A little bit about me....

...I was 13. I was in the 7th grade at Catherine Academy in Catherine, Alabama. I was playing basketball for Coach Holiday. This year I made my first two points out of six in my whole basketball career. Coach Holiday was the coach that everyone respected and loved. He always had something hilarious to say. Coach Holiday, like many coaches, taught a couple of classes.One of his classes he taught was Environmental Science, of which I was in. The most environmental thing we did in that class was the first day we talked about trees and later that year we planted trees on school grounds. The trees later were accidentally, I think, sprayed with pesticides and were killed. That's too funny. Anyway, the rest of the time in the class he had us out at the football field cleaning or some days having a free period as we called it. During this free time I started taking apart the old baseballs that weren't of use anymore to see what was inside. He knew that I liked doing this so he would gather up all of the old balls and bring them to me to take apart. The inside of it has a lot of yarn underneath the hard outer leather part then lots of rolled up yarn, and on a lucky day there would be a rubber ball in the center to play with. Also this year, there was discussions on whether Catherine would open up for another year. It did and stayed open two more years when it closed it doors. This was very influential in my life.

Didn't think you would get that much info did ya.
