Michael Korsport: A Short Story
Twelve year old Michael Korsport thought that nothing else in the entire universe would infuriate him more than his older brother, Ian Korsport. Today he was proved wrong by a group of bullies in school. First, it started off as a small joke about Michael's name without the "port" in it, but it was like the bullies couldn't stop teasing him.

    The smell of the hot dogs being grilled, there was the smell of funnel cake everywhere, you could hear so many excited screams from the people on the rides, and the sight of some kid puking in a garbage can next to the ride Déjà vu. I’m thinking this day could not get any better, but so much more ended up happening that day.

We tell him and he just starts laughing, ”Yea, I’ll do it”. So we get Schroeder into line, and Bob goes to this black kid, “Yo man, this little kid just called you the n-word,” and the black kid was half laughing and acting half angry, and Schroeder has a miniature breakdown during this, I just want to say Schroeder is a friend to me; but his reactions to these things are the funniest things I have ever seen. But back to the current event, Schroeder just bolts out of there, and we had to chase him down and tell him it was a joke, which would have been easy if we weren’t laughing so hard at this. Then we head over to the Super…

    Throughout my entire life, I have found that hard work and dedication can help me achieve any goal that I set. I have overcome the separation and lack of decent parents, incarceration of my oldest brother, and many other events with the morals and skills that were taught to me by my grandparents (who are my legal guardians). Due to their influence and love, I have always put my best foot forward and looked at the world with optimism. Since the second grade, I have been in gifted/honor courses, exceeded through my classes, and have made many friends. My backbone does not consist of selfish desires or influences; it consists of my morals and the family and friends that I do have pushing me to change the world.…
