this is a picture of Marshawn lynch

Marshawn lynch has always been a role model to me because he taught me to have a why. he said before you admire all the great players look at what you have and make that great. my why or reason to play football isn't to just have a hobby, i play it because it gives me more purpose and i'm good at it. i have played football since the beginning of my second grade year and have loved and hated the entire time]]> 2020-09-09 17:01:13 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732091124 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732093570 One day I logged on Minecraft to play with one of my best buddies named Jahiem. Jahiem and I have been working on this world for a couple months and neither of us has ever beaten or come close to beating the Ender Dragon. On this particular day we made it our goal to finally beat the dragon. We got what we needed and headed off to find the end portal. Now in our 7 and 8 year old minds we thought we were the coolest and strongest players in the world. We found the end portal jumped through and we got blown away by how different it looked. This was the first time for both of us seeing it. It took us 2 hours to finally figure out that we had to destroy these crystals which were healing the dragon. Once we figured it took us another hour to finally beat the dragon and when we did it was one of the greatest moments i've had with him. We both stood there proud. We took the egg back home and displayed it into a case and called it a night.]]> 2020-09-09 17:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732093570 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732094279 The most important thing to me is my family. I chose my family because they're people who you could never replace. One of the most meanful time/stressful parts that had happen, was that my mom was diagnose with cancer. It was a very serious time. I still remeber clearly coming home from school and my mom had to talk to me. I had lots of thoughts in my head, like did I fail a class? Did I do something wrong in school? But no, my mom told me her cancer came back. My heart broke into pieces. From that day on my family decided to travel whenever we had the time. We went to many places, like for an example we went to Disney World for the first time. ]]> 2020-09-09 17:01:43 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732094279 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732094515 My 5th grade class this was the final class I was in before I moved to this place and school district. A big moment of everyone being together was putting on a class play for our parents as we worked hard to make props and scripts to teach a lesson or a story. We practiced over and over until the day we preformed it. It was amazing to see everyone's parts and props it was a big success. This meant a lot to me because everyone in this class had a big connection to me and when I left everyone was emotional. Everyone in this class helped me be successful and where I am right now. We did many things together as a class. Such as a class play, talent show, projects, learning together, and growing together. Though I no longer have contact with them anymore but, I'm very grateful to have them as my 5th grade peers and I shall remember them until the end.]]> 2020-09-09 17:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732094515 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732096272 2020-09-09 17:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732096272 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732096947 Growing up my family was small, despite all the love that was created in our big welcoming hearts. On March 15th, 2020 everything took a turn. A few days after school took a 6-month break they announced they we're getting a divorce. But of course I already knew it was coming, I couldn't act surprised. Although it was for the better, the saddest part was knowing all the love they still had for each other. Who knew that one moment could change a whole twenty five years? I remember on that day I felt so much in denial, I felt like that day was just a fever dream.
That night as I lay in bed I remember wondering if things were ever going to get better, and now I'm able to answer that, yes they do. I think things happen for the better, and this was a change of good.]]> 2020-09-09 17:02:09 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732096947 arohrbach784 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732098681 2020-09-09 17:02:27 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732098681 mketzenberg5487 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732100597 I did cheerleading for tahoma sense I was 5 and last year I finally made varsity team which i was really happy about because I worked really hard, but now i started going to south elite which is a competitive cheer team. ]]> 2020-09-09 17:02:47 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732100597 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732102703 my story]]> 2020-09-09 17:03:09 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732102703 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732103463 Something that's important to me is baseball, because it's taken me around the country, teaches me life lessons and discipline. It's given me friendships too, that will last a lifetime. Baseball, also has the opportunity to take me to college and who knows where else it's gonna take me, and who I'm going to meet on the way.  One special place where I played baseball is San Diego, where we played some of the top teams in the state, and I met people with connections that can really help me through my career... Baseball has helped with things that are outside of baseball, it helps with your anger level, because in baseball you fail a lot. The average MLB player has success 4/10 times, and even that is really good. So you get to learn to cope with your anger, and really learn to control your brain and body. Baseball to me is just one of those games that aid every section of your life outside of baseball, like temper, fear and failure. This is why Baseball is really important to me.]]> 2020-09-09 17:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732103463 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732104517 Wherever you are born has a big impact on who you are, among other things. For me, I was born in Silver Spring, Maryland. I spent the first 12 years of my life there. I made friends there, my family was there, I spent my life there. But if there is one thing that i have learned from moving all the way across the country to Washington, it's that your identity cannot be found in a place, a person, or even an idea. For so long i thought that if i ever left Maryland, i would lose my sense of self. But now i know that after a year of being away, a year of not seeing my beloved friends and family, I'll be ok. ]]> 2020-09-09 17:03:26 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732104517 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732106636 My Story
-Justin White
This is me mountain biking, on a gap jump, and I've been scared to do it for a long time, until one day at a mountain bike camp I went to. I was with my mountain bike coach and he was teaching me how to jump on a bike, he told me I was pulling up on the handlebars which is wrong, so I just weighted the bike with my body, and pre-loaded and jumped and cleared it. But that is just the table top, which has no gap. So he took me to gravy train which is full of gap jumps and are small, I hesitated before the jump so I stopped. But speed is your friend on a bike, you need speed. So I kept trying and trying, until I cleared the first gap jump which is really small. But then I did the second, then the third, until I did all but the last one and I looked at the last one and I was scared so I called it a day and haven't gone back because we haven't had the time, so I have been doing some of ATM on the mountain bike trails in Black diamond. I was proud of my achievement, and will never forget it.]]> 2020-09-09 17:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732106636 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732106644 2020-09-09 17:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732106644 arohrbach784 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732107602 This represents me because I travel a lot every year and i just love to go explore places either by mtb or with friends.]]> 2020-09-09 17:03:58 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732107602 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/732110317 I was 6 years old at the time I got my dogs.

When we were there we got to watch a short film about the USS Arizona that sunk. After watching the film we got to ride a little boat out to the memorial and look into the water and see the ship. There was a sign that told the story of how people that survived the attack and die years later of age get there earns swam down by a diver into the ship, so that they are with the ship again.

I have been playing soccer from 7 years and my favorite story from soccer is when I was running down the the left side of the field near the other team's bench, the girls were screaming because I was too close to their goal for comfort. As I should be, and a girl from the other team that had a red and white jersey was about 5 inches taller than me came sprinting at towards my right shoulder coming at me. I was still running and as she was sprinting as hard as she could at me, she hit me with full force and i go sliding down the turf on my back, I ripped my socks and laughed as the girl passes the ball back to her goalie for he to kick and she misses and I watch in utter disbelief as the ball slowly rolls into the back of the net.]]> 2020-09-10 03:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/733729220 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/733900622 this is a picture of a pc beacuse i really want one so i could try to win money off of games and having a pc is way better than a xbox or a ps4. also i want to become a streamer and a content creator and try to inspire people]]> 2020-09-10 04:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/733900622 https://padlet.com/tahomasd1/swyi7xhpia3aw9l4/wish/736390796 about 4 years ago i got my first ever pet, his name was simba after my favorite disney movies main character.
