel at home playing on the field. I started a little late on football, being as my first year was my eighth grade year, and I had no idea what I was even doing; and it did not help that the coaches did not make a playbook which…

    Who would want a parrot? All that the haughty thing did was squawk and imitate my gurgling noises, a result of attempts to speak. “Shut up, Jerome,” was a phrase I’ve attempted to say many a time, without success. I must admit, though, I find it quite hilarious when little Jerome makes fun of me with the noises he makes. I cannot say as I enjoy his presence in my room, but at least the hospital gave me a pet with a good sense of humor. I swear the thing even imitates my paralyzed, contorted face…
