May 20‚ 2007 and it was sunny outside and my parents told me that we were going to have a picnic in Ed Levin Park with my cousins the other day and I felt happy that I would get to play with them and dressed up. I wore a white shirt with a logo on it with shorts and a grey jacket with my mom and dad wearing similar things to what I was wearing but my dad was wearing jeans. My dad was tall and had brown eyes and hair like my mom but she was short. It took about 10 minutes to get there because it was

As I rolled over to shut off the blaring sound that came from my IPod‚ I realized what day it was and fell off the bed in a moment of pure excitement. I was getting my braces on today‚ and I couldn’t wait until they were on. I lay on the floor‚ thinking about how “amazingly awesome” this would be‚ and I was snapped out of my thoughts as I heard my mom. “GET OUT OF BED RIGHT NOW OR YOU WILL BE LATE AGAIN!” she yelled. And I yelled right back “OK OK IM COMING!” Normally I would’ve argued for a few

problems with my knee. It all started back in middle school‚ when we were playing basketball in our math class. My teacher at the time‚ Mr. Siem‚ would play with us. On this particular day‚ we were on opposing teams and he was bringing down the ball. When I went to defend him‚ he never stopped and he ran into me. His knee landed on mine with all of his weight. I knew right away that something was wrong. I was unable to walk and thus was carried to the office. There I waited for my dad to come and

I felt like I totally failed at life‚ like there was nothing at all that I could do about it. I was always getting so hurt but not by others.. by myself. WIth my disease my life was such a struggle getting sick every single day losing so much weight until a feather weighed more than me.

box and stored away. My teacher read interesting books to my class. She would take two weeks to read a 500 page book. I enjoyed cuddling up next to watch each expression she expressed. Every couple of months my teacher set up blanket forts and let us read independently all day long. We’d read beside the light of a lamp and bring our own pillows to lay on. This was my favorite time of the year. From there‚ she let us write stories and read them aloud. My teacher helped develop my love for writing.

This is me about to divulge my story‚ so please read on reader. I believe that finding true freedom a person’s mask will fall off. I always told myself as a kid to keep the mask on or else I might get hurt. I do not really know where this type of thinking came from. The mask only came off when I was in the safety of my own room. For years‚ I stay behind my fake face waiting and watching the world in silence until the day I could take the mask off in public. I realize that taking off my mask was a

into a day that my car (Lexi the Lexus) and I almost died. On this lovely Sunday afternoon‚ some friends and I headed out to enjoy our normal Sunday Funday. Shortly after leaving the house for a drive‚ the song “Jesus‚ Take the Wheel” started playing. About ten minutes after the song we sped along about 75 mph down a blacktop back road‚ singing‚ laughing‚ living the time of our lives‚ and carrying on as normal‚ when we hit rock. After hitting rock‚ we started fishtailing for about a mile down the

There I stood with my heart racing‚ ready to run five kilometers. To everyone else‚ this was an unimportant meet that even the coach said he did not care about. It was for me‚ however‚ more terrifying than losing my mom in the grocery store when I was a child. My first meet and all I could think of was my speed or lack thereof. I did not have distance spikes. I did not have a muscle roller. All I had was my heart in my throat paired with running shoes. Since the day before‚ my blood pressure had

We jogged through the cameras‚ smoke‚ and lights to our side of the court. The other team did the same. It was time to play. We played 5 v 5‚ and I was in. Coach Jones said‚ “ JC‚ defend number 21.” Number 21 looked like he was 6 foot. He was huge. Before we knew it‚ we were losing 9-10‚ but we had the ball‚ and I was about to score a
