Personal narrative A new school year, a new district, a new kid; this spelled the recipe for disaster in one’s social life especially my social life. Leaving all of the memories behind to make space for the new memories to come, be it good, or be it bad. Hawthorne High School, also know as my new environment for the next four years, is where I would have to restart my social life over again. I made the choice to leave for Hawthorne High for the engineering academy, knowing very well none of my friends were coming along with me. With a new school came new friends and new experiences as one might expect, but what nobody told me is that not knowing anyone is a disadvantage when it comes to school. If you have no one to help you out with your homework or your studies, school and work becomes a much more strenuous task. I had to make friends once again and me being a very shy person didn’t help my case. In PE I made a lot of friends and acquaintances there, those friends were reliable and trustworthy.

He is a very young coach, always making jokes with us and goofing around with us too despite his serious attitude that he can sometimes give us. He teaches us lessons through the stories that he shares with us and he has shown us the importance of teamwork and leadership. He trained us really hard and teaching us discipline, building a family not a team. Even after season ended we could always rely on him to be there for us, and he kept his promise, he even gets online to play some fifa or some fortnite with us. Truth be told, he was more of a dad to the family of the soccer team, he would take care of us and always wished the best for us even if he didn’t say it

    ...! How is it that I was surrounded by all these people that I knew, but did not know. I knew them by name, but knew nothing of them. For the past three years, I had isolated myself from getting to know other people. I felt so alienated and detached from my fellow classmates. As the days passed by, I wanted to go to school less and less. Even though I knew just about everyone at the school, I still felt lost and lonely. I ended up dropping out of school that year a couple times because of the awkward feelings I had attending that school.
