In my 7th grade year I experienced a lot of things that were negative and positive but overall it was a great experience. In my 7th grade year I had a lot of negative things happened like I fractured my leg, was behind on a lot of work, and almost failed some classes. These obstacles were really hard to overcome but I overcame them all differently. For example, for my fractured leg I couldn't do anything but wait for it to heal and it didn’t allow me to play most of the football season. The most difficult obstacle was when I was behind on work for many classes, it was very difficult because I had around 30 missing assignments and at the same time I was getting even more work. This was very difficult for me, and it took me about a whole week of just working on assignments to get all of them done and catch up on my classes. Another obstacle was almost failing my classes. This affected me a lot because it was putting a lot of stress on me and I was getting my phone taken away at the same time which helped me get work done but at the same time it didn't. Even tho a lot of negative things happened, a lot of positive things happened like, I played a basketball season as a starter for the first time, I finally squatted my max weight for ten reps, made a lot of new friends, gained a lot of trust from my coaches which was a goal of mine. These positive things made my whole year way better and a way better experience for me and I am very happy about this year and hope that my 8th grade year will be better.
