346 Words2 Pages

Chapter Eleven Upperclassman. It is what every high schooler looks forward to being. Being an upperclassman came with many new parts of school that I did not get to experience before. Prom, donkey basketball, and being one of the older kids were only a few of the ways that made junior year the best. Having the opportunity to experience these milestones with my friends kept the year filled with never ending laughter and joy. After years of my friends recruiting me, I decided to join cheer for the first time. My Friday nights were now spent on the sidelines cheering on the football team, instead of yelling from the bleachers. Cheer brought me closer to my friends. We made memories at practices, games, and on the bus rides. I enjoyed it enough
