The school was named Greek High School. The name seemed a little generic since the island was off the coast of Greece. Justin had graduated two years ago and Jason graduated before that summer. So‚ I had to start school without having my brothers close if I needed them. This school operated differently than schools in America. They had sports that were more exciting like sword fighting‚ archery‚ horseback archery‚ martial arts‚ and horseback riding. Before the bell rang for the exciting first day

As a nearly 18 year old student‚ the best part of my days are when I have nothing scheduled. No work‚ no homework‚ no commitments. For that reason‚ I believe in a day off. Three years ago I walked through the doors of Mead High School like most incoming freshman‚ nervous‚ excited‚ and way too full of confidence. Everything had seemed to fall into place while I was in middle school. I became pretty used to the routine of school‚ friends‚ and football. Time had never really been an issue for me. After

The first day of school‚ and even more exciting‚ the first day of middle school. Sixth grade! Oh how grown up I thought I was! Unfortunately‚ though‚ my euphoria quickly dissipated. Whilst standing at the bus stop fantasizing about all of the friends I would make and the fun projects I would do‚ the other kids at the bus stop started to laugh at me and call me names.

It wasn’t too long before I realized that high school was not just a walk in the park as I anticipated and to be extra serious than what I was. Sophomore year is when I figured this all out and in my Junior year is when I flipped the script. Now I’m striving‚ working‚ and improving on my learning to graduate. In my sophomore I wasn’t doing so sound‚ in I would say the majority of my classes I did fail 2 of my classes when honestly it shouldn’t have happened. The two classes I didn’t pass were English

As I stepped outside of the car‚ I realized how nice of a day it was. It was not the hottest day of the summer. It had to be about 94 degrees‚ but there was a nice breeze that would make the practice nice. This was only the fourth day of football practice and I was so excited. Today was a defensive day and defense was my favorite. I was always early for practice‚ I had a lot of time to relax and look at film of the practices before today. It was weird today because I was the only person in the locker

couldn’t hear it‚ because I didn’t want to get up. My mom was yelling at my sister and me‚ “Get up girls it’s time to go school.” I didn’t understand why she was so excited. I miserably dragged myself out of bed; I just wanted to crawl and hide and the blanket. It was a cold day in March 1999‚ I was fourteen years old‚ and it was my first day of school in America. I was scared. My sister and I got ready‚ but we were not happy. We knew we had to go to school‚ and mom would not let us stay home. We walked

Around four months ago‚ my parents‚ sister‚ and I became U.S citizens. When I ascertained that I had become a citizen‚ I recalled a few memories from my first day in the U.S until April 2017. The event that popped out most in my memory was my first day of school in this country. I remember the time when I woke up on this chilly day of February 2012 and started to shiver as I got out of my bed. The weather of Edison was way colder than I had ever experienced in my life. I took a shower so I could
