Quite possibly the most significant time of my life was during my senior year as part of the Edison High School football team.

Relationships My irrational dream has stopped and I am awoken by the irritating sound of my sister’s alarm clock that wakes us up for school. I tell myself “Five more minutes‚ or maybe ten. Ten sounds acceptable.” A few minutes pass and my sister sees me enjoying my extra minutes of sleep and must think‚ “I shall destroy that.” “Get up already. It’s 6:20 or something. The bus will be coming soon‚” my sister yells all the while roaming around aimlessly around our room. I respond with a grunt and

High school was an especially stressful time in both my academic life and personal life. For almost the entirety of my high school career‚ I was in a constant battle for the top spot of the class with one of my closest friends.
