True Overcoming story

I've had many experiences throughout my life some big some and some small but they have all affected me and made me who I am today. An important experience i've overcome was simply being able to get all my high school academics in order to play football in college. It was a hard thing to do but I managed to overcome a tough obstacle to be able to play football in college. It was a frustrating time in my life and sometimes I wanted to quit but with help from my family and some of my teachers I got through it. My experience happened around the middle of my junior year when colleges seemed to express interest to play football. It had always been a dream of mine to play college football. After talking to my guidance counselor I learned I wasn't eligible to play because I only took college prep courses my freshmen year and not my sophomore and junior year. To be eligible I needed to go back and retake classes i've already passed. Even though I had already passed these courses once the workload was exhausting and extremely frustrating. I had to go to summer school and take extra courses during the school year. Instead of getting a half day of school my senior year like most of my friends I had to sit in 10th and 11th grade classes all day. It honestly made me feel stupid sitting in classes with 10th graders but I knew I had to do it. At times I just thought I should stop trying because I didn't feel like sitting in classes I had already taken and passed. Constant reminders from my teachers, guidance counselor and especially my parents I managed stay on task and succeed in passing all of these classes again. Them helping me and standing behind me really helped me overcome his experience. Looking back at this experience taught me to never give up and always try hard despite obstacles thrown at
