I wanted to do running because my brother ran varsity and I as well wanted to be varsity. He once told me that I couldn’t beat his time that he got for track or cross-country. What he had said got me kind of furious and sad.
My grandfather always loved Penn State football, and would always talk about Penn State University to me when I was younger. Once I got the acceptance letter to Penn State I thought of how proud my grandfather would have been if he was alive and knew that his first granddaughter to attend college had
“Oh alright, Mr. Tate thinks I might be able to take over the station someday when he retires,” he says with a big grin and puffing out his chest like a rooster. Jem didn’t get to play football like he wanted to after that life changing night with Mr. Ewell. He healed alright but his arm was never the same. Jem ended up marrying his high school sweetheart right out of school and instead of moving into Finch Landing, he moved into Mrs. Dubose old house, which was in probate for years until
Couch Carter pushed the boys to be there best and to be the best they had to learn to run a whole game so carter made them to running all the time. If they came to training late he would make them do 1000 suicides and if they said they “N” word they would have to do the same. Doing the suicides made them fit and they could run a whole game and they started winning. Another way carter inspired the boys was with determination they studied then though the gym was unlocked and coach carter retired from coaching because the parents didn’t want him to coach anymore but the players wanted him to be there coach so he coached they team again so it was like he never
All of his dreams were shattered and he was trying to cope with just being an everyday person without known fame The Playoff game was based on racism. It was sad that after they had the coin toss that it had to be in a neutral place because they were scared of what the Carter Cowboys fans were gone do since the Permian Panthers were predominately white. The next year Coach Gaines led the undefeated Permian Panthers to the state playoff. He had won is confidence back from the

I didn’t mind paying the 1,250 dollars to send him there for six years. For Junior’s seventh birthday he wanted a bicycle, so two weeks before his birthday he gets his first bicycle. It was a red bicycle that had black and white words but you could not get away without buying the matching helmet and pads. Junior began to act out at age 12 he was a disobedient child and determined to harm him others; I didn’t know how to control him, so I made my husband write the check to send him to he Columbia Military Academy and he finished his high school education there. They really did help him he ended up graduating top of his class.
One would say that Lennie didn’t have to kill her, but then again, Lennie did not understand the situation or what was happening. One would also say that he did not have to take things that far but all he wanted to do was make her stop yelling at him. “Now don’t, I don’t want you to yell. You gonna get me in trouble,” is what he told her because all he wanted was for her to stay quiet (Steinbeck 91). He didn’t mean to kill her, but since Lennie does not understand certain things, he also does not know his own strength.
My dad & mom were in JROTC and the said it would be good for me to be in. They said that I will grow a understanding of the military and they said it was fun to be a part of something a little bit bigger than just going to school. In JROTC I made a many friends and I have some type of plan for my future in life. There are some benefits for joining JROTC. There are many reasons I like taking it.
This past weekend I was able to take a trip out to Charlottesville Va to see the Monticello which is the home of Thomas Jefferson. I had a wonderful time there and I loved all of the views that you get of the great mountain sides inside the house. I took a trip out there to see my old high school football team play in the State Championship game. It’s a little expensive to see the house, it cost us 17 dollars a piece to get a tour of the beautiful place, and it was well worth every penny. The whole place is great from the welcome center, Shops and the Monticello it’s self.
