Memoir

 
                   It was early in the morning. My dad and I were driving to the airport to go to Tennessee. 

We were going there to watch our favorite football team -the California Golden Bears. We were 

a little late and were running to catch our plane. I was about six at the time and could not run 

very fast, but did what I could. We ended up making it through security and making our flight, 

but just barely. We were staying in a nice hotel and had really great seats. It was just the two of 

us and it was so much fun. That was not my first football game but one that was very special to 

me. The game was during the sunset of summer, and I could hear shouts and screaming. That 

marked the beginning of one of my favorite memories with my dad. 

 My dad is 6'4" and probably 180 pounds. He is super funny, but really stubborn. I think his 

stubbornness comes from my grandma. He is probably the most stubborn person on the face of 

the earth. He had to sit in a certain row so that he could easily get to food or the bathroom, so 

that he doesn't miss a big part of the game. He is also always pretty funny. He always makes a 

joke about the other team, or a cheesy joke about the food or bathrooms, but I always laugh. He 

is also really nice. We always get whatever we need for anything. 

 I love my dad. He is the best possible dad I could ever ask for. He and I have many 

special connections. We both love sports like it is our children. We watch games and have our 

own opinions. He is also super nice and supportive in whatever I do. This is why I chose my dad 

for my memoir.

Aaron Rodgers is my hero. He is an amazing football player on the field and an even better person off the field. This year he is up for the Walter Payton Best Man Award. He helps raise awareness for the Salvation Army, Hope for Congo, and even Children's Pediatric Cancer. He often visits local hospitals and is great to all people. He is a real role model and hero for me. He is magical on the field and even more magical off the field.

Mirrors by Marshall

When you look in a mirror you see your true self. But really it is not the looks it is what is on the inside That's what really counts.

That is why I don't typically like mirrors. Also because everyone poses in front of them And to what make your self look pretty? No that is just not right If that is what the creators of the mirror were thinking Then he must be dumb
