back to school.

school is back in full swing.
so in honor of that, here is me in 7th grade.
the new teachers had to introduce ourselves with these pictures the other day.
i told the story of how i had just moved right before middle school.
i was awkward, shy, and had super cute braces.
and was trying really hard to make new friends.
well one day in gym class we were playing flag football.
this girl that was probably twice the size of me totally tackled me
and i was laying out in the middle of the field.  
i had grass in my braces, i was mortified, and was hoping and praying that my new friends would still talk to me.

well, i'm here to prove that i survived middle school and i'm going back to teach it. 

happy back to school!

  1. Haha, That is pretty amazing that you not only survived but that you actually went back. No salary could make me walk back into the walls of that vicious jungle :) The world needs more brave souls like you! You'll be great though. You'll tame those little animals like you were born to do it. Plus, you're not teaching Science or History or the subjects kids hate you for, haha.

  2. Oh. My. Gosh. I'm obsessed. Obsessed with your photo and even more obsessed with your story. I am laughing so hard. I LOVE the grass in your braces the very most. And I love you. I was TOTALLY awkward too so we would have been friends.
