“It’s not over until it’s over. You want to be a champion, you have to think that way, in everything you do. You never stop.” I was hurt playing football like when I got a concussion and messed my knee up for a few weeks. But did I quit? No, I didn’t give up. How did you get your character to have multiple of the same traits as me and teach me so many lessons in life. I was mad by the way your characters aunt and uncle treated him because I know that some people have to deal with the same things on the daily. I was furious at how his classmates treated him when they would mock him because of his shoes and glasses. I have been picked on for not wearing my new shoes or when I get made fun of because of my glasses. I have been made fun of for …show more content…
I have fond memories that i think of when I think of my family. I usually think of vacations and holidays like christmas and thanksgiving. It made me kind of happy when the deal with Lucy got him the things he wanted. I have got a way or lucked out and got to go to something before. I know that a lot of people never get to have extra things like vacations and parties for birthdays. I also know lots of kids don’t have loving families. I respect Coach V and anyone who tries to help kids when they are made fun of. I also was helped by coaches when they would give me advice to improve like Ty did. I respect Coach V’s generosity when he talked with Ty. I have made mistakes and gone to far and coaches have helped me with it. I have been bullied many times and sometimes don’t realize that I bully others. I changed when reading your book and realized that I should pay more attention to what I do and say to others. I have taken in many lessons from your book. I finished your book and now I am more determined and have become more positive, and I’ve learned to never give up hope. I learned to get back up and not stay down after getting knocked down, not just in football, but in life. Thanks to you Tim Green. Thank you for writing this

There is no denying that people consider me a decent player, but that doesn’t mean that I’m the best. There is a vast amount of better players that are even younger than me training to the maximum of their capabilities. I discovered something new, and my drive to become a better player and person came with it. The sport has taught me that not everything will always be what I initially expected, but that shouldn’t stop me from reaching my goals. For example, my team and I had won three consecutive district titles for our school.
America is one of the richest and safest place in the whole wide world. I was born in Egypt and came to California when I was 10 years old, I love it here. The reason I came to America was because of safety, but now that a lot of people have weapons it 's not as safe anymore. We should make a law about limiting people’s weapons and only people who actually need it shall have it.
Francis had to experience many different things when moving to America. Any person from another country that speaks a different language would have trouble in a new place. I am going to tell you about the changes you have to make to come in a different placed. The hardest thing to get used to is the language; everything is more difficult when you don’t know the language. Even to get a job is harder you might not know what your boss is asking and get fired.
Moving to America took a huge toll on my family. My mom had to leave her husband behind, and move to a whole new country to raise her two children as a single mother. She had to leave her job, her friends, and her family to once again become a full-time college student. This change had an immense effect on my life. Over the last four years, I have had the extra responsibilities of taking care of my younger brother while my mom spent endless nights studying to be on top of her classes and keep her full scholarship at Broward College.
On February 19, 1998, I was born in New Albany, Mississippi. Three days after I was born, my family moved to Detroit, Michigan, which I think is kind of crazy since you are supposed to stay in the house after you are born. My family means everything and the world to me. I grew up in a typical middle class environment and live with my dad, mom, and 2 sisters in Detroit.
Personal Narrative Tackle football at Waterford Sabercats was hard for me when I first started. The first week was running non stop and it wore me out. “You are almost done,” I remember my dad telling me when we were doing an exhausting dill. But as the week progressed, I got used to the conditioning, but it still hurt.
If only people could realize how bullying takes a toll on a person’s life, then we will know the reason why people bully, short and long term effects of bullying, and how bullying promotes a victims
Introduction: Who Am I? Every person in the world has come to be where they are in a different way. Each possesses different traits and characteristics that influence how their lives will carry out. These different characteristics make up an individual’s social location.
Moving is a burden that has profoundly altered my outlook on things. Going back a few years, I moved to the United States, which meant I’d have to be placed in a new school. This transition was truly and utterly difficult for me, because it happened in the middle of the school year and I was not ready for what was about to be thrown my way. I was scared out of my mind, it felt as if the walls were crumbling down on me and I had no escape route.
Moving to a new country can be difficult sometimes. Leaving all my relatives and friends back home was the saddest thing for me. My mother told me that we were moving to a new country. At first, I thought my mother was joking about it. but little did I know that she was telling the truth.
When I was younger I was a great football player. Everyone knew who I was because I was so fast and quick. It was like I was a god how everyone was calling my name as soon as I got in the gate. I was so good that even the other teams knew who I was not saying they liked me but they know what I’m made of.
Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve been made fun of, or heard someone else being made fun of? I am sure the answer to that question is yes. Or maybe, you’ve insulted someone else without realizing the true meaning behind it? Ultimately, this is because language is more powerful than we think. Words and language can be used as weapons, and it may be hard for people to understand that certain words can be thought of as insulting to someone else but may not seem that way towards you.
Critical analysis of push and pull factors of migration and with Also gendered migration Throughout human history migration has been part of human life.
