12 February 2013 My First Day at Work When I was a kid‚ I couldn’t wait until I was old enough to get a job. Sure‚ it would be a good way to make friends and learn how to prepare myself for the real world‚ but for me‚ it was mostly about making my own money. Having to ask my parents for cash every time I needed some annoyed me‚ mostly because they’d always say no. Every time they did‚ I would always whine and complain about how different things would be when I had money of my own‚ how I would never

In the summer going into freshman year‚ my grandpa said to me he expected a state ring. I told him that was impossible. A freshman doesn’t get a varsity spot‚ especially with as much talent the upperclassmen have. Little did I know that anything is possible when I put my mind to it.
