Grant Beacon Middle School Speaks! Vol. 2
Standing Tall by Bryan Dribbling down the field, the other team is trying to get the ball away from me. The ball is my patience, my life. They try to trip me, wanting to mess me up. But as I like to say, “Nothing is going to trip me because I’m going to make a goal for my teammates.” The victory comes when I accomplish my goals, becoming what I want to be when I grow up. I want to make it to the championship, but these people keep trying to take the ball away. I am not going to let them steal my dreams, because I am Mexican and come from a country whose home does not let him give up. The championship means a lot to me. I will go to college and get a good job that pays well.
