    He was instantly liked because of his easy going manner. He played basketball for the Iola Bulldogs. They were a Class 2A school during his last two years there. "He'd keep practices real light," said Iola's basketball coach then, Rob Stewart. "I'd get on him, and he'd give me the goofy smile." As a junior Chris averaged a triple double. This did not get him much attention. His coach mailed out copies of his box score after his first game of his senior year. He received a lot of replies. The field of interested colleges was greatly reduced because of his grades. Because of this Chris chose to go to Blinn College where he played for Coach Joe Curl. Coach Curl left and things did not go well with the new coach. Chris ended up quitting basketball before…

    Another reason that Johnson didn’t fit into the “normal” student population at Dartmouth, was the fact that she didn’t come from a socially advantaged family compared to many of the other students. She could not relate to many of the other students experiences simply because her family didn’t take exotic trips or have fancy clothing, jewels, and cars. Not only was Johnson different from other students because of her possessions and experiences, but she also had a different perspective and was used to a different way of thinking. She found it difficult to understand her government professor because she had not been exposed to that way of thinking before. Also, she at first had trouble…

    Paul has made many choices, but going to Tangerine Middle is the most important. For example, most the story is focused on soccer. If he stayed at Lake Windsor he never would have been able to play soccer. “Just let me go to Tangerine Middle… I wouldn’t be water boy there; I’d be goalie (94)”. This shows that by switching schools he could play soccer. Another example would be that if he didn’t make this choice, his self-esteem and personality would never have changed. At Tangerine Middle, he was friends with the “bad guys”. His personality got rougher and meaner and he no longer views himself as a loser or a nerd. “You mean they want to find out if I’m too bad a guy to keep there?”(298). “Kids will fear me” (298). These quotes show that Paul views himself as one of the “tough guys” now. This choice affected him like a flood affects an anthill.…
