The Accident • The day before 7th grade my friend dared me to jump a semi loading ramp on my bike. I neglected to notice the metal lip at the edge and flew over the edge.

Shazam! This was our “band” in 8th grade. We thought it would be cool since most of us were in band or choir to write songs of all different genres. There were 6 of us andwe never wrote any songs – I just designed costumes and gaveeveryone a “cool” image. I was“The Rebel”.
