Middle School

Middle School

When I first went to East Middle I was so nervous. There were a lot of kids, but I took my friend Brad to school on the first day so I was not alone. I was nervous in class because I was not with any of my friends from elementary school. I was a chubby kid; I was fat I would say. I never played any sports up to that day but after school my friend and I were riding bikes and my mom found me and said football practice starts today. I wanted to play football but I never played before. So I went to practice and that was alright, I always wanted to play football.

We did a lot of running drills to see if we were fast and stuff while the coaches were watching us. I was a 5’5 160lbs kid who was pretty fat then, but I was faster than most of the other kids. The next day Rulin, a kid from my team, asked if I was the fast linemen? I said yeah; that was the first time I had ever talked to Rulin.

Going out for football was the best thing for me because it got me to meet new people and got me to work out. Classes were boring but I still learned a lot. I wish I tried harder but at least I never faild a class. There were some nice teacher, but I never really talked to them or have contact with any of them now, but it was so much fun.
