    Almost Ran Over by Deer
    I walked down the trail in my forested backyard. I heard something rustling behind a bush, so I threw a rock back there. A massive buck popped up and charged straight at me. I ran as fast as my 8 year old legs could carry me, and escaped.

  • First Day of 8th Grade

    First Day of 8th Grade
    8th grade is the most important year in my life thus far for a few reasons. One is that I need to prove my self in football. Last year I played on the line, where all the low-skilled players go to get minutes. This year, my coach has me in wide receiver and outside linebacker. Another reason is I have to prove I can get straight As for another consecutive year. Last year was the first time I've ever had straight As.
