There were some other teams and it was obvious that they had much better coaching that me and I decided that I wanted to take my training more seriously and switch to a better gym with better coaches and longer practices. I talked to my mom we decided that I could go to a new gym. I have never been the new kid before, I have never moved…

as I told her the news. We cried and just sat there talking till we calmed down, then headed back to the party at her neighbor’s house. This was the first time I’d ever moved schools, where I’d be leaving everything I had known and grown up with for the past eight years. After that first move I moved twice more in two years and switched high schools three times. Every move was hard. Just as I was making best friends it would seem that I was to transfer to a new school. Every time I got…

I remember walking in for the first time and smelling that school food that nobody liked but still ate, and seeing those blue and yellow walls that represented our school spirit.

Eventually, after all those years passed a church rented out the building and…

through the doors of my new middle school. “Ugghh, I just want to be back in Brooklyn NY, going to school with my friends not here,' I think to myself brushing away at fast pace from an 8th grader class, full of giants who made me feel like a midget. “First day and you already missed the bus, and are 20 minutes late!!” I congratulate myself in my head, shaking it in disbelief. Realizing that I might be more late if I keep walking at my current pace, I start to speed walk. “This school is huge…

Personal Narrative I’ve had struggled throughout elementary, middle schools and highschool, shaping who I am now. I encountered many roadblocks throughout these years in school and they have pushed me to what to the best of my ability. I continued to push myself through high school as I am almost finished and ready to start my new School experience in college. The people in that I have surrounded myself around have also influenced the way I work. Many of those people have had their own…
